BACKGROUND Bread types with high contents of whole grains and rye are associated with beneficial health effects. Consumer characteristics of different bread consumption patterns are however not well known. OBJECTIVE To compare bread consumption patterns among Swedish adults in relation to selected socio-demographic, geographic, and lifestyle-related factors. For selected consumer groups, the ...

Bread is a major contributor to sodium intake in many countries. Reducing the salt (NaCl) content in bread might be an effective way to reduce overall sodium intake. The objectives of this study were to examine the effects of gradually lowering the salt content in brown bread, with and without flavor compensation (KCl and yeast extract), on bread consumption and sodium intake compensation by ch...

abstract the aim of this research was to investigate the enthalpy variations of iranian flat breads during storage in room temperature and determining relationship between enthalpy and amount of staling development. for this purpose, the major iranian breads including barbari, taftoon, lavash and sangak beside baguette, were prepared using standard ingredients, specific recipe, and under contro...

Replacement of wheat flour by other kinds of flour in bread making is economically important in South East Africa as wheat is mainly an imported commodity. Cassava is widely available in the region, but bread quality is impaired when large amounts of cassava are used in the bread formulation. Effect of differently processed cassavas (sun-dried, roasted and fermented) on composite cassava-wheat-...

OBJECTIVE To investigate dietary and non-dietary characteristics of wholegrain bread eaters in the Norwegian Women and Cancer study. DESIGN Cross-sectional study using an FFQ. SETTING Women were divided into two groups according to wholegrain bread consumption. SUBJECTS Adult women (n 69 471). RESULTS Median daily consumption of standardized slices of wholegrain bread was 2·5 in the low...

Fermented grains of buckwheat, oat, embryo rice and wheat, which were prepared by solid-state fermentation with Antrodia salmonea, and the mycelium was used to substitute 7% of wheat flour to make bread. No difference in proximate composition, texture profile and contents of non-volatile taste components was observed among bread samples. White bread and bread supplemented with mycelium and ferm...

Results: Before the WIC revisions, when no bread or rice was provided through WIC, white bread dominated bread purchases among WIC households (78% of volume), and almost all rice purchased was white (94%). As a result of theWIC revisions, the share of 100% whole-grain bread in total bread purchases tripled (from 8% to 24%), replacing purchases of white bread; the share of brown rice rose to 30%...

The in vitro bioaccessibility of calcium, iron and zinc of breads added with different bread spreads was determined. The mineral contents were assessed by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer and expressed in fresh weight (mg/100 g). For the mineral bioaccessibility determination, in vitro gastrointestinal digestion was applied. Among the bread samples, calcium content of wholemeal bread w...
