"It might sound like bad advice, but for Japanese men, eating a high-carb diet could actually be a good thing—only, it depends on the type of carb. Because eating too much of the wrong ones could have dire consequences. These are the findings reported by Professor Chisato Nagata and colleagues from the Gifu University Graduate School of Medicine in Japan—recipients of the inaugural British Journal of Nutrition Paper of the Year award. Their paper, published in volume 122, issue 7 of BJN, describes a subset of results from the Takayama Study. The study was launched in 1992 to link dietary and lifestyle factors to morbidity from cancer and other diseases. Participants filled out a questionnaire at baseline on how frequently they ate various foods..."

Short Description:
This book explores how Airbnb has developed from its early days as a niche accommodation provider to the alternative traveller segment to a mainstream booking platform for short-term accommodation and other travel-related services. Every chapter discusses three distinct periods of time: the time before, during and after COVID-19. The pandemic has disrupted Airbnb’s growth and expansion trajectory, leading Airbnb to focus once again on the key to its success: local communities.

"Uncontrolled hypertension is a leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Despite available treatments, less than half of those with hypertension have optimal blood pressure control, with that percentage continuing to go down. Self-measured blood pressure monitoring (or SMBP) with clinical supports is one effective way of controlling blood pressure. Unfortunately, in the US, as few as 25% of adults with hypertension measure their blood pressure at home, and even fewer follow an [evidence-based protocol] to take regular home measurements and share them with their care team. Limited use of SMBP is due to a variety of barriers that both patients and their health care provider teams encounter. In search of ways to improve these poor statistics, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Association of Community Health Centers, the YMCA of the USA, and the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials conducted a pilot project in nine community health centers across three states..."

This presentation aims to increase the students knowledge of physical inactivity and how it’s a major risk factor for developing diabetes, independent of body weight. Moreover we’ll discuss how we fight the global burden of a physical inactive lifestyle.

Course responsible: Associate Professor Signe Sørensen Torekov, MD Nicolai Wewer Albrechtsen & Professor Jens Juul Holst

This presentation talks about which role exercise plays in developing diabetes. We will describe what happens in the body when we exercise, and why these changes help us prevent and treat diabetes. In continuation of this we’ll talk about the interaction between insulin, glucose and muscle cells and how we through exercise, can change our health. Furthermore we’ll discuss how lifestyle can affect one’s future children in terms of developing diabetes later on.

Narrator: Richard Steed.

In this presentation, we will explore the sociological aspects of accepting a new diet such as the New Nordic Diet. As you may know the OPUS study is working towards creating a new healthy Nordic food culture in Denmark, to do this, OPUS is developing, testing and disseminating a New Nordic Diet to the public.

This presentation introduces factors for maintaining a healthy lifestyle. In continuation of this, we will discuss the rationale for including measurements of activity and sleep in the OPUS School Meal Study. Furthermore, we will describe the methods used to quantify physical activity and sleep. Finally, we will highlight the important ongoing data analyses from the physical activity and sleep measurements.

"A recent study published in the British Journal of Nutrition suggests that enterolactone, an estrogen-like compound formed by the breakdown of whole grains and other plant-based foods by gut bacteria, could protect against the risk of death due to colorectal cancer—at least, for women. For men, just the opposite could be true: high concentrations of the compound might actually increase that risk. The findings, published as part of a special issue on nutrition and cancer, point to a potentially significant link between diet and survival after colorectal cancer that warrants a much closer look by researchers. The authors of the study reached those conclusions by examining data from the “Diet, Cancer and Health” study, an ongoing cohort study of older men and women in Denmark. Specifically, they compared the death outcomes of people with varying levels of enterolactone in their blood plasma, before being diagnosed with colorectal cancer..."

"The candidate phyla radiation (CPR) is a lineage of bacteria with unusual ribosomal structures, reduced metabolic capacities, small genomes, and small cell sizes. Due to these traits, this phylum — also called Patescibacteria — is thought to be host-associated, and there are only a few cultivated representatives. Most CPR genomes originated from groundwater, but they also can be found in surface freshwater, where they remain largely understudied. To close this gap, a recent study examined CPRs from freshwater lakes in Europe and Asia with deep metagenomic sequencing, as well as the first use of Fluorescence in situ Hybridization followed by Catalyzed Reporter Deposition (CARD-FISH) to view CPRs in freshwater. Like previously described CPR members, the lineages in this study had reduced genome sizes, low abundance, and slow estimated replication rates..."

In this activity students will discuss the phenomena of having a “side hustle.” Students will begin by playing a game where they try to guess different jobs based on their description, then will watch a video about “side hustles” in China/Taiwan and then discuss their opinions about “side hustles.”

In this lab, students will learn how to describe their day and their actions. They will also learn how to explain the reason behind the action. Students will learn how to ask questions about a classmate's day and will be able to answer the question. 

In this activity, students will discuss their hobbies. They will be able to describe their schedule and daily activities. Students will also be able to discuss preferences they have about their daily activities. Students will learn to ask others questions about their schedule and daily activities.
