Effect of dietary components on gastrocolonic response

Aim Nutritional changes are often considered first line treatment in public health diseases which apply to many gastrointestinal disorders, since different food and beverages may modulate gastrointestinal (GI) motor and sensory functions, and provoke GI symptoms. The aim of this study was to examine dietary coping and possible changes of food and beverages intakes in relation to GI symptoms reported by identified IBS patients compared to healthy controls and if any gender differences were seen in these respects.Methods A population-based case-control design was used. Three primary health care centres in the city of Linköping in Sweden. The IBS cases were recruited from the studied primary health care centres based on diagnoses from computerized medical records. The controls were randomly selected from the general population in the same region. A questionnaire was used with specific questions about self-reported food and beverages increase or decrease of GI symptoms and self-reported changes in dietary habits.Results Female IBS-cases appear to be more willing to change dietary habits due to their GI-problems than males. Effects of these nutritional behaviour changes were reported for almost all participants that had made dietary adjustments. Fatty food, certain vegetables, dairy products and egg were significantly more reported to cause GI complaints among IBS-cases compared to their controls.Conclusions Female IBS-cases reported more changes in their dietary habits due to GI-problems than males with the disease. The majority of both females and males that changed their dietary habits due to GI problems experienced symptoms improvement.

“…Although fat or oil are often stated as affecting gastrooesophagial reflux disease, a systematic review of the literature failed to find an effect of fat consumption (Dent et al 2005). In addition, fat has a unique ability to stimulate colonic contraction, not found for carbohydrate or protein, and these contractions are essential to the voiding of faeces (Wright et al 1980). Indeed, remedies for constipation before the Second World War recommended, in addition to 'roughage', water and the avoidance of diuretics, the consumption of fat such as bacon fat, butter, or olive oil, especially if the faeces was small and dry (Hutchison 1936), and for spastic colon no fibre and large amounts of the above listed fat was recommended.…”

Abstract.Humans hunt or raise a wide variety of animals for meat, which vary from free-range to intensively reared. These animals form a valuable part of human nutrition. Their tissues, including the fat, contain vitamin and other essential nutrients necessary for health. However, animal fat from ruminants and other land mammals is usually regarded as saturated. The purpose of this review is partly to examine the basis for the saturated fat hypothesis of cardiovascular disease given more recent research, to examine the human health effects of animal fats, and partly to draw into one place the diverse knowledge about animal fat and the effects of fat on metabolism. Mechanistic understanding of the initiation of the fatty streak and atherosclerosis calls into question the avoidance of ruminant or porcine fat. Due to high levels of oleic acid, a low n-6 : n-3 fatty acid ratio in some groups, and the presence of specific micronutrients including vitamins and essential fatty acids, animal fats are of benefit in human nutrition. Animal fats can be obtained in minimally processed form making them a convenient source of energy and micronutrients.

O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar o padrão eletromiográfico do reflexo gastrocólico no cólon esquerdo (sigmóide), através da avaliação da atividade elétrica de controle (AEC), atividade elétrica de resposta (AER) e complexo motor migrante (CMM). Foram avaliadas 15 pacientes, do sexo feminino, submetidas à histerectomia, sem alteração clínica do trato gastrointestinal. A idade média foi de 40,2 anos. As pacientes foram controles de si próprias, tendo sido comparado o período pré com o per e pósprandial. Eletrodos bipolares cobertos por Téflon foram implantados a nível da tênia anterior do cólon esquerdo. Após a recuperação do íleo paralítico, realizou-se a coleta dos dados. Foi utilizado um sistema de aquisição de dados (DATA Q Série 200), que captou frequência entre 0,02 a 10 Hz e um software de análise de dados, (WINDAQ 200) que funcionou no ambiente Windows. Os resultados obtidos evidenciaram que a AEC e AER de curta duração (n/h) não apresentaram diferença estatística. A AER de longa duração (n/h, apresentou uma diminuição estatisticamente significativa. O CMM apresentou aumento estatístico. A conclusão do estudo foi que houve diminuição da atividade elétrica de resposta colônica de longa duração e um aumento da atividade motora do cólon esquerdc após a alimentação.
