To evaluate the potential influence of hypoxia on the course of IBD on a biomolecular level, and to test the effects of hypoxia under standardized conditions, the investigators initiated a prospective and controlled investigation in healthy controls and IBD patients in stable remission. the
The study will begin with 2 days of studies in San Francisco (sea level baseline). Measurements will include non-invasive measurements of blood and tissue oxygen and venous blood draws for cytokine levels.
The altitude part of the study involves ascent to the University of California's White
Aquamin is a seaweed-derived mineral source, which is rich in calcium, magnesium and 74 other trace minerals including zinc, iron and selenium. It is produced from the red algae, Lithothamnion Calcareum, which is found in just three locations in the world, including the south-west coast of Ireland
Summary About 10-15 % of the adult population in Sweden suffers from periodontitis, which is an inflammatory response to certain oral bacteria. The first stage of periodontitis is termed gingivitis, which is clinically defined by swollen tissue, redness and bleeding in the gingiva. If the
Background Information and Scientific Rationale
Consumption of long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs), including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5n-3), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA; 22:5n-3), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22:6n-3) from fish and fish-oil supplements reduces disease risk
The aim of the project was to investigate whether it is possible to reduce the risk of metabolic diseases with supplementing the diet with sea buckthorn berries (Hippophaë rhamnoides), their bioactive fractions, and bilberries (Vaccinium myrtillus). The study design was a randomized cross-over
Specific Aim 1: To ascertain the rate of periodontal disease progression on poorly controlled Type 2 diabetic Gullah African American patients as compared to well-controlled Gullah African American patients. The host inflammatory response appears to be the critical determinant for susceptibility and
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) represent a major public health challenge and the leading cause of mortality worldwide. The elucidation of CVD pathogenesis, as well as the identification of efficient strategies for their prevention and treatment, have been the subject of intense research in recent

To estimate the influence of the atmospheric pollution on the whole adult population, subjects will be recruited in a wide range of age (20 - 80 years).
Samples of atmospheric particles will be collected in Dunkerque (North of France), one of the most important industrial areas in France. This city
Digestive discomfort includes gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain, altered bowel habit, flatulence and bloating and can sometimes result from slower intestinal transit and other digestive irregularities. Digestive discomfort may lead to health issues in the long-term. In a recent survey
1. Introduction
Consumption of fish provides a vital contribution to the survival and health of a significant portion of the world's population. Lipids in fish foods consist mainly of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) such as eicosapentaenic acid (EPA, C20:5n-3) and docosahexaenoic acid
