Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Understanding the spectrum of drivers that influence the gut microbiome (GM) remains a crucial field of investigation. Among these factors, diet has received particular attention, as it could explain up to 20% of the variability in GM composition between individuals. This review focuses on the complex relationships between different dietary patterns and GM in humans, based on recent findings. RECENT FINDINGS Current evidence underscores the multifaceted impact of diet on GM richness, diversity, and overall composition. Key contributing factors encompass dietary habits, nutritional interventions, food quality and variety, macronutrient distribution, timing of feeding, and selective exclusion of certain foods. SUMMARY The intricate interplay between diet and GM is of fundamental importance in shaping the interaction between the host and the environment. Further understanding the causal impact of diet on GM has promising potential for the advancement of strategies to promote health and mitigate cardio-metabolic disease risks through dietary interventions.

Heliyon 2024; 10:e26564.

Abstract
Diarrhea is a severe issue in calves that causes fertility problems and economic issues worldwide. Sodium acetate/sodium butyrate (SA/SB) alleviates diarrhea in mice; however, little information is available about the preventive effect of SA/SB on diarrheic yak calves living on the Tibet plateau. Yak calves (n = 19) of age ≥4 months and weight 37 ± 2 Kg were randomly divided into control (C, n = 10) and supplement groups (S, n = 9). Yaks belonging to the supplement group were given sodium butyrate (10 g/kg) and sodium acetate (5 g/kg) for 28 days, along with normal feed, seasonal grasses, pasture, and water. The blood and fecal samples from yak calves were collected for assessment of antioxidant capacity, inflammatory cytokines, microbiome, and short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) concentration analysis. Results of this study revealed that a lower diarrhea rate, higher weight, and net weight gain were recorded in yaks belonging to group S supplemented with SA/SB. Similarly, increased antioxidant capacity with higher levels of T-AOC, SOD, and GSH-px and decreased inflammatory reactions by decreasing both TNF-α and IL-1β concentrations were recorded in yaks of group S. The concentration of SCFAs was significantly higher (p < 0.05) in yaks from group S than group C. Microbiome analysis revealed that 8 phyla and 54 genera were significantly different (p < 0.05) in both yak groups, with increased probiotics (Akkermansia, Oscillospira), SCFAs producing genera (Oscillospira, ASF356, Anaerosporobacter and Phascolarctobacterium), and decreased inflammatory related genus (Flavonifractor, Fournierella) and harmful bacteria (Oscillibacter, Achromobacter) in group S. In conclusion, the results demonstrated that SA and SB could decrease diarrhea rates in yak calves on the plateau via increasing antioxidant ability and SCFAs, while decreasing inflammatory responses in yaks by moderating gut microbiota. The current results provide new insights for the prevention and treatment of diarrhea in yaks.

Abstract
The Methionine restriction (MR) diet has been shown to delay aging and extend lifespan in various model organisms. However, the long-term effects of MR diet on the gut microbiome composition remain unclear. To study this, male mice were started on MR and control diet regimens at 6 months and continued until 22 months of age. MR mice have reduced body weight, fat mass percentage, and bone mineral density while having increased lean mass percentage. MR mice also have increased insulin sensitivity along with increasing indirect calorimetry markers such as energy expenditure, oxygen consumption, carbon dioxide production, and glucose oxidation. Fecal samples were collected at 1 week, 18 weeks, and 57 weeks after the diet onset for 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing to study the gut microbiome composition. Alpha and beta diversity metrics detected changes occurring due to the timepoint variable, but no changes were detected due to the diet variable. The results from LEfSe analysis surprisingly showed that more bacterial taxa changes were linked to age rather than diet. Interestingly, we found that the long-term MR diet feeding induced smaller changes compared to short-term feeding. Specific taxa changes due to the diet were observed at the 1 or 18-week time points, including Ileibacterium, Odoribacter, Lachnoclostridium, Marinifilaceae, and Lactobacillaceae. Furthermore, there were consistent aging-associated changes across both groups, with an increase in Ileibacterium and Erysipelotrichaceae with age, while Eubacterium_coprostanoligenes_group, Ruminococcaceae, Peptococcaceae, and Peptococcus decreased with age.

Delgado A, Gonçalves S, Romano A. Mediterranean Diet: The Role of Phenolic Compounds from Aromatic Plant Foods. Foods 2023; 12:foods12040840. [PMID: 36832914 PMCID: PMC9957056 DOI: 10.3390/foods12040840] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2023] [Revised: 02/07/2023] [Accepted: 02/13/2023] [Indexed: 02/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Today's global food system aggravates climate change while failing in meeting SDG2 and more. Yet, some sustainable food cultures, such as the Mediterranean Diet (MD), are simultaneously safe, healthy, and rooted in biodiversity. Their wide range of fruits, herbs, and vegetables convey many bioactive compounds, often associated with colour, texture, and aroma. Phenolic compounds are largely responsible for such features of MD's foods. These plant secondary metabolites all share in vitro bioactivities (e.g., antioxidants), and some are evidenced in vivo (e.g., plant sterols lower cholesterol levels in blood). The present work examines the role of polyphenols in the MD, with respect to human and planetary health. Since the commercial interest in polyphenols is increasing, a strategy for the sustainable exploitation of Mediterranean plants is essential in preserving species at risk while valuing local cultivars (e.g., through the geographical indication mechanism). Finally, the linkage of food habits with cultural landscapes, a cornerstone of the MD, should enable awareness-raising about seasonality, endemism, and other natural constraints to ensure the sustainable exploitation of Mediterranean plants.
