Mare's milk as a prospective functional product
Journal Title: Functional Foods in Health and Disease - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 11
Abstract
Background: Food has a significant effect on the health of the body, the relationship between diet and health actualizes the importance of expanding the research of functional products. Kazakhstan has a huge potential for functional products, such as saumal, or mare's milk. Since ancient times saumal has been used as an antidote, since it has the ability to excrete toxins. Today it is used for pulmonary tuberculosis, anemia, rickets, diabetes mellitus, obesity, nerve diseases, inflammatory diseases of the stomach and intestines. Saumal is called a longevity drink.
Preparation of function-enhanced vegetable oils
Background: Highly purified commercial vegetable oils, such as rape seed/canola oil, corn oil, safflower oil and soy bean oil have virtually no antioxidant activity against lipid peroxyl radical scavenging activi...
Glucosinolates and isothiocyanates from broccoli seed extract suppress protein glycation and carbonylation
Background: Glucosinolates from brassica plants are hydrolyzed by internal or salivary myrosinase to produce isothiocyanates. Glucoraphanin, a major glucosinolate in broccoli, is hydrolyzed to sulforaphane (SFN), which e...
