Postprandial sleepiness refers to the state of excessive drowsiness that occurs after consuming a meal. This transient phenomenon is experienced by many individuals, often leading to decreased productivity and impaired cognitive performance. This study examined the effect of a whole-food plant-based (WFPB) diet on postprandial sleepiness. Ten participants who had postprandial sleepiness who were on a typical American diet transitioned to a WFPB dietary pattern for 21 days. Postprandial sleepiness was assessed using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) questionnaire, focusing on Q7 “sitting quietly after lunch without alcohol” as well as Q5 “lying down to rest in the afternoon when circumstances permit.” The participants had a mean age of 44 +/− 15 years, with 30% being male. There was a statistically significant reduction in sleepiness measured by ESS Q7 (median change = −1, P = .012) and ESS Q5 (median change = −1.5, P = .008). Moreover, there was a statistically significant decrease in overall ESS scores (median change = −8.0, P = .006), and weight (median change = −2.9 kg, P = .006). Participants demonstrated significant improvement in postprandial sleepiness-related situations. Our findings showed that the WFPB diet may have potential benefits for reducing postprandial and overall daytime sleepiness.

Background: Lifestyle interventions can improve mental and physical health in patients with mental illness, but implementing these in clinical practice seems difficult. Purpose: Investigate barriers and facilitators for mental health professionals (MHPs) in taking lifestyle histories and referring to lifestyle interventions. Methods: A cross-sectional national online survey among MHPs. All mental health care institutions, hospital psychiatry departments, associations for nurse specialists, and independent working psychiatrists’ organizations in the Netherlands were invited to participate. Ordinal regression analyses were performed to study factors associated with barriers. Results: 1524 MHPs participated. Barriers were time constraints (45.3%), lack of referral possibilities (33.2%), patient disinterest (25.4%) and lack of knowledge about: effect (25.5%), availability of interventions (57.5%), lifestyle (16.9%), and reimbursement (41.5%). Facilitators included more referral possibilities (44.9%), integration of lifestyle into clinical routine (48.3%), a dedicated tool (41.5%), organizational commitment (41.2%) and lifestyle as standard treatment component (40.3%), and more knowledge about: referral possibilities (51.4%), effect (38.1%), and reimbursement (48.1%). Older MHPs, those who consider their own lifestyle important, and those working in organizations where lifestyle interventions are available experienced fewer barriers. Conclusions: Organizations should prioritize lifestyle psychiatry by educating staff, integration into clinical routine, and increasing the availability and reimbursements of interventions.

Awareness of nutrition’s role in chronic diseases is rising, demanding guidance on the diet-disease relationship. Nutritional practices become crucial for prevention, prompting healthcare professionals (HCP) to respond. The present study assessed a Culinary Medicine (CM) program’s impact on HCP’s Mediterranean diet adherence, food and diet therapy knowledge, food management skills, culinary proficiency, and counseling confidence. A mixed-methods pilot implementation program (PIP) engaged 20 HCP from Hospital Clinic Barcelona at the Alícia Foundation kitchen-lab. Four 8-hour CM sessions, held weekly, covered culinary knowledge emphasizing disease prevention and care. All twenty participants; 86% women, 14% men, 86% aged above 40, 14% between 31 and 39 years, 71% nurses, 7% medical doctors and 21% other occupation, completed the course and fourteen fulfilled pre-and post-program questionnaires. Notably, 86% had prior nutrition training, while only 14% had culinary training. After the program, there was significant improvement in Mediterranean diet adherence ( P < .05). Perceptions on dietary advice usefulness, patient-transferable knowledge acquisition, cooking techniques, and personal cooking skills confidence showed post-course improvements. This study underscores the potential of hands-on CM training in HCP nutrition education, influencing their culinary knowledge. Future studies with larger samples is needed to elucidate CM training’s impact on HCP and potential public health benefits.

Osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and sarcopenia are prevalent musculoskeletal disorders that significantly impact the aging population’s health and quality of life. Osteoarthritis, characterized by joint inflammation, leads to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. Osteoporosis, a condition marked by bone density loss, increases fracture susceptibility, especially in postmenopausal women and older adults. Sarcopenia, the age-related loss of muscle mass and function, contributes to frailty and an increased risk of falls. Combined, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis and sarcopenia constitute “Musculoskeletal Failure.” These 3 conditions share common risk factors like aging, genetics, and hormonal changes, as well as unhealthy lifestyle behaviors resulting in systemic chronic inflammation. Healthy lifestyle behaviors, including regular physical activity and a nutritious diet across the lifespan play a crucial role in the prevention and management of musculoskeletal failure. Awareness of the relationship between lifestyle behaviors, systemic chronic inflammation and the development and progression of these 3 common conditions is a key step in prevention, early detection and are essential for addressing the complex interplay of these musculoskeletal disorders. As the global population ages, understanding and effectively preventing and managing osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and sarcopenia become paramount for promoting healthy aging and mitigating the societal and economic burden associated with these conditions.

Background A limited number of studies have investigated the effects of lifestyle interventions in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). This study evaluated the effect of a novel lifestyle intervention incorporating physical activity (PA) and dietary nitrate supplementation on heart rate variability (HRV) and haemodynamic measures in HCM. Twenty-eight individuals with HCM were randomised into either the intervention or control group. Frequency-domain HRV measures including low frequency power (LF), high frequency power (HF) and LF/HF were recorded at rest using bioimpedance. Non-invasive haemodynamic variables were recorded at rest using bioreactance. Participants in the intervention group consumed 6 mmol of nitrate daily (concentrated beetroot juice) and were instructed to increase and maintain daily PA by ≥ 2000 steps/day above baseline for 16 weeks. Control group participants retained their usual lifestyle and monitored daily step counts. There was a significant increase in post-intervention HF power (7.54 ± 2.14 vs 8.78 ± 1.60 ms2, P < .01) and LF power (6.89 ± 2.33 vs 8.17 ± 1.55, P < .01) in the intervention but not in the control group. Resting mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) in the intervention group significantly reduced at follow-up (108 ± 6 vs 102 ± 7 mmHg, P < .01). A novel lifestyle intervention including PA and dietary nitrate supplementation enhanced parasympathetic activity and resting MABP in HCM.

Recently, lifestyle medicine (LSM) application has shown feasibility for musculoskeletal pain patients with co-existing lifestyle-related chronic diseases. This study describes early results of a LSM program for musculoskeletal patients with goals to optimize health prior to orthopedic surgery. Fifty-four patients (age: 61 ± 11 years; 39 [72%] females) completed the program from 3/8/22-12/1/23. Data included patient goals, utilization, goal attainment, and patient outcomes. Most patients (41/54 [76%]) enrolled with established surgical dates. Mean BMI was 43.2 ± 5.3 kg/m2, and 89% had ≥2 lifestyle-related chronic diseases. The majority reported impaired sleep (79%) and zero cumulative minutes of physical activity/week (57%). Mean program duration was 13 ± 8 weeks involving 5 ± 4 visits with members of the interprofessional team. Fifty-two (96%) patients successfully attained pre-program goals, and 49/54 (91%) met their surgical goal. Of the patients enrolled without surgical dates, 11/13 (85%) optimized their health and proceeded to surgery. Forty-two (78%) patients reported decreases in weight and BMI, averaging 11 ± 7 lbs and 1.8 ± 1.3 kg/m2, respectively. Rates of improvement in pain, PROMIS-10 physical and mental health, and PHQ-4 were 52%, 37%, 45%, and 47%, respectively. These data demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of a LSM program to address whole-person health optimization and enable orthopedic patients to improve lifestyle behaviors and proceed to orthopedic surgery.

The incidence of substance use and behavioral addictions continues to increase throughout the world. The Global Burden of Disease Study shows a growing impact in disability-adjusted life years due to substance use. Substance use impacts families, communities, health care, and legal systems; yet, the vast majority of individuals with substance use disorders do not seek treatment. Within the United States, new legislation has attempted to increase the availability of buprenorphine, but the impact of substance use continues. Although medications and group support therapy have been the mainstay of treatment for substance use, lifestyle medicine offers a valuable adjunct therapy that may help strengthen substance use recovery through healthy neuroplastic changes.
全世界药物使用和行为成瘾的发病率持续上升。全球疾病负担研究》（Global Burden of Disease Study）显示，药物使用对残疾调整生命年的影响越来越大。药物使用影响着家庭、社区、医疗保健和法律系统；然而，绝大多数药物使用障碍患者并不寻求治疗。在美国，新的立法试图增加丁丙诺啡的供应，但药物使用的影响仍在继续。虽然药物和团体支持疗法一直是药物使用治疗的主流，但生活方式医学提供了一种宝贵的辅助疗法，可通过健康的神经可塑性变化帮助加强药物使用的康复。

Effective dietary interventions are vital for combating morbidity and mortality, necessitating reliable assessment tools. This article explores diverse dietary assessment methods, emphasizing their complexities and applications. Food Frequency Questionnaires (FFQs) offer insights into dietary habits over specified periods but require validation for target populations. Traditional Food Records provide detailed insights but are labor-intensive and prone to underreporting. Technology-based and technology-assisted records offer efficient alternatives, leveraging mobile apps and wearable sensors, albeit with access and privacy concerns. 24 hour Dietary Recall (24HR) methods capture detailed intake within a day, with traditional and technology-assisted approaches strengthening population studies. The Automated Multi-Pass Method (AMPM) and technology-assisted ASA24 represent traditional and contemporary 24HR methodologies, respectively, both yielding comprehensive dietary data. In conclusion, dietary assessments are crucial for understanding dietary patterns and health implications. Integration of novel technologies streamlines data collection and analysis, enhancing researchers’ ability to accurately gauge short- and long-term dietary impacts. Proper utilization of these tools empowers researchers to make informed decisions regarding dietary interventions and public health initiatives.
