Download or read book Food of the Future Meat and Dairy Alternatives written by Antti Knaapila and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-03-05 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have seen an increase in discussion around the impact of our dietary choices not only on personal health, but on global issues such as food security and climate change. Much focus has been placed on eating a plant-based diet and eschewing animal-sourced foods, with vegetarian and vegan options becoming far more abundant across grocery stores and in restaurants. But as we look to the future, what other sources and types of food could help foster health for both people and the planet?

Download or read book Sweeteners and Sugar Alternatives in Food Technology written by Kay O'Donnell and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-07-13 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive and accessible source of information on all types of sweeteners and functional ingredients, enabling manufacturers to produce low sugar versions of all types of foods that not only taste and perform as well as sugar-based products, but also offer consumer benefits such as calorie reduction, dental health benefits, digestive health benefits and improvements in long term disease risk through strategies such as dietary glycaemic control. Now in a revised and updated new edition which contains seven new chapters, part I of this volume addresses relevant digestive and dental health issues as well as nutritional considerations. Part II covers non-nutritive, high-potency sweeteners and, in addition to established sweeteners, includes information to meet the growing interest in naturally occurring sweeteners. Part III deals with the bulk sweeteners which have now been used in foods for over 20 years and are well established both in food products and in the minds of consumers. In addition to the "traditional" polyol bulk sweeteners, newer products such as isomaltulose are discussed. These are seen to offer many of the advantages of polyols (for example regarding dental heath and low glycaemic response) without the laxative side effects if consumed in large quantity. Part IV provides information on the sweeteners which do not fit into the above groups but which nevertheless may offer interesting sweetening opportunities to the product developer. Finally, Part V examines bulking agents and multifunctional ingredients which can be beneficially used in combination with all types of sweeteners and sugars.

Part I of this comprehensive book addresses these healthand nutritional considerations. Part II covers non-nutritive,high-intensity sweeteners, providing insights into blendingopportunities for qualitative and quantitative sweetnessimprovement as well as exhaustive application opportunities. PartIII deals with reduced calorie bulk sweeteners, which offer bulkwith fewer calories than sugar, and includes both the commerciallysuccessful polyols as well as tagatose, an emerging functional bulksweetener. Part IV looks at the less well-established sweetenersthat do not conform in all respects to what may be considered to bestandard sweetening properties.
