Ventilatory Function in Young Adults and Dietary Antioxidant Intake
Dietary antioxidants may protect against poor ventilatory function. We assessed the relation between ventilatory function and antioxidant components of diet in young Chileans. Forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), and the ratio FEV1/FVC were measured in 1232 adults aged 22-28 years, using a Vitalograph device. Dietary intake was ascertained with a food frequency q...
متن کاملDietary Intake of Flavonoids and Ventilatory Function in European Adults: A GA2LEN Study
BACKGROUND Flavonoids exert anti-inflammatory properties and modulate oxidative stress in vitro, suggesting a protective effect on lung function, but epidemiological studies examining this association are scarce. METHODS A stratified random sample was drawn from the GA²LEN screening survey, in which 55,000 adults aged 15 to 75 answered a questionnaire on respiratory symptoms. Post-bronchodila...
متن کاملDietary Fiber Intake in Young Adults and Breast Cancer Risk.
OBJECTIVE We evaluated fiber intake during adolescence and early adulthood in relation to breast cancer (BC) risk in the Nurses' Health Study II. METHODS Among 90,534 premenopausal women who completed a dietary questionnaire in 1991, we documented 2833 invasive BC cases during 20 years of follow-up. In 1998, 44,263 of these women also completed a questionnaire about their diet during high sch...
متن کاملAntioxidant intake, GSTM1 polymorphism and pulmonary function in healthy young adults.
Dietary antioxidants may protect lung tissue against reactive oxygen species-induced injury, adverse respiratory effects and reduced pulmonary function. Genetic variability in antioxidant enzymes also determines response to oxidative stress in the lung. The current authors evaluated whether lung function levels are associated with dietary intake of antioxidants and the glutathione S-transferase...
متن کاملDietary Iron Intake in Relation to Nutritional Anaemia Among Young Iranian Boys and Girls.
Fifty young students, 39 females and 21 males with the Mean ages of 19 - 23 years, were studied to determine if hemoglobin and serum iron differences existed between the two groups and if so whether they were due to dissimilar nutrient intakes. Each subject kept a four day dietary diary and provided a fasting blood sample on the last day of the diary recording. The energy , protein and iron int...
