Nutraceuticals and Vitamins: A Comprehensive Guide for Naturopaths and Allied Health Professionals | Chapter 3 | Disease and Health Research: New Insights Vol. 2

 

Life has become much faster due to rapid economic development and poor nutrition and food quality. As people choose junk food and processed foods, their diet becomes unbalanced and they suffer from lifestyle-related diseases that cause various health problems. The FDA defines medical food as a special type of compounded or processed food prepared for a patient, either partially or completely as the sole source of nutrition as part of the oral diet. These products are given through an enteral feeding tube to patients who are unable to absorb food orally. Their ingredients are tailored according to their nutritional benefits.  Patients are being encouraged to make positive lifestyle changes as an increasing number of diseases, such as metabolic syndrome, are preventable through lifestyle changes. One of them is to change your eating habits. Dietary supplements are aimed at preventing such diseases.

Fast Determination of Biogenic Amines by the Application of Multiparametric Sensor for Food Quality | Chapter 11 | Current Approaches in Science and Technology Research Vol. 6

 The primary focus of this food production research is food quality and safety. European legislation identifies specific markers that can be used to check the healthiness of food for this purpose. Biogenic amines are a type of common compound that can be beneficial or harmful to human health. They are referred to as a quality index because they undergo qualitative and quantitative changes during food spoilage, processing, and storage. The multiparametric sensor proved to be a reliable method of determining specific quality indicators. As a result, the goal of this study was to see how a multiparametric liquid sensor could be used to assess the presence of BAs in fish, where Cadaverine, Histamine, and Tyramine have the greatest influence on storage period, and in chocolate, where - -Phenylethylamine (2.7–7.4 mg/Kg) and Tyramine (2.1–12.0 mg/Kg) were the most abundant amines.
