“…Yelverton reported that fiber, magnesium, niacin, thiamine, and folate were positively related to pregnancy [49]. Ugartmendia reported taking less soluble fiber as a factor of frailty for young male and female patients [50]. To our knowledge, this is the first report of WHO-5 and nutrients in older people; however, it is likely that WHO-5 score was improved by the supplementation of nutrients that were initially deficient.…”

Frailty is a huge concern for the aging population, and dietary nutrition is considered a key factor in the prevention of aging. To solve the problem of frailty in the aging population, we developed a novel dietary intervention program using a novel COMpletely Balanced for Frailty Prevention (COMB-FP) meal, based on the Dietary Reference Intake for Japanese; in addition, we conducted a pilot randomized control trial comparing an exercise program only (control group) with exercise plus the COMB-FP meal program (test group). We included 110 male and female healthy volunteers with pre-frailty or frailty; the trial lasted for 12 weeks. Two daily meals were replaced with the COMB-FP meals during the trial in the test group. Walking speed and cognitive function were significantly improved in the test group compared with the control group. We observed a similar pattern in other frailty-related outcomes, such as occupancy of the microbiome, World Health Organization well-being index (WHO-5), and oxidative stress. Our study might indicate the importance of a well-balanced intake of nutrients for frailty prevention.

“…Here we focused on specific dietary components. Fat, carbohydrates, and fruit and vegetable intake had been identified in the literature to play a key role in mood and wellbeing ( 13 , 14 , 65 ). Our findings supported the role of fruit and vegetable intake in concurrent wellbeing.…”

A healthy diet and lifestyle may protect against adverse mental health outcomes, which is especially crucial during stressful times, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. This preregistered longitudinal online study explored whether diet and lifestyle (physical activity, sleep, and social interactions) were associated with wellbeing and mood during a light lockdown in Germany. Participants (N = 117, 72 males; 28 ± 9 years old) answered mental health and lifestyle questionnaires (social connections, sleep, activity) followed by submitting 1 week of food and mood-lifestyle diary (food intake, positive and negative mood, mental wellbeing, sleep quality, physical activity level, quantity and quality of social interactions) via a smartphone app. We used multivariate linear and mixed-effects models to associate mood and wellbeing with dietary components and lifestyle factors. Interindividual analyses revealed that sleep and social interaction significantly impacted mood and wellbeing. Interestingly, fruit and vegetable intake correlated with wellbeing, even when controlling for all lifestyle factors. Fruit and vegetable intake also significantly correlated with daily fluctuations in wellbeing within individuals next to sleep, physical activity, and social interactions. We observed gender differences in fruit and vegetable intake and anxiety levels. Our results emphasize the importance of diet contributing to individual wellbeing, even in the challenging times of a pandemic. Future research is necessary to test if our findings could extend to other populations.

“…Furthermore, a recent Spanish study [72] also observed the negative impact on mental health of diets that defer from the traditional Mediterranean Diet, and the association between mental health aspects and macronutrients. The authors concluded that a healthy diet, rich in complex carbohydrates, insoluble fibre, and aspartate, and low in cholesterol could be beneficial for mental health [72].…”

Introduction: Mental health problems, especially depression and anxiety, among university students are widespread, and begin pre-matriculation. Diet is among the factors contributing to mental health in all age groups. Aim: The present review aims to critically summarize the observational studies and clinical trials that have investigated the association between mental health and diet quality in university student populations. Methods: PubMed was comprehensively searched to identify studies that explore the role of aspects of diet quality on quality of life, depression, and anxiety in university students. Results: Healthy dietary patterns, such as the Mediterranean and the DASH diet, diets with high intakes of antioxidants and antioxidant vitamins, folate, Zinc and Calcium are associated with less depressive symptoms. Higher alcohol and salt intake have also been associated with depression. Conclusion: Healthy dietary patterns, with adequate micronutrient and antioxidant intakes are associated with better mental health status. However, further randomised controlled clinical studies are needed in order to clarify the cause and the effect of the observed associations.
