The collapse of the food matrix: how ultra-processed foods impact satiety and metabolism by altering physical structure beyond nutrient composition [PDF]
The global consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) is strongly associated with the prevalence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). This link has traditionally been attributed to their poor nutritional profiles.

Calcium Absorption from Food Products: Food Matrix Effects. [PDF]
This article reviews physicochemical aspects of calcium absorption from foods. Notable differences are observed between different food products in relation to calcium absorption, which range from <10% to >50% of calcium in the foods. These differences can be related to the interactions of calcium with other food components in the food matrix ...

The Food Matrix Protects Dark Chocolate Flavan-3-Ols and Onion Flavonols from Degradation During In Vitro Gastrointestinal Digestion [PDF]
The bioaccessibility of flavonoids (namely, their release from the food matrix and their stability under gastrointestinal conditions) is pivotal in establishing their bioavailability and biological effects. Bioaccessibility is affected by several factors,

Protection of Anthocyanins by Food Matrix During Simulated Digestion: Comparative Analysis of Whole-Açaí Powder and Extracts [PDF]
Polyphenols, particularly anthocyanins, are associated with metabolic health benefits; however, whether anthocyanin extracts provide greater bioaccessibility than whole foods remain unclear.

Implementation of food matrix effects into chemical food contaminant risk assessment. [PDF]
Food risk assessment plays an important role in protecting public health worldwide. Stakeholders involved in food risk assessment, such as national authorities, agencies, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), industry and consumers, need to properly understand the terminology of food risk assessment effectively.

Effect of Food Matrix and Administration Timing on the Survival of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG During In Vitro Gastrointestinal Digestion [PDF]
Probiotics’ potential to enhance gut health is often limited by their poor survival during gastrointestinal (GI) transit, a challenge influenced by the composition and timing of co-ingested foods.

A Food Matrix Triggers a Similar Allergic Immune Response in BALB/c Mice Sensitized with Native, Denatured, and Digested Ovalbumin [PDF]
The search for an animal model to evaluate the allergenic potential of processed food products is still ongoing. Both the sensitization to ovalbumin (OVA) in different structural states and the allergic response triggered after intragastric or food ...

Vulnerability matrix of the food system: Operationalizing vulnerability and addressing food security [PDF]
Abstract Food security is the major desired outcome of any food system, but its realization may be prevented by vulnerabilities in a food system. By shifting the focus of their vulnerability analysis from the discrete components of the food system to the food system as a whole, the authors of this article were able to develop a qualitative food ...

Probabilistic Modelling of the Food Matrix Effects on Curcuminoid’s In Vitro Oral Bioaccessibility [PDF]
The bioaccessibility of bioactive compounds plays a major role in the nutritional value of foods, but there is a lack of systematic studies assessing the effect of the food matrix on bioaccessibility.
