Abstract:
Functional foods are foods that, in addition to providing basic nutrients, have health-promoting effects when ingested consistently over a period of time. These foods can exist in their natural forms or might have been enhanced through fortification, biotransformation, or genetic modification. Globally, a lot of attention has been drawn to its consumption as a cheaper and safer remedy for the prevention, treatment, and management of several health-related conditions, including those of reproductive difficulties such as infertility. Infertility is a condition that is prevalent among some marrie

Abstract:
Fermented foods play a significant role in the diets of many cultures, and fermentation has been recognized for its many health benefits. During fermentation, the physical and biochemical changes due to microorganisms are crucial to the long-term stability of fermented foods. Recently, fermented foods have attracted the attention of scientists all over the world. Some putative mechanisms that explain how fermented foods affect health are the potential probiotic effects of the microorganisms in fermented foods, bioactive peptides and biogenic amines produced as a result of fermentation, phenoli

Abstract:
Anthocyanins are among the most interesting and vigorously studied plant compounds, representing a large class of over 700 polyphenolic pigments within the flavonoid family that exist ubiquitously in the human diet. They are “nature’s colors,” responsible for providing the beautiful red-orange to blue-violet hues present in many leaves, flowers, vegetables, and fruits, especially berries. The beginning of the 21st century has witnessed a renaissance in research activities on anthocyanins in several areas, mainly related to their potential health-promoting properties and their increased use as

Interest in food and nutrition education is growing in response to the need for a focus on health within the community. It has in the past however been largely overlooked in schools.

Present education reforms in Australia offer the opportunity for food and nutrition education to take its vital place in the school setting. Food and nutrition promotion in schools is often perceived as curriculum based. This is neither the best nor the only approach. Tuckshops

This study was designed to get a broad estimate of the presence and the types of antimicrobial resistance genes across 52 simple ready-to-eat foods. It was also carried out to understand the benefits and drawbacks of using metagenomic sequencing, a fairly new technology, to study AMR genes. An antimicrobial is any substance that kills or inhibits the growth of microorganisms. It includes antibiotics which are used to treat bacterial infections in both humans and animals. Given the relevant selective pressures, the bacteria itself can change and find ways to survive the effects of an antimicrobi

Abstract:
The recipe’s in this book are put together to highlight integration in sustainable agriculture at the IIHS Kengeri Campus, emphasizing mixed cropping as a key practice for enhancing biodiversity, soil health, and food security. The campus utilizes agro-ecological methods that reduce reliance on chemical inputs while promoting resilience through intercropping, organic composting, and integrated pest management. The agricultural plots at the campus are cultivated with millets, pulses, and oilseeds, demonstrating a sustainable model that supports both ecological balance and nutritional diversity.

Abstract:
Pesticides are chemicals used in agriculture and residential areas to repel or control certain forms of plant or animal life that are considered to be pests. Many of these chemicals are harmful and may damage the DNA, alter gene expression, induce oxidative stress, or act as Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs). Some pesticides have also been classified as potentially promoting cancer by international regulatory bodies. People working with pesticides may be exposed to higher levels, whilst the rest of the population is primarily exposed through the diet or when pesticides are used in resident

Abstract:
This literature review aimed to provide insight into the situational, social, emotional and psychological roles of food and how variation among them influence buying and eating decisions. The report aims to respond to the following questions: What are the key psychological processes that we should consider when thinking about our food choices? What characteristics of a person, place or product can influence these processes? What approaches to influence food choice have been tried and found effective – and what is the psychology behind them? Which approaches to promoting positive food choices s

Abstract:
The services sector is composed of a diverse range of services--from retail and business services to education and health. Some services are used as inputs in production while others have direct impacts on human capital development. In the Philippines, services account for 60 percent of its gross domestic product and almost 57 percent of employment. Across regions and subsectors, however, the contribution of services varies. Using a simple shift-share technique is used which decomposes changes into three factors: the national share (growth effect), the industry mix (sectoral effect), and the r

Abstract:
Pesticides are agricultural technologies that farmers use to control pests and weeds and remain an important modern input for crop production including vegetable farming. There are many types of pesticides, such as insecticides, fungicides, rodenticides and herbicides, that target different threats to crops. While the potential production benefits of chemical pesticides are undeniable, people are becoming more aware of their risks. There is an array of dangers associated with inappropriate pesticide use. As pesticides are a poison, they pose inherent health risks to the farmers exposed to them

Abstract:
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly being integrated into people’s lives, reshaping industries, and enabling previously unimagined innovation, even in agriculture. Generative AI focuses on creating content like text and pictures based on vast quantities of data. ExtensionBot is a generative AI platform that supports agricultural extension by providing farmers with accurate scientific information and specific recommendations. It has been shown to deliver more accurate responses to agricultural questions than broader generative AI models. Other forms of AI have been used to analyze data to p
