✏️Idiopathic Slow Transit Constipation: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and Management
🎓by Luke J. Vlismas
📊 16 citations | 🔎 12429 views

Abstract: Slow transit constipation (STC) has an estimated prevalence of 2–4% of the general population, and although it is the least prevalent of the chronic constipation phenotypes, it more commonly causes refractory symptoms and is associated with significant psychosocial stress, poor quality of life, and high healthcare costs. This review provides an overview of the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management options in STC. [...]

💪 Myth-busting alert! 🤯 High-protein diets have long been blamed for kidney damage, bone loss, diabetes, and even shorter lifespans—but a fresh perspective in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition finds these fears are largely unproven in healthy adults. Context is everything: total calories, calcium intake, protein sources, and study design all shape outcomes. Rather than panicking, focus on balanced meals, quality protein, and nuanced science over sensational headlines. Got questions? Drop them below…

The Effects of Nutrition on Linear Growth Linear growth is a complex process and is considered one of the best indicators of children’s well-being and health. Genetics, epigenetics and environment (mainly stress and availability of nutrients) are the main regulators of growth. Nutrition exerts its effects on growth throughout the cour...

*Not that there’s anything wrong with being bald.⁣
⁣
The myth that creatine supplementation makes you go bald stems from a 2009 study suggesting that creatine increased serum DHT.[PMID:19741313] ⁣
⁣
Importantly, creatine didn’t result in hair loss  — there was just an apparent effect on DHT.⁣
⁣
A study published just a few days ago randomized 45 resistance-trained males to 5g/day of creatine monohydrate or a placebo for 12 weeks, and assessed hair thickness, density, number of hair follicles, as well as total testosterone, free testosterone, and DHT. There were no differences between groups in any outcomes.[PMID:40265319]⁣
⁣
There is NO data to support a link between baldness and creatine supplementation other than a single 2009 study assessing DHT. The 2009 study was of a shorter duration and had a smaller sample size than the more recent study, vindicating creatine.⁣
⁣
Creatine is one of the few supplements that reliably increase lifting performance and, thereby, hypertrophy outcomes (albeit the effect is relatively small).[PMID:37432300]⁣

Vitamin D and Obesity/Adiposity—A Brief Overview of Recent Studies Observational studies classically find an inverse relationship between human plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentration and obesity. However, interventional and genetic studies have failed to provide clear conclusions on the causal effect of vitamin D on obesity/adiposity. Likewise, vitamin D suppleme...
