Impact of ultrasonicated Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum AF1 on the safety and bioactive properties of stirred yoghurt during storage
In this study, the effects of ultrasonicated Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum AF1 (100 W, 30 kHz, 3 min) on the safety and bioactive properties of stirred yoghurt during storage (4 °C for 21 days) were investigated. The results showed that sonicated cultures were more effective in reducing pathogens than untreated ones. The highest antioxidant activity (DPPH and ABTS), α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibition capacity were found in yoghurt containing sonicated probiotic + sonicated yoghurt starter cultures (P + Y + ). The highest amount of peptides (...

Plasma Metabolites Related to the Consumption of Different Types of Dairy Products and Their Association with New ‐Onset Type 2 Diabetes: Analyses in the Fenland and EPIC‐Norfolk Studies, United Kingdom
ConclusionMetabolite scores identified habitual consumers of milk, butter, and total dairy products, and were associated with lower T2D risk. These findings hold promise for identifying objective indicators of the physiological response to dairy consumption. (Source: Molecular Nutrition and Food Research)

Exploring consumer beliefs about novel fortified foods: A focus group study with UK-based older and younger adult consumers
Appetite. 2023 Dec 1:107139. doi: 10.1016/j.appet.2023.107139. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTConsuming 'nutritionally-enhanced' food products (including those that are fortified or enriched to deliver nutritional and functional properties) may help to improve overall diet quality and combat risks associated with malnutrition. However, fortification can negatively impact consumer acceptance, particularly where expected sensory properties of 'delivery' foods are affected by target ingredients. Here, we explored factors influencing consumer acceptability for six novel food products that had been fortified, including both savo...

Nutrition analysis - with particular focus on carbohydrate content in kefirs and natural yoghurts in the Polish consumer market
Pediatr Endocrinol Diabetes Metab. 2023;29(3):166-174. doi: 10.5114/pedm.2023.132026.ABSTRACTThe aim of the study was to assess the nutrition of selected fermented dairy products available in Polish supermarkets and how many of them meet the criterion set by the European Parliament and Council Act (UE) no. 1924/2006 form 20 December 2006 on nutrition and health claims made on foods regarding low sugar content in a solid product. In the study 100 fermented products, widely available in Polish supermarkets, were selected, and their nutrition was analysed based on the information placed on the producer's label, and the carboh...
