Food safety and nutrition for low-income urbanites: exploring a social justice dilemma in consumption policy

Regional Environmental Change, 2019
Equitable access to healthy food is a critical challenge in urban Asia. Food safety governance promotes modern supermarkets over more traditional markets, but supermarkets are associated with unequal access to food.

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our

Toward a science-based classification of processed foods to support meaningful research and effective health policies

Frontiers in Nutrition
Processed foods have been part of the American diet for decades, with key roles in providing a safe, available, affordable, and nutritious food supply.

ASSISTANCE FOR DISASTER NUTRITION INTERVENTION THROUGH FOOD SUPPLY MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES, NUTRITION COUNSELING AND EDUCATION

Abdi Dosen : Jurnal Pengabdian Pada Masyarakat, 2023
Indonesia's geographical conditions make Indonesia a region prone to disasters, one of which is an earthquake. Cianjur Regency is one of the areas affected by an earthquake at the end of 2022. Disasters also open up opportunities for new disasters to emerge on public health status.

Obesity, Public Health, and the Food Supply [PDF]

, 2007
This Article proposes a three-part approach to improve the food supply. Specifically, it explores government taxing and spending, two traditional public health tools, and suggests that both of these governmental powers can be used to make healthier foods

Macronutrients as sources of food energy. [PDF]

, 2005
This background paper considers the extent to which the development of new recommendations for dietary energy requirements needs to account for the macronutrient (fat, carbohydrate, protein and alcohol) profiles of different diets.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

Completeness of nutrient declarations and the average nutritional composition of pre-packaged foods in Beijing, China

Preventive Medicine Reports, 2016
Increasing consumption of pre-packaged foods is likely an important driver of diet-related diseases in China. From January 2013 it became mandatory to provide a standardised nutrient declaration on pre-packaged foods in China.

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...
