the objective of this study was to evaluate the morphometric and reproductive traits of indigenous dairy goat types. it was conducted in three districts (ebnat, gonji-kolela and farta) based on the agro-ecological differences, goat population potentials and experience of the farmers using goat milk. semi-structured questionnaires, field observations, morphological and reproductive trait measure...

BACKGROUND Epidemiologic studies have linked high consumption of red and processed meat with risk of developing type 2 diabetes, whereas high dairy consumption has been associated with decreased risk, but interventions have been limited. OBJECTIVE We compared the effects on insulin sensitivity of consuming a diet high in lean red meat with minimal dairy, a diet high in primarily low-fat dairy...

OBJECTIVE Reduction in the current high levels of meat and dairy consumption may contribute to environmental as well as human health. Since meat is a major source of Fe, effects on Fe intake need to be evaluated, especially in groups vulnerable to negative Fe status. In the present study we evaluated the effects of replacing meat and dairy foods with plant-based products on environmental sustai...

On-farm, intensive feeding and processing in Australian red meat, dairy pork industries produce substantial quantities of organic waste (∼79 GL·annum−1 liquid plus ∼2 megatonnes·annum−1 solid waste) management is a major cost (∼180 million dollars. annum−1 for meat processing). Anaerobic digestion can instead extract value from as biogas energy biofertiliser to reduce operational costs environm...

Listeria monocytogenes is a human pathogen causing serious diseases. We aimed to determine food contamination with Listeria spp. in Kermanshah, Islamic Republic of Iran. Samples (185 dairy, 187 meat products and 158 ready-to-eat foods such as salads) were randomly collected from markets. After processing, samples were cultured in half-Fraser and Fraser broth followed by cultivation on PALCAM an...

Malnutrition in institutionalised elderly increases morbidity and care costs. Meat and dairy foods are high-quality protein sources so adequate intakes may reduce malnutrition risk. We aimed to determine whether inadequate intakes of meat and dairy foods contribute to malnutrition in institutionalised elderly. This cross-sectional study involved 215 elderly residents (70·2 % females, mean age 8...

Vegetarian diets are defined by the absence of meat and fish, but differences in the intake of other foods between meat-eaters and low or non-meat eaters are also important to document. We examined intakes of high-protein foods (meat, poultry, fish, legumes, nuts, vegetarian protein alternatives, dairy products, and eggs) and other major food groups (fruit, vegetables, bread, pasta, rice, snack...
