Functional Foods for Health Promotion: Implications for Reducing Obesity
Release/Announcement 2005
Published as a commentary in Nutrition Today, this article provides highlights from the special conference on Functional Foods and an increased understanding of onset obesity and provided further knowledge about the physiological response to food and food components.
Kinetic and Mechanistic Data for a Human Physiologically Bases Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) Model for Acrylamide
Journal Article 2005
Despite gaps and limitations to the database, model parameters have been estimated to provide a relatively consistent description of the kinetics of acrylamide and glycidamide using a single set of values (with minor adjustments in some cases).
Use of food safety objectives as a tool for reducing foodborne listeriosis
Journal Article 2005
Article in Food Control on food safety objectives as a link to public health objectives and performance objectives.
Effects of Dietary Macronutrient Intake on Insulin Sensitivity and Secretion and Glucose and Lipid Metabolism in Healthy, Obese Adolescents
Journal Article 2005
This article investigates the adaptability of insulin secretion and sensitivity to a broad range of carbohydrate and fat intakes in healthy obese adolescents.
Functional Foods for Health Promotion: Implications for Reducing Obesity
Release/Announcement 2005
Published as a commentary in Nutrition Today (2004;40:165–168), this article provides highlights from the special conference on functional foods and an increased understanding of onset obesity and provided further knowledge about the physiological response to food and food components.
Effect of Chronic Caffeine Intake on Choice Reaction Time, Mood, and Visual Vigilance
Journal Article 2005
This study, published in Psychology and Behavior (2005;85:629–634), discusses the lack of research and expands on current research to examine chronic caffeine intake and how it affects our reaction time, mood, and visual vigilance.
Fluid-Electrolyte and Renal Indices of Hydration During Eleven Days of Controlled Caffeine Consumption
Journal Article 2005
After identifying critical gaps in caffeine research, this study examined the effects of tolerance and withdrawal from caffeine on hydration status in subjects who are regular users of caffeine. The findings were published in the International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism (2005;15:252–265).
Kinetic and Mechanistic Data for a Human Physiologically Bases Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) Model for Acrylamide
Journal Article 2005
Despite gaps and limitations to the database, model parameters have been estimated to provide a relatively consistent description of the kinetics of acrylamide and glycidamide using a single set of values (with minor adjustments in some cases). This review, published in Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology (2005;561:117–125), discusses the PBPK model for acrylamide.
Human Exposure and Internal Dose Assessments of Acrylamide in Food
Journal Article 2005
This review, published in Food and Chemical Toxicology (2005;43:365–410), provides a framework contributing to the risk assessment of acrylamide in food. It is based on the outcome of the ILSI Europe FOSIE process, a risk assessment framework for chemicals in foods and adds to the overall framework by focusing especially on exposure assessment and internal dose assessment of acrylamide in food.
Functional Foods in Asia – Current Status and Issues
Monograph 2004
The monograph provides a summary of the Asian perspective on functional foods based on the status in 11 countries, the regulatory systems implemented in certain Asian countries, the market, and consumer perceptions on functional foods.
