This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 685 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dramatic changes in the attitudes toward human nutrition have taken place dur ing the past decade. Food-related and medical professionals as well as consumers are now, more than ever before, aware of and concerned about diet, nutrition, and the beneficial and deleterious effects of food processing upon nutrients. The old saying "We are what we eat" is still relevant. Nutritious food will contribute greatly to consumers' good health and ultimately reduce medical bills. Food processing is essential to maintaining our food reserves from one harvest to another, thus letting us serve our daily meals regularly. If food processing is defined as including all treatments of foodstuffs from harvest to consumption, then more than 95% of our food may be considered as processed. In most cases, food processing and storage cause some reduction in the nutritional value of foods. Advances in food science and food technology have resulted in an increase in nu trient retention after processing. In addition, today's consumer better understands how to avoid excessive nutrient losses during food preparation. The information presented in this completely revised reference and textbook will help the reader to understand better the relationship between food processing and nutrient retention. The authors' scholarly contributions are greatly appreciated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evaluation of Novel Protein Products is a collection of several scientific essays that resulted from a symposium held in Stockholm. The order in which the essays are arranged follows a session type format. Session 1 focuses on the world food problem and the treatment of the nutrition problems in the field of economics, and then ends with the strategy in the examination of unique protein foods. Session 2 of the book is about the unique sources of protein. Possible sources include oilseed, fish, animal husbandry, cereal varieties, and leaf proteins. Sessions 3 to 6 analyze the nutritional value and quality of the said protein sources. Session 7 contains the closing statement about the challenge of protein-calorie malnutrition. Doctors, economists, as well as academic and research students whose focus of study is on food shortage and impact of protein in the human food consumption will find this book invaluable.

Download or read book Nutritional Improvement of Food and Feed Proteins written by Mendel Friedman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 879 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nutritional quality of a protein depends on the proportion of its amino acids-especially the essential amino acids-their physio logical availability, and the specific requirements of the consumer. Availability varies and depends on protein source, interaction with other dietary components, and the consumer's age and physiological state. In many foods, especially those from plants, low levels of various essential amino acids limits their nutritive value. This is particularly important for cereals (which may be inadequate in the essential amino acids isoleucine, lysine, threonine, and tryto phan) and legumes (which are often poor sources of methionine). Moreover, these commodities are principle sources of protein for much of the earth's rapidly growing population. At the current annual growth rate of about 2 percent, the world population of about 4 billion will increase to 6.5 billion by the year 2000 and to 17 billion by the year 2050. Five hundred milliQn people are presently estimated to suffer protein malnutrition, with about fifteen thousand daily deaths. The ratio of malnourished to adequately nourished will almost surely increase. For these reasons, and especially in view of the limited availability of high quality (largely animal) protein to feed present and future populations, improvement of food and feed quality is especially important.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: In view of the world problems of malnutrition and inadequate food supplies, the nutritional quality of protein sources is becoming increasingly important. This issue is addressed in a 2-volume text examining protein quality in food products and feeds. Part I describes biological and chemical assay techniques for determining protein quality. These include quantitative biochemical assays for the amino acids, especially essential lysine, methionine and tryptophan, as well as tests for evaluating protein bioavailability, digestibility and protein efficiency ratio in animals and man. Biochemical parameters representing indices of protein nutritional value and methods for the complete evaluation of dietary proteins are discussed. Part 2 analyzes the protein quality of specific foods and feeds and reviews the effect of processing, plant breeding, enzymes, antinutrients and other factors of protein quality. Technologies for the improvement of protein sources are also presented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last decade, there has been substantial research dedicated towards prospecting physiochemical, nutritional and health properties of novel protein sources. In addition to being driven by predictions of increased population and lack of a parallel increase in traditional protein sources, main drivers for the rise in novel proteins/ novel foods research activities is linked to significant changes in young consumers’ attitudes toward red meat consumption and their interest in new alternative protein products. Alternative Proteins: Safety and Food Security Considerations presents up-to-date information on alternative proteins from non-meat sources and examines their nutritional and functional roles as food sources and ingredients. Emphasis is placed on the safety of these novel proteins and an evaluation of their potential contribution to food security. Motivations for novel proteins and restrictions for their use are also discussed. Key Features: Explains potential improvements to alternative proteins through the employment of novel processing techniques. Contains the first review on keratin as an alternative protein source. Explores first comprehensive evaluation of the religious aspects of novel proteins. Describes methods for the detection and evaluation of health hazards. Discusses guidelines, regulatory issues and recommendations for food safety Additionally, this book covers fundamental and recent developments in the production of alternative proteins, and examines safety and consumer acceptability wherever information is available. The sources and processing options for alternative proteins and their impact on final product characteristics are also covered. A collective contribution from international researchers who are active in their field of research and have made significant contributions to the the food sciences, this book is beneficial to any researcher interested in the the food science and safety of alternative proteins.
