Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In Sweden, as most parts of the world, the proportion of elderly is increasing. Thenumber of the elderly will shortly exceed the number of younger people. Between2010 and 2030, the number of Europeans aged over 65 will rise by nearly 40%.According to the UN, the increase in life expectancy is mainly due toimprovements in nutrition and hygiene. The growing number of older peopleposes major challenges, but also opportunities for society, business andentrepreneurship.Health issues, primarily food, and quality of life are in focus and strongly relatedto autonomy. It should be possible to live an active and independent life, andpossible to make independent choices, regardless of age, disease and disability.This adds to Quality of Life! To achieve this we created a project in collaborationbetween partners from academia, research institutes, business, industry andsociety. The idea was in a first step to identify target groups along with their needsand desires. Then to design foods and meals adapted to the elderly’s needs andpreferences. Further to develop packaging of the meals that can be used forinformation as well as in the distribution chain. The project invented value chainsfor different types of ordering and distribution of the foods and meals as well as toinclude waste management. The outcome of the project are new knowledge aswell as food products available on the market and other products soon ready to beput on the market.

Handbook on Sensory Analysis
- 2017
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The original of this handbook is the Swedish Handbok i Sensorisk Analys, which wasan updated edition of an older sensory analysis handbook written by Birgit Lundgrenback in 1981. The handbook was revised in 2013 by Berit Albinsson, Karin Wendinand Annika Åström. Both these handbooks were written at SIK – The Swedish Instituteof Food and Bioscience, which is now part of RISE – Research Institutes of Sweden.The revised edition of the handbook has proved popular in both industry and in theteaching world. At university level, it has been used by students as a complement tothe academic literature in sensory science programmes. There has been a growing demandamong international students at Swedish universities for the handbook to betranslated. In 2016, Kristianstad University entered into an agreement with the researchbody RISE to translate the handbook into English. The translation was madeby Patrick O’Malley.The handbook was translated and printed with permission from the co-authors.

State Of The Art report : insects as food and feed
- 2017
-
Ingår i: Annals of Experimental Biology. - 2348-1935. ; 5:2, s. 1-9
-
Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- FAO has considered insects as food since 2003 [1] and is promoting consumption of insects (entomophagy) in the Western world because of the possibilities for sustainable production it offers. Insects as food are considered to leave smaller ecological footprints than conventional livestock (beef, pigs, and poultry) regarding feed, land and water needs, as well as greenhouse gas and ammonia emissions [2-7]. As an example regarding water, taken from a recent TV documentary, if a family of four people got their protein need from insects one day a week instead of from conventional livestock, over a year they would save the planet about a million Liters of water [8]. This is in agreement with figures above.

Äta insekter : finns det några hälsorisker?
- 2019
-
Ingår i: Nutritionsfakta. ; december
-
Tidskriftsartikel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- En tidigare publicerad artikel i Nutritionsfakta har visat på hälso- och hållbarhetsfördelar med att äta insekter. Finns det då några hälsorisker med att äta insekter? När det gäller kemiska risker är dessa små, förutsatt att producenten har kontroll på fodrets tungmetallinnehåll. Bakterier och andra mikroorganismer behöver kontrolleras noga, men inga tydliga risker finns här heller. Personer med skaldjursallergier bör dock vara försiktiga med insekter. Generellt motsvarar riskerna de som gäller för andra animaliska livsmedel, och samma typ av kontrollprogram bör finnas. Dock behövs mer forskning inom området. Kött från nöt, svin och fjäderfä har studerats under lång tid; det är dags att låta forskningen kring insekter som mat börja ta igen det försprånget.

Development of Fingerfood recipes for meals for home usage among older people with eating disabilities
- 2021
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Background: In the context of demographic changes and age-related diseases, there is a need to focus on the health of older people. Eating disabilities, such as difficulties to use cutlery, caused by various diseases (Parkinson's disease, consequences of a stroke) are becoming more frequent and solutions must be put in place. Objective: The purpose of this study is to create recipes of Fingerfoods for older adults over 65 years old with eating disabilities. These recipes should be prepared at home and rich in protein and energy. Design: A creative design was used to create products, and several variations were created from a basic recipe. The differences between the variations of a recipe are the ingredients that can be substituted or changed in quantity. Materials and Methods: Concerning the physical analysis, texture measurements, viscosity, and colorimetry were performed. The sensory evaluation was a hedonic test to measure the appreciation of the panel according to several criteria: appearance, smell, taste, texture, and overall appreciation. Results: The samples, according to the type of product, were measured for their hardness, their adhesiveness, their viscosity, and their colour. Results also show the appreciation of each sample, the comparisons of the appreciations, the ideas for improvement of the participants, and correlations between different data sets. Discussion: Results have been analysed and used to select the suitable recipes at each phase of the study. The milkshake was preferred when vanilla whey protein was added. The cheese balls were preferred with more chicken and less cheese. Soy flour was appreciated equally or more than wheat flour in the fish cakes and the salty muffins while chickpea flour was the least liked. In the set of recipes proposed for sensory evaluation, the most protein-rich ones were the most appreciated. Conclusion: In the end, four recipes have been selected based on the physical analysis, the sensory evaluation, and the nutritional content. The expected amount of protein was achieved for all products

Fingerfoods, rediscover the pleasure of eating : Simple recipes for meals and snacks
- 2021
-
Annan publikation (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Are you ready to eat with your fingers? While norms and table manners require the use of cutlery for eating, a part of the consumer population is excluded from this system. With the ageing of the population, the older generation is becoming an increasingly important part of the world's population. It is time to feed them properly. While people over 65 years old are mostly able to use cutlery, not all of them are. Indeed, some people have physical difficulties in handling knives, forks, spoons, and glasses. These problems are mainly motor related and result from a lack of muscle control. The look of others can be difficult for those who do not follow the norm and are forced to eat without cutlery. This leads to social withdrawal and discomfort for many of the people concerned. Fortunately, mentalities can change and it is the role of food professionals to participate in this change. Eating with the fingers can be accepted if the food is easy to handle and not messy. These are the challenges and the ambition of this project. It is not up to the people to adapt but to the food, by being adequate in terms of handling but also in terms of nutritional intake, which must be rich in proteins for this population.

Les fingerfoods, retrouver le plaisir de manger : Des recettes simples pour les repas et pour les encas
- 2021
-
Annan publikation (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Êtes-vous prêts à manger avec les mains ? Alors que les normes et les manières à table imposent l’utilisation des couverts pour manger, une partie des consommateurs est exclue de ce système. Avec le vieillissement de la population, les personnes âgées occupent une part de plus en plus importante dans le monde. Il est temps de les nourrir de façon adaptée. Si la génération des plus de 65 ans arrive majoritairement à utiliser des couverts, ce n’est pas le cas de toutes les personnes appartenant à cette catégorie. En effet, certains font face à des difficultés physiques les empêchant de manipuler couteaux, fourchettes, cuillères, et verres. Ces problèmes sont principalement moteurs et correspondent à un manque de contrôle de ses muscles. Le regard des autres peut être lourd pour ceux qui ne suivent pas la norme et sont obligés de manger sans couverts. Cela entraîne un retrait social et un mal-être pour une grande partie des personnes concernées. Heureusement, les mentalités peuvent évoluer et il est du rôle des professionnels de l’alimentation de participer à ce changement. Manger avec les mains peut être accepté si la nourriture est facile à prendre en main et non salissante. C’est ici que reposent les enjeux et l’ambition de ce projet. Ce n’est pas aux personnes de s’adapter mais aux aliments, en étant adéquat au niveau de la prise en main mais aussi au niveau de l’apport nutritionnel qui doit être riche en protéines pour cette population.

Impact of sour and carbonated foods and drinks on subsequent intake
- 2021
-
Ingår i: 6th international conference on food oral processing. - Valencia. - 9788409317349 ; , s. 100-100

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The oral processing of food is important for eating and digestion in order to gain energy and nutrients. Due to disease, accident, or aging individuals may experience difficulties in this process. These difficulties often lead to dysphagia which is strongly associated with malnutrition. Thus, it is of importance to find solutions and strategies that can facilitate intake of food. It is well known that sour and/or carbonated foods and drinks increase saliva secretion and trigger the swallowing reflex. However, knowledge of how subsequent food intake is impacted is low. The aim of this study is to clarify whether sour and/or carbonated foods and drinks have a subsequent impact on swallowing function. Twelve healthy participants evaluated eleven different foods and drinks due to their ability to increase saliva production and make swallowing of a subsequent food easier. As expected, results showed that sourness and carbonation had a positive impact on saliva secretion and swallowing. No correlation was found between pH / sourness and ease of swallowing these foods. It could be concluded that some sour foods, in this study exemplified by cherry tomatoes, natural yoghurt, and in particular citrus juice made it easier to swallow a neutral cracker after ingestion of these sour products. The results may be used to increase food intake among dysphagia patients.
