Cereals and Pulses by Liangli L. Yu,Rong Tsao,Fereidoon Shahidi Pdf

Cereal and pulse crops are staple foods that provide essential nutrients to many populations of the world. Traditionally, whole grains were consumed but most current foods are derived from refined fractions of cereal and pulse crops. Consumption of processed or refined products may reduce the health benefits of food. In wheat-based processed foods, for example, the removed 40% of the grain (mainly the bran and the germ of the wheat grain) contains the majority of the health beneficial components. These components, particularly non-essential phytochemicals such as carotenoids, polyphenols, phytosterols/ stanols, and dietary fibers, have been shown to reduce the risk of major chronic diseases of humans, such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and Parkinson’s disease. Such bioactives are therefore good candidates for ingredients of nutraceuticals and functional foods. There are many factors that can affect the bioactive content of cereal and pulse-based food ingredients, including genetics, growing and storage conditions, post-harvest treatments, food formulation and processing. All of these factors ultimately affect human health and wellness. Bioavailability is also important for these compounds for exerting their protective roles. Cereals and Pulses: Nutraceutical Properties and Health Benefits provides a summary of current research findings related to phytochemical composition and properties of cereal and pulse crops. The nutraceutical properties of each major cereal and pulse are discussed. Coverage of cereals and pulse crops includes barley, oats, rice, rye, corn, adlay, wheat, buckwheat, psyllium, sorghum, millet, common beans, field peas, faba beans, chickpea, lentil and soybeans. Chapters for each crop discuss methods to improve crop utilization, nutraceutical components and properties, bioactive compositions, antioxidant properties, beneficial health effects, disease prevention activities, and areas for future research. Also included are two chapters that examine the beneficial health properties of dietary fibers and antioxidants. Edited and written by an international team of respected researchers, this book is a reference guide for scientists working in food ingredients, food product research and development, functional foods and nutraceuticals, crop breeding and genetics, human nutrition, post-harvest treatment and processing of cereal grains and pulses. It will enable them to effect value-added food innovation for health promotion and disease risk reduction.

Advances in Cereal and Pseudocereal Researches for Functional Foods by Naofumi Morita,Pham Van Hung,Tomoko Maeda Pdf

Wheat and related grasses such as barley, rye, amaranth and quinoa have always been important for foods in Europe, the Levant and the western part of Asia. The food products of these cereals and pseudo-cereals have been mostly produced from white flours, which are milled from whole grains using the conventional milling method. Although the texture and sensory qualities of the products made from the white flours have been improved, the nutritive values of these products have become lower because most of the nutritional compounds such as dietary fibre, resistant starch, vitamins, minerals and microconstituents in the bran and germ have been removed from the white flours. Therefore, the consumption of whole grains has been considered to have many physiological benefits related to "western diseases" such as coronary heart disease, colon cancer and diabetes. Recently, researchers tried to find a good method to prepare foodstuffs containing sufficient amounts of nutritional compounds, especially dietary fibre and minerals. In this book, recent advances in cereal and pseudo-cereal based food researches have been reviewed. New milling techniques have been applied to produce graded flours which contain large amounts of dietary fibre, vitamins and minerals and could be applied for substitution with the conventionally milled flour in bread-making to produce functional food products with high safety, palatability and nutrition. In addition, germination of cereal and pseudo-cereal grains helps to improve the chemical compositions, nutritive values and acceptability characteristics of functional food products. All of this useful information can be seen in this book.
