This study investigated feasibility utilising Persimmon sauce (PS) as a fat replacer to develop cake evaluated its impact on physicochemical, functional, sensory, structural profile developed variants (control (100g fat) M1, M2, M3 M4 25g, 50g, 75g 100 g PS I 100g butter basis,...
Background: Young women (< 40 years) constitutes about 10%–25% of total breast cancer cases in south-Asian and an increase incidence rates have been noted the recent past. It is higher compared with their western counterparts, where 5%–10% are reported. Younger usually present more aggressive tumor poorer prognosis, suggesting that young represents a distinct entity.

Kulfi is a traditional Indian frozen dessert with nutritional significance but, lacks therapeutic properties. can be used as vehicle for probiotics and prebiotics, the added advantage of being appreciated by people all age groups. Current study involves production kulfi incorporating probiotic culture Lactobacillus acidophilus La-5 (107 – 108 CFU/g) tomato juice (prebiotic) (25% 37.5%) to enhance its functional value create synbiotic system. The effect concentration was evaluated...
