Vegan Food Products: Sources, Production Methods, Challenges and Improvement Strategies assembles the science related to different vegan foods in a comprehensive reference that discusses the benefits and challenges of vegan food products. Comprised of 11 chapters, the book covers the vegan alternatives of different food groups, including meat, fish, egg, and dairy. It also presents a variety of vegan protein sources, such as plant-based proteins, macro- and microalgae and single-cell proteins. Sections explore production methods and technologies, including extrusion, dry-fractionation methods for enriching proteins, 3D printing, and in vitro methods. In addition, the health aspects of vegan foods, with a specific chapter devoted to the fortification studies, are covered, as well as the vegan food market, the consumer perception, and the sensory and nutritional quality of vegan products. Edited by well-known global researchers in the field, this book provides readers with a broad review of the most recent research on the opportunities and challenges of vegan ingredients and foods.Covers vegan alternatives of different food groups including meat, fish, egg, and dairyPresents vegan protein sources of plant-based and microbial originsExplores health aspects of vegan foods, consumer perception, and legislation aspectsDiscusses production methods and technology of vegan foods

Starch and Health: Nutrition, Metabolism and Medical Applications, a volume in the Applications of Starches in Food and Packaging series, discusses the use of starch and its role in human health. The book provides detailed information on the glycemic index of various starches, the role of resistant starch in gut health, and practical starch usage in managing disorders such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Chapters deal with digestive metabolism of starch, different types of resistant starches and its health benefits, starch in gut, cardiovascular, and mental health, innovations in starch-based medical applications, and its implications in food allergies and intolerances.This comprehensive approach ensures that the volume serves as both an informative guide and a practical tool for those in the field. By compiling the latest research findings, methodologies, and case studies, this book serves as a valuable resource for scientists, researchers, and industry professionals seeking to harness the potential of starch in human health.Covers different types of starches, recent advances in starch modification, and its consequences for human healthProvides information on the glycemic index of various starches, the role of resistant starch in gut health, and practical starch uses in managing disorders such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseaseBrings information on new starch applications, such as increasing dietary fiber content and producing prebiotic formulations
