Abstract:

The aims of presentation consist of food, nutrition, food nutrients, health, financial crises, poverty and hunger were studied and reported that Food and Food and nutrition is the most powerful tool for the development of health, basic need of daily life, reduction in financial crises, poverty and hunger in the world. Food is any substance consumed to provide nutritional support and contains essential nutrients such as carbohydrates, lipids, protiens, vitamins and minerals. The major sources of food are plants and animals. Most of the food has its origin in plants. Some food is obtained directly from plants but even animals that are use as a food source or as by feeding them food derived from plants serial grain is a staple food that provides more food energy worldwide that other types of crops. The healthy and balanced diets from food groups including the different agro base industries like livestock and dairy development, poultry, aqua culture, api culture, crop production. Nutrition is the study of food at work in our body, are the source of energy and the medium for which our nutrients can function. The essential nutrients for life include carbohydrates, protiens, lipids, vitamins, minerals and water in the solvent for all soluble ingredients in the blood and cell. The study reported that the industry of food and nutrition are necessary for the development of health, basic need of life, absorbing millions of technical and non-technical person, generate income, create employment, reduce financial crises, poverty and hunger in the world.

Abstract:

Sustentation of homeostatic processes is the basic principle of vital activity of organism. Even small swings of concentration of some metabolites in the blood, especially glucose, lead to a violation of course of metabolic processes and pose a threat to viral activity of organism. Neuro-hormonal system, cytokine system and number of cell signaling systems participate in regulation of rate of metabolic processes. The influence of pharmaceutical preparations on these regulation systems can promote the development of serious complications, so there is an active search of natural food compounds with high bioactivity. The greatest interest in this situation is fucoidan, which is sulfated polysaccharide of brown seaweed. It is shown that it: (1) Supports the work of the central nervous system by moderately reducing the death of cholinergic neurons and maintaining the level of dopamine, (2) interferes with the development of hormonal imbalance, (3) promotes a decrease in the level of inflammatory cytokines in the blood and maintenance of the concentration of proinflammatory, (4) improves the functioning of the insulin cascade signaling systems at the mTOR kinase level by activating the translation process, (5) leads to a decrease in free radicals (antioxidant) and the restoration of their level (a prooxidant), and (6) supports the homeostasis of the coagulation system due to anticoagulant and procoagulant properties. In this way, fucoidan should be attributed to nutraceuticals that promote health, improve quality and longevity of a person.

Abstract:

Poultry is to a rather high extent perishable and will quickly become rotten if kept in inappropriate conditions. Using active antimicrobial coating is one of the methods for prolonging the shelf life of such products. In this study, a sample of uncoated chicken fillet was used as control sample and another chicken fillet samples with active antimicrobial coatings of chitosan and an active chitosan-nissan coating were used as the experimental sample. The chicken fillets coated with the abovementioned active coatings were packaged to prevent contamination with conventional cellophane and the smart indicator, as the color indicator of bromothymol blue in this study (5 ml indicator was added between the two layers of cellophane in 5×6 dimensions), was packaged in both packages containing chicken fillet with active coating and the control sample without active coating. Then, the samples were stored at 4ºC for seven days and the microbiological tests (total bacterial count) of TVN and pH tests were performed for 1, 3, 5 and 7 days. Finally, the relationship between these tests and the change in the color of chicken fillet was investigated. The results of this study indicated that the Bromothymol blue color at the pH range of 6-7, being blue in alkali pH and yellow acidic pH, can be used for evaluating the chicken fillet corruption packaged with active coatings.

Abstract:

Nutrition is the basis of life activity, but in recent years it has been the main cause of morbidity and mortality in humans. Apparently we are missing very important aspects in the science of nutrition. All the theories of balanced nutrition are aimed at solving issues of the nutrition safety and adequacy. Nutrition is primarily aimed at ensuring the repair and renewal of protein and cellular structures and the storage of excess energy flow. This process occurs due to the secretion of the insulin hormone and the activation of the parasympathetic nervous system. However, this leads to a loss of efficiency-well-fed animal is not a hunter. Currently, a number of proposed products to ensure the rehabilitation processes, which are presented in the form of Food pyramid. When we work, we use the energy reserves of the body. This is the so-called endogenous nutrition, which are presented in the form of Energy pyramid. Nowadays the life style of a person has changed significantly. There is a decline in physical labor and a predominance of intellectual and operator activities, which led to a reduction in fat consumption and increased use of glucose. This led to the development of a deficit of the one energy source (glucose), against an excess of the other-fats. An energy imbalance has been developed that contributes to the increase in metabolic pathologies-diabetes, obesity and cardiovascular diseases. It is necessary to contribute to the correction of energy imbalance, through the use of specialized products in the phase of work or in the post-absorbent period. Based on such principles, we have developed a specialized product for feeding obese patients, to which English patent GB 2496119 of January 22, 2014 was received. This product does not induce the secretion of insulin, so working capacity remains; it improves the glucose homeostasis in reduced diet and prevents the development of functional disorders that accompany the usual technology directed to body weight reduction.

Abstract:

Prunus persica (L.) Batsch is a mesocarp and endocarp of the fruit was tested and proved to be a potent scavenger of free radicals like nitrous oxide, hydroxyl ions, ferrous ions. The fruit was also tested for its beta carotene, vitamin A, vitamin C, mineral and crude fiber contents. The toxicity study (LD50) showed no mortality up to a maximum dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight. Further there were no remarkable changes in animal behavior, body and organ weight. Hematological parameters (RBC, WBC, hemoglobin), biochemical parameters (urea, uric acid, creatinine, aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase) showed no significant changes compared to control models. Histopathological study showed no adverse effects on hepatic, kidney and pancreatic tissues. Hence the studies proved that Prunus persica fruit is a potent candidate against the oxidants and thereby a better solution for the diseases associated.

Abstract:

Obesity is a complex, multi-factorial disease that is becoming increasingly common among adults and children worldwide. Once considered a problem only in developed countries, overweight and obesity are own dramatically on the rise in the developing countries as well, particularly in urban setting this is particular concern for health professionals because according to recent NIH study, obese individuals have 50 to 100% increased risk of premature death from all causes compared to normal weight individuals. The National Heart Lungs and Blood Institutes (NHLBI) clinical guideline on the identification evaluation and treatment of overweight and obesity in adults states next to smoking, obesity is the second leading cause of preventable death in the world specially US today. Obese individuals have second increased risk of diabetes coronary heart disease, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, stroke, gallbladder disease, sleep apnea, osteoarthritis, respiratory problems and certain types of cancers (endometrial, breast, prostate and colon), all of which increase of mortality. The life expectancy of moderately obese person could be shortened by 2 to 5 years while the life expectancy of morbidly obese man with a BMI greater than 40 kg/m2 is likely to be reduced by almost 13 years. The WHO predicts that death from diabetes complication will increase 50% worldwide in the United States. A report from the non-profit business group conference board suggests obesity is costing United States business $45 million annually in medical expenses and lost productivity. The NH estimates total costs for obesity treatment to be approximately $17 million. There is strong evidence that a modest weight loss of 10% weight will result in reduction of blood pressure, fasting glucose and lipid levels. Treatment should be aggressive for obese individuals who have three or more of the following risk factors: cigarette smoking, hypertension, high LDL-cholesterol levels, low HDL cholesterol levels elevated fasting glucose levels and lipids levels, low HDL cholesterol levels, elevated fasting glucose levels and family history of coronary heart disease and age over 45 to 55 years for men and women, respectively. The best way to prevent obesity is to change the setting of eating habits plus of daily routine by adding small changes in your life like using stairs instead of elevator, drinking a lot of water, shifting to organic food, exposure of sunlight and 30 minutes exercise. If you are less motivated person and at the same time you want to escape yourself from obesity then go through this link. Always think about the result you will get after such struggle and hard work.
