In this new systematic review, physical activity levels, sedentary behavior levels, & muscle composition+capacity were shown to be modifiable factors related to physical function in people on dialysis.

Cost also a factor here: NHANES data analysed by @NtlDairyCouncil shows calcium cents/mg costs from different food sources. #Nutrition2019
Joanne Slavin: emphasizing that obtaining the calcium RDI (1000mg/d) using non-fortified foods is extremely difficult without dairy sources #Nutrition2019.

Prof Jim Hill: “It’s not willpower it’s physiology” - a reminder that weight management is underpinned by a complex array of physiological (+ societal..environmental..genetic..microbiome..) factors affecting our dietary intake & physical activity. #Nutrition2019 @nutritionorg
Protein intake for elderly - key considerations: 1) Protein requirements are increased vs. young adults 2) Supplementation with high quality protein (or leucine) may preserve muscle health (esp. during bedrest). @mackinprof @donlayman #dougpaddonjones #Nutrition2019 @nutritionorg
Nice work @ReynoldsAnaru @LisaTeMorenga!
Massive meta-analysis (135 million person-years) finds that dietary fiber intake is associated with substantial health benefits including lower all-cause mortality, while dietary glycemic index/load is not.

The Editor-in-Chief and all Associate Editors of Nutrients resigned in the last 2 weeks. Unfettered decision-making by editorial boards is a must for high quality journals and scientific integrity.
Why did I just get a review request from @Nutrients_MDPI that reads like nonsense journal spam?
