Phenolic‐Associated Dietary Fiber Ingredients From Agro‐Industrial Residues: Processing‐Dependent Identity and Food‐Grade Translation

open access: yesChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
Agro‐industrial residues contain dietary fiber and phenolics, but coexistence alone does not establish a phenolic‐bound ingredient. Processing‐dependent identity is verified through fraction‐specific analysis and common‐basis mass balance. Food‐grade translation requires final‐product performance, sensory acceptance, safety, and claim‐matched ...

Lycopene and cardiovascular disease [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2000
Considerable evidence suggests that lycopene, a carotenoid without provitamin A activity found in high concentrations in a small set of plant foods, has significant antioxidant potential in vitro and may play a role in preventing prostate cancer and cardiovascular disease in humans. Tomato products, including ketchup, tomato juice, and pizza sauce, are
