News outlets quickly spread the word, warning that drinking two or more artificially sweetened drinks each day can increase the risk of experiencing stroke, heart attack, or even an early death. | | | | |  Following a Mediterranean diet may improve cognitive function in people living with diabetes, according to a US study that tracked almost 1000 diets over a two-year period. The Mediterranean diet incorporates foods traditionally eaten in countries bordering Mediterranean Sea, including France, Greece, Italy, and Spain, but the exact contents of the diets traditionally followed in these countries may vary. | | | | |  Adults consuming whole grain rye have lower plasma serotonin levels than people eating low-fiber wheat bread, according to a recent study by the University of Eastern Finland and the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). In the study, the consumption of cereal fiber from rye or wheat was also found to reduce serotonin levels in the colon of mice. | | | | |  A new study from the University of Eastern Finland shows that a moderately high intake of dietary cholesterol or consumption of up to one egg per day is not associated with an elevated risk of stroke. Furthermore, no association was found in carriers of the APOE4 phenotype, which affects cholesterol metabolism and is remarkably common among the Finnish population. The findings were published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. | | | | |  There has been anecdotal evidence that coffee drinkers swear by their morning cup for normal morning bowel movements. A new study from researchers in Texas has shown that coffee indeed helps in bowel movements and also improves the gut microbe population. The study was presented at the Digestive Disease Week® (DDW) 2019 by the researchers. Notable finding of this study was the effects of coffee on gut bacteria as well as on bowel movements are not associated with caffeine content of the beverage. | |
