  • Potential Metabolic Effect of Sucralose Following an Oral Glucose Load in Subjects with Obesity and Normal-Weight Subjects
    POTENTIAL METABOLIC EFFECT OF SUCRALOSE FOLLOWING AN ORAL GLUCOSE LOAD IN SUBJECTS WITH OBESITY AND NORMAL-WEIGHT SUBJECTS BY ALEXANDER DANIEL NICHOL THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Food Science and Human Nutrition with a concentration in Human Nutrition in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2018 Urbana, Illinois Master’s Committee: Assistant Professor M. Yanina Pepino de Gruev, Chair Assistant Professor Megan J. Dailey Professor Emeritus John W. Erdman ABSTRACT Objective: Whether sucralose, the most commonly used non-nutritive sweetener (NNS), affects glucose metabolism in people is unclear. It has been reported that, when consumed acutely before an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), sucralose enhances insulinemic responses and decreases insulin sensitivity in subjects with obesity who are not regular consumers of NNS. However, studies in normal-weight adults, none of which control for use of NNS, found sucralose does not affect insulin responses to the ingestion of glucose or other carbohydrates. The objectives of the current study are to determine if those effects of sucralose can be replicated in subjects with obesity, are generalizable to normal-weight subjects when controlling for history of NNS use, and are caused merely by the sweet taste of sucralose (i.e., sham-feeding). In addition, with the aim of identifying potential mechanisms by which sucralose may decrease postprandial insulin sensitivity, we here investigated whole-body glucose kinetics by using a dual-tracer approach. Finally, we tested the hypothesis that, due to the compromised intestinal permeability associated with obesity, sucralose consumption is associated with higher plasma sucralose concentrations in people with obesity.

  • Vegan Polish and Romanian Cooking
    Vegan Polish/Romanian Cooking class RECIPES EGGPLANT SPREAD Prep Time: 10 min, Cook Time: 60 min (Traditional Romanian recipe) 4-6 eggplants ½ cup olive oil ¼ cup finely chopped onion, bulb or spring onion Salt to taste Choose 4-6 firm eggplants, shiny and dark in color. I usually roast as many as fit my baking tray, six. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleaning afterwards. The juice that comes out of the eggplant usually burns and hardens. Bake/roast the whole eggplant at 450F for about 1 hour, until very soft. Using long tongs turn them over once after the first 25 minutes,. When done, scoop up the flesh with a spoon while still hot. Pick out carefully all the black spots of burnt skin. Some people prefer to remove the seeds too, but I never do this. Drain for 30 minutes in a large colander or a tilted cutting board. With a long knife, chop the eggplant flesh until it is almost like paste. You can freeze it at this point for later use. Mix it well with salt, a couple of tablespoons olive oil, and chopped onion by taste. You can use different types of onion: green spring onion, purple, or yellow onion. VARIATION: Add seeded and finely diced tomatoes and cucumbers. Or, just decorate and serve the spread with sliced tomatoes. Great for stuffing tomatoes, too. Try adding a tablespoon of Vegenaise for a different flavor. If roasted directly on the fire (grill or stovetop fire – very messy!!!) they will have a specific smoke flavor, that many people enjoy.

  • Words on Wellness: a Newsletter February 2014
    Words on Wellness: A Newsletter February 2014 Sugar Consumption What is the impact of high levels of sugar consumption? New research data has shed light on previously unrecognized health risks of sugar consumption. Moderation is important when it comes to sugar, especially in terms of our children’s diets. When you eat something sugary, it’s quickly digested and absorbed into your blood, which can temporarily give you energy and make you feel awake. However, it quickly wears off and you come back down to where you feel weak and tired. Excess sugar may have a direct impact on the brain and your child’s learning. A new study out of UCLA shows that fructose impairs memory and learning. Because insulin is able to pass through your blood-brain barrier, it can trigger neurological processes that are important for learning and memory. Researchers from the study say that consuming large amounts of fructose may block insulin's ability to regulate how your brain cells store and use sugar for the energy needed to fuel thoughts and emotions. “Sugar is a poison by itself when consumed at high doses,” says renowned endocrinologist Dr Robert Lustig of the University of California, San Francisco. Some of the implications of excessive sugar intake as identified by Dr. Lustig and other researchers include a suppressed immune system; increased inflammation; raised insulin levels; and the potential to increase mood swings, depression, and hyperactivity. The article below provides more detail on Dr. Lustig’s research. http://www.sfgate.com/health/article/UCSF-scientists-declare-war-on-sugar-in-food- 2927153.php#page-2 What are appropriate levels of sugar intake? Americans are consuming on average between 130 and 150 pounds of sugar per year.

  • Meals for Easy Swallowing
    1 INTRODUCTION Swallowing can become a significant problem for patients with ALS; and the joys and pleasures of eating become replaced with discomfort and anxiety. At an early stage patients may begin to have difficulty with foods such as popcorn, cornbread or nuts, and choking episodes may occur. Subsequently other foods cannot be swallowed readily, and the effort of chewing and swallowing turns a pleasurable experience into a burden. For the patient, the act of swallowing becomes compromised and the ordeal of eating becomes more time consuming. For the spouse, the task of preparing edible and appetizing foods poses an increasing challenge. The following collection of recipes is derived from our patients and their creative spouses who translated their caring into foods that look good, taste good, are easy to chew and to swallow, and minimize discomfort. Included are recipes for meats and other protein containing foods, fruits or fruit drinks, vegetables or dishes containing vegetables, as well as breads. Selections of beverages, desserts, and sauces are provided to add needed fat and calories to the diet. A balanced diet normally supplies enough nutrients for daily needs plus some extra. It is recommended that daily menu plans be made using the Basic Four Food Groups as the backbone. The suggested amounts are: Food GrouD Amount Per Dav Eauivalent to One Serving Milk 2 servings 1 cup pudding 1 cup milk or yogurt 1-3/4 cups ice cream 1-1/2 02. cheese 2 cups cottage cheese Meat 2 servings 2 02. lean meat, fish, poultry 2 eggs 4 Tbsps.

  • Low Fructose Diet
    Low Fructose Diet What is Fructose? Fructose is a natural sugar found in fruit, fruit juices, honey, and agave syrup. It is also found in some vegetables and wheat products in another form called fructans (fructose sugars in a long chain). High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is another form of fructose commonly used in processed foods. What is Fructose Intolerance? Fructose intolerance, also called dietary fructose intolerance or fructose malabsorption, happens when a person cannot properly absorb normal amounts of fructose (>25 grams per meal). What are common symptoms? Unabsorbed fructose that reaches the large intestine can be fermented (converted into gas) by bacteria causing symptoms like abdominal pain, gas, belching, and bloating. Unabsorbed fructose can also pull water back into the colon, increasing gut motility and causing diarrhea. Less common symptoms of fructose intolerance can include reflux, depression, fatigue, brain fog, headache, weight loss, and sugar cravings. How is Fructose Intolerance diagnosed? Anyone can develop fructose intolerance, but it is more common among individuals with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or other gastrointestinal disorders. A Hydrogen Breath Test is used to diagnosis fructose intolerance. An abnormal (positive) test indicates the need for a low fructose diet. What is a Low Fructose Diet? A low fructose diet reduces the amount of fructose consumed by limiting or avoiding foods with excess fructose (foods that contain more than half of their natural sugar as fructose), foods with high fructose (more than 3 grams), and foods that are a significant source of fructans (chains of fructose). How long does this diet need to be followed? A low fructose diet should be followed until symptoms improve, typically 2-6 weeks.

  • Middle/High School
    CORN MIDDLE/HIGH SCHOOL Corn, called maize in some countries, is Zea mays, a member of the grass family Poaceae. It is a cereal grain which was first grown by people in ancient Central America. Corn is now the third most important cereal crop in the world. Corn is a leafy stalk whose kernels have seeds inside. It is an angiosperm, which means its seeds are enclosed inside a fruit or shell. Corn is used as a food staple by many people in Mexico, Central and South America, and parts of Africa. In Europe and the rest of North America, corn is grown mostly for use as animal feed. In recent years, corn has become an important part in a majority of American foods through the use of corn starch. Corn is the domesticated variant of teosinte. The two plants have dissimilar appearance; corn has a single tall stalk with multiple leaves and teosinte is a short, bushy plant. The difference between the two is largely controlled by differences in just two genes. In the temperate zones, corn must be planted during the spring season because it is cold-intolerant. Its root system is generally shallow, so the plant is dependent on soil moisture. Corn is widely cultivated throughout the world, and a greater weight is produced each year than any other grain. The United States produces 40% of the world’s harvest; other top producing countries include China, Brazil, Mexico, Indonesia, India, France, and Argentina. Maize, another name for corn, was planted by the Native Americans in hills, in a complex system known to some as the Three Sisters.
