Effects of Iodine Intake on Human Health
Iodine, a key component of thyroid hormones, is considered an essential micronutrient for proper health at all life stages. Indeed, an inadequate dietary intake of iodine is responsible for several functional and developmental abnormalities. The most serious consequences of iodine deficiency include hypothyroidism, early abortion, low birth weight, preterm delivery, neurocognitive impairment, and mental retardation. On the other hand, the consequences of mild-to-moderate iodine deficiency, such as goiter, are less well understood but represent an important priority for research and public health practice. Over the last several decades, many countries across the globe have introduced mandatory salt iodization programs, which have dramatically reduced the number of iodine-deficient countries. However, despite substantial progress worldwide, mild-to-moderate deficiency is still prevalent even in many developed countries. Thus, the ongoing monitoring of the population iodine status remains crucially important, and attention may need to be paid to vulnerable life stage groups.
Handbook of Nanotechnology in Nutraceuticals
Nanotechnology has been emerging as an important tool in the nutraceutical and food industries to improve the overall quality of life. Nanotechnology has established a new horizon by bestowing modified properties on nanomaterials and applying them to the production of nanoformulations, nutritional supplements, and the food industry. The Handbook of Nanotechnology in Nutraceuticals highlights the impact of nanotechnology on the food industries. The book focuses on the application of nanotechnology in nutraceuticals and the food industry to improve the overall quality of life. The book also addresses some important applications of nano-nutraceuticals in the treatment of different diseases, suc...
Trends in Teaching Experimentation in the Life Sciences
This book is a guide for educators on how to develop and evaluate evidence-based strategies for teaching biological experimentation to thereby improve existing and develop new curricula. It unveils the flawed assumptions made at the classroom, department, and institutional level about what students are learning and what help they might need to develop competence in biological experimentation. Specific case studies illustrate a comprehensive list of key scientific competencies that unpack what it means to be a competent experimental life scientist. It includes explicit evidence-based guidelines for educators regarding the teaching, learning, and assessment of biological research competencies....
Mediterranean Diet and Physical Activity as Healthy Lifestyles for Human Health
Over the last few decades, the Mediterranean Diet (MD), characterized by a high intake of vegetables, legumes, fruits, nuts, dairy products and non-refined cereals, a moderate intake of fish and poultry, and a low intake of red meat and sweets, has been recognized as a model for healthy eating. Indeed, adhering to the MD reduces the risk of metabolic and non-communicable diseases, including type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, obesity cardiovascular disease and cancer. As an integral part of the traditional Mediterranean lifestyle, regular physical activity (PA) is also associated with a reduced risk of chronic degenerative diseases, even if results often vary according to different types, d...

Autophagy: Cancer, Other Pathologies, Inflammation, Immunity, Infection, and Aging
Understanding the importance and necessity of the role of autophagy in health and disease is vital for the studies of cancer, aging, neurodegeneration, immunology, and infectious diseases. Comprehensive and forward-thinking, these books offer a valuable guide to both cellular processes while inciting researchers to explore their potentially important connections. Volume 8 Autophagy and Human Diseases, concentrates on the role of Autophagy in human diseases, including tumorigenesis. The diseases discussed include melanoma, liver cancer, pancreatic cancer, and neurodegenerative disorders. Loss of autophagy in the central nervous system causes neurodegeneration (Alzheimers disease, Huntingtonâ€...

Calabria - Vibo Valentia
Vibo Valentia is the provincial capital city, which enjoys a geographical position of extraordinary attractive value with its port with a tourist and commercial vocation among the best equipped between Salerno and Reggio Calabria, with a harbor master's office which is among the largest in Italy; a city that has a rich ancient history, important memories, first of all needs to work on its vocations to grow and develop in harmony with the new social reality. For the landscape beauties and historical testimonies, Vibo Valentia is undoubtedly a city dedicated to tourism: cultural, archaeological, religious tourism that becomes a primary resource for our territory. The historic center of Vibo Va...
Calabria - Vibo Valentia
La città di Vibo Valentia è incredibilmente ricca di storia e, come poche altre in Italia e in Europa può vantare tre distinti periodi storici che ancora oggi convivono con importanti reperti archeologici. Il primo periodo è quello greco, il secondo è quello romano, il terzo è quello medievale. La guida racconta le vicende della città e descrive i preziosi reperti trovati.
