- Food questionnaires and/or food diaries are commonly used to measure dietary intake in population based studies. Biomarkers, however, may provide more reliable intake measures than self-reported data. Unfortunately, only very few food biomarkers have been sufficiently validated.In December 2014, the JPI HDHL Food Biomarkers Alliance (FOODBALL) project commenced, which aims to develop strategies…
- Combining biomarker panels and dietary intake data for improved assessment of healthful/unhealthful plant food intake Image AbstractAccurate information on food intake is necessary to investigate diet-health associations. Traditional assessment methods depend on self-reported data, which are prone to measurement…
- Background and aimThe VALID project aims to validate plasma valerolactones as stable biomarkers of catechin- and procyanidin- rich foods and to demonstrate their association with markers of metabolic health, inflammation and cognitive function in an older European population, building upon the existing TUDA study of 5,186 older adults. The VALID project has 5 objectives, to evaluate:Plasma PVLs…
- Background and aimThe FiberTAG project has established a set of biomarkers linking dietary fiber (DF) intake and gut microbiota-related health effect. We aim at refining the concept of DF based on novel biological effects that can occur upon gut microbiota-nutrients interaction by using existing cohorts and by developing innovative approaches to evaluate the health interest of novel insoluble DF…
- Dietary Assessment & Further Development of Biomarkers for All Image AbstractThe role of diet in health is well established and current dietary and lifestyle patterns together with an ageing population has resulted in an increase in the prevalence of diet-related…
- Background and aimThe SALAMANDER project aimed at defining salivary signatures indicative of healthy dietary choices (adherence to a Mediterranean diet: MeDi) with a positive long-term health outcome (protection against type 2 diabetes: T2DM).In a discovery phase, 214 subjects were selected in two cohorts of elderly people (3-C Bordeaux in France, Seniors-ENRICA in Spain) following a case-control…
- Background and aimFAME aimed to a) identify novel lipidomics biomarkers as biomarkers of fatty acid status and of future cardiometabolic clinical events, b) establish relationships between diet and tissue status of fatty acids as explanatory factors for diet relationships with cardiometabolic health, and c) to investigate genetic determinants of fatty acid status and metabolism which modify the…
- Background and aimRecent findings convincingly demonstrate that Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) are modifiable by diet and reflect changes in healthy state. SALIVAGES investigates whether that diet-induced AGEs can act as reliable biomarkers of changes in health status and/or risk, focusing on the most highly accessible source of AGEs, the saliva. The main objectives of SALIVAGES were the…
- Background and aimSub-optimal status of Riboflavin (vitamin-B2) may be more widespread than generally recognised because of reliance on dietary data only in many nutrition surveys and lack of reliable biomarker data. The DERiVE project aimed to address this by developing accessible riboflavin biomarkers and by demonstrating important functional, gene-nutrient and health effects of optimal…
