This week we look at research around the benefits of fruit and veg, finishing with a shot of alcohol research.\u00a0 Firstly, researchers from Boston found that eating fruit and vegetables was associated with a lower incident of breast cancer. \u00a0Researchers from the University of Warwick identified a combination of plant compounds that induced the beneficial metabolic enzyme Glo1. \u00a0And Danish researchers looked at the effects of alcohol intake on two health outcomes in post-menopausal women.<\/p>\n
Research published in the British Medical Journal<\/a>\u00a0(BMJ) looked at how\u00a0fruit consumption in adolescence and vegetables and fruit in early adulthood impacted\u00a0the development of breast cancer. \u00a0It was concluded that consumption was associated with lower breast cancer risk, adding, \u201cFood choices during adolescence might be particularly important\u201d,\u00a0Read more.<\/a><\/p>\n Researchers from the University of Warwick\u00a0published a paper in the journal Diabetes<\/a>\u00a0that investigated whether the combination of two plant derived compounds trans-resveratrol (tRES) and hesperetin (HESP) could induce expression of enzyme glyoxalase 1 (Glo1).\u00a0 Glo1 can block methylglyoxal (MG), <\/strong>a driver of insulin resistance and blood vessel damage.\u00a0 A supplement containing tRES and HESP was demonstrated to increase Glo1 activity, reduce insulin and blood vessel inflammation.\u00a0 Read abstract.<\/a><\/p>\n A Danish study published in the BMJ <\/a>looked at the alcohol intake of post menopausal women over five years.\u00a0 It showed that women, who increased their alcohol consumption by 1 to 2\u00a0drinks a day, compared to those with stable alcohol intake, moderately increased their risk of breast cancer and reduced their risk of coronary heart disease. \u00a0Read more.<\/a><\/p>\n This week we look at research around the benefits of fruit and veg, finishing with a shot of alcohol research.\u00a0 Firstly, researchers from Boston found that eating fruit and vegetables was associated with a lower incident of breast cancer. \u00a0Researchers from the University of Warwick identified a combination of plant compounds that induced the beneficial metabolic enzyme Glo1. \u00a0And Danish researchers looked at the effects of alcohol intake on two health outcomes in post-menopausal women.
