vegans

Povzetek za Zbornik povzetkov 2. Simčičevega simpozija z naslovom Prehranski miti:

NAMEN DELA: S pomočjo pregleda literature pojasniti najpogostejše motive za prehod na vegansko prehrano v razvitih državah; ovrednotiti kakovost jedilnikov telesno dejavnih vegank, veganov, vsejedk in vsejedcev iz starostne skupine 19-30 let; ugotoviti, ali so jedilniki vegank in veganov manj skladni s priporočili za vnos esencialnih hranil kot jedilniki vsejedk in vsejedcev; ugotoviti, ali veganke in vegani v primerjavi z vsejedkami in vsejedci pogosteje uživajo stročnice, semena, oreščke, živila z dodanimi esencialnimi hranili in prehranska dopolnila; sestaviti primer enotedenskega varovalnega veganskega jedilnika, ki zadosti potrebam po vseh esencialnih hranilih in temelji na kakovostnih jedilnikih nekaterih preiskovank in preiskovancev; sestaviti praktična navodila (prehranski krožnik) za sestavljanje uravnoteženega veganskega jedilnika za odrasle. VZOREC: Za pridobivanje preiskovancev smo uporabili spletno družbeno omrežje Facebook (vzorčenje s pomočjo snežene kepe). Število preiskovancev, ki so ustrezali kriterijem in so raziskavo opravili v celoti: 48 (20 vegank, 6 veganov, 14 vsejedk in 8 vsejedcev). METODE DELA: Kratka spletna anketa z nekvantitativnim vprašalnikom o nagnjenosti k uživanju posameznih skupin živil, nenapovedana metoda dvakratnega poročanja o jedilniku prejšnjega dne, spletno orodje Odprta platforma za klinično prehrano (OPKP) in računalniški program Microsoft Office Excel. REZULTATI: Jedilniki vegank in veganov niso bili manj skladni s priporočili za vnos esencialnih hranil kot jedilniki vsejedk in vsejedcev. Pri 10 hranilih so se jedilniki vegank in veganov izkazali bolje od jedilnikov vsejedk in vsejedcev; pri 6 hranilih pa so se izkazali bolje jedilniki vsejedk in vsejedcev. Veganke in vegani so v primerjavi z vsejedkami in vsejedci bolj pogosto uživali stročnice, semena, oreščke, sadje in prehranska dopolnila.

OBJECTIVES: To shed light on the most frequent motives for adopting a vegan diet in developed countries (a review of literature); to evaluate the diet quality of young adult (19-30 years old) physically active Slovenian vegans and omnivores; to find out, if vegans’ chances to meet the dietary reference intakes (DRIs) for essential nutrients are lower than omnivores’ chances; to find out, if vegans consume legumes, seeds, nuts, fortified foods and nutritional supplements more often than omnivores; to develop a 7-day vegan menu (based on high quality menus of some participants) that meets the DRIs for all essential nutrients and stays within limits for overconsumed nutrients; to develop a vegan plate (a nutrition plate that provides detailed guidance on adopting a well-planned vegan diet for adults). SAMPLE: We used a Facebook snowball sampling method to find enough participants. 48 participants met our inclusion criteria and fully completed the study (20 female vegans, 6 male vegans, 14 female omnivores and 8 male omnivores). METHODS: A short web survey which included a food propensity questionnaire; two unannounced 24-hour dietary recalls per participant; a web-based application Open platform for clinical nutrition (OPEN); a computer program Microsoft Office Excel. RESULTS: Vegans’ chances to meet the DRIs for essential nutrients were not lower than omnivores’ chances. Vegans’ chances to meet the DRIs were higher than omnivores’ chances for 10 nutrients and lower than omnivores’ chances for 6 nutrients. Vegans consumed legumes, seeds, nuts, fruits and nutritional supplements more often than omnivores. [-Evaluation of diet quality of vegans and omnivores with a web-based application-]

The effects of long-term omnivore, ovo-lacto vegetarian and vegan diets on the occurrence of 12 antibiotic resistance (AR) genes in the human gut was studied. The faeces of 144 healthy volunteers recruited from Turin, Bari, Bologna and Parma were screened for the occurrence of genes conferring resistance to tetracyclines, macrolide-lincosamide-streptogramin B, vancomycin and β-lactams. Overall, erm(B), tet(W) and tet(M) were detected at the highest frequency. A low effect from the diet on the AR gene distribution emerged, with tet(K) and vanB occurring at a lower and higher frequency in vegans and omnivores, respectively. A correlation of the intake of eggs, milk from animal source and cheese with an increased occurrence of tet(K) was observed, together with a higher incidence of vanB in consumers of eggs, poultry meat, fish and seafood. When the detection frequencies of AR genes in volunteers from Bari and the other sites were comparatively evaluated, a north-to-south gradient was ...

Low heart rate variability (HRV) predicts sudden cardiac death. Long-chain (LC) n-3 PUFA (C20-C22) status is positively associated with HRV. This cross-sectional study investigated whether vegans aged 40-70 years (n 23), whose diets are naturally free from EPA (20 : 5n-3) and DHA (22 : 6n-3), have lower HRV compared with omnivores (n 24). Proportions of LC n-3 PUFA in erythrocyte membranes, plasma fatty acids and concentrations of plasma LC n-3 PUFA-derived lipid mediators were significantly lower in vegans. Day-time interbeat intervals (IBI), adjusted for physical activity, age, BMI and sex, were significantly shorter in vegans compared with omnivores (mean difference -67 ms; 95 % CI -130, -3·4, P50 % and high-frequency power) were similarly lower in vegans, with no differences during sleep. In conclusion, vegans have higher 24 h SDNN, but lower day-time HRV and shorter day-time IBI relative to comparable omnivores. Vegans may have reduced availability of precursor markers for pro-...
