Summary Dietary fibre intake can help to improve the health of population. Cookies are one most consumed bakery products. The aim this study was investigate influence different fibres on cookie quality. Soluble (nutriose, inulin and polydextrose) decreased dough consistency favoured spread during baking produced wider thinner cookies. In contrast, insoluble (elongated rounded) showed an opposite trend increasing giving rise cookies with higher moisture, lower factor hardness. Long gave...
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to identify and quantify hydrolyzed free amino acids including taurine in different muscles the Blonde Galician breed. main essential present each were lysine leucine, with aspartic acid glutamic being most important non‐essential fraction. chemical score index calculated as correlation parameters biological value proteins, best values obtained for longisimus dorsi semitendinosus . An analysis also carried out Taurine found be all muscles, exception cardiac...
To examine the interrelationships of body composition variables derived from simple anthropometry, bioelectrical impedance (BIA) and dualenergy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA).A total 230 healthy preschool children (118 males 112 females) age 4-6 years, attending a day care center, were examined to determine mass index (BMI) waist circumference (WC). Percentage fat content (%BF) was predicted by BIA (Maltron BF- 900) DXA (Lunar DPX-L, pediatric software).BMI WC did not show significant...
The effects of replacing dietary saturated fat by different monounsaturated fatty acid (ω-9MUFA) sources on serum lipids, body and bone in growing hypercholesterolemic rats were studied. Rats received one the six diets: AIN-93G (control, C); extra virgin olive oil (OO) + C; high-oleic sunflower (HOSO) C or atherogenic diet (AT) for 8 weeks; remaining two groups AT 3 weeks then, was replaced an mixture soybean added with OO HOSO 5 weeks. consuming MUFA-rich diets showed highest fat, hepatic...
Phytosterols (P) and fish-oil (F) efficacy on high-oleic-sunflower oil (HOSO) diets were assessed in hypercholesterolemic growing rats. Controls (C) received a standard diet for 8 weeks; experimental rats fed an atherogenic (AT) 3 weeks, thereafter divided into four groups 5 weeks monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) containing either: extra virgin olive (OO), HOSO or supplemented with P F. The did not alter body weight growth. HOSO-P HOSO-F showed reduced total cholesterol (T-chol),...
Modeer T. et al.(2011) claim that there is association between decreased salivary flow rate and caries in obese adolescents. The aim of this study was to determine the among nutritional status, risk preschoolers. comprised 60 children aged 3 6 years attending kindergartens areas immediately adjacent Buenos Aires City, Argentina. Body weight height were determined. mass index calculated population classified anthropometrically according WHO 2007 (WHO Anthro. Program). Caries Saliva collected...
AbstractNutritional status as well energy and protein intake are critical regulators of IGF1 IGFBP-3 contribute to the modulation bone remodeling formation. The purpose this study was investigate on an experimental model with nutritional dwarfing (ND), whether alterations body growth velocity, metabolism composition could affect serum concentrations IGF-1 (tibiae mandible) histology histomorphometry. Twentyone male weanling Wistar rats (body weight = 38.20 ± 0.94 g) were randomized three...
AbstractObjective: The purpose of our study was to assess the influence different levels calcium (Ca) in a diet containing 30% protein on rehabilitated body size from protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) and establish optimal Ca/protein ratio for attaining normal composition.Methods: Weanling female Wistar rats were fed with protein-free up weight deficit 20±1%. Then they arranged groups (T0) diets 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.9 or 1.2% Ca 28 days (T28). Food deionized water given ad libitum. Body...
Introducción: Debido a que el sobrepeso y la obesidad frecuentemente se acompañan de complicaciones metabólicas, objetivo del presente estudio es estimar prevalencia dislipidemia, sus factores riesgo (FR) grado concordancia entre los valores corte triglicéridos (TG) HDL-C, según Cook col. Academia Americana Cardiología en niños adolescentes con dichas patologías.Material Métodos: Se estudiaron 139 pacientes u obesidad, 8-14 años, concurrieron Sección Nutrición Pediátrica Hospital Clínicas,...
Reduced bone mass in growing rats fed MUFAn9‐rich diets was observed. But stiffness has not been defined yet. To study the mechanical competence hypercholesterolemic (HC) MUFA diets, weanling male Wistar (n=48) were assigned to one of 7 diet groups for 8 weeks (T8). Three control a commercial (C), C+olive oil (COO) or C+high‐oleic sunflower (CHOSO) and 4 groups, an atherogenic 3 weeks; then either OO, HOSO, HOSO+sterols HOSO+fish diet. At T8, serum lipid‐lipoprotein profile femur properties...
Early childhood caries, an ecological disease, and obesity are related to dietary habits. We previously found association among nutritional status (NS), prevalence of caries microbiology composition dental biofilm, that leads a negative relationship between risk. Candida spp is frequent commensal yeast the oral microbiota; however, in pediatric population associated with presence caries. The aim present study was determine NS, , preschool children. Fifty one children aged 3 6 years were...
Dental caries and obesity are diseases related to dietary habits. Early childhood is a multifactorial disease whereby saliva plays an important role. The aim of the present study was determine relationship between body fat, salivary flow rate, in preschoolers. Sixty three children aged 60.3 ± 12.3 months, attending day care center, were examined. They classified by Body Mass Index Z‐scores (WHO, 2007) adequate (A: 50% children), overweight or obese (Ow/Ob: 45%) with Anthro AnthroPlus...
