Contradictory dual role of antinutrients in nutrient inhibition and anti-aging: A comprehensive review on health benefits, processing techniques, and dietary strategies

2 months 2 weeks ago
BACKGROUND: Antinutritional factors (antinutrients) are bioactive compounds in plant-derived foods that can impair nutrient absorption and reduce the bioavailability of proteins, carbohydrates, and essential minerals. Major representatives include phytates, oxalates, lectins, tannins, saponins, and enzyme inhibitors, which have been associated with adverse nutritional outcomes through interference with nutrient uptake.

Tangles and Plaques: A deep dive into the pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease

2 months 2 weeks ago
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder. In AD, there is a gradual impairment of memory and cognitive function that interferes with daily living. The pathophysiology of AD revolves around complex interactions between amyloid-β (Aβ) overproduction and accumulation, followed by tau hyperphosphorylation, which together promote a cascade of neuronal dysfunction and degeneration. AD has two forms, sporadic and familial, with genetic variants such as triggering...
