Download or read book Quality Attributes of Muscle Foods written by Youling L. Xiong and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1999-06-30 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major challenge for the meat and seafood industries continues to be that of pro ducing high-quality, wholesome products. Consumers' demand for reduced-fat, low-fat, and fat-free meats (red meat, poultry, and seafood) with acceptable flavor, texture, and other sensory characteristics or those similar to typical, traditional high-fat meats has im parted further urgency to rising to this challenge. Consequently, meat scientists strive to develop different antemortem strategies as well as to improve on existing postmortem processing technologies in order to meet this consumer demand. While the microbiological quality of meat, meat products, and seafoods is important from a food safety standpoint, it is the physicochemical attributes and the interactions of the various chemical components of muscle and ingredients which directly influence the product palatability and consumer acceptability. Virtually every step in production and processing, including animal dietary regime, antemortem stress conditions, postmortem handling, product formulation, temperature of processing, packaging, and storage, affects the quality attributes of muscle foods.

Download or read book Muscle Foods written by Max Editorial and published by Editora Bibliomundi. This book was released on 2023-02-13 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LIGHTNING PROMOTION ”””””””””””””””””””””””””””Some experts suggest that muscle-building comes down to 20-percent exercise and 80-percent nutrition.That means, working out more than you should will not build more muscle. In fact, you only need to work out each muscle group about 3 to 4 times per week, to see sizable gains. (Any less or any more could diminish your gains.)The rest of the time, i.e. when you're not in the gym or garage torturing your body, your muscles need to be resting and recuperating.And, how well your muscles rest and recuperate comes down to the quality and quantity of your rest/sleep...and your nutrition, i.e. the quality of the fuel and building blocks you're using to feed your muscles.In other words, your muscles don't grow while you're working out in the gym. They get big and strong when you're done working out...and in between your workouts, i.e. during your rest period.However, you do still need to work out. Because, your muscles need to undergo some stress and strain in order to want to grow and get strong, so they can be ready to handle your next workout.

Download or read book Phenolic Antioxidants and Health Benefits written by U.D. Chavan and published by Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2018-02-01 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is mainly based on the latest research results and applications of phenolic and polyphenolic compounds. Phenolic compounds, ubiquitous in plants, are an essential part of the human diet and are of considerable interest due to their antioxidant properties and potential beneficial health effects. These compounds range structurally from a simple phenolic molecule to complex high-molecular-weight polymers. There is increasing evidence that consumption of a variety of phenolic compounds present in foods may lower the risk of health disorders because of their antioxidant activity. When added to foods, antioxidants control rancidity development, retard the formation of toxic oxidation products, maintain nutritional quality and extend the shelf-life of products. Due to safety concerns and limitation on the use of synthetic antioxidants, natural antioxidants obtained from edible materials, edible by-products and residual sources have been of increasing interest. This contribution summarizes both the synthetic and natural phenolic antioxidants, emphasizing their mode of action, health effects, degradation products and toxicology. In addition, sources of phenolic antioxidants are discussed in detail.
