Novel Processing approaches for the development of food products Low in fAt, Salt and sUgar (PLeASURe)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

More than 60% of all reported diseases in modern industrial countries are said to have their origin from malnutrition (low vitamin intake, high caloric food (fat and sugar)). As an important cause of this the high consumption of fat (saturated and trans-fatty acids, salt (sodium) and sugar (mono- and disaccharides) has been identified. With the change of society, the consumer’s pattern towards fo ...
