J-shaped association between dietary zinc intake and new-onset hypertension: a nationwide cohort study in China

Panpan He et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between dietary zinc intake and new-onset hypertension in Chinese adults. The results showed a J-shaped association, with a decreased risk of new-onset hypertension at zinc intake below 10.9 mg/day and an increased risk at intake above 10.9 mg/day.

Dietary zinc intake and sources among Koreans: findings from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2016-2019

Jee-Seon Shim et al.

Summary: This study aimed to estimate the dietary zinc intake levels and sources among Koreans. The mean zinc intake of Koreans was above the recommended level, but one-third of the population had inadequate intake and some children were at risk of excessive intake. The major sources of dietary zinc were grains, meats, and vegetables.

Jing-Wei Gao et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the association between dietary zinc intake and coronary artery calcium progression. The results suggested that higher dietary zinc intake, particularly from non-red meat sources, was independently associated with a lower risk of CAC progression in a multiethnic population free of clinically apparent cardiovascular disease.

Iron intake with the risk of breast cancer among Chinese women: a case-control study

Kai-Yan Liu et al.

Summary: The study found that iron intake from plants and white meat was inversely associated with breast cancer risk in Southern Chinese women, while there were no significant associations with other sources of iron intake. Total dietary iron and heme iron showed significant non-linear J-shaped associations with breast cancer risk, while heme iron, iron from meat, and iron from red meat showed reverse L-shaped associations.

Wenli Hu et al.

Summary: Selenium is an essential micronutrient for mammals, with deficiency posing a serious threat to health. Biofortification strategies have been developed to combat selenium deficiency. While selenium supplementation is beneficial for preventing and treating chronic diseases, the effects may vary depending on individual baseline selenium status.

Anticancer potential of ascorbic acid and inorganic selenium on human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 and colon carcinoma HCT-116

Magdah A. Ganash

Summary: The study aimed to investigate the antitumor effects of ascorbic acid and selenium on HCT116 and MCF7 cell lines. Cytotoxicity of different concentrations of ascorbic acid and selenium on human breast cancer and colon carcinoma cells was studied, with results showing a decrease in cell viability with increasing ascorbic acid concentrations and selenium effect showing less cytotoxicity on MCF7 cells compared to HCT116 cells. The combination of ascorbic acid and selenium displayed an additive chemopreventive effect on carcinogenesis, suggesting a potential synergistic action for an enhanced anticarcinogenic effect.
