The study examined the effects of two methods processing de-hulled sunflower seed meal (SFM) from same batch seeds. Sunflower was fed to broilers as (MSFM) or after it had been pelleted (PSFM) at 75 °C and 360 kPa pressure pass through a 3 mm mesh. Three diets were prepared, namely balancer feed (BF) containing 200 g/kg MSFM PSFM. They 30 pens (two birds each) with male Ross 308 broilers, 8 21 ...

BACKGROUND Longitudinal studies have implicated both marital distress and depression in the development of the metabolic syndrome, a risk factor for diabetes and cardiovascular disease. This study addressed the impact of hostile marital interactions and a mood disorder history on obesity-related metabolic responses to high-fat meals. METHODS This double-blind, randomized crossover study inclu...

The supplementation of livestock feed with animal protein is a present cause for public concern, and plant protein shortages have become increasingly prominent in China. This conflict may be resolved by fully utilizing currently available sources of plant protein. We estimated the rumen degradability and the small intestinal digestibility of the amino acids (AA) in rapeseed meal (RSM), soybean ...

Postprandial lipemia impairs endothelial function possibly via an oxidative stress mechanism. A stearic acid-rich triacylglycerol (TAG) (shea butter) results in a blunted postprandial increase in plasma TAG compared with an oleic acid-rich TAG; however, its acute effects on endothelial function and oxidative stress are unknown. A randomized crossover trial (n = 17 men) compared the effects of 5...

BACKGROUND Plant cell walls are known to influence the rate and extent of lipid release from plant food tissues during digestion; however, the effect of cell wall structure on postprandial lipemia is unknown. OBJECTIVE The objective was to investigate the effects of lipid release (bioaccessibility) on postprandial lipemia by comparing lipid encapsulated by cell walls with lipid present as fre...
