Background and Aims: Both alcoholic drinks and high sugar-containing soft drinks cause major health problems worldwide. Oral administration of OS and M1 soy-derived extracts has been shown to alleviate liver injury in animal models. The aim of the present study was to determine the liver- and sugar-protective effect of OS and M1 soy-derived extracts when added to alcohol and sugar-enriched drinks.Methods: Mice were treated with alcohol or high sugar-containing drinks, with and without administration of a combination of OS and M1 soy extracts. Mice were observed for the effects on liver injury, glucose metabolism, and the immune system.Results: Co-administration of the soy extracts OS and M1 significantly alleviated the liver injury induced by acute alcohol, as evidenced by decreased liver enzymes. These beneficial effects were associated with promotion of subsets of regulatory T lymphocytes and with a trend towards a pro-inflammatory to an anti-inflammatory cytokine shift. Co-administration of OS M1 soy extracts with sugar-sweetened beverages significantly alleviated the increases in serum sugar levels.Conclusions: OS and M1 extracts exert a synergistic hepato- and glucose-protective effect in models of alcohol-induced liver damage and soft drinks-associated increases in serum glucose. These extracts may provide a solution to the two pressing health problems.

“…There is no broader curriculum in Food and Health in Norway. The great majority of adolescents can effective be reached through school, which is an appropriate arena for health promotion (Kriemler, Meyer, Martin, Van Sluijs, Andersen, 2011;Anttila, Rytkönen,, Kankaanpää,, Tolvanen, & Lahti, 2015). Food and Health is taught as a separate school subject in the sixth and ninth grades, for three hours per week.…”

This study describes the teachers' experiences and views regarding the extent to which the subject food and health promotes health in lower secondary schools. The teachers wish to build their teaching on the pupils' assumptions and references, but they find this problematical because they have little or no knowledge of their pupils. In addition to support from the homes, the teachers point to sufficient economic resources in the schools, as well as resources in the shape of time and collegial support, as important factors in the realization of the subject. Although the teachers feel that they have the support they need in their work, very few have the organizational structures to lean on in their work, so that cooperation is barely internalized. Health-promoting work should be anchored throughout the organization, to achieve sufficient strength and effectiveness. Structural relationships within the organization, through organization management, are important for the teachers' work with the subject.
