“…Education, one of the components of SES, remained the strongest predictor of these unhealthy behaviors [38][39][40]42], suggesting future intervention programs to take targeted measures to reduce unhealthy behaviors, according to education attainment status. Although no signi cant differences in short sleep duration and sedentary behaviors were observed by SES in this study, we found much higher rate of short sleep duration and sedentary behaviors in our study population than the general population in southeast of China in other studies [41,43], drawing our attention to the impact of short sleep duration and sedentary behaviors on health among this special population [9]. We found differences in dietary habits including eating behavior habits and food consumption patterns by gender, age and SES.…”

“…In addition, we found ' sh and nut' and 'smoked and pickled foods, and dessert' patterns were mainly observed among the ≥ 51 y males in L-SES group. High intake of sugars, and pickled or smoked foods may increase such risk [9,22,50,51], but sh consumption was associated with a reduced risk of all-cause mortality [52]. Available study has pointed out that males have a higher liking for sweets than females [53].…”

“…Dietary habits are the habitual decisions of individuals or group of people regarding what foods they eat [8]. Some unhealthy dietary habits (e.g., eating midnight snack and consuming pickled foods) have been shown to be associated with a higher risk of cancer [9][10][11]. The importance of healthy behaviors and dietary habits is underscored by the US Affordable Health Care Act, which provides unprecedented universal coverage for preventive behavioral and dietary health services [12].…”

BackgroundHealth-related behaviors and dietary habits have played essential roles in shaping population health and are related to morbidity or mortality. We aimed to estimate the distribution of health-related behaviors and dietary habits by socio-demographics among governmental employees in China.MethodA total of 5029 participants were included in this study. Information on their sociodemographic characteristics, health-related behaviors and dietary habits was collected. Socioeconomic status (SES) scores were calculated by multiplying ordinal numerical values assigned to consecutive categories of education level and annual household income. Adjusted multinomial logistic regression analysis and categorical principal component analysis were used to estimate differences in health-related behaviors and dietary habits by socio-demographics.ResultsThe distribution of health-related behaviors and dietary habits varied by sociodemographic groups. Middle-aged males (41–60 years) were more likely to smoke, use alcohol and have short sleep duration. Young participants (≤ 30 years) were more likely to have multiple unhealthy behaviors and dietary habits. Those in high-SES have a lower level of smoking and leisure-time physical inactivity, but a high level of late sleeping than those in low-SES. Notably, older males (≥ 51 y) with low-SES preferred the ‘smoked and pickled foods, and dessert’ and ‘fish and nut’ pattern. In high-SES groups, 41–50 y people preferred the ‘traditional foods’ and ‘cereals and dairy product’ pattern. No difference in dietary patterns by socio-demographics were found among females.ConclusionsOur findings of the disparity distribution of health-related behaviors and dietary habits by specific-gender, age and SES among Chinses governmental employees have important policy implications for developing targeted health interventions to facilitate health-related behaviors and dietary habits in this population.

“…The epidemiologic studies are also limited and provide controversial results. For example, case-control studies conducted in China demonstrated that vinegar ingestion was associated with a decreased risk for esophageal [ 130 ] and non-cardia stomach cancer [ 131 ], but vinegar ingestion was also associated with a 4.4-fold greater risk of bladder cancer in a case-control study in Serbia [ 132 ]. Therefore, a case-by-case evaluation is necessary to assess the anticancer activity of cereal vinegars.…”

Vinegar has been used for its health promoting properties since antiquity. Nowadays, these properties are investigated, scientifically documented, and highlighted. The health benefits of vinegar have been associated with the presence of a variety of bioactive components such as acetic acid and other organic acids, phenolic compounds, amino acids, carotenoids, phytosterols, vitamins, minerals, and alkaloids, etc. These components are known to induce responses in the human body, such as antioxidant, antidiabetic, antimicrobial, antitumor, antiobesity, antihypertensive, and anti-inflammatory effects. The diversity and levels of bioactive components in vinegars depend on the raw material and the production method used. Cereal vinegars, which are more common in the Asia-Pacific region, are usually made from rice, although other cereals, such as millet, sorghum, barley, malt, wheat, corn, rye, oats, bran and chaff, are also used. A variety of bioactive components, such as organic acids, polyphenols, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, alkaloids, melanoidins, butenolides, and specific compounds such as γ-oryzanol, tetramethylpyrazine, γ-aminobutyric acid, etc., have been associated with the health properties of cereal vinegars. In this work, the bioactive components and the related health effects of cereal vinegars are reviewed, and the most recent scientific literature is presented and discussed.

“…It remains the most prevalent cancer in Eastern Asia, including China, Japan, and Korea [3]. Although the incidence rate of gastric cancer has been decreasing for several decades owing to the changing of unhealthy behaviour, the improvement in disease awareness, and the elimination of H. pylori [4][5][6], the incidence and mortality rate of gastric cancer was 679.1 and 498.0 per 100 000, respectively [7]. Gastric cancer is still identified as the leading cause of cancer deaths in China [8].…”

Gastric precancerous lesions (GPLs) are an essential precursor in the occurrence and development of gastric cancer, known to be one of the most common and lethal cancers worldwide. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has a positive prospect for the prevention and therapy of GPL owing to several advantages including a definite curative effect, fewer side effects compared to other treatments, multiple components, and holistic regulation. Despite these characteristic advantages, the mechanisms of TCM in treating GPL have not been fully elucidated. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge with respect to herbal formulations and the therapeutic mechanisms of TCM active ingredients for GPL. This paper elaborates on the mechanisms of TCM underlying the prevention and treatment of GPL, specifically those that are linked to anti-H. pylori, anti-inflammation, antiproliferation, proapoptotic, antioxidation, antiglycolytic, and antiangiogenesis effects.
