Beyond Gut Modulation: A Critical Review of the Therapeutic Potential, Safety, and Clinical Prospects of Natural Polysaccharides for IBD

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
In this review, we critically summarized the application of natural polysaccharides (NPs) for the treatment of IBD. This approach combines, in a unique way (right), the basic structure–activity relationships of NPs from different origins (left) with their multipronged mode of action, which involves modulation of the gut microbiota and other ...

Seasonal Variations in the Starch Properties of Sweet Potato Cultivars

Horticulturae, 2023
Starch is widely used in the food and non-food industries, and this is related to its physicochemical characteristics. In the coming years, climate changes will become unpredictable, and these conditions may affect the process of starch biosynthesis and ...

Advantages of low‐glycaemic‐index carbohydrates in regulating glycaemic response of energy bar: A review

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Energy bars are widely consumed functional foods among athletes and physically active consumers who require convenient sources of sustained energy. Their carbohydrate composition, particularly the type and ratio of digestible sugars such as glucose, fructose and sucrose, strongly influences glycaemic index (GI), postprandial blood glucose ...

Physicochemical Properties of Sweet Potato Starch Reclaimed from Sweet Potato Processing Sludge [PDF]

Korean Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2013
The physicochemical properties of sweet potato (SP) starches reclaimed from an SP-processing sludge without freezing (RC/NF) and with freezing (RC/FR) were investigated. Lab-isolated (LI) SP starch, as a control, were prepared from raw SP. RC/NF and RC/FR SP starches were recovered from SP-processing sludges by the repeated sieving and washing ...

Past, present and future of local crop evolution

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

Mechanism of Center-towards-Surface Enzymatic Hydrolysis Pattern for Sweet Potato Starch Induced by Annealing Treatment and a New Method for Porous Starch Preparation

Shipin gongye ke-ji
Sweet potato and potato starch (which served as a control) were employed as raw materials to explore the characteristics and mechanism of a center-towards-surface enzymatic hydrolysis pattern for sweet potato starch processed at sub-gelatinization ...

Development of low-fat fried fish using a two-prong strategy

CyTA - Journal of Food, 2019
In this study, a two-prong strategy was devised to reduce fat-uptake in deep-fat fried fish by developing a low cost, sustainable and product-friendly edible coating using fish processing by-products and replacement of corn starch in batter with sweet ...

1173. Ipomoea pandurata (L.) G. Mey

Curtis's Botanical Magazine, EarlyView.
Summary Ipomoea pandurata is a Morning Glory from North America which develops a large storage root. There is much uncertainty about its discovery before its formal description in the middle of the 18th century. Originally described as a Convolvulus, almost a hundred years passed before its recognition as a species of Ipomoea.

Phenotypic Differentiation Between Highland and Coastal Quinoa Under Cold Stress Conditions

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is a genetically diverse Andean crop valued for its nutrition and adaptability to varied agro‐climatic conditions with potential for cultivation in European and Mediterranean, particularly on marginal lands. Low temperatures during early sowing can impair germination, while delayed sowing increases the risk ...

Prebiotic Bimuno® GOS reduces illness symptoms and supports gut barrier function and immunity after intermittent exercise in the heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise in hot climates increases the risk of gastrointestinal (GI) disruption and respiratory illness. We investigated the effects of a 42 day prebiotic intervention on markers of intestinal epithelial injury, GI discomfort and immunity following football specific exercise in the heat and daily upper respiratory illness.
