“…Few modifiable risk factors for GDM have been identified, but diet has been indicated as one of the most important ones as it is relatively easy to modify [7,8]. Recent reviews have summarized evidence that show there is a relation between diet and the development of glucose intolerance in non-pregnant populations [9][10][11]. Both protective and risk-enhancing associations were observed between different dietary factors and glucose intolerance.…”

“…Micronutrients act via multiple pathways in glucose homeostasis [10]. For example, zinc is involved in insulin assembly, thiamin is an essential coenzyme, and magnesium is involved in glucose transport, whereas vitamin E and C may mitigate metabolic stress, promoting glucose and fatty acid utilization [11]. Thus, micronutrients can play an important role in the complex system of glucose homeostasis.…”

Pre-pregnancy dietary micronutrient adequacy is associated with lower risk of developing gestational diabetes in Australian women. Ntr (2018), https://doi. AbstractEvidence on pre-pregnancy dietary micronutrient intake in relation to gestational diabetes (GDM) development is limited. Therefore, we examined the prevalence of inadequate micronutrient intake before pregnancy and the association between pre-pregnancy dietary micronutrient adequacy, i.e. meeting micronutrient intake recommendations for a range of micronutrients, and risk of developing GDM in an Australian population. We hypothesized that women with an overall higher micronutrient adequacy would have a lower risk of developing GDM. We used data from the prospective Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health cohort, in which 3,607 women, aged 25-30 years at baseline in 2003 and without diabetes, were followed-up until 2015. Diet was assessed with a validated 101-item food frequency questionnaire. The Micronutrient Adequacy Ratio (MAR) was calculated as the micronutrient intake divided by its recommended dietary intake averaged over thirteen micronutrients. Multivariable regression models with generalized estimating equations were used to estimate relative risks (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). In 6,263 pregnancies, 285 cases of GDM were documented (4.6%). High prevalences of inadequate dietary micronutrient intake were observed for calcium (47.9%), folate (80.8%), magnesium (52.5%), potassium (63.8%) and vitamin E (78.6%), indicating suboptimal pre-pregnancy micronutrient intakes. Inadequate intakes of individual micronutrients were not associated with risk of developing GDM. However, women in the highest quartile of the MAR had a 39% lower risk of developing GDM compared to women in the lowest quartile (RR 0.61, 95% CI 0.43-0.86, p for trend 0.01). These results highlight the importance of adequate prepregnancy micronutrient intake.

“…Administration of the carotenoid lycopene to rats ameliorated insulin signaling deficits and improved cognitive function in rats (Yin et al, 2014). The latter findings, and additional findings reviewed previously (Kapogiannis and Mattson, 2011; Russell et al, 2013) suggest that some neurohormetic phytochemicals can enhance activation of insulin/IGF-1 signaling to bolster cellular bioenergetics and improve neuronal resistance to dysfunction and degeneration. Collectively, the available data suggest that phytochemcials that modulate the insulin/IGF-1/FOXO signaling pathway merit investigation as potential therapeutic agents for insulin resistance-related metabolic and neurodegenerative disorders.…”

The impact of dietary factors on brain health and vulnerability to disease is increasingly appreciated. The results of epidemiological studies, and intervention trials in animal models suggest that diets rich in phytochemicals can enhance neuroplasticity and resistance to neurodegeneration. Here we describe how interactions of plants and animals during their co-evolution, and resulting reciprocal adaptations, have shaped the remarkable characteristics of phytochemicals and their effects on the physiology of animal cells in general, and neurons in particular. Survival advantages were conferred upon plants capable of producing noxious bitter-tasting chemicals, and on animals able to tolerate the phytochemicals and consume the plants as an energy source. The remarkably diverse array of phytochemicals present in modern fruits, vegetables spices, tea and coffee may have arisen, in part, from the acquisition of adaptive cellular stress responses and detoxification enzymes in animals that enabled them to consume plants containing potentially toxic chemicals. Interestingly, some of the same adaptive stress response mechanisms that protect neurons against noxious phytochemicals are also activated by dietary energy restriction and vigorous physical exertion, two environmental challenges that shaped brain evolution. In this perspective article, we describe some of the signaling pathways relevant to cellular energy metabolism that are modulated by ‘neurohormetic phytochemicals’ (potentially toxic chemicals produced by plants that have beneficial effects on animals when consumed in moderate amounts). We highlight the cellular bioenergetics-related sirtuin, adenosine monophosphate activated protein kinase (AMPK), mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) pathways. The inclusion of dietary neurohormetic phytochemicals in an overall program for brain health that also includes exercise and energy restriction may find applications in the prevention and treatment of a range of neurological disorders.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is established as the combination of central obesity and different metabolic disturbances, such as insulin resistance, hypertension and dyslipidemia. This cluster of factors affects approximately 10%–50% of adults worldwide and the prevalence has been increasing in epidemic proportions over the last years. Thus, dietary strategies to treat this heterogenic disease are under continuous study. In this sense, diets based on negative-energy-balance, the Mediterranean dietary pattern, n-3 fatty acids, total antioxidant capacity and meal frequency have been suggested as effective approaches to treat MetS. Furthermore, the type and percentage of carbohydrates, the glycemic index or glycemic load, and dietary fiber content are some of the most relevant aspects related to insulin resistance and impaired glucose tolerance, which are important co-morbidities of MetS. Finally, new studies focused on the molecular action of specific nutritional bioactive compounds with positive effects on the MetS are currently an objective of scientific research worldwide. The present review summarizes some of the most relevant dietary approaches and bioactive compounds employed in the treatment of the MetS to date.
