Dans les pays industrialisés où règne l'abondance, certains groupes de personnes, notamment les étudiants, éprouvent des difficultés à s'alimenter de manière équilibrée et en quantité suffisante. Pourtant, l'alimentation est un droit fondamental jouant un rôle essentiel dans la santé des individus. Dès lors, nous aimerions permettre à la plupart des étudiants en situation de précarité de s'alimenter de manière équilibrée compte tenu de leur budget. Pour cela, nous aimerions, tout d'abord, connaître leurs représentations sociales et leurs besoins à ce sujet.Pour répondre à notre question de recherche « Quels sont les représentations sociales et les besoins en matière d'alimentation auprès d'étudiants en situation de précarité ? », nous avons opté pour la méthode qualitative. Treize entretiens semi-directifs ont été réalisés auprès d'étudiants en situation de précarité, réalisant leur cursus à l'Université catholique de Louvain sur le site de Louvain-la-Neuve. Nous avons atteint notre population visée par l'intermédiaire du Service social d'aide aux étudiants de l'UCL (UN). Parmi les étudiants interrogés, dix bénéficient d'une aide alimentaire via l'accès à une épicerie sociale, les trois autres perçoivent le Revenu d'intégration Social du CPAS. Les questions posées lors des interviews sont issues d'un guide d'entretien conçu sur base d'un tableau de correspondances. Ce dernier s'est construit en accord avec la revue critique de la littérature. Il comprend des .catégories et sous catégories prédéfinies en fonction de l'objectif général et des objectifs spécifiques de notre recherche. Les réponses obtenues ont été analysées de manière descriptive puis interprétative.L'alimentation est considérée comme primordiale pour la majorité des étudiants interrogés, même si elle n'est pas une priorité pour tous. La plupart considèrent ne pas être suffisamment informés sur le sujet et souhaitent en apprendre davantage sur les aliments et sur la manière de les cuisiner. Des recettes rapides de plats équilibrés et peu onéreux, ainsi que des conseils sur la manière de s'alimenter, intéressent les participants de notre recherche. La majorité d'entre eux trouve qu'il n'est pas facile d'adopter des habitudes alimentaires équilibrées. Les contraintes majeures révélées lors de nos treize entretiens ont été clairement identifiées et relèvent du temps, du coût des aliments et des ressources financières. Ces difficultés sont de l'ordre de l'accessibilité temporelle, géographique et économique. La finalité de cette recherche étant l'élaboration et la mise en place d'actions de sensibilisation à l'alimentation équilibrée qui soient pertinentes et cohérentes au regard des besoins des étudiants en situation financière difficile, nous avons pu dégager certaines pistes d'action des réponses obtenues, à savoir : Informer sur le campus ; exploiter les modes de communication modernes ; aborder les principes de l'alimentation équilibrée lors de certains cours ; et proposer des ateliers ou des conférences en offrant la première séance gratuite puis les suivantes à un prix abordable.

This objective of this narrative review is to study the involvement of the high fat diet and microbiota in postoperative complications. Studies have highlighted that inflammation, and in particular its non-resolution is associated to more infectious and cardiovascular complications, and this both in abdominal to more infectious and cardiovascular complications, and this both in abdominal surgery and orthopedic surgery. We have carried out research on PubMed literature to ascertain whether there is a link between microbiota and postoperative complications via inflammation, and this to evaluate the interest of setting up an observational study in which we would modify the microbiota in perioperative to decrease postoperative complications. However, that intestinal microbiota is associated to more postoperative complications with eventually inflammation as mediator, still seems unclear. The studies that we have read in the context of this memoire give promising conclusions in this domain, but are still insufficient to establish a solid link; In strategies designed to modify the intestinal microbiota, several studies have shown that a high fat diet is responsible for a decrease in the number of beneficial bacteria for humans. The use of prebiotics, probiotics, and symbiotics would restore the levels of “good” bacteria. However, the nature of the biological mediators involved in postoperative complications is still unclear. In addition, we lack studies on patients with a normal weight. Cette « narrative review » a été réalisée dans le but d'étudier l'implication de l'high fat diet et du microbiote intestinal dans les complications postopératoires. Des études ont mis en évidence que l'inflammation, et en particulier sa non-résolution est associée à davantage de complications infectieuses et cardiovasculaires et ceci tant en chirurgie abdominale qu'en chirurgie orthopédique. Nous avons recherché dans la littérature sur PubMed s'il existait un lien entre le microbiote et les complications postopératoires via l'inflammation et ceci dans le but d'évaluer l'intérêt de la mise en place d'une étude observationnelle dans laquelle l'on modifierait le microbiote intestinal en peropératoire pour diminuer les complications postopératoires. Cependant, que le microbiote intestinal soit associé à davantage de complications postopératoires avec éventuellement comme médiateur l'inflammation, semble encore peu clair. Les études que nous avons pu lire dans le cadre de ce mémoire donnent des conclusions prometteuses quant à la recherche dans ce domaine, mais restent insuffisantes pour établir un lien solide. Dans les stratégies visant à modifier le microbiote intestinal, plusieurs études ont mis en évidence qu'un régime riche en graisse entrainait une diminution du nombre de bactéries bénéfiques pour l'homme. L'utilisation de prébiotiques , probiotiques et symbiotiques permettrait de restaurer ce taux de « bonnes » bactéries. Cependant, ces études ont été réalisées principalement chez des sujets obèses et atteints de diabète de type 2. Nous pouvons conclure que modifier le microbiote en peropératoire pour diminuer les complications postopératoires chez les patients, est prometteur. Néanmoins, la nature des médiateurs biologiques impliqués dans les complications postopératoires est encore peu claire. De plus, nous manquons d'études sur des patients ayant un poids normal.

Energy metabolism at whole-body, cellular, and even organelle, i.e., mitochondrial, levels requires adequate regulation in order to maintain or improve (metabolic) health. In eukaryotic cells, mitochondria are key players in energy (ATP) production via oxidative phosphorylation. Both macro- and micronutrients potentially influence energy metabolism and mitochondrial functioning, either as substrates for (oxidative) catabolism or as essential constituents of enzymes or protein complexes involved in (mitochondrial) energy metabolism. This book contains a valuable collection of empirical preclinical and human studies to assist in the development of understanding and progress this area of research on improving health and, more specifically, metabolic health.

The postprandial period is the metabolic phase that directly follows the ingestion of a meal. This period is critical to the handling of nutrients to feed the body throughout the whole day but it is also a time of challenge for the body’s metabolism, which has to be flexible and adaptable regarding the quantity and the quality of the nutrient intake. Changes in postprandial metabolism have been considered to be potential early markers in the pathophysiological course, finally leading to an increased risk of disease development. This book aimed to broaden and add to the research on the importance of postprandial metabolism in nutrition. The book includes literature reviews that cover the broad state of the art of our knowledge about postprandial metabolism, fine original studies of the complex changes in metabolism, and the physiological processes that are considered to drive the onset of pathogenesis. Finally, a series of examples on how nutrient content (especially proteins, sucrose, and lipids) can influence the postprandial metabolism over a wide range of phenomena operating during the postprandial period and how they could contribute to tipping the body towards adverse health processes.

Obesity and related co-morbidities are increasing worldwide and pose a serious health problem. Changes in lifestyle and diet would be the best remedies to fight obesity; however, many people will still rely on medical aid. Marine organisms have been prolific in the production of bioactive compounds for many diseases, e.g., cancer, and promise to be an excellent source for natural-derived molecules and novel nutraceuticals. Bioactive compounds with beneficial activities towards obesity have been described from diverse marine organism including marine algae, bacteria, sponges, fungi, crustaceans or fish. This Special Issue will highlight the progress in the following topics: Bioactive compounds for the treatment of obesity and obesity-related co-morbidities (diabetes, fatty liver, hyperlipidemia) from marine organisms; the isolation of novel compounds, the bioactivity screening of marine organisms and the elucidation of molecular mode of action of marine bioactive compounds.
