Angel Yeast Marks Sustainable Gastronomy Day with Outstanding Results in Weight Management Year
According to the 'World Obesity Atlas 2025' released by the World Obesity Federation, the number of obese adults worldwide is projected to increase from 524 million in 2010 to 1.13 billion by 2030—an increase of over 115 percent. This stark projection accentuates on the growing trend of obesity and its potential threats to public health, and the urgency for taking proactive measures. Effective weight management is crucial for preventing diseases such as hypertension and diabetes and improving quality of life.
In response to the global challenge, Angel Yeast launched the 'Weight Management Year' initiative in May 2024. Since then, the program has engaged 15,000 people with nearly 1,000 active participants, 70 percent of whom lost weight successfully, averaging at 1 kilogram per person.
'The foundation of effective weight management is maintaining a balanced diet and physical activity, Angel Yeast has innovatively developed a range of products, including yeast protein, low-sodium yeast extract seasonings and low-sugar soft bread, leveraging advanced technologies to reduce salt, oil and sugar to bring a more science-based and efficient approach of weight management,' said Zhang Yan, chief engineer of Angel Yeast.
Yeast is a type of probiotic, and the yeast protein has been shown to significantly alleviate the histological and functional degradation of intestinal health caused by aging. Additionally, it enhances the microbial population of intestinal tract and promoting overall gut health. The AngeoPro® yeast protein is non-animal derived, environmentally friendly, safe and nutritionally rich, and has emerged as a strong option of protein, contributing to improving the global protein supply and advancing sustainable development.
Currently, the use of yeast protein in the global food industry is experiencing a steady annual increase. Yeast protein has become a fundamental component of daily diets, driving a shift towards healthier eating habits.
'Yeast protein boasts a complete set of amino acids – including all nine essential amino acids needed by the human body, and its composition closely aligns with the ideal amino acid profile recommended by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). With a digestion and absorption rate of up to 90 percent and a biological value of 87, its amino acid score adjusted for digestibility (PDCAAS) is equal to 1, surpassing soy protein and matches whey protein, making it a highly valuable source of quality nutrition,' noted Zhang.
Yeast protein also contains a high content of lysine, making it particularly suitable for groups whose main source of food is grains, as nutritional yeast protein powder is also rich in B vitamins. AngeoPro® yeast protein can increase the abundance of Bacteroides the taiotaomicron in the gut, which may enhance the body's metabolic efficiency and positively impact weight management.
The use of yeast protein in global food industry is increasing steadily and has become a fundamental component of daily diets to drive a shift towards healthier eating routines. As research continues to advance, the functional applications of AngeoPro® yeast protein are being further explored in areas such as muscle reconstruction, sports injuries recovery, digestive health, immune support, and lipid metabolism. Moving forward, Angel Yeast is committed to continuously promoting the global application of yeast protein, contributing to healthier and more sustainable diets and lifestyles.

Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and Children's Hospital Colorado Researchers Conduct First Prospective Study of Pediatric EoE Patients and Disease Progression
Study found that stiffness of the esophagus could serve as an important biomarker for disease progression and indicate which patients may benefit the most from current therapies PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Researchers from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and Children's Hospital Colorado have found that better control of chronic eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE)-associated inflammation during childhood leads to less stiffening of the esophagus, resulting in fewer disease complications. Using Endoluminal functional imaging (FLIP), the study team suggests this could be a key marker for assessing disease severity and progression. The findings were published online today by the journal Gastroenterology. EoE is a chronic allergic inflammatory disease of the esophagus, the muscular tube that carries food from the throat to the stomach. Children can experience nausea, regurgitation, vomiting, abdominal pain and a burning feeling like acid reflux. They may also have difficulty swallowing and gag frequently. Often, they can experience dysphagia, which is when it feels like something is stuck in their throat. If EoE goes untreated, the esophagus may narrow because of scarring, a phenomenon known as stricture. Chronic EoE-associated inflammation can lead to progressive tissue remodeling and fibrostenosis, or the narrowing of the esophagus. While clinicians recognize the severity of the disease, long-term studies looking at disease progression over time, and the impact of controlling the disease from a young age, is relatively unknown. 'This is the first study to follow kids overtime (with these endoscopic assessments) and evaluate the patients who are at the highest risk of complications,' said co-senior study author Amanda Muir, MD, a pediatric gastroenterologist in the Division of Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition at CHOP. 'With the recent FDA approval of two medications for EoE, having this data could help identify the patients who could benefit from these therapies the most and observe improvement at a histologic level over time.' Researchers at CHOP and Children's Hospital Colorado launched a longitudinal study to evaluate long-term changes in esophageal distensibility, or the ability of the esophagus to expand, in pediatric patients between the ages of 3 and 18 years old. Symptomatic, endoscopic and histologic data were collected at each visit during the study. A total of 112 patients with EoE were included with a median follow-up time of 11 months, some followed for over 4 years. 'Following children living with EoE over time has given us a clearer picture of how inflammation affects the esophagus and how treating it can improve the esophagus and outcomes for patients,' said Calies Menard-Katcher, MD, co-senior study author and Associate Director of Clinical Research for the Gastrointestinal Eosinophilic Diseases Program at Children's Hospital Colorado. 'It's exciting to see these results confirm what we've suspected in caring for patients — and they may even help us spot those at risk for more severe disease.' The study found that patients with tissue samples showing a response to treatment demonstrated the most improvement in distensibility over time. After adjusting for different factors, the study found that patients with lower esophageal distensibility had increased odds of patient-reported dysphagia, or difficulty swallowing. Patients with fibrostenosis were generally diagnosed at an older age, had the disease for a longer period and showed reduced esophageal distensibility at baseline predicted the need for future dilation in patients with strictures. The authors suggest that further studies that examine the disease from a molecular level could help them understand which patients may be at highest risk of severe disease and could benefit from a variety of treatment strategies. This study was supported by the National Institutes of Health grants R01DK124266-01, K23DK109263 and R21TR003039.

In May, the Percentage of Patients with a Telehealth Claim Increased Nationally and in Every Region
Diabetes Entered Top Five Telehealth Diagnostic Categories in Midwest and West in May for First Time in 2025 NEW YORK, Aug. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In May 2025, the percentage of patients with a telehealth claim increased nationally and in all four US census regions, according to FAIR Health's Monthly Telehealth Regional Tracker. Nationally, that percentage increased from 14.2 percent of patients in April to 14.3 percent in May, a 0.8 percent rise. In May, the West had the largest share of patients with a telehealth claim, at 18.7 percent, and the Midwest had the smallest share, at 10.8 percent. The data represent the commercially insured population, excluding Medicare Fee-for-Service, Medicare Advantage and Medicaid. From April to May, changes in utilization as measured by telehealth claim lines1 varied. Nationally, telehealth claim lines fell from 5.01 percent of medical claim lines in April to 4.96 percent in May, a decrease of 1.0 percent. In the South, the decrease was 1.7 percent. In all other regions, there was an increase, from 0.4 percent in the West to 3.1 percent in the Northeast. Diagnostic Categories In May 2025, diabetes mellitus entered the top five telehealth diagnostic categories in the Midwest and West for the first time in 2025. In the Midwest, this diagnostic category entered in fifth position, displacing overweight and obesity; in the West, it entered in fourth position, displacing acute respiratory diseases and infections, which fell to the fifth rank, supplanting sleep disorders. In the South, diabetes fell off the list from fifth position, replaced by encounter for examination. In May, mental health conditions remained in first position nationally and in every region, though the percentage of patients with a telehealth claim for this diagnostic category decreased nationally and in all regions. Nationally, it fell from 63.0 percent in April to 62.1 percent in May. Urban versus Rural In May 2025, as in April, telehealth utilization was higher in urban than rural areas nationally and in every region.2 Nationally, 14.5 percent of patients in urban areas had a telehealth claim, compared to 7.5 percent in rural areas. The largest difference occurred in the West, where the percentage of urban patients using telehealth (18.8 percent) was 2.4 times the percentage of rural patients (7.9 percent). The smallest difference was found in the Northeast, where the percentage of patients in urban areas using telehealth (16.7 percent) was 1.5 times the percentage of patients in rural areas using telehealth (11.4 percent). Age Distribution In May 2025, as in April, the age groups 19-30 and 31-40 accounted for the largest percentages of patients with a telehealth claim nationally and in every region. Nationally in May, the age group 31-40 (22.8 percent) displaced the age group 19-30 (22.4 percent) as the age group with the largest percentage of patients having a telehealth claim. The same shift happened in the Northeast and South, though in the Midwest and West, the age group 19-30 still had the largest percentage of patients with a telehealth claim. Nationally and in every region, the age groups 0-9 and 65 and older accounted for the smallest shares (less than 10 percent each) of patients with a telehealth claim. Procedure Categories In May 2025, psychotherapy services and procedures, and established patient office or other outpatient services (including those for mental health conditions), were, as in April, the top two procedure categories nationally and in every region. The order of the two varied: In May, established patient office or other outpatient services ranked first nationally (at 47.7 percent of patients with a telehealth claim) and in the South and West, while psychotherapy services and procedures ranked first in the Midwest and Northeast. In April, established patient office or other outpatient services ranked second nationally (47.48 percent), while psychotherapy services and procedures (47.49 percent) ranked first. About the Monthly Telehealth Regional Tracker Launched in May 2020 as a free service, the Monthly Telehealth Regional Tracker uses FAIR Health data to track how telehealth is evolving from month to month. An interactive map of the four US census regions allows the user to view an infographic on telehealth in a specific month in the nation as a whole or in individual regions.
