Research Shows Potential Impact of DuPont™ Betafin® on Fat Metabolism

For more than two decades, DuPont scientists have been at the forefront of studying the physiological effects of betaine and developing products that relieve metabolic stress situations in the body, including those caused by consumption of a high-fat diet. Betaine, a N-trimethylated amino acid, is produced in various plant species as a response to e.g., environmental stresses such as dehydration. It functions as an essential nutrient for methylation, a key process in metabolism, and is one of the most powerful organic osmolytes found in living organisms (helping cells to adapt to osmotic stresses such as dehydration or fluid excess). Read all the related news.

Continuing its leading research work in conjunction with the University of Eastern Finland, DuPont Nutrition & Health (DuPont) released the findings of a research study showing that natural Betafin® betaine, a DuPont product, enhanced the metabolism in fat (adipose) tissue and reduced inflammation in mice being fed a high fat "Western diet." The favorable metabolic changes brought about by betaine feeding included increasing fat tissue carnitine which may prevent lipid accumulation in fat tissues, and therefore offers potential benefits in reducing obesity.

"Our previous in vitro adipose tissue experiments indicated that betaine reduces inflammation caused by hypoxia and in the current study we were able to see the same response in the in vivo obesity model," said Senior Scientist Kaisa Airaksinen, DuPont Nutrition & Health.

"This study exemplifies DuPont's commitment to long-term science behind our products," said Kirsti Tiihonen, Ph.D., DuPont Nutrition & Health. "Betaine is an example of the research we've been performing in Kantvik, Finland, for more than 20 years using our own preclinical modelling expertise and the collaboration with external partners in the areas of omics techniques as well as clinical trials."

Among the study's other achievements was the comparison of adipose tissue gene expression and nontargeted metabolite profiles. "While this study was conducted on animals, the metabolic effects are presumably in line with what could be seen in humans," said Kati Hanhineva, Ph.D., University of Eastern Finland. "These kinds of study approaches can give more understanding on the metabolic mode of action of products, and how they can impact the health of human body."

Sanctuary Brewing Company will be serving brews, locally-based plant meat makers No Evil Foods & Garlik Vegan Kitchen will be serving eats, and there'll be a Pop-Up Pup Photo Booth on site by Indulge Images.

While in past years it was hosted at Sanctuary Brewing Company's location in downtown Hendersonville, the epic annual event of adorableness has become so big that the staff is moving the event to the gymnasium at nearby Kanuga Conference & Retreat Center to accommodate all the fans!

With more than 150k Instagram followers and hundreds of thousands of views of his original viral rap vi deo, Vegan Thanksgiving, Grey is a legitimate phenomenon.

With Paid Online Video Now Reaching 3 of 5 US Consumers, New Altman Vilandrie & Company Survey Reveals Live News and Sports Still Huge Draw for Pay TV Subscribers

Even with 3 of every 5 American TV viewers subscribing to an online video service, a new Altman Vilandrie & Company survey shows that live news and sports are the top reasons why consumers subscribe to pay TV. The survey also asked viewers to identify "must have" shows from TV and video services, revealing sharp differences in the volume and content of favorite programming across age demographics, along with a shared love by all ages for Netflix's Stranger Things and CBS's Big Bang Theory.

Altman Vilandrie & Company's annual consumer video survey, conducted for its ninth year, also reveals the most important factor by far for how younger and older viewers make program viewing decisions is "word of mouth," roundly beating out new methods like social media ads.

"Despite the industry upheaval of the past several years, two traditional pillars of television – news and sports – remain the main reasons consumers choose pay TV," said Altman Vilandrie & Company Principal Matt Rivet, who co-directed the survey. "Young viewers – and increasingly older ones – are showing a voracious appetite for TV content, which provides opportunities for both new and traditional providers."

Online video subscribers still strong
The survey reveals the continued growth in popularity of online video services like Netflix, Amazon and Hulu. Overall, 61 percent of consumers subscribe to at least one video service, with middle-aged viewers subscribing at the highest rates: 68 percent of 35-44-year-olds subscribe to at least one video service, and 45 percent to two or more.

Be alert to read related news.:

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/common-workplace-items-may-be-hazardous.html

However, 52 percent of consumers subscribe to at least one online video service and a pay TV provider, evidence that consumers have ample appetites for multiple sources of content.

Viewers still "must have" live news, sports
Respondents were asked to choose their "must have" programs from a list of 235 popular scripted and unscripted programs from network, cable and streaming services. Across all respondents, five of the top six programs were live news and sports: 1) choice of local news, 2) choice of national news, 3) National Football League, 4) The Big Bang Theory, 5) NCAA Football, 6) Major League Baseball. Sports interest slipped for the youngest viewers (18-24), with live NFL and National Basketball Association programing ranking in the top 20 priority programs.

In addition, the highest percentage of all viewers (63 percent) selected live news as a reason to subscribe to Pat TV. Similarly, 52 percent of all Pay TV customers indicated that live sports was a top reason for subscribing.

"Must-have" choices reveal age preferences, 'Strange' bedfellows
The "must have" programs show clear viewing differences among the various age groups. Younger viewers have many more "must-have" programs than older viewers, which indicates an opportunity for both Pay TV and streaming providers to feed millennials' large appetite for video content. Sixty-nine programs were deemed "must have" by 20 percent or more of 18-24-year-old viewers, compared to 22 programs for 25-34-year-olds and nine for those 55-plus.

In addition to placing a high value on live news and sports, viewers 55 and older gravitate toward programs on network TV, particularly crime and medical dramas. Younger viewers pull their top choices for content from a broader variety of sources and formats, including cartoons, cooking shows, and science fiction/fantasy. There were some areas of overlap, specifically Stranger Things, which is the top "must have" show for viewers under 35 and ranked high for older viewers, and Big Bang Theory, which ranked in top 10 for all age demographics.

"The differences in content preferences across viewer demographic groups makes it hard for video service providers to make one-size-fits-all packages to meet consumers' needs," said Altman Vilandrie & Company Principal Patrick Redmond, who co-directed the survey. "However, even with many consumers now subscribing to both Pay TV and a video streaming service, providers can develop strategies to retain and expand relationships with these double dippers."

Finding modern content, the old-fashioned way
Consumers turn to friends and acquaintances more than any other source when making viewing decisions. Sixty percent of all consumers – including 64 percent of younger viewers (18-34) and 57 percent of 55+ viewers – say that "word of mouth" was their preferred way to choose TV programs. For younger viewers, that result outpaced "video service recommendations" (53%) and "social media ads" (42%).

Another more established advertising method, "on air commercials on the show's network" placed second in the rankings with 54 percent of overall viewers.

Altman Vilandrie & Company fielded the online survey in August 2018 to more than 5,000 respondents provided by Research Now SSI. In 2018, the annual consumer video survey analyzed the impact of collections of specific programs on pay TV adoption and viewing. Click here.
