Mineral metabolism on rice diets.
Over half the population of the world eats a diet in which rice predominates and such a diet usually has a low mineral content. This is certainly true for the diets consumed by most of the people of Ceylon (Nicholls, 1936; Nicholls & Nimalasuriya, 1939; Bibile, Cullumbine, Watson & Wickramanayake, 1949; Cullumbine, ~gqga), and it is difficult to understand how these people can grow and maintain...

متن کاملNew hypotheses for the health-protective mechanisms of whole-grain cereals: what is beyond fibre?
Epidemiological studies have clearly shown that whole-grain cereals can protect against obesity, diabetes, CVD and cancers. The specific effects of food structure (increased satiety, reduced transit time and glycaemic response), fibre (improved faecal bulking and satiety, viscosity and SCFA production, and/or reduced glycaemic response) and Mg (better glycaemic homeostasis through increased ins...
متن کاملRecurrent Selection to Alter Grain Phytic Acid Concentration and Iron Bioavailability
Iron is an important micronutrient and Fe deficiency is a global health concern. phytic acid inhibits Fe absorption and cannot be digested by monogastric livestock or humans. High phytate concentration in staple crops may be one of the contributing factors for the high incidence of anemia in developing countries because of its inhibiting effect on Fe absorption. In seeds, it serves as the main ...
متن کاملReduction of Phytic Acid During Breadmaking of Whole-Meal Breads'
Cereal Chem. 69(3):266-270 Reduction of phytate was studied in model dough systems using whole(up to 550 C) phytic acid concentrations were less than 8 and 4% of original grain coarse meals or flours and during breadmaking of coarse meal concentrations for wheat and rye, respectively. Further increase of the breads from wheat and rye. It was found that pH was the most important temperature (abo...
