Background: Fermented foods are attracting increasing interest due to their nutritional and health benefits, including a positive impact on gut microbiota exerted by their associated microbes. However, information relative to traditional fermented dairy products, along with their autochthonous microbiota, is still fragmented and poorly standardized. Therefore, our aim was to collect and aggregate data useful for obtaining a comprehensive overview translated in a classical database interface that can be easily handled by users.

- The study looked at how a low glycemic index Mediterranean diet (LGIMD) combined with exercise (CEP) affects metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD).
- 54 participants were monitored over 12 months, and results showed that adherence to the diet and exercise significantly influenced body mass index (BMI) and insulin resistance indicators.
- The findings indicate that LGIMD/CEP not only improved MAFLD outcomes but also suggested that BMI and insulin resistance are strong predictors of recovery from the disease.
Article Synopsis
- Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasingly common and influenced by the gut-liver axis, with gut microbiota playing a role in its onset and progression.
- Researchers studied 109 NAFLD patients undergoing various lifestyle interventions, including different diets and exercise programs, to analyze changes in gut microbiota.
- Results showed significant differences in microbiota, particularly with combined Mediterranean diets and physical activity, and highlighted specific microbial taxa associated with liver health improvement.
Dietary behaviour is a core element in diabetes self-management. There are no remarkable differences between nutritional guidelines for people with type 2 diabetes and healthy eating recommendations for the general public. This study aimed to evaluate dietary differences between subjects with and without diabetes and to describe any emerging dietary patterns characterizing diabetic subjects.

We aimed to study the association of lifestyle, as measured by a modified World Cancer Research Fund/American Institute for Cancer Research (mWCRF/AICR) scoring system with all-cause, digestive system disease-related (DSD-related), cardiovascular disease-related (CVD-related), cancer-related and other cause-related mortality using data from two population-based cohort studies conducted in Southern Italy.
