Does low-energy sweetener consumption affect energy intake and body weight? A systematic review, including meta-analyses, of the evidence from human and animal studies [PDF]
, 2015 By reducing energy density, low-energy sweeteners (LES) might be expected to reduce energy intake (EI) and body weight (BW). To assess the totality of the evidence testing the null hypothesis that LES exposure (versus sugars or unsweetened alternatives ...

Residual Aluminium in Water Intended for Human Consumption
Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports, 2019 Aluminium is one of the environmental factors that may have an impact on Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. Some epidemiological studies show a relationship between the concentration of aluminium in drinking water and the incidence of Alzheimer’s disease. The article presents and discusses the results of research on the effect of the type and dose of

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.
