Malnutrition can have a significant impact on mobility and aging, increasing the risk of falls, fractures, and other health issues  https://lnkd.in/gQzmm6SN Muscle loss: Malnutrition can lead to a loss of muscle mass and strength, which can contribute to falls and fractures. https://lnkd.in/gzA_x5RW Weakened immune system: Malnutrition can weaken the immune system, increasing the risk of infections and poor wound healing. https://lnkd.in/gBKn3P68 Decreased bone mass: Malnutrition can lead to decreased bone mass, which can contribute to falls and fractures. https://lnkd.in/gVnTk2gt Increased risk of hospitalization: Malnutrition is associated with an increased risk of hospitalization and longer length of stay. https://lnkd.in/gvUZvWwK https://lnkd.in/ghSwryWC https://lnkd.in/geWjBugz NOTE: The triumvirate of bone-supportive nutrients - calcium, vitamin D and protein Increased mortality: Malnutrition is associated with an increased risk of mortality. https://lnkd.in/gxYSxB3E A combination of physical, social, and psychological factors, such as health concerns, restricted diets, limited income, reduced social contact, depression, and alcoholism, can cause undernutriton/malnutrition. Some signs of malnutrition include low body weight, unintentional weight loss, feeling lethargic or tired, a smaller appetite, and difficulty chewing and swallowing.

🛌 Chrono-nutrition is a promising #lifestyle factor for the #prevention of #chronicdiseases. 🎓 During the International Academy of Nutrition Educators (IANE) webinar on the 22nd of August, Gerda Pot will present evidence from epidemiological studies on #chrononutrition and #health: "Diet Timing and Chronic Disease: Epidemiological Evidence of Chrono-nutrition."   ⏰ Chrono-nutrition encompasses regularity, frequency, and timing. A regular pattern with breakfast, lunch, and dinner—without snacks and consumed earlier in the day—seems beneficial for our #biologicalclock and health.   🔎 Would you like to read more about Gerda’s research? https://lnkd.in/eAXbAAdD   👉 By attending live, you will be able to ask questions.

Can You Heal Disease Through Diet? A recent study published in the journal Food Science and Nutrition found that healing disease through diet is not just a possibility, but a proven reality. The ketogenic diet (KD), known for its low-carb, high-fat composition, has gained significant attention for its therapeutic effects. Initially developed to treat epilepsy in children, the KD has expanded its benefits to various other health conditions. Today, it stands as a powerful tool in the management and improvement of numerous diseases. For More Information go to Powerflax Dot Net #healing #keto #ketodiet #powerflax #bakingmix

🍽️ Ultra-Processed Foods: Are They Harming Our Health? 🛑 A growing body of research links ultra-processed foods to an increased risk of chronic diseases, including obesity, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. These highly processed foods often lack nutritional value and are loaded with additives. As healthcare professionals, it's crucial to raise awareness of the impact of diet on long-term health and guide patients towards whole, nutrient-dense alternatives. 💡 Learn more about the health risks of ultra-processed foods.

🚀 Exciting News from #EASD2024! 🚀 Prof. Dr. Olga Ramich Pivovarova-Ramich from our DZD-Partner Deutsches Institut für Ernährungsforschung Potsdam-Rehbrücke (DIfE) is presenting at the #EASD2024 her research on “Meal Timing, Its Relation to #Metabolism, and Heritability in German Adult Twins.” Key Messages: 🕒 #Circadian caloric midpoint shows a robust association with #insulin sensitivity. ⏰ Later meal timing in relation to an individual’s internal clock is linked to lower insulin sensitivity. 🍽️ Meal timing, daily calorie distribution, and meal number show a moderate to high heritability. 🥗 Shifting main calorie intake to earlier circadian times might protect against #obesity and #diabetes, though it could be challenging due to the heritability of meal timing components. #DiabetesResearch #Nutrition
