Nutrient density of beverages in relation to climate impact

The food chain contributes to a substantial part of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and growing evidence points to the urgent need to reduce GHGs emissions worldwide.Among suggestions were proposals to alter food consumption patterns by replacing animal foods with more plant-based foods.However, the nutritional dimensions of changing consumption pat

Microcrystalline cellulose promotes superior direct compressed Boesenbergia rotunda (L.) Mansf. extract tablet properties to spray-dried rice starch and spray-dried lactose

AbstractThis work aimed to select tablet diluent of Boesenbergia rotunda (L.) Mansf.extract tablet.Three tablet diluents, including microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), spray-dried rice starch, and spray-dried lactose were used.MCC exhibited superior performance to the other diluents by providing the hardest tablet, the lowest friability, and the shor
