This fruit has high socioeconomic importance in the regions where it grows, being incorporated into exported animal feed and also into gastronomic preparations. Cereal bars are ready-to-eat highly consumed products with increased demand, commonly made with cereals and oilseeds such as licuri. In this sense, the in...
Fruit and vegetable consumption: Study involving Portuguese and French consumers
LE TURC, Nolwenn; Silva, Ana Isabel; Florença, Sofia De Guiné E; C. Goncalves, J.; Lemos, Edite Teixeira de; Lima, M. J. Reis; Guiné, RaquelThe regular consumption of vegetables and fruits has been indicated as part of a healthy diet. They are considered healthy foods because they are sources of vitamins, minerals, and fibre. Adequate intake of these foods can reduce the risk of certain chronic diseases, like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, and various types of cancer. The objective of the present study was to determine the consumption h...
The Relationship between Nutritional Status and Functional Capacity: A Contribu...
Caçador, Catarina; Lemos, Edite Teixeira de; Oliveira, Jorge; Pinheiro, João; Filipa; Ramos, FernandoDemographic aging of the population allied with the new family structures and societal dynamics is generating an increasing demand for institutions for older adults. Nutritional status is a key health determinant that impacts the quality of life among older adults. Hence, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the relationship between nutritional status and nutritional risk, functional capacity, and cogni...
Como prevenir a queda? Contribuição para a compreensão dos fatores de risco em ...
Lemos, Edite Teixeira de; Lemos, Luís Pedro; Pinheiro, João; Oliveira, Jorge; Caçador, Catarina; Melo, Ana Paula; Martins, Anabela CorreiaUm terço dos adultos que vivem na comunidade com 65 anos ou mais caem a cada ano. As quedas acidentais são responsáveis por fraturas, lesões cerebrais e podem levar à morte. São também causa de restrições na participação, o que significa perda de autonomia nas atividades de vida diária e necessidade de institucionalização precoce das pessoas mais velhas. A identificação de factores de risco para queda é fundame...
Fatty acis profile in Serra da Estrela cheese: an overview
Lima, M.J. Reis; Fontes, Luísa; Peres, António M.; Guiné, Raquel P.F.; Lemos, Edite Teixeira deMilk and dairy products are of major importance in the human diet, since they are an excellent source of well-balanced nutrients which are consumed in large amounts and are easy to manufacture. Most cheeses present in the market are made from cow's milk, with ewe’s and goat’s cheeses being considered delicacies derived from the unavailability of goat's and ewe’s milk in certain periods of the year, proleading t...
Fatty acids profile of Serra da Estrela PDO cheeses and respective atherogenic ...
Lima, M.J. Reis; Fontes, Luísa; Bahri, Hamdi; Veloso, Ana C.A.; Lemos, Edite Teixeira de; Peres, António M.This study aims to determine the physicochemical and fatty acids composition of Serra da Estrela cheese (SEC), as well as health-related lipid indices, like the atherogenic and thrombogenic indices, and to evaluate the influence of producer, geographical origin and production date. Design/methodology/approach – All 24 SEC produced between November 2017 and March 2018 were collected at selected certified produce...
Identifying the geographical origin of Serra da Estrela PDO cheeses using fatty...
Fontes, Luísa; Lima, M.J. Reis; Bahri, Hamdi; Morais, Jorge Sá; Veloso, Ana C.A.; Lemos, Edite Teixeira de; Peres, António M.Serra da Estrela is a traditional Portuguese cheese with a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) certification. This cheese is produced from raw ewe’s milk from “Churra Mondegueira” and “Bordaleira” Portuguese autochthonous breeds and coagulated using wild thistle flower (Cynara cardunculus L.), and its production is geographically limited. Serra da Estrela is the most known and popular Portuguese cheese and is...
Amino acids profile for assessing Serra da Estrela cheese producers
Santos, Andreia O.; Falcão, Soraia; Fontes, Luísa; Veloso, Ana C.A.; Lemos, Edite Teixeira de; Lima, M.J. Reis; Peres, António M.; Dias, L.G.This work has the purpose to evaluate if the Serra da Estrela cheeses colletcted from 6 producers have typical chemical characteristics, with controlled variability, considering that cheeses were produced during time periods, the raw milk comes from different animals, and that the cheese processing may slightly differ between cheesemaking producers.
