This book was released on 2007 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, there has been considerable interest in the potential health-promoting properties of conjugated linoleic acid (cis-9, trans-11 CLA), a fatty acid produced naturally in ruminant animals, and omega-3 fatty acids. The primary objective of this trail was to determine the effects of varying levels of linseed oil (LSO) on grazing dairy cows' diet on milk cis-9, trans-11 CLA and omega-3 fatty acids content. Twelve Holsteins cows in mid lactation (150 ± 19 Days in milk) were placed on alfalfa based pasture and assigned into four treatment diets using a 4X4 Latin square design with 3 wk period. Treatment diets were: (1) control grain supplement (CONT); (2) control grain supplement containing 170g LSO (LSO1); (3) control grain supplement containing 340g LSO (LSO2) and (4) control grain supplement containing 510g LSO (LSO3). Grain supplements were offered at 7 kg/d twice daily. Additional 100 g/d of algae, divided evenly between the two feeding times, were added to every treatment diet. Milk samples were collected during the last three days of each period and analyzed for chemical and fatty acids composition. Treatment diets had no effect on milk production (18.93, 18.50, 19.60 and 19.10 kg/d for treatment diets 1 to 4, respectively), milk fat percentages (3.23, 3.44, 3.35 and 3.27) and milk protein percentages (3.03, 3.19, 3.12 and 3.08). Milk cis-9, trans-11 CLA (1.12, 1.18, 1.39, and 1.65 g/100g fatty acids for treatment diets 1 to 4, respectively), vaccenic acid (VA, trans-11 C18:1; 3.39, 3.62, 4.25, and 4.89 g/100g fatty acids), and total omega-3 fatty acids (0.86, 1.09, 1.26, and 1.25 g/100g fatty acids) concentrations were linearly increased (P

This book was released on 2007 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A considerable amount of evidence has accumulated in supporting the view that conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) and omega-3 fatty acids (FA) have beneficial health properties and that the consumption levels of these FA is insufficient in most western diets. In view of their benefits, there has been a considerable interest in enhancing milk and dairy food products with these beneficial FA. The objective of the first trial was to determine the effect of supplementing grazing dairy cows' diet with fish oil (FO) and linseed oil (LSO) on milk c9, t11 CLA and omega-3 FA. Sixteen Holstein cows (170 ± 19 DIM) were divided into 2 groups (n=8 per treatment) and fed a basal diet (8 kg/d; DM basis) consisting of corn, soybean meal, molasses, vitamin/mineral premix plus 800 g saturated animal fat (CONT) or a basal diet plus 200 g FO and 600 g LSO (FOLSO). All cows grazed together on Sudan grass pasture for ad libitum and were fed the treatment diets for 3 wks. Cows were milked twice a day and milk samples were collected during the last three days of the trial. Milk production (24.89 and 22.45 kg/d), milk protein percentages (2.76 and 2.82) and milk protein yield (0.68 and 0.64 kg/d) for the CONT and FOLSO diets, respectively, were not affected ( P > 0.05) by treatment diets. Milk fat percentages (3.90 and 2.86) and milk fat yields (0.97 and 0.64 kg/d) were lower ( P

Download or read book Food Biofortification Technologies written by Agnieszka Saeid and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biofortification, which can be defined as the process of increasing the content/density of essential nutrients and/or its bioavailability of food with valuable compounds, is a promising means of increasing nutrient intakes. Traditional fortification practices in which exogenous nutrients are added to food can increase the content of nutrients but the use of biofortified foods with nutrients also may deliver the compounds in a more available form, as well as boost the overall relative effectiveness of these foods in raising nutrients status. Food Biofortification Technologies presents the state of the art in the field of novel methods of fortification and agricultural treatments as a way to improve the quality of obtained food products or compounds enriched with valuable nutrients. The book deals with fortification methods and agricultural treatments, which can improve the quality of food products or other agricultural compounds, providing them with a higher density of valuable nutrients. The utilization of novel products, such as feed additives and fertilizers, can avert nutrients depletion in food products. The book describes new and conventional methods of introducing valuable compounds into food components and presents the application of biosorption, bioaccumulation, and utilization of fertilizers in obtaining designer food. Attention is paid to the use of biomass as the carrier of nutrients such as microelements into the food components. The chapters are dedicated to specific food products and their nutrient components. The first chapter discusses the agronomic biofortification with micronutrients where the fertilization strategies are pointed out as a key to plant/cereals fortification. Other chapters present the fortification of animal foodstuffs such as meat, fish, milk, and eggs as well as the fortification of plant foodstuffs such as vegetables, fruits, and cereals. The book also explores advances in food fortification with vitamins and co-vitamins, essential minerals, essential fatty and amino acids, phytonutrients, and enzymes.

This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional foods, diets and food systems play an important role in people’s nutritional status. As the best products of traditional food systems, geographical indication (GI) foods have a great potential to contribute to healthy diets and curb non-communicable diseases. This paper presents five case studies around the world on the nutritional potential of registered GI foods and explores the link between the production processes and the nutritional composition of the final products. The nutritional characteristics of these foods can be largely attributed to their unique ingredients and production procedures, which are linked to their geographical origins.The paper also discusses the development of GI specifications to maintain and improve nutritional values, the role of GI foods in healthy diets, and the determination of food composition. Finally, suggestions on how to leverage GI foods for healthy diets are provided.
