Researchers identified a significant link between heme iron—iron found in red meat and other animal products —and risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D), as well as the metabolic pathways underlying the link.

To characterize the thermodynamics of heme binding to REV-ERB proteins, we used isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) after removing heme from the purified LBDs. In contrast to Drosophila ...

Medically reviewed by Patricia Mikula, PharmD If you take iron supplements to address an iron deficiency or prevent anemia, ...

Heme is a coordination complex consisting of a porphyrin ring surrounding a single ferrous (Fe 2+) or ferric (Fe 3+) ion, able to bond with diatomic oxygen and transport it around the body. Four heme ...

Iron is a mineral essential for proper growth and development. Your body uses it to make hemoglobin and certain hormones. Two types of iron are found in food: heme (animal-derived) and non-heme (plant ...

Umami boosters be damned — there’s no replacing the metallic richness of a medium-rare steak. Which is reason for concern, because our meat-eating days are numbered. Cows take up too much land, eat ...

THE typical case of spontaneously occurring pyridoxine-responsive anemia in human beings has been characterized by hypochromic, microcytic red cells, normoblastic proliferation in the bone marrow, ...

In a recent study published in Nature Metabolism, researchers combine traditional clinical indicators with cutting-edge metabolomics data to investigate the processes underlying dietary heme iron ...

The plant-based patties were first introduced to the world in 2016 when celebrity chef David Chang placed it on the menu at his New York City restaurant Momofuku Nishi. The faux-meat has since graced ...
