🌱 Curious about plant-based foods? 🌱 Expertises in food science and human nutrition are needed within the dialogue about the “pros and the cons. Check out the review article from "New #Plant-#Based Food Products Between Technology and #Physiology," which dives into the science and challenges behind plant-based #alternatives. It explores how plant proteins are processed and summarizes current knowledge about their effects on human nutrition including digestibility and nutrient absorption. You'll learn about: #composition of raw materials (flour) used for the production of protein ingredients #changes in the composition of the protein ingredients after processing #requirements and critical factors in the development of plant-based alternatives of meat and of dairy substitutes #metabolism and nutritional status affected by a substantial replacement of animal-based products in a diet #recommendations for improving plant-based meat and dairy alternatives Thank you for putting that together!

Nutri-Score A, so what? Invented in 2017 by a team of independent scientific experts and adopted by several European countries, Nutri-Score aims to simplify nutrition information for consumers. The 2024 update underscores even more the commitment to providing accurate and relevant information to facilitate healthier food choices. At oChocolat, extensive research and development efforts have led to the creation of the first Nutri-Score A-rated chocolate nut spread worldwide! We experimented with 52 recipes before settling on the most delectable spread we've ever tasted. Taste was non-negotiable throughout the process ;) Introducing our pride and joy: oChoco. #NutriScore #NutritionalScience #Innovation #oChocolat #HealthyChoices

At a more granular level, food systems transformation efforts should take nutrition into account at every stage from production through consumption. Africa faces widespread and severe micronutrient deficiencies that have serious impacts on health and well-being. By examining the adequacy of production, market supply and consumption of a range of nutrients in two case study countries, the ATOR demonstrates that nutrient adequacy gaps differ between and within countries, and by food system component.

As infant formula prices surge in the UK, accusations of 'greedflation' prompt regulatory action by the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA). Rima Mittra, Food & Nutrition expert, believes that the absence of market competition leads to costly innovation, particularly in baby milk formula, due to limited suppliers for new ingredients, but anticipates potential price shifts with increased production scale. In her latest interview with Just Food, Rima provides exclusive insights into the intricate factors driving this trend and its impact on families.

A new generation of plant-based meat alternatives - formulated to mimic the taste and nutritional composition of red meat - have attracted considerable consumer interest, research attention, and media coverage. This has raised questions on whether plant-based meat alternatives represent proper nutritional replacements to animal meat. This webinar discusses the use of food metabolomics to profile nutrients in foods well beyond the limited nutrients routinely appearing on Nutrition Facts panels: https://buff.ly/3Wam6TI #ChemetrixAcademy #MeatAlternatives #Metabolomics #FoodTesting #FoodSafety
