December 2024
Background: Studies have proposed that probiotic intake may ameliorate some of the clinical components of metabolic syndrome (MetS). This study aimed to determine the effects of a new developed synbiotic yogurt containing Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus pentosus, and Chloromyces marcosianos yeast on the components of MetS in adults with MetS.
Methods: In this randomized, placebo-controlled, clinical trial, 44 participants were divided into two groups to receive 300 grams of synbiotic yogurt or regular yogurt daily for 12 weeks.
Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a pervasive disease of the current century that usually affects the adult population, especially people with diabetes and hypertension. According to the recent studies, inflammation, oxidative stress, apoptosis, and mitochondrial dysfunction are determining risk factors in the pathogenesis of CKD. Melatonin as a strong antioxidant is produced in various tissues including the kidneys.

- Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is becoming common among overweight and obese children, and this study examines how fructose and fiber intake, along with physical activity, relate to NAFLD.
- Conducted with 378 children aged 6-13, the study found that 35% had NAFLD, and while fructose intake showed no significant link to the disease, higher fiber intake from legumes and nuts was associated with a reduced risk.
- The findings suggest that while fiber could help prevent NAFLD, the exact role of physical activity remains unclear, indicating the need for further research.
Association between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and oxidative stress has been shown in numerous studies. It has been shown that probiotics could be the effective treatment strategy in improving oxidative stress. This study aimed to determine the effects of a new developed synbiotic yogurt on oxidative stress status in adults with MetS.
