For studies of a similar design and which assessed the same outcomes in similar population groups , we report the potential for the combining of data across studies in systematic review s. CONCLUSIONS This scoping review has revealed the extensive evidence base for many outcomes which could be the focus of systematic review s exploring the health effects of conventional yogurt consumption
BACKGROUND The health effects of conventional yogurt have been investigated for over a century ; however , few systematic review s have been conducted to assess the extent of the health benefits of yogurt .
OBJECTIVE The aim of this scoping review was to assess the volume of available evidence on the health effects of conventional yogurt .
Gastrointestinal transit, post-prandial lipaemia and satiety following 3 days high-fat diet in men
Background / Objectives : High-fat ( HF ) diets of 2 weeks have been shown to accelerate gastric emptying ( GE ) . To date , no studies have shown any alteration in GE following shorter HF diets . The aim of this study was to assess if an HF , high-energy diet of 3 days can adapt gastrointestinal ( GI ) transit , blood lipids and satiety . Subjects/ Methods : Eleven male volunteers participated in a study consisting of three , 3-day interventions each separated by a test day . During the first intervention , volunteers recorded their diet . In the second and third interventions , volunteers repeated their food diary plus either a low-fat yogurt or HF yogurt supplement in r and omized order . Test days involved measurement of GE using the 13C octanoic-acid breath-test , mouth-to-caecum transit time ( MCTT ) using the inulin H2 breath test and satiety using visual analogue scales . Blood sample s for measurement of lipaemia were taken using a venous cannula . Results : MCTT was different between the three test days ( P=0.038 ) , with the shortest MCTT following the HF intervention . GE was shortest following the HF intervention . There were no differences in satiety between the interventions . The HF intervention reduced triglycerides , total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol , and increased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol . Conclusion : This study shows that changes in GI transit owing to an HF diet can occur in a time period as short as 3 days
