“…Larson-Meyer et al ( 7 ) demonstrated that participants' average consumption of vitamin D from foods and beverages was between 341 ± 228 IUs ( n = 86) and 584 ± 589 IUs ( n = 49), dependent on the season; fall, winter or spring. Although, the findings from this study showed that reported average vitamin D consumption was higher from foods and beverages compared to other studies that had reported vitamin D consumption between 68 IUs ( 37 ) and 178 IUs ( 30 ). This discrepancy may exist due to the different instruments used to obtain vitamin D intake.…”

Exaggerated anticipatory anxiety is common in social anxiety disorder (SAD). Neuroimaging studies have revealed altered neural activity in response to social stimuli in SAD, but fewer studies have examined neural activity during anticipation of feared social stimuli in SAD. The current study examined the time course and magnitude of activity in threat processing brain regions during speech anticipation in socially anxious individuals and healthy controls (HC). Method Participants (SAD n = 58; HC n = 16) underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during which they completed a 90s control anticipation task and 90s speech anticipation task.

“…When comparing vegan, vegetarian and semi-vegetarian diets, vegans were found to have the highest diet quality scores, which is consistent with other studies (2,5,7,24) . Mean HEI scores in the literature ranged from 65·4 to 70·9 in vegans, 58·7 to 60·9 in vegetarians and 59·4 in semi-vegetarians (2,24) . In comparison, the mean HEI-2015 score of the US population was 56·6 (28) .…”

“…While Torna et al. (24) have investigated the relationship between diet motives and diet quality in vegetarians, our study is novel in that it differentiated between vegans and vegetarians and included semi-vegetarians. Those following plant-based dietary patterns often report multiple motives to dietary adherence and using the FCQ allowed several motives to be measured rather than requiring participants to choose their top motive (26,31) .…”

“…Interesting findings provided by Wirnitzer et al (2022) demonstrated that among marathon runners with different dietary regimens, vegans had a higher tendency toward the consumption of frequently recommended food groups in favor of health [68]. These results are in line with growing evidence that well-designed plant-based diets can fulfill the nutritional requirements considering health and a successful endurance performance [68][69][70].…”
