Total antioxidant content of alternatives to refined sugar.
BACKGROUND Oxidative damage is implicated in the etiology of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and other degenerative disorders. Recent nutritional research has focused on the antioxidant potential of foods, while current dietary recommendations are to increase the intake of antioxidant-rich foods rather than supplement specific nutrients. Many alternatives to refined sugar are available, includi...
متن کاملSugar cane and sugar beet molasses, antioxidant-rich alternatives to refined sugar.
Molasses, the main byproduct of sugar production, is a well-known source of antioxidants. In this study sugar cane molasses (SCM) and sugar beet molasses (SBM) were investigated for their phenolic profile and in vitro antioxidant capacity and for their protective effect in human HepG2 cells submitted to oxidative stress. According to its higher phenolic concentration and antioxidant capacity in...
متن کاملThe effect of date versus sugar on sensory, physicochemical, and antioxidant properties of ice cream
Background: Despite the popularity of ice cream, its high content of sugar and fat is worrisome. Substituting sugar with natural and useful resources is one possible solution. Dates (Phoenix dactylifera) are rich in carbohydrates and are a good source of energy; they also have a large amount of phenolic compounds and anthocyanin. Aims: The aim of this ...
متن کاملEffects of sugarcane, palm sugar, coconut sugar and sorbitol on starch digestibility and physicochemical properties of wheat based foods
Wheat flours mixed with four types of sweeteners; sugarcane, palm sugar, coconut sugar and sorbitol were evaluated for their in vitro starch digestibility, estimated glycemic index (GI) and physicochemical properties. It was found that sorbitol which is a sugar alcohol gave the best starch digestibility results providing the lowest estimated GI values. Palm and coconut sugars provided better st...
متن کاملPhysicochemical and antioxidant properties of Algerian honey.
The aim of the present study was to characterize the physical, biochemical and antioxidant properties of Algerian honey samples (n = 4). Physical parameters, such as pH, moisture content, electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), color intensity, total sugar and sucrose content were measured. Several biochemical and antioxidant tests were performed to determine the antioxidant...
