Diets high in gelatinized starch and high in gelatinized starch supplemented with salt-induced metabolic disorders and changes in gut microbiota have scarcely been studied. In this study, mice on wheat starch diets (WD) exhibited significantly higher body weight, white adipose tissue (WAT), and gut permeability compared to those on normal diet (ND). However, gelatinized wheat starch diet (GWD) and NaCl-supplemented gelatinized wheat starch diet (SGW) mice did not increase body and WAT weights or dyslipidemia, and maintained consistent colon pH at ND levels. WD mice showed higher levels of , , and and lower levels of compared to ND mice. However, GWD and SGW mice showed a significantly different gut microbial composition, such as a lower proportion of and , and higher proportion of and compared to WD mice. High starch diet-induced dysbiosis caused increase of lipid accumulation and inflammation-related proteins' expression, thereby leading to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. However, GWD and SGW showed lower levels than that, and it might be due to the difference in the gut microbial composition compared to WD. Taken together, diets high in gelatinized starch and high in gelatinized starch supplemented with salt induced mild metabolic disorders compared to native starch.

Functional foods are currently receiving increasing popularity in diet modification. Green bananas contain far more dietary fiber (DF) and resistant starch (RS) than mature bananas. The potential for integrating these vital components into food, such as bread, has expanded.

Whole grain flour is considered a part of a healthy diet, especially when produced with pigmented wheat (). However, the specific metabolic pathways and mechanisms by which these metabolites affect the end-use quality of pigmented wheat varieties still need to be better understood. This study examined the relationship between metabolite concentrations and the end-use quality of three wheat varieties: common wheat (CW, JM20), black wheat (BW, HJ1), and green wheat (GW, HZ148).

To reduce the adverse effects of bran on whole wheat flour products. In this study, seven reconstituted whole wheat flours were prepared and used to determine the effects of microwave and steam treatment on bran. We aimed to understand the effect of modification treatment on the properties of reconstituted whole wheat flour and dough.

This study investigated the contribution of pulse starches (PSs) to the slowly digestible starch (SDS) properties observed in pulses. Purified pulse starches from 17 commonly consumed pulses were examined, focusing on their digestion kinetics using a pancreatic alpha-amylase (PAA) and rat intestinal acetone powder (RIAP) mixture. Chickpea starch, exhibiting a slow digestibility profile, was incorporated as an ingredient to confer slow digestibility to refined wheat flour bread.

Background: Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) is one of the most important problems associated with the severe decrease of yield and quality under disaster weather of continuous rain in wheat harvesting stage. At present, the functions and mechanisms related to the involvement of post-transcriptional regulation has not been studied very clearly in PHS resistance.
Results: This study compared the differences of germinated seeds in miRNAome between the PHS-tolerant and PHS-susceptible white wheat varieties.
