“…Furthermore, a more sustainable lifestyle approach is thought to be via the modification of the dietary pattern as a whole, instead of simply supplementing or depleting some specific foods or nutrients. However, the influence of dietary patterns on sleep has been less explored [ 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 ], and most of the available evidence in this context has been focused on the effects of the Mediterranean diet on sleep and to see whether sleep improvements might be an additional health benefit of this diet.…”

The Mediterranean diet is a plant-based, antioxidant-rich, unsaturated fat dietary pattern that has been consistently associated with lower rates of noncommunicable diseases and total mortality, so that it is considered one of the healthiest dietary patterns. Clinical trials and mechanistic studies have demonstrated that the Mediterranean diet and its peculiar foods and nutrients exert beneficial effects against inflammation, oxidative stress, dysmetabolism, vascular dysfunction, adiposity, senescence, cognitive decline, neurodegeneration, and tumorigenesis, thus preventing age-associated chronic diseases and improving wellbeing and health. Nocturnal sleep is an essential physiological function, whose alteration is associated with health outcomes and chronic diseases. Scientific evidence suggests that diet and sleep are related in a bidirectional relationship, and the understanding of this association is important given their role in disease prevention. In this review, we surveyed the literature concerning the current state of evidence from epidemiological studies on the impact of the Mediterranean diet on nighttime sleep quantity and quality. The available studies indicate that greater adherence to the Mediterranean diet is associated with adequate sleep duration and with several indicators of better sleep quality. Potential mechanisms mediating the effect of the Mediterranean diet and its foods and nutrients on sleep are described, and gap-in-knowledge and new research agenda to corroborate findings are discussed.

Background Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in women globally. Recent studies have reported that the minor allele (C allele) for melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) rs17782313 may be related to the incidence of obesity and the risk of CVD. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the interactions between the modified Nordic-style diet score (MND) and MC4R gene variant on markers of CVD. Methods The current cross-sectional study was conducted on 282 Iranian women, aged 18–48 years, with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25. MND score was assessed using a 147 items food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). Genotyping of the MC4R (rs17782313) was conducted by the PCR method. The anthropometric measurements and serum profiles were assessed by standard protocols. Results The means and standard deviation (SD) of age, weight, and BMI of individuals were 36.67 ± 9.10 years, 81.29 ± 12.43 kg, and 31.26 ± 4.29 kg/m2, respectively. The overall prevalence of rs17782313 genotypes was 30.1%, 24.8%, and 45.1% for TT, TC, and CC, respectively. Our results showed significant negative interactions between high MND score and rs17782313 SNP in terms of visceral fat level (VFL) (β: -10.84, 95% CI: -20.64 to -1.04, P = 0.03) and total cholesterol (β: -24.24, 95% CI: -49.87 to 1.38, P = 0.06) in the crude model. After adjusting confounders, the interaction between high MND scores and VFL remained significant. Conclusion In conclusion, the results of the present study suggest that diet, gene variants, and their interaction should be considered in metabolic disease risk assessment. Further studies are needed to confirm these data and better elucidate the interaction.

Amaç: Bu araştırmada aralıklı açlık diyetinin yetişkin kadınlarda zaman kısıtlaması olmayan diyete kıyasla antropometrik parametrelere etkisinin araştırılması amaçlandı. Yöntem: Araştırma Şubat-Mart 2022 tarihlerinde Denizli’de özel bir beslenme danışmanlığı merkezine başvuran ortalama yaşı 39.4±11.2 yıl olan, hafif şişman ve obez gönüllü 54 yetişkin kadın birey ile yürütüldü. Bireyler, aralıklı açlık diyeti uygulayan müdahale grubu (n=27) ve zaman kısıtlaması olmayan geleneksel diyet uygulayan kontrol grubu (n=27) olmak üzere randomize olarak 2 gruba ayrıldı ve tüm gruplara 6 hafta boyunca zayıflama diyeti uygulandı. Araştırmanın başlangıcında sosyodemografik özellikleri, hastalık bilgisi ve beslenme alışkanlıkları sorgulanarak anket formuna kaydedildi. Katılımcıların sirkadiyen ritim özelliklerini belirlemek için Sabahçıl-Akşamcıl Ölçeği ve fiziksel aktivite alışkanlıklarını belirlemek için Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi (IPAQ) uygulandı. İlave olarak, araştırmanın başında ve 6. haftasında bireylerin antropometrik ölçümleri ve 24 saatlik geriye dönük besin tüketim kayıtları değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Katılımcıların sirkadiyen ritimleri; %46.2’si normal tip, %29.6’sı sabahçıl ve %27.8’i akşamcıl tipe yakın bulundu (p>0.05). Toplam vücut ağırlığı kaybı kontrol grubunda ortalama 4.97±1.97 kg iken, müdahale grubunda 5.13±1.98 kg bulundu (p>0.05). Müdahale öncesi ve sonrasında antropometrik ölçümler ile vücut kompozisyonlarındaki değişim gruplar arasında istatistiksel olarak önemli bulunmadı (p
