“…Fish and fish oils have been associated with various health benefits against numerous NCDs, including CVD and cancer [146][147][148][149]. Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), namely eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) from fish, other marine sources, and supplements, have been shown to be anti-inflammatory through several cellular mechanisms, including their incorporation into cellular membranes and resulting altered synthesis of eicosanoids [146,147].…”

COVID-19: The Inflammation Link and the Role of Nutrition in Potential Mitigation

The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has engulfed the world, affecting more than 180 countries. As a result, there has been considerable economic distress globally and a significant loss of life. Sadly, the vulnerable and immunocompromised in our societies seem to be more susceptible to severe COVID-19 complications. Global public health bodies and governments have ignited strategies and issued advisories on various handwashing and hygiene guidelines, social distancing strategies, and, in the most extreme cases, some countries have adopted “stay in place” or lockdown protocols to prevent COVID-19 spread. Notably, there are several significant risk factors for severe COVID-19 infection. These include the presence of poor nutritional status and pre-existing noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) such as diabetes mellitus, chronic lung diseases, cardiovascular diseases (CVD), obesity, and various other diseases that render the patient immunocompromised. These diseases are characterized by systemic inflammation, which may be a common feature of these NCDs, affecting patient outcomes against COVID-19. In this review, we discuss some of the anti-inflammatory therapies that are currently under investigation intended to dampen the cytokine storm of severe COVID-19 infections. Furthermore, nutritional status and the role of diet and lifestyle is considered, as it is known to affect patient outcomes in other severe infections and may play a role in COVID-19 infection. This review speculates the importance of nutrition as a mitigation strategy to support immune function amid the COVID-19 pandemic, identifying food groups and key nutrients of importance that may affect the outcomes of respiratory infections.

“…The marine environment is the most studied system for MP contamination, and sea products (e.g., wild animal species, algae, sea salts) [ 118 ] are one of the primary sources of food for humans [ 119 ]. Consequently, several studies have investigated microplastic occurrence and abundance in marine species, expressing MP concentration as the number of particles/g or particles/individual [ 120 , 121 , 122 , 123 , 124 , 125 , 126 , 127 , 128 , 129 , 130 , 131 , 132 , 133 , 134 , 135 , 136 , 137 , 138 ].…”

Recently, studies on microplastics (MPs) have increased rapidly due to the growing awareness of the potential health risks related to their occurrence. The first part of this review is devoted to MP occurrence, distribution, and quantification. MPs can be transferred from the environment to humans mainly through inhalation, secondly from ingestion, and, to a lesser extent, through dermal contact. As regards food web contamination, we discuss the microplastic presence not only in the most investigated sources, such as seafood, drinking water, and salts, but also in other foods such as honey, sugar, milk, fruit, and meat (chickens, cows, and pigs). All literature data suggest not-negligible human exposure to MPs through the above-mentioned routes. Consequently, several research efforts have been devoted to assessing potential human health risks. Initially, toxicological studies were conducted with aquatic organisms and then with experimental mammal animal models and human cell cultures. In the latter case, toxicological effects were observed at high concentrations of MPs (polystyrene is the most common MP benchmark) for a short time. Further studies must be performed to assess the real consequences of MP contamination at low concentrations and prolonged exposure.

“…De esta manera, el pescado contiene una variedad de nutrientes esenciales que pueden contribuir a múltiples beneficios para la salud del hombre porque reduce los riesgos cardiovasculares (Alhassan et al, 2017), ictus (Zhao et al, 2019), infarto de miocardio (Jayedi et al, 2019), contribuye también al menor desarrollo de cáncer oral (Hu et al, 2019). Es decir el incremento de 20g/d (aproximadamente una ración por semana) podría disminuir el riesgo de mortalidad por enfermedad coronaria, cardiovascular, accidente cerebrovascular, infarto de miocardio, síndrome coronario agudo, insuficiencia cardiaca, cáncer gastrointestinal, síndrome metabólico, demencia y enfermedad de Alzheimer ( (Li et al, 2020), pero este dependerá del tipo de pescado a consumir.…”

Prochilodus nigricans (Osteichthyes: Prochilodontidae) es un pez muy conocido en la Amazonía Peruana como “Boquichico”, de tamaño mediano y carne agradable, su consumo es tradicional y básico para la alimentación de la población; sin embargo, existen algunos factores socioeconómicos que permiten que las personas puedan consumir o no. El objetivo es determinar los factores que determinan el consumo en la ciudad de Pucallpa, que corresponde a un trabajo explicativo de corte transversal. Se realizó 385 encuestas. El análisis de los datos se realizó a través de la estimación de un modelo logit (regresión logística). Los resultados muestran que, de los siete factores considerados como el nivel de ingreso, edad, género, nivel de educación, carga familiar, ocupación e idioma, solo el ingreso familiar (P-value = 0.000) y el nivel de educación (P-value = 0.049) determinan el consumo de Prochilodus nigricans (Boquichico). Se concluye, que si el encuestado incrementa en un sol (S/. 1.00) su nivel de ingreso, el consumo de este pescado disminuye en un 3.8%, al igual que si su nivel de educación asciende en un nivel el consumo disminuirá en un 7.3%.
