Although salt is reported to exacerbate health trouble, fermented foods have beneficial effects. We hypothesized that doenjang could reduce blood pressure in Sprague–Dawley (SD) rats fed a high-salt diet. Eighteen SD rats were divided into three groups: normal-salt (NS) group, high-salt (HS) group, and high-salt with doenjang (HSD) group. The salinity of doenjang and saltwater was adjusted to 8% using Mohr’s method. Blood pressure was significantly reduced in the HSD group compared with the HS group. Water intake and urine excretion volume has significantly increased in the HS group compared with the HSD group. The excreted concentrations of urine sodium, urine potassium, and feces potassium significantly increased in the HSD group compared with the HS and NS groups. Renin level was significantly decreased in the HSD group compared to the other groups. These results indicate that eating traditional salty fermented food is not a direct cause of hypertension, and the intake of doenjang in normal healthy animals improved blood pressure. Keywords: high-salt diet; blood pressure; doenjang; renin; soybean paste 1. Introduction Doenjang, Korean soy paste, is a fermented soybean product in traditional Korean cuisine. Doenjang is the basis of various dishes such as soup, stew, and salad dressing. Doenjang is produced by fermentation with Bacillus subtilis and mold such as Aspergillus, Rhozopus, and Mucor species. Doenjang has a long fermentation period that extends from 2 to 24 months. Due to its fermentation, doenjang contains a high level of bioactive compounds such as isoflavones and saponins [1]. In addition, doenjang is a good source of essential amino acids, minerals, vitamins, and phenolic compounds [2,3]. In previous studies, doenjang showed anti-obesity effects in rat fed with high-fat diet [4], and overweight adults [5–7], anti-diabetic effects in high-fat diet-induced obese mice [8,9], anti-cancer effects in carcinogenic mice [10,11], and anti-inflammation effects in mice [12–14]. The intake of doenjang reduces body fat mass in overweight subjects [5] and decreases visceral or abdominal fat mass in overweight subjects with mutant alleles of PPAR-gamma or uncoupling protein-1 [6,7]. In the long term, the intake of fermented doenjang improved glucose tolerance and inhibited hyperglycemia in high-fat diet-induced obese mice [8,9]. These health benefits may be due to the higher content of aglycone isoflavones and the diversity and abundance of Bacillus probiotic strains [4,9]. Despite the health benefits, doenjang fermentation requires a large amount of salt. Doenjang is traditionally made from fermented meju that has been dipped in a 18%–20% salt solution for more than 30 days [15]. Doenjang is fermented with 4 kg of meju dipped in brine, 10 L of water, and 1.25 kg of salt; the final salinity of traditional doenjang is 12% [2].

    A C T A K O R A N A VOL. 11, NO. 3, DECEMBER 2008: 235–269 BOOK REVIEWS Human Decency . By Kong Ji Yŏng. Translated by Bruce and Ju-Chan Fulton. Published by Jimoondang as part of the Portable Library of Korean Literature, Short Fiction no. 24. Oftentimes, contemporary Korean fiction takes the reader, sometimes by force, down the dark memory lane of modern Korean history. Because so many works of contemporary Korean fiction are highly referential, the reader is often enticed to consider a text’s social and political background. While this is not a unique phenomenon to Korea—works of literature from all corners of the world often deal to greater or lesser extents with pressing political and social issues—it seems striking that Korean works of fiction so frequently draw the attention of their readers to the political and social realities being depicted, and do so in a manner that come at the expense of poetic expression. Kong Ji Yŏng’s short stories, “Human Decency” and “Dreams,” included in the collection Human Decency published by Jimoondang, are both highly referential texts. Since her works are so fraught with political and social references, this review will first examine the historical context in which Kong Ji Yŏng writes, and will then examine the stories in greater detail. In the collection of essays, Twentieth Century Korean Literature , it is noted that “an important strand of thought regarding literature in 1980s Korea was that it should interrogate social concerns and articulate communal values... the eighties were, in many ways, an era of causes.

It is often used as a meat analogue or meat extender. It is quick to cook, with a protein content comparable to certain meats. TVP can be made from soy flour or concentrate, containing 50% and 70% soy protein, respectively; they have a mild beany flavor. Both require rehydration before use, sometimes with flavoring added in the same step. TVP is extruded, causing a change in the structure of the soy protein which results in a fibrous, spongy matrix, similar in texture to meat. In its dehydrated form, TVP has a shelf life of longer than a year, but will spoil within several days after being hydrated. In its flaked form, it can be used similarly to ground meat.

  • The Versatile Veggie Burger Home-Made Veggie (Or ‘Vegetarian’) Burgers Are a Delicious and Nutritious Alternative to the Traditional Hamburger
    From the Food Bank Kitchen The Versatile Veggie Burger Home-made veggie (or ‘vegetarian’) burgers are a delicious and nutritious alternative to the traditional hamburger. Making veggie burgers instead of beef hamburgers is an easy way to eat less calories, fat, and cholesterol, while including more lean protein, extra fiber, vitamins and minerals into your diet. The American Cancer Society recommends cutting down on red meats (hamburgers, hot dogs, and deli meats) to reduce the risk of developing certain cancers. Eating lean, vegetarian sources of protein instead of red meat may also lower your risk of developing chronic diseases like obesity and heart disease. It is easy and inexpensive to make veggie burgers at home, and you can find frozen veggie burgers at just about any supermarket, even WalMart! See next page for the top-rated and healthiest store-bought veggie burger brands. The best thing about making your own veggie burgers is that they can be made with just about anything you might have in the kitchen, with low-cost ingredients that are full of fiber and protein. Examples include using canned or dried beans like black beans, pinto beans, red or white beans and lentils; grains like brown rice, oatmeal, or flour and bread crumbs; frozen and canned vegetables like carrots, potatoes, onions, and peppers, and chopped nuts and sunflower seeds. You can make it mild or spicy, according to your taste. If you don’t have all of the ingredients in the recipes below, try substituting the missing item with another one listed above! Veggie Burgers can be baked, grilled, or sautéed in a fry pan on the stove, and eaten on a bun, in a pita, or between slices of bread with lettuce, tomato, ketchup and mustard, just like regular hamburgers! Veggie burgers are also great topped with hummus or salsa, eaten with rice, or crumbled on a salad.

  • Soy Free Diet Avoiding Soy
    SOY FREE DIET AVOIDING SOY An allergy to soy is common in babies and young children, studies show that often children outgrow a soy allergy by age 3 years and the majority by age 10. Soybeans are a member of the legume family; examples of other legumes include beans, peas, lentils and peanut. It is important to remember that children with a soy allergy are not necessarily allergic to other legumes, request more clarification from your allergist if you are concerned. Children with a soy allergy may have nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, bloody stool, difficulty breathing, and or a skin reaction after eating or drinking soy products. These symptoms can be avoided by following a soy free diet. What foods are not allowed on a soy free diet? Soy beans and edamame Soy products, including tofu, miso, natto, soy sauce (including sho yu, tamari), soy milk/creamer/ice cream/yogurt, soy nuts and soy protein, tempeh, textured vegetable protein (TVP) Caution with processed foods - soy is widely used manufactured food products – remember to carefully read labels. o Soy products and derivatives can be found in many foods, including baked goods, canned tuna and meat, cereals, cookies, crackers, high-protein energy bars, drinks and snacks, infant formulas, low- fat peanut butter, processed meats, sauces, chips, canned broths and soups, condiments and salad dressings (Bragg’s Liquid Aminos) USE EXTRA CAUTION WITH ASIAN CUISINE: Asian cuisine are considered high-risk for people with soy allergy due to the common use of soy as an ingredient and the possibility of cross-contamination, even if a soy-free item is ordered.

Added to Meju (Korean Soybean Koji) Dough on Variation of Nutritional Ingredients and Bacterial Community Diversity in Doenjang (Korean Soybean Paste) Bo Young Jeon, Doo Hyun Park* Department of Biological Engineering, Seokyeong University, Seoul, South Korea. Email: *[email protected] Received May 21st, 2012; revised July 2nd, 2012; accepted July 9th, 2012 ABSTRACT In this study, effect of rice added to meju dough was evaluated based on the variation of nutritional ingredients and bacterial community diversity in finished doenjang. The ratio of rice added to meju dough (cooked and crushed soybean before fermentation) was 0, 0.2, and 0.4 based on dry weight. Free amino acids, minerals, polyphenol, and total pheno- lic compounds relatively decreased by addition of rice. However, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl free radical (DPPH) scavenging and ferric ion reduction activity was not influenced. Organic acids, which are fermentation metabolites, sig- nificantly increased in proportion to percentage balance of rice. Seven and four volatile compounds (VCs) were de- tected in doenjang prepared without and with rice, respectively, and contents of VCs were significantly lower in the rice-supplemented doenjang. Bacterial community diversity was significantly increased by addition of rice to meju dough. Rice alters chemical composition, fermentation products, and bacterial diversity, but does not downgrade the nature of doenjang. Keywords: Soybean Koji; Soybean Paste; Rice; Antioxidant Activity; Bacterial Community 1. Introduction on the basis of dry weight, and also contains physiologi- cally functional compounds such as polyphenol, total Doenjang is a Korean soy paste that has been prepared phenolic compounds, isoflavones, vitamin E, saponin, traditionally by long-term ripening of meju under high and anthocyanin [5-7].

  • Soy-Free Diets
    Soy-Free Diets If you feel frustrated and helpless due to food allergies, you are not alone. Up to 60% of Americans have shown signs of food allergy at one time or another. About 10% of food allergy sufferers exhibit symptoms serious enough to see a doctor. Food allergy typically does not appear overnight. In susceptible people allergies to foods eaten regularly (if not daily) progress over time. Because allergy onset is subtle, identifying offending foods can be difficult and often requires trial diets. Once the food has been identified, the patient may incorporate acceptable substitutes in his or her diet and avoid the food completely. Nearly any type of food can cause allergy, but cow’s milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, nuts, corn, cereal grains, chocolate, Citrus fruits, peanuts and soy products most commonly provoke reactions. Because many foods come from related plant and animal species, which contain cross-reacting substances, a person may suffer allergic reaction from a food ha has never eaten. The website www.dpcAlaSTAT.com provides information on specific allergens, peak pollination seasons, and allergen cross-reactivity. The following diet excludes all soybeans and soy bean products, including vegetable protein, lecithin, flour and vegetable oil. To eliminate soy completely, you must read all labels before purchasing commercially prepared foods.
