Final (soy, probiotic, recipe adjusting) Flashcards
nutrients found in soy
high protein (35-38% calories)
less saturated fats than animal products
high in fiber
concerns with soy
phytates bind iron, zinc in plands decreasing absorption
benefits with soy
phytochemicals appear to work with vitamins and minerals to prevent/halt disease
what are probitotics
live microorganisims when administered in adequate amoutns confer a health benefit on the host
what is required for a product to be considered probiotic
alive when administered
save fopr intended use
undergone controled evaluation
defined as a microbe
strong evidence for health clames of probiotics
lactose intolerance
diarrhea
constipation
what are prebiotics
selectivitly fermented ingredients that change composition of gastrointestinal microflora
conver benefit
prebiotic requirements
resist gastric acidity
hydrolysis by enzyme and absorption
fermented by microflora
stimulates activity/growth of healthful microflora
health benefits of prebiotics
all same benefits of fiber
more evidence for prebiotics than probiotics
two main prebiotics
fructo-oligosaccarides/inulin
galacto-oligosaccarides
how might the benefits of dietary fiber be mediated
gut microbiota
problems with modern diet for dietary fiber
low levels of fiber and fermented foods
increase in formula feeding
increase in antibiotic use
three basic ways to adjust a recipe
eliminate
reduce
substitute
SOFAS MUFA PUFA
solid fats and added sugars
monounsaturated fatty acids
polyunsaturated fatty acids
