Symptoms
• Summary

How Important is Nutrition?
• Essential nutrients: to maintain body functions
• Usually nutrition reminds us of what we should
avoid or restrict (Saturated fat, cholesterol,
sodium etc)
• The other side of the nutrition coin is what we
should eat, which in today’s context is probably
more important

Functional Foods
• These are foods that may have the potential to prevent
disease or be used as part of disease treatment or
management
• These are foods which in general promote better health
(Foods which have good amount of protein and good
quality protein, foods that have calcium, foods that have
good amount of fiber etc)
• “Foods that by virtue of physiologically active food
components, provide health benefits beyond basic
nutrition”
International Food Information Council

Importance of Functional Foods
• Food which is traditionally viewed as
nourishment needed for growth, strength
and energy is now considered to have
beneficial effects in helping reduce risk of
chronic diseases such as
– Cardiovascular disease
– Cancer
– Obesity
– Diabetes

Protein
• Quantity
– 1gram per kg body weight
• Quality
– Essential amino acid content and their ratio
– Digestibility
– Relevance to Human Requirements

Protein Functions
• Body building and repair
• Enzyme and hormones
• Immunity
• Cell functions
• Nails and hair etc

Protein Digestibility-Corrected
Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS)
• Amino acid profile testing done at designated
labs
• Digestibility testing by the rat nitrogen
balance study
• PDCAAS value is determined according to
the FAO/WHO published method
Protein Quality Evaluation Report published as FAO
Food and Nutrition Paper 51, Rome, 1991

PDCAAS Determination
• Protein value
• Amino Acid content
• True Digestibility – determined by rat nitrogen balance study
• Calculations
– AA content is expressed as mg/g protein
– Calculate the Amino Acid Score*
– Calculate PDCAAS**
• PDCAAS scores of greater than 1 are truncated to 1
*Amino Acid Score (AAS) = amino acid content of test protein/Ref AA pattern
for 2-5 year old child
**PDCAAS = AAS x True Digestibility

Bioactive Peptides
• Bioactive peptides may be present in
independent entities or encrypted in the native
protein
• It is known that during digestion in the GI tract or
during Food Processing, these peptides are
released from the parent protein and these act as
regulatory compounds with hormone like
activities
• Food derived bio-active peptides commonly
contain 2 to 9 amino acids. However, this range
may extend to 20 or more amino acids.
• Lunacin, a food derived peptide with anticancer
bioactivity contains 43 amino acids

Soy Protein
• Complete protein with all the essential
amino acids is therefore essential
• Most animal proteins are closer to
complete proteins
• Do we take our daily requirement of
complete proteins? Even if we are non-
vegetarians?

Diabetes Figures
• Diabetes
• India - No.1 Rank
• Growth -79.4 million 2030 from 31.7
million in 2000.
– Currently estimated to be about 50 million

Glycemic Index (GI)
• High GI foods
– Food cravings
– Disordered eating patterns
– Repeated surges and falls in blood-glucose
("sugar spikes")
• Low GI foods
– Reduced appetite
– Lower energy intake
– Aids in weight loss and weight management

How does protein help reduce appetite?
• Protein stimulates “Satiety Hormones”
• Cholescystokinin
– The ingestion of protein is known to stimulate the gut
hormone, cholecystokinin (CCK) in animals
– Release of CCK suppresses food intake by inducing a
feeling of satiety in animals
– The major protein component of soy protein (-conglycinin)
stimulates CCK release and subsequently suppresses food
intake
• Reduced glycemic index
– Low-glycemic index foods provide greater satiety and
reduced hunger compared to high-glycemic index foods
– Soy protein is a low glycemic index food

Heart Problems Figures
• Heart diseases
• In 2002, India > China >
Russian federation.
• By 2020, 60% of the world’s
heart patients will be Indians

The FDA Claim
The US Food & Drug Administration has
(October 26th 1999) endorsed a health claim
on relationship between consumption of soy
protein.
The health claim says that “25 grams of soy
protein a day as part of a diet low in
saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce
the risk of heart disease”.

American Heart Association
American Heart Association (AHA) experts announced their
official recommendations for consumers to eat more soya
protein, in order to lower their cholesterol and the risk of
heart disease.
“There is increasing evidence that consuming soya protein
may help lower blood cholesterol levels in some people
with elevated cholesterol levels and may provide other
cardiovascular benefits”. Circulation: Journal of American
Heart Association, November 14, 2000

Soy Protein: CHD Risk
 Soy protein/other vegetable protein
decrease cholesterol
 Soy protein binds bile acids
 7 S globulin fractions may affect liver LDL
receptors

Soy Protein and Heart Health
• For every 1% decrease in serum cholesterol there
is a 2-3% reduction in the rate of CHD (AHA*).
• The totality of evidence on “Soy Protein &
Cholesterol Lowering” suggests,
– As part of a healthy diet, a 4 - 6% reduction in serum
cholesterol with soy protein - as observed in this meta-
analyses - can make a significant & meaningful
contribution to reducing the risk of Coronary Heart
Disease.
