En specialframtagen tomat- och sojajuice sänkte flera markörer för inflammation hos vuxna med fetma efter fyra veckors daglig konsumtion. Drycken, som är rik på lykopen och sojaisoflavoner, gav bättre resultat än en kontrolljuice gjord på tomat i en liten klinisk studie ledd av forskare vid The Ohio State University.

Tolv friska vuxna med fetma deltog i studien. De drack två 6-ounce-burkar (cirka 1,8 deciliter styck) av tomat- och sojajuicen varje dag i fyra veckor, följt av en uppehållsperiod och därefter fyra veckor med en kontrolljuice med låg halt av karotenoider. Blodprover visade signifikanta minskningar av cytokinerna Interleukin-5, IL-12p70 och granulocyt-makrofag-kolonistimulerande faktor efter perioden med tomat- och sojajuice, medan kontrolljuicen inte gav några likvärdiga förändringar.

Study of young lung cancer patients finds unexpectedly high diet-quality scores; researchers probe possible pesticide exposure

18 april 2026 Rapporterad av AI Faktagranskad

Preliminary research from USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center, presented at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) annual meeting, found that non-smokers diagnosed with lung cancer before age 50 reported eating more fruits, vegetables and whole grains—and had higher overall Healthy Eating Index scores—than the U.S. population average. The researchers emphasized that the results do not prove diet causes lung cancer and said a possible explanation could involve environmental exposures such as pesticides, a hypothesis that requires direct testing.
