HIGHLIGHTS
- It has established that incorporation of soybean into maize- cassava flours enhanced its nutrients.
- The study demonstrated that maize-cassava based flour supplemented with soybean supports growth and reduced blood glucose level
- The consumption of the flour blends elevated serum protein, albumin, globulin, cholesterol, high density lipoprotein, sodium, chloride and magnesium to a normal level
- The intake maize, cassava, soybeans blends, however, reduced triglycerides, low density lipoprotein, calcium, potassium, phosphorus and liver enzymes.

- In Sangsar region, Aroushe is prepared by roasting fresh sheep cheese with addition of turmeric and flour.
- Walnut powder and nanoencapsulated clove essential oil (NCEO) had improved some texture factors for cheese samples on account of protein and fat.
- NCEO caused a decline trend in pH feature due to phenolic acids and antioxidant components
- Cheese with 3 % walnut and 0.3 % NCEO was the most interesting and had necessary potential for industrial production and available to public.

Highlights
- Vitamin D supplementation does not have a statistically significant effect on leptin concentrations.
- Subgroup analyses did not reveal any significant differences in leptin response.
- Sensitivity analyses confirmed the stability of our primary findings.
- Vitamin D supplementation alone may not be sufficient to modulate leptin levels in diverse populations.
