  • Not one but two new papers, published in Cambridge Core and Science Advances (here and here) attempt to reframe (read that as disguise) the EAT Lancet Planetary Health Diet's recommendations to make them more palatable as the pressure to reduce meat eating to ‘protect the planet’ revs up. Such, so-called, ‘climate-friendly’ dietary shifts are now referred to as being ‘flexitarian’ as the authors seek to nudge people away from the consumption of animal products towards plant-based and new-to-nature food products, including 'aternative' proteins and 'precision fermented' food products.

Nucleatum to flourish and in turn travel around the body to sites where cancer thrives.

  • According to a new randomised control study published in eBiomedicine, neotame (a sweeter cousin of aspartame) and stevia rebaudioside M, don't affect appetite or endocrine responses when compared to sucrose sweetened biscuits, but can reduce postprandial and insulin response in overweight and obese individuals.
