By Hiroshi HIYAMA Tokyo (AFP) - L'entreprise japonaise Kobayashi Pharmaceutical a annoncé vendredi avoir identifié 76 décès supplémentaires potentiellement liés à ses compléments alimentaires anticholestérol contenant de la levure de riz rouge, au coeur d'un retentissant scandale sanitaire au Japon depuis plusieurs mois. Lors d'un précédent point d'étape sur cette affaire en avril, Kobayashi Pharmaceutical avait fait état de cinq décès potentiellement associés à ses produits, retirés depuis du marché. Ce nombre initial avait été réduit entretemps à quatre. Cela porte donc à 80 le total proviso...

Para las latinas embarazadas, la elección de los alimentos podría reducir el riesgo de preeclampsia, un tipo especialmente peligroso de hipertensión. Un nuevo estudio muestra que es más probable que una dieta basada en preferencias alimentarias culturales, en lugar de las guías oficiales, ayude a prevenir esta enfermedad. Investigadores de la Escuela de Medicina Keck de la USC encontraron que una combinación de grasas sólidas, granos refinados y queso se relacionaba con mayores tasas de preeclampsia entre un grupo de latinas de bajos ingresos de Los Ángeles. Por el contrario, las mujeres que c...

For pregnant Latinas, food choices could reduce the risk of preeclampsia, a dangerous type of high blood pressure, and a diet based on cultural food preferences, rather than on U.S. government benchmarks, is more likely to help ward off the illness, a new study shows. Researchers at the USC Keck School of Medicine found that a combination of solid fats, refined grains, and cheese was linked to higher rates of preeclampsia among a group of low-income Latinas in Los Angeles. By contrast, women who ate vegetables, fruits, and meals made with healthy oils were less likely to develop the illness. T...

Washington (AFP) - Cut the salt, cut the sugar, but you can keep the chocolate milk. The US Agriculture Department proposed new standards on Friday aimed at tackling obesity and providing millions of American children with more nutritious school meals. "Many children aren't getting the nutrition they need, and diet-related diseases are on the rise," Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said in a statement. "Research shows school meals are the healthiest meals in a day for most kids, proving that they are an important tool for giving kids access to the nutrition they need for a bright future," he ...

The drought that has left a large part of Europe's soils dry since the beginning of the summer serves as a reminder that water is a precious and exhaustible commodity. The restrictions imposed on farmers lead to serious considerations about the food of tomorrow. One solution could come from West African countries, which, for thousands of years, have been cultivating a cereal that needs almost no water to grow. That grain is fonio. It's not wheat, it's not barley, and it's not quinoa either. But, it looks quite similar to these grains. Available in white and black varieties, although the latter...

By 2029, the meat substitute market is expected to grow by more than 11% to $12 billion. And hardly a day goes by without the food industry coming up with a new animal-protein-free alternative. However, the success of this market may not be quite what you think... Plant-based alternatives are still far from winning over all consumers Consumers born after World War II and up to 1965 -- those typically referred to as "boomers" -- are not the category most attracted to this type of food. Gen Z, those born in the late 1990s, but also Millennials, consumers born between the early 1980s and mid-1990...

Take fruit, water and sugar. Filter it, and you get "spa water," a recipe that's gone viral on TikTok, not for its refreshing virtues (which are, however, undeniable), but for its origins. By giving a new name to what has long been called "agua fresca," the influencer behind the original post has offended a whole community of TikTokers of Latin American origin, who are calling out the cultural appropriation of this culinary creation. Not a week goes by without a new recipe buzzing on TikTok. This constant influx of tricks and flavor combinations can give the impression that members of the Chin...

British retailer Waitrose said on Monday it was removing "best before" dates from almost 500 fresh products in its supermarkets, in a bit to curb food waste. "Best before" dates tells customers food is at its optimal before this date, but is still fine to eat for a time afterwards. From September the upmarket chain will remove the label from a range of packaged fresh fruit, herbs and vegetables. "UK households throw away 4.5 millions tonnes of edible food every year, meaning that all the energy and resources used in food production is wasted," said Marija Rompani, director of sustainability an...

From spirulina to soy, chia seeds and squash, alternatives to meat are popular because they offer a new way to fill up on protein. But if you've decided to choose these options to reduce the environmental impact of your diet, bear in mind that eating too much of these foods might not be so wise either. In fact, it could contribute to nitrogen pollution. We get protein from rib-eye, but also from fried eggs, a bowl of lentils or a salad of beansprouts. Protein is an essential part of our diet, helping the body to build muscle tissue and to renew cells in bones, hair and nails. Whether of animal...
