Obesity and Natural Products: Mechanisms, Therapeutic Potential, and Future Directions

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Natural products such as EGCG, berberine, curcumin, and capsaicin modulate key metabolic pathways including AMPK activation, adipogenesis inhibition, and inflammatory signaling. While clinical trials demonstrate modest benefits on body weight and metabolic parameters, translational challenges related to bioavailability, dose feasibility, and regulatory

Physicochemical, Functional, Sensory Properties and Willingness to Consume Porridge Made From Composite Flours of Maize, Soybean, and Ripe Plantain

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study aims to enhance the nutritional quality of maize porridge, a popular meal in many developing countries, by adding soybean and ripe plantain flours which are rich in protein and β‐carotene, respectively. The addition of soybean and ripe plantain to form composite flour did not affect water binding, swelling power, and viscosity compared to ...

The Relationship Between Dietary Inflammatory Index and Intermediate‐to‐High‐Risk Cardiovascular‐Kidney‐Metabolic Syndrome and All‐Cause Mortality: The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999–2018: A Cross‐Sectional and Prospective Cohort Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The dietary inflammatory index (DII) score quantifies the inflammatory potential of an individual's diet and may be associated with cardiovascular–kidney–metabolic syndrome (CKM) and mortality risk. However, evidence on the relationship between DII and intermediate‐to‐high‐risk cardiovascular–kidney–metabolic syndrome (IH–CKM) is ...

Move beyond free radical theory of aging

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
Free radicals play a dual, dose‐dependent role in aging. Low levels activate the key sensor adenosine 5'‐monophosphate‐activated protein kinase (AMPK), promoting cell survival mechanisms like autophagy and enhancing mitochondrial health. High levels, however, push AMPK to initiate cell death pathways, such as apoptosis. This positions AMPK as a central
