Since American football is inherently a collision sport, exposure to repeated head impacts leads to increased concerns among players, especially regarding brain health. The risk of neurodegenerative diseases may rise at the later phase of life in case of the long-term continuation of brain damage induced by repetitive head impacts thereby leading to the chronicity of oxidative stress and neuroinflammation along with the blood-brain barrier disruption. Therefore, early preventive strategies are necessary to improve brain health. Nutrition is considered one of these strategies. The Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) diet model was designed to improve brain health. The MIND diet includes foods rich in bioactive compounds, fiber, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant characteristics. Therefore, this diet model may protect the brain against the negative effects of brain damage. The potential effects of MIND diet components, including bioactive compounds, fiber, PUFAs, and MUFAs on brain health for American football players are discussed in this review.

Fermented dairy products are the good source of different species of live lactic acid bacteria (LAB), which are beneficial microbes well characterized for their health-promoting potential. Traditionally, dietary intake of fermented dairy foods has been related to different health-promoting benefits including antimicrobial activity and modulation of the immune system, among others. In recent years, emerging evidence suggests a contribution of dairy LAB in the prophylaxis and therapy of non-communicable diseases. Live bacterial cells or their metabolites can directly impact physiological responses and/or act as signalling molecules mediating more complex communications. This review provides up-to-date knowledge on the interactions between LAB isolated from dairy products (dairy LAB) and human health by discussing the concept of the food–gut-health axis. In particular, some bioactivities and probiotic potentials of dairy LAB have been provided on their involvement in the gut–brain axis and non-communicable diseases mainly focusing on their potential in the treatment of obesity, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, inflammatory bowel diseases, and cancer.

The aging of the population has great social and economic effects because it is characterized by a gradual loss in physiological integrity, resulting in functional decline, thereby loss of ability to move independently. Telomeres, the hallmarks of biological aging, play a protective role in both cell death and aging. Critically short telomeres give rise to a metabolically active cell that is unable to repair damage or divide, thereby leading to aging. Lifestyle factors such as physical activity (PA) and nutrition could be associated with telomere length (TL). Indeed, regular PA and healthy nutrition as integral parts of our lifestyle can slow down telomere shortening, thereby delaying aging. In this context, the present comprehensive review summarizes the data from recent literature on the association of PA and nutrition with TL.
