Abstract:
6 pp.<br>Grain amaranth was a dietary staple for Central American Indians before Columbus arrived in the New World.1 Today, in Mexico, amaranth is popped like popcorn and mixed with sugar or honey to make a popular sweet treat, called “Alegría” which is the Spanish word for joy (Figure 1). Amaranth is a nutritious grain, similar to chia seeds2 and quinoa, providing high amount of plant protein, fiber, iron, and calcium. This article can help you learn more about amaranth, and show you how to incorporate them into your balanced diet.

Abstract:
Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) among children remains a huge burden in Africa. Due to poverty, such children rely on the same starchy staples, such as sorghum, consumed in the household, as both their source of energy and protein. However, sorghum has a low protein quality, particularly with respect to the indispensable amino acid lysine and also protein digestibility. Local pulses such as cowpea are important vehicles to address PEM. Biscuits are favoured as means of fortification because they are palatable, nutrient-dense, in ready-to-eat form and have a long shelf-life. Therefore, the ob

Lysine deficiency is a major nutritional problem faced by poor people living in the arid and semi-arid tropics who depend on sorghum as their staple food.

Therefore, this study investigated the effects of compositing with the African grain legume, cowpea, on the protein and functional quality of important traditional African sorghum foods.

Abstract:
Improving diversity of food systems by targeting whole grain cereals, pseudo-cereals, and millets is essential to enhance nutritional qualities beyond macro and micronutrient balance and to address emerging global food and nutritional security-linked public health challenges. However, human health relevant nutritional parameters of whole grains vary widely among species, genotypes, growing conditions, and further due to different processing methods. Therefore, it is important to screen human health relevant nutritional parameters of these whole grains prior to targeting them for wider public h

Thesis (MSc Food Sc )--Stellenbosch University, 2003.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Kepi is a refreshing, fermented dairy beverage that differs from other fermented milk products in that it is produced with a mixed microbial community which is confined to discrete grains. These grains can be recovered as a solid matrix at the end of the fermentation and then be reutilised as a starter to ferment the next batch of milk. The grain microbial community consists of a symbiotic association of yeasts and lactic acid bacteria, but the overall composition of the grains has not been completely elucidated.

Abstract:
Le cadmium (Cd) est un élément toxique. Les activités humaines ont contaminé un large éventail de sols agricoles. L'exposition de l'homme au Cd se fait majoritairement par voie alimentaire, notamment à travers les aliments de base tels que les céréales. Le blé dur accumule naturellement plus de Cd dans ses grains que les autres céréales. Une fraction significative de la production française de blé dur dépasse la limite réglementaire européenne fixée pour le Cd. Il est donc nécessaire de réduire l'accumulation de Cd dans les grains de blé dur. Cette thèse portant sur l'écophysiologie de l'alloc
