A construction worker who drank four to five energy drinks every day for three weeks, was hospitalised with severe liver problems “likely” caused by excessively imbibing the seemingly harmless substance, researchers said Tuesday. The man had recently started taking four to five daily servings of “a common energy drink” to help him get through long days at work — the only change in his diet or habits, said a report in the journal BMJ Case Reports. An examination revealed the man had severe hepatitis, a type of liver inflammation, and possible liver damage.
By Lisa Rapaport (Reuters Health) – Many parents may be too busy to cook family dinners, but fighting the clock isn’t the only reason they turn to microwaveable frozen meals, a recent U.S. study suggests. “Ultimately, as a society, we need to increase affordability of healthy foods and meal planning and cooking skills training opportunities,” said lead study author Melissa Horning, a researcher at the University of Minnesota’s school of nursing in Minneapolis, “because it can be hard to make healthy dietary choices that involve cooking when the environment is filled with easy access, low-cost, prepackaged processed meals, which require little skill and effort to prepare.” The problem with prepackaged, processed meals is they tend to be high in added fats, sugar and salt, Horning said by email.

By Kathryn Doyle (Reuters Health) – In a randomized trial, people with irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D) had significant pain and symptom relief on a diet that starves gut bacteria of some of their favorite foods, according to a new study. The “low FODMAP” diet restricts foods that are high in fermentable oligo-, di- and monosaccharides and polyols (FODMAPs), short-chain carbohydrates that are poorly absorbed by the body but quickly fermented by intestinal bacteria. Fermentation produces gas and excess liquid, and may underlie the symptoms of IBS, the authors write in American Journal of Gastroenterology.
The group of experts believe a better balance of omega-3 and -6 in the diet is a more effective way of improving health than current nutrition policies, which focus on calories and energy expenditure and have “failed miserably over the past 30 years,” say Dr. Artemis Simopoulos of the Center for Genetics, Nutrition, and Health, Washington DC, and Dr. James DiNicolantonio of Saint Luke’s Mid America Heart Institute, Kansas. Recent years have seen an increased production of vegetable oils high in omega-6, such as sunflower, safflower and corn oils, and animal feeds changing from omega-3-rich grass to grain, resulting in high levels of omega-6 in the meat, eggs and dairy in the food supply for the first time in the history of human beings. Although we do also need a sufficient amount of omega-6 in the diet, human beings evolved to eat equal amounts of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids.
