A Collaborative Study to Validate in vitro Assays for Protein Digestibility Assessment using pH-drop and pH-stat Methods

The diversification of protein sources used in food formulation has increased the need to assess protein quality beyond traditional food forms. Protein digestibility is a key component of the Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS), the regulatory metric derived from rodent bioassays.

A Primer for the Evaluation and Integration of Dietary Intake and Physical Activity Digital Measurement Tools into Nutrition and Dietetics Practice

Unhealthy eating habits and physical inactivity increase the risk or severity of obesity, coronary heart disease, diabetes mellitus, osteoarthritis, some cancers, and depression. Primary prevention or treatments to combat these conditions include the adoption of a healthy diet without energy excess, routine physical activity, reducing sedentary time, and maintenance of a healthy body weight. Technological innovations have become widely accepted and are increasingly used to assess and monitor lifestyle behavior.

A Qualitative Look at Perception and Experience of Sodium Reduction Strategies in the Food Industry through Focus Groups and Individual Interviews

Future efforts to reduce the incidence of sodium overconsumption should be carried out through multiple avenues rather than focusing on the agency of consumers, the food sector, or research alone.

A Systematic Review Exploring Potential Relationships between Dietary Erythritol and Human Health Outcomes

Erythritol is a sweetener that is found naturally in many foods and is produced within our own bodies. Recently, there have been questions raised about the safety of erythritol, and whether it might lead to adverse cardiovascular events.
