While a high-carbohydrate intake can increase serotonin synthesis, fat and protein intakes reduce serotonin concentrations in the brain.45-47 There is an abundance of evidence demonstrating a link between serotogenic functions of the brain and aspects of psychological functioning, particularly depression...
Background/objective: Very low-carbohydrate, high-fat (LC) diets are used for type 2 diabetes (T2DM) management, but their effects on psychological health remain largely unknown. This study examined the long-term effects of an LC diet on psychological health. Methods: One hundred and fifteen ...

Effect of dietary protein intake and intravenous glucose infusion on plasma concentrations of insulin-like growth factor-I in lambs. Two separate experiments were carried out to examine the effect of dietary protein intake on basal and GH-stimulated plasma insulin-like growth factor-I (I... G,...
In studies performed in mice, rose hip powder has been shown to both prevent and reverse high-fat diet-induced obesity and glucose intolerance as well as reduce plasma levels of cholesterol. The aim of this study was to investigate whether daily intake of rose hip powder over 6 weeks exerts...
The dietary intervention aimed at ~25–30% energy deficit per day with a macronutrient distribution within the range of 45–60 energy percent (E%) carbohydrate, 15–20E% protein and 20–35E% fat (<7E% saturated fat). The intervention consisted of individualized recommendations and recipes. A...
