Consumption of a light meal affects serum concentrations of one-carbon metabolites and B-vitamins. A clinical intervention study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The transfer of one-carbon units between molecules in metabolic pathways is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis, but little is known about whether the circulating concentrations of metabolites involved in the ... -
Dietary fish intake increased the concentration of soluble ACE2 in rats: can fish consumption reduce the risk of COVID-19 infection through interception of SARS-CoV-2 by soluble ACE2?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) enters the cells after binding to the membrane-bound receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), but this may be prevented through interception by soluble ... -
The effect of infant vitamin B12 supplementation on neurodevelopment: A follow-up of a randomized placebo-controlled trial in Nepal
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The most critical period for brain development is before a child’s second birthday. Standardised tests measuring neurodevelopment are more reliable when administered after this period. Severe vitamin B12 deficiency affects ... -
Effects of diets containing fish oils or fish oil concentrates with high cetoleic acid content on the circulating cholesterol concentration in rodents. A systematic review and meta-analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Hypercholesterolaemia is a major risk factor for CVD. Fish intake is associated with lower risk of CVD, whereas supplementation with n-3 long-chain PUFA (LC-PUFA) has little effect on the cholesterol concentration. We ... -
Five salmon dinners per week were not sufficient to prevent the reduction in serum vitamin D in autumn at 60° north latitude: A randomised trial
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Low serum concentrations of several vitamins have been linked to increased risk of diseases including insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Fish is a good source of several vitamins, and the prevalence of T2D is ... -
Infant iodine status and associations with maternal iodine nutrition, breastfeeding status and thyroid function
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Adequate iodine nutrition during infancy is required for normal thyroid function and, subsequently, brain development. However, data on infant iodine status in the first year of life are scarce. This study aimed to describe ... -
Maternal use of folic acid and multivitamin supplements and infant risk of birth defects in Norway, 1999–2013
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The association between folic acid supplementation and birth defects other than neural tube defects (NTD) remains unclear. We used a log-binomial regression model to investigate if periconceptional folic acid and/or ... -
Meal patterns associated with energy intake in people with obesity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)It is widely assumed that people with obesity have several common eating patterns, including breakfast-skipping (1), eating during the night (2) and high fast-food consumption (3). However, differences in individual meal ... -
Milk-cereal mix supplementation during infancy and impact on neurodevelopmental outcomes at 12 and 24 months of age: A randomized controlled trial in India
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Inadequate protein intake and lack of micronutrients may affect neurodevelopment in infants. This randomised controlled trial was conducted to measure the effect of two milk–cereal mixes with modest and high amounts of ... -
Plasma free choline, betaine and cognitive performance: the Hordaland Health Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-02)Choline and betaine are nutrients involved in one-carbon metabolism. Choline is essential for neurodevelopment and brain function. We studied the associations between cognitive function and plasma concentrations of free ... -
Time-Resolved Concentrations of Serum Amino Acids, One-carbon Metabolites, and B-vitamin Biomarkers during the Postprandial and Fasting State: The Postprandial Metabolism in Healthy Young Adults (PoMet) study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Metabolomics has been utilised in epidemiological studies to investigate biomarkers of nutritional status and metabolism in relation to non-communicable diseases. However, little is known about the effect of prandial status ... -
Urine and plasma concentrations of amino acids and plasma vitamin status differ, and are differently affected by salmon intake, in obese Zucker fa/fa rats with impaired kidney function and in Long-Evans rats with healthy kidneys
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Kidney function affects amino acid metabolism and vitamin status. The aims of the present study were to investigate urine and plasma concentrations of amino acids as well as plasma vitamin status in rats with impaired renal ...
