Inhibiting pancreatic lipase activity is an effective means of reducing fat absorption, which may have a role in combating obesity by limiting energy intake. The use of pharmaceutical lipase inhibitors has been limited due to the prevalence of undesirable side effects. Polyphenols represent an alternative strategy to inhibit digestive enzymes...

Aim: There is growing interest in pharmacologic ascorbate (Asc) and its therapeutic properties (Levine et al. Adv Nutr 2011;2:78). W e examined cell viability, histone deacetylase (HDAC) expression, and related protein modifications in cancer versus non- cancer colon epithelial cells following exposure to Asc.
Methods: MTT assays were conducted in...

Seasonality is defined as a change in mood and behavior with the seasons. Research shows there is a possible connection between vitamin D levels and mood (Murphy & Wagner, 2008; Lansdowne & Provost, 1998). Given that vitamin D is produced when skin is exposed to sunlight and varies with sun...
