One twelveounce can of regular soda typically contains eight teaspoons of sugar and 130 calories ? but zero nutritional content. The American Heart Association [2] recommends that individuals assigned male at birth limit ...

Bread baking technology has an important effect on starch digestibility measured as its predicted glycemic index tested in vitro. The aim of this work was to evaluate the changes in predicted glycemic index of pound cake baked in a two-cycle microwave toaster and a conventional oven. The glycemic index was calculated from hydrolysis index values by the Granfeldt method. Non-significant differen...

Bread product quality is highly dependent to the baking process. A model for the development of product quality of bread products has been calibrated by experiments at a fixed baking temperature of 200°C and in combination with 100 W of microwave powers. The parameters in this model were estimated in sequence procedures: heat and mass transfer, then product transformations and finally product q...

This paper describes the Simple Ocean Data Assimilation (SODA) reanalysis of ocean climate variability. In the assimilation, a model forecast produced by an ocean general circulation model with an average resolution of 0.25° 0.4° 40 levels is continuously corrected by contemporaneous observations with corrections estimated every 10 days. The basic reanalysis, SODA 1.4.2, spans the 44-yr period ...

BACKGROUND Colonoscopy is a common procedure for diagnosing and screening colon cancer and other bowel-related diseases. Many studies have pointed out that using phospho-soda as a bowel preparation can cause obvious electrolyte abnormalities or acute kidney injury. Nonetheless, there are few studies related to its prevalence and risk factors in the population undergoing health examinations. Our...

The present investigation was conducted to study the true retentions of α-tocopherol, tocotrienols and β-carotene in crown daisy, unripe hot pepper, onion, garlic, and red pepper as affected by various domestic cooking methods, those were, boiling, baking, stir-frying, deep-frying, steaming, roasting, and microwaving. Fatty acid compositions were determined by GC, and HPLC were used for quantif...

The consumption of soda pop in the United States continues to increase in alarming proportions with consequent drastic effects on the dentition of many people. Patients should be asked about how much soda pop they ingest. Parents should be counseled on the effects of soda pop demineralization and begin to limit the amounts given to children at home and in schools. The dental team has the expert...

Paper sheets from Iranian olive tree produced by soda, sulphite and kraft pulping.Then the influence of pulp beating on properties of paper sheets was studied. Kraft pulp exhibited the highest holocellulose/yield -cellulose/yield ratios and the sulphite pulp the soda pulp the highest lignin/yield ratio. Paper sheets from kraft with the breaking length 5851 m, stretch 4.61%, Burst index 4.48 KN/...

the association between indoor smoke exposure due to traditional baking (baking homemade bread) and anthracosis has rarely been investigated. the aim of the present study is to quantify such association among the iranian population. a hospital based case-control study was carried out on 83 anthracotic cases and 155 controls (83 individuals with non-anthracotic pulmonary disorders from the pulmo...
