Download or read book New Protein Foods written by Aaron Altschul and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Protein Foods, Volume 1: Technology Part A deals with protein methodologies in transforming protein sources into better or more useful sources. This volume is organized into 10 chapters that summarize possible sources of protein foods, such as legumes, meat, poultry products, and meat analogs. The introductory chapter presents an overview of the definition of food problem of the societies, the concept of affluent malnutrition, and the role of protein foods. This book then discusses the extent of controversy surrounding the issue of the amino acid fortification of cereals. It emphasizes rice, as it is a major staple in regions where fortification with amino acids should be of great benefit in eliminating malnutrition and improving the health and performance of the populations. This is followed by a discussion on protein fortification of various forms of breads and other products. Chapters 5-8 are devoted into the role of food proteins in human nutrition and the available technologies for their treatment. Emerging protein foods unique to Japan, including products of enzyme applications, are also discussed and their prospects are assessed. The concluding chapter presents underlying philosophies and problems as food and drug laws and regulations move to further definition of food products. It also presents the concern about food nutritive values in changing times. This book is an ideal source of information for food technologists and researchers who are interested with the evolving field of food proteins.
Download or read book Novel Plant Protein Processing written by Zakir Showkat Khan and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-12-29 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proteins serve as an important nutritional as well as structural component of foods. Not only do they provide an array of amino acids necessary for maintaining human health but also act as thickening, stabilizing, emulsifying, foaming, gelling, and binding agents. The ability of a protein to possess and demonstrate such unique functional properties depends largely on its inherent structure, configuration, and how they interact with other food constituents, like, polysaccharides, lipids, and polyphenolic compounds. Proteins from animal sources have superior functionality, higher digestibility, and lower anti-nutrient components than plant proteins. However, consumer preferences are evolving worldwide for ethically and sustainably sourced, clean, cruelty-free, vegan or vegetarian plant-based food products. Unlike proteins from animal sources, plant proteins are more versatile, religiously, and culturally acceptable among vegetarian and vegan consumers and associated with lower food processing waste, water, and soil requirement. Thus, the processing and utilization of plant proteins have gained worldwide attention and as such numerous scientific studies are focusing on enhancing the utilization of plant proteins in food and pharmaceutical products through various processing and modification techniques to improve their techno-functional properties, bioactivity, bioavailability, and digestibility. Novel Plant Protein Processing: Developing the Foods of the Future presents a roadmap for plant protein science, and technology which will focus on plant protein ingredient development, plant protein modification, and the creation of plant protein-based novel foods. Key Features: · Includes complete information about novel plant protein processing for use as future foods · Presents a roadmap to upscale the meat analog technological processes · Discusses marketing limitations of plant based proteins and future opportunities This book highlights the important scientific, technological advancements that are being deployed in the future foods using plant proteins, concerns, opportunities, and challenges, and, as an alternative to maintaining a healthy and sustainable modern food supply. It covers the most recent research related to the plant protein-based future foods which include their extraction, isolation, modification, characterization, development, and final applications. It also covers the formulation and challenges: emphasis on the modification for a specific use, legal aspects, business perspective, and future challenges. This book is useful for researchers, readers, scientists, and industrial people to find information easily.
Download or read book Edible Insects written by Heimo Mikkola and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-01-29 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insect protein production through ‘mini-livestock farming’ has enormous potential to reduce the level of malnutrition in critical areas across the world. It has been estimated that insect eating is practised regularly by over two billion people, mostly in China and in most tropical countries in Africa, South America, and Asia. However, eating insects has been taboo in many western nations. Reasons for this are discussed in this book with examples from Finland and the UK. The enormous boom of insect farming in Finland started in September 2017 when the business type was legalized. However, a large part of the population found the insect food too expensive and exotic. UK research outlines a multitude of promising strategies to overcome ‘western’ resistance to eating insects. This book also includes a chapter on the potential of insect farming to increase global food security. It shows that Africa is a hotspot of edible insect biodiversity and there more than 500 species consumed daily. We have several examples of viable insect farming businesses that can fight poverty and malnutrition in developing countries and provide profit and wealth to rural farmers. The chapters of the book cover countries such as Cameroon, Ecuador, Finland, Ghana, India, Mexico, the UK, and the US.

Download or read book Sustainable Protein Production and Consumption Pigs or Peas written by Harry Aiking and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-10-12 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sustainable Protein Production and Consumption: Pigs or Peas? is a book that presents and explores the PROFETAS programme for development of a more sustainable food system by studying the feasibility of substituting meat with plant based alternatives. The emphasis is on improving the food system by reducing the use of energy, land, and freshwater, at the same time limiting the impacts on health and animal welfare associated with intensive livestock production. It is clear that such a new perspective calls not only for advanced environmental and technological research, but also for in-depth societal research, as the acceptance of new food systems is critically contingent on perceptions and attitudes of modern consumers. In this unique multidisciplinary setting, PROFETAS has opened up pathways for a major transition in protein food production and consumption, not by just analyzing the food chain, but rather by exploring the entire agricultural system, including biomass for energy production and the use of increasingly scarce freshwater resources. The study presented here is intended to benefit every stakeholder in the food chain from policymakers to consumers, and it offers guiding principles for a transition towards an ecologically and socially sustainable food system from a multi-level perspective.
