So, is one healthier than the other? Sardines are higher in protein, calories, and fat per serving, and they contain more vitamin B12 as well as trace minerals like magnesium, zinc, iron, and phosphorous. Canned anchovies have five times more sodium than sardines, due to their unique processing. However, anchovies are a bit more nutrient-dense than sardines thanks to their small size.

Depending on where the flies had been before, they can leave behind pathogenic microbes on the food they land on and get people sick.  Image credit:©iStock, EyeEm Mobile GmbHMost people find it off-putting when flies land on the food they’re about to eat. But how much damage can a single housefly really do? This question has two important components, said Kevin Verstrepen, a geneticist and microbiologist at the Flemish Institute for Biotechnology and the Catholic University of Leuven. First, how many microbes does a single fly typically carry? And second, how many microbes does it take to get people sick?How Many…

The Innovation Institute for Food and Health (IIFH) at the University of California (UC) Davis, US, has recently partnered with foundational nutrition company AG1 to accelerate product development for nutrition and metabolic health innovations and commercialize research discoveries. The partnership aims to bridge the gap between academia and industry by developing science-based nutritional innovations for improved metabolic health. AG1 and IIFH will combine advanced omics analytics with product development to match nutrients from ingredients with the specific needs of a target population. Nutrition Insight speaks with Kat Cole, CEO of AG1, and Dr. Justin Siegel, IIFH faculty director and professor of…

Current emission reduction efforts set the world on course to reach about 3.1°C above pre-industrial temperatures by 2100. Even if countries take further action and fully deliver on existing national climate targets for 2030, this would still lead to an increase of 2.3-2.5°C.1 Temperature rises of this scale would cause catastrophic climate and health harms. Already, many countries’ healthcare…

Yes, all natural rice varieties (white, brown, wild, basmati, jasmine) are naturally gluten-free. But cross-contamination and added ingredients in flavored or processed rice products can introduce gluten. Always check for a certified gluten-free label if you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. However, gluten can be introduced in two main ways: Added Ingredients: Flavored or “instant” rice mixes (like rice pilaf or seasoned packets) often contain gluten-based ingredients like hydrolyzed wheat protein or barley-based flavorings. Cross-Contamination: Rice can be contaminated with gluten during processing (if milled on shared equipment with wheat) or during cooking (if prepared with gluten-containing ingredients like…
