Book Fatty Acids in Foods and their Health Implications Third Edition

Download or read book Fatty Acids in Foods and their Health Implications Third Edition written by Ching Kuang Chow and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2007-11-19 with total page 1296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the publication of the bestselling second edition, mounting research into fatty acids reveals new and more defined links between the consumption of dietary fats and their biological health effects. Whether consuming omega-3 to prevent heart disease or avoiding trans fats to preserve heart health, it is more and more clear that not only the quantity but the type of fatty acid plays an important role in the etiology of the most common degenerative diseases. Keeping abreast of the mechanisms by which fatty acids exert their biological effects is crucial to unraveling the pathogenesis of a number of debilitating chronic disorders and can contribute to the development of effective preventive measures. Thoroughly revised to reflect the most resent research findings, Fatty Acids in Foods and their Health Implications, Third Edition retains the highly detailed, authoritative quality of the previous editions to present the current knowledge of fatty acids in food and food products and reveal diverse health implications. This edition includes eight entirely new chapters covering fatty acids in fermented foods, the effects of heating and frying on oils, the significance of dietary ?-linolenate in biological systems and inflammation, biological effects of conjugated linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid, and the role of fatty acids in food intake and energy homeostasis, as well as cognition, behavior, brain development, and mood disease. Several chapters underwent complete rewrites in light of new research on fatty acids in meat, meat products, and milk fat; fatty acid metabolism; eicosanoids; fatty acids and aging; and fatty acids and visual dysfunction. The most complete resource available on fatty acids and their biological effects, Fatty Acids in Foods and their Health Implications, Third Edition provides state-of-the-science information from all corners of nutritional and biomedical research.

Book The Effects of Dietary Fat Source and Feeding Duration on Pig Growth Performance and Fat Quality

Download or read book The Effects of Dietary Fat Source and Feeding Duration on Pig Growth Performance and Fat Quality written by Ethan Wade Stephenson and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 3 experiments, 4,720 pigs were used to determine the effects of: 1) dietary fat and feeding duration on growth performance and fat quality in finishing pigs; or 2) a novel protease or 3) increasing levels of Zn amino acid complex (ZnAA) or ZnO on finishing pig performance. Experiment 1 tested the effects of feeding tallow, soybean oil, or a blend of the two for various feeding durations (d 0 to 42, 42 to 84, or 0 to 84). Overall, pigs fed added fat for the entire 84 d had improved G:F compared to those fed a control diet. Additionally, pigs fed additional fat for the entire study had improved ADG and G:F as well as increased d 84 BW compared to pigs fed additional fat for 42 d. Increasing the feeding duration of soybean oil lowered monounsaturated fatty acids and increased polyunsaturated fatty acid concentrations while these values remained relatively unchanged by the addition of tallow. There were feeding period by fat source interactions for fatty acid composition and iodine value for belly and backfat, but not jowl fat, indicating a longer turnover rate for jowl fat compared to belly or backfat. In Exp. 2, adding a protease to a nutrient deficient diet increased ADFI and tended to increase ADG compared to pigs fed a negative control diet. There were no differences observed in ADG, ADFI, or G:F between pigs fed a positive control diet, formulated to 90% of the pigs SID lysine requirement, and those fed a negative control diet plus the protease, which would suggest the release values attributed to the enzyme were accurate. In Exp. 3, supplementing additional Zn from either ZnAA or ZnO at 25, 50, or 75 ppm in finishing diets for commercial finishing pigs was evaluated. Overall, no differences were observed in ADFI, but a Zn source by level interaction was observed for ADG and G:F, as pigs fed increasing ZnO were observed to have similar performance, while pigs fed added levels of 25 and 50 ppm Zn from ZnAA had decreased performance compared to those fed the highest level of ZnAA.

Book The Effects of Dietary Manipulation of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Intake on Tissue Fatty Acid Composition and Immunity to Infection with Nematode Parasites in the Calf

Download or read book The Effects of Dietary Manipulation of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Intake on Tissue Fatty Acid Composition and Immunity to Infection with Nematode Parasites in the Calf written by Kennedy Muturi Nelson and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three experiments were carried out in calves to investigate the effect of changes in dietary PUFA supply on; the fatty acid composition of primary lymphoid organs and tissues, ex-vivo lymphocyte proliferation response, eosinophil and mucosal mast cell numbers in the gut and on immune response to nematode parasites Ostertagia ostertagi and Cooperia oncophora infection. In experiment 1, two groups of Jersey bull calves were fed on 25 g/day of either an n-3 enriched fish oil (FO) (n-3 group) or a binary mixture of palm/rapeseed oil (normal group) for a period of 21 days (n=10) or 42 days (n=12). In experiment 2, calves (n=40) were allocated at birth to 7 treatment groups, which received for 21 days oils supplements similar to experiment 1 in either whole milk or milk replacer. While in experiment 3, calves (n=24) were allocated to two dietary treatment groups (n=12) and fed oil supplements similar to experiment 1. Within each dietary treatment group, calves (n=8) were infected for 8 weeks (three times/week) with 2000 stage 3 larvae of Ostertagia ostertagi and Cooperia oncophora. The remaining calves (n=4) were uninfected controls. In experiments 1 and 3 calves were fed on 500 g/day of a standard milk replacer hay and calf weaner pellets (1.5 X maintenance of metabolizable protein (MP) and metabolizable energy (ME) requirements). 30-mg a-tocopherol acetate/kg PUFA was fed all the calves. In exp. 1 lymphocytes, plasma and tissue samples were collected for fatty acid analysis. In exp. 2 tissue samples were collected for fatty acid analysis, lymphocyte stimulation responses and determination of mucosal mast cells and eosinophils numbers. While in exp. 3 faeces samples were collected twice per week for faecal egg counts (FEC) and blood for plasma collection was sampled every week. At slaughter, tissue sample for fatty acid analysis were collected, while abomasal, duodenum and terminal ileum samples were collected for MMC and eosinophil counts. The gut contents from abomasum and intestine were washed and collected for worm counts. Tissue fatty acids reflected dietary fatty acid intake indicating that in young calf tissue fatty acids can be manipulated by dietary means. Tissues in the fish oil supplemented calves had a significantly (p
