Previous studies suggest that the prevalence of wheat/gluten sensitivity and adherence to a gluten-free diet (GFD) are high in Latin population despite poor diagnosis celiac disease. However, these rates still remain unknown most American countries.A cross-sectional survey study was conducted Santa Fe, Argentina.The estimated self-reported were (95% Confidence Interval [CI]): gluten (SR-GS) 7.61% (6.2-9.2), SR-GS currently following GFD 1.82% (1.2-2.7), disease 0.58% (0.3-1.2), wheat allergy...
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) peptides have shown in vitro potential to inhibit the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE-I). However, molecular interactions between chickpea (CP) and ACE-I as well their ADMET (absorption/distribution/metabolism/excretion/toxicity) characteristics remain unknown. Thus, our aim was study silico of CP with characteristics. Legumin provicilin sequences were submitted analysis search for inhibitory peptides. Simulated enzymatic hydrolysis performed using...
Gluten-related disorders are not considered of relevance at public health level in Central America. The prevalence gluten-related disorders, and adherence to a gluten-free diet, remain unknown the American region. We conducted cross-sectional survey population from San Salvador, El estimate rates self-reported diet. 1326 individuals were surveyed. Self-reported (95% Confidence Interval): gluten sensitivity 3.1% (2.3–4.2); physician-diagnosed celiac disease 0.15% (0.04–0.5); wheat...
Celiac disease (CD) is mediated by IgA antibodies to wheat gliadins and tissue transglutaminase (tTG). As tTG homologous microbial (mTG) used improve foodstuff quality, it could elicit the immune response of celiac patients. This study evaluated reactivity patients prolamins gluten-free (maize rice flours) breads mTG-treated or not. Prolamins extracted from were analyzed ELISA immunodetected on membranes with individual pooled sera nine recently diagnosed. Sera pool titers higher against...
The prevalence of symptomatic adverse reactions to gluten and adherence gluten-free diet in Latin American countries is unknown. These measurements are strongly linked gluten-related disorders. This work aimed estimate the oral adult Mexican population. To reach this aim, a self-administered questionnaire was designed tested for clarity/comprehension reproducibility. Then, questionnaire-based cross-sectional study conducted estimated rates were (95% CI): 11.9% (9.9–13.5) 7.8 (6.4–9.4)...
Due to an increasing incidence of celiac disease (CD) and other gluten-related disorders, different gluten-free breads have been developed using starches additives as a substitute for gluten. Thus, patients miss not only the taste aroma wheat bread but also risk their sensitive intestines. Therefore, modifying gluten avoid immune response in CD its application baking is progress. The aim study was enzymatically modify on flour, during bread-making avoiding use additives, reduce...
Background . Celiac disease seems to be rare in Colombians, but there are currently no data about the prevalence rates of symptomatic adverse reactions gluten or adherence gluten-free diet (GFD) this population. Aim evaluate self-reported gluten, GFD, and gluten-related disorders at population level Colombia. Methods A self-administered questionnaire-based cross-sectional study was conducted a from Northwest Results The estimated were (95% CI) 7.9% (6.5–9.6) 5.3% (4.1–6.7) for recurrent...
Alcalase is the enzyme of choice to release antihypertensive peptides from amaranth proteins, but hydrolysis conditions have not been optimized yet. Furthermore, in vivo assays are needed confirm such a hypotensive effect. Our aim was optimize protein with alcalase and test effect hydrolysates. A response surface analysis carried out reaction. The variable Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE-I) inhibition. degree determined (free alpha-amino groups measurement). hydrolysate bioavailability...
The effect of consuming baked foods enriched with antihypertensive compounds on blood pressure remains uncertain. In this study, an alcalase-generated amaranth hydrolyzate was used to prepare cookies and their technological characteristics (expansion factor, color, texture) properties evaluated. bioavailability the were assessed in Balb/c mice effects hypertensive rats. Enriched developed a more intense yellow-brown color than non-enriched ones (p < 0.05). Compared group that received water...
Alcalase-treated amaranth proteins generate angiotensin-1-converting enzyme (ACE-1) inhibitory peptides, which could be useful for functional foods development. Our aim was to evaluate the technological, sensory, and antihypertensive properties of pasta enriched with an hydrolysate.Pasta 11% (A; control), 15% (B), 20% (C) protein content were formulated. Pastas B C supplemented alcalase-treated concentrate. Cooking time, cooking lost, color, texture assessed. An untrained panel (n = 30)...
People suffering from a food intolerance (FI) tend to initiate restrictive diets such as gluten-free diet (GFD), alleviate their symptoms. To learn about how people live with these problems in daily life (independent of medical diagnoses), 1203 participants answered previously validated questionnaire and were divided into: G1 (those self-reporting symptoms after gluten consumption) G2 informing no discomfort consumption). Self-reported clinical characteristics, diagnoses followed registered....
Background: The prevalence of gluten-related disorders (GRD) and adherence to a gluten-free diet (GFD) remains unknown in Brazilian population there is no published information on the scientific literature about proportion Brazilians that were diagnosed with disorder. Thus, aim this work was estimate GRDs GFD by self-report adult population. Materials Methods: A questionnaire-based cross-sectional study conducted two cities. Results: response rate 93.2% (1630/1749). self-reported rates (95%...
The prevalence of celiac disease (CD) has increased worldwide, which could be related to some dietary proteins in infant regimens and/or new food processes, affecting CD-predisposed infants and older children or adults differentially. IgA reactivity human bovine caseins, as well yogurt caseins prolamins from wheat maize breads, microbial transglutaminase (mTG)-treated not, was evaluated three patient groups: G1, <2 years old; G2, ∼3 G3 >8 old. Human were not recognized by IgA, whereas G2...
The characteristics of food allergen labelling are relevant for avoiding accidental exposure to the allergens interest but no Latin American country has evaluated these characteristics. Our aim was evaluate and precautionary (PAL) in six countries. All data were collected directly from supermarkets surveyed. A total 10,254 packaged products analyzed, which 63.3% (n = 6494) 33.2% 3405) featured and/or PAL, respectively. Most complied with local regulations (≥87.4% both locally produced...
Background: The cost and availability of gluten-free products (GFPs) are aspects associated with dietary compliance. In turn, following a diet (GFD) could impact on lifestyle. Objectives: To investigate the GFPs in Northwestern Mexico, to associate these factors noncompliance, evaluate GFD Materials methods: Gluten-containing foods were compared their versions. data collected by store visitation (16 supermarkets 10 health food stores). Individuals prescribed physician surveyed (n=36)....
Gluten-related disorders (GRDs) are increasing around the world, but their magnitude and relevance remain unknown in most Latin American countries. Thus, an online survey was conducted to estimate prevalence of GRDs as well adherence a gluten-free diet (GFD) Paraguayan adult population. There were 1058 individuals surveyed using validated questionnaire (response rate 93.9%). The self-reported rates follows (95% CI): gluten sensitivity (GS), 10.30% (8.53–12.29); non-celiac GS (NCGS), 5.19%...
