National food supply data and dietary surveys are essential to estimate nutrient intakes and monitor trends, yet there are few published studies estimating added sugars consumption. The purpose of this report was to estimate and trend added sugars intakes and their contribution to total energy intake among Canadians by, first, using Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) nutrition survey data ...

abstract osmoreguolation is a physiological processes that plant cell uses to maintain water balance and it is generally caused by metabolite accumulation inside the cell. inoculated legumes by some drought tolerant sinorhizobium isolates helps osmoreguolation by increasing biological nitrogen fixation. in order to find some drought tolerant sinorhizobium isolates, 80 isolates were isolated and...

in this research, the effect of water stress on the soluble sugars, starch and proteins content of two different cultivars (kaka and jam) of chickpea (cicer arietinum) was studied. the results showed that the soluble sugars increased while starch decreased during the stress in shoot and root of both cultivars. increasing of soluble sugars and decreasing of starch hall a positive correlation wit...

High intakes of dietary sugars in the setting of a worldwide pandemic of obesity and cardiovascular disease have heightened concerns about the adverse effects of excessive consumption of sugars. In 2001 to 2004, the usual intake of added sugars for Americans was 22.2 teaspoons per day (355 calories per day). Between 1970 and 2005, average annual availability of sugars/added sugars increased by ...

BACKGROUND Measurement error in self-reported sugars intake may be obscuring the association between sugars and cancer risk in nutritional epidemiologic studies. METHODS We used 24-hour urinary sucrose and fructose as a predictive biomarker for total sugars, to assess measurement error in self-reported sugars intake. The Nutrition and Physical Activity Assessment Study (NPAAS) is a biomarker ...

Studies were conducted to establish changes in nib acidification and biochemical composition (sugars concentration, proteins and free fatty acids) during fermentation of pulp pre-conditioned cocoa beans using a 4 x 3 full factorial experimental design with pod storage (0, 3, 7 and 10 days) and fermentation time (0, 3 and 6 days) as the principal factors. Non-volatile (titratable) acidity, pH, s...

UDP-Sugars comprise the dominant class of nucleotide sugars in isolated soybean axes during early germination. While "dry" axes contain 1 nanomole per axis of UDP-sugars, further synthesis is initiated upon imbibition such that the concentration of total UDP-sugars reaches 8 nanomoles per axis or roughly 1 millimolar after 10 hours, when the axes begin to elongate. The GDP-sugars are essentiall...
