Cystic fibrosis (CF) increases risk for undernutrition and malabsorption. Individuals with CF traditionally have been counseled to consume a high-fat diet. However, a new era of CF care has increased lifespan and decreased symptoms in many individuals with CF, necessitating a re-examination of the high-fat CF legacy diet. A literature search was conducted of Medline (Ovid), Embase, and CINAHL (EBSCO) databases to identify articles published from January 2002 to May 2018 in the English language examining the relationships between dietary macronutrient distribution and nutrition outcomes in individuals with CF. Articles were screened, risk of bias was assessed, data were synthesized narratively, and each outcome was graded for certainty of evidence. The databases search retrieved 2,519 articles, and 7 cross-sectional articles were included in the final narrative analysis. Three studies examined pediatric participants and 4 examined adults. None of the included studies reported on outcomes of mortality or quality of life. Very low certainty evidence described no apparent relationship between dietary macronutrient distribution and lung function, anthropometric measures, or lipid profile in individuals with CF. The current systematic review demonstrates wide ranges in the dietary macronutrient intakes of individuals with CF with little to no demonstrable relationship between macronutrient distribution and nutrition-related outcomes. No evidence is presented to substantiate an outcomes-related benefit to a higher fat-diet except in the context of achieving higher energy intakes in a lesser volume of food.

The utilization of exogenous fiber-degrading enzymes in commercial swine diets is a strategy to increase the nutrient and energy density of poorly digestible ingredients. In a prior set of studies, dietary multienzyme blend (MEblend) supplementation increased the apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of nutrients, non-starch polysaccharides, and energy in complete high-fibrous gestation diets by 6% when fed to gestating sows. The current study aimed to determine the effects of MEblend (containing xylanase, β-glucanase, cellulase, amylase, protease, pectinase, and invertase activities) supplementation on ATTD of energy and nutrients of individual feedstuffs commonly used in gestating sow diets across major pork-producing regions worldwide, which differ in their fibrous components.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the effects of oral semaglutide on the changes in food preference of Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes.
Methods: This retrospective multicenter study included 75 patients with type 2 diabetes who received oral semaglutide. The primary outcome was the change in the score of brief-type self-administered diet history questionnaire (BDHQ) score 3 months after the initiation of oral semaglutide treatment.

Unlabelled: Dietary acid load could be associated with bone mass, but there are limited and conflicting results. This secondary cross-sectional analysis evaluated these associations among 123 children/adolescents, mostly Hispanics. Dietary acid load seems to be associated with bone mass in boys, but these results should be confirmed through long-term studies.

For instance, due to existing regulatory gaps, certain pharmaceutical entities commit violations of regulatory requirements, such as failing to register medicinal products and selling them under the guise of dietary and/or food supplements. Conversely, physicians may recommend ordinary dietary and food supplements to patients as if they were medicinal products.

In recent years, changes in dietary patterns from an omnivore diet to a moderate-to-restrictive diet that includes more plant food are becoming popular for various reasons and the associated health benefits. Despite the increased consumption of plant food as recommended by these seemingly healthy diets, micronutrient deficiency is still prevalent particularly among the health-conscious populations. The aim of this review is to help guide interventions by understanding micronutrient deficiency trends from a dietary habit and plant physiology context.
