Abstract
Supercritical fluid extrusion (SCFX) processing was used to develop milk protein-based orally self-disintegrating puffs enriched with fruit and dairy by-products, designed specifically to cater to the needs of elderly population having swallowing issues and lactose intolerance. Lactose hydrolyzed skim milk powder (LHSMP) was also added in the formulation to mitigate lactose intolerance while LHSMP was also exploited as a precursor for the polymerization of galactose and lactose to generate galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) in the puffs. This study for the first time took advantage of the unique features of SCFX processing for in-process GOS formation and enrichment of puffs, achieving GOS contents up to 0.48 g/30 g serving of puffs, thereby making them nutritionally superior and functionally attractive snacks. The estimated nutritional profile revealed that SCFX puffs contained higher levels of protein (16.3 g/30 g), fiber (1.6 g/30 g), phenolics and other valuable nutrients compared to the starch-rich, disintegrating Market Baby puffs.

Abstract
Personalized three-dimensional (3D) printed foods rich in probiotics were investigated. Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (Lp), as a representative of probiotics, was used to investigate the 3D printing of probiotic-rich dysphagia foods. Here, whey protein isolate nanofibrils (WPNFs) were coated and anchored on bacterial surfaces via biointerfacial supramolecular self-assembly, providing protection against environmental stress and the 3D printing process. The optimized composite gels consisting of High acyl gellan gum (0.25 g), whey protein isolate (1.25 g), fructooligosaccharides (0.75 g), Lp-WPNFs-Glyceryl tributyrate emulsion (Φ = 40%, 3.75 mL) can realize 3D printing, and exhibit high resolution, and stable shape. The viable cell count is higher than 8.0 log CFU/g. They are particularly suitable for people with dysphagia and are classified as level 5-minced & moist in the international dysphagia diet standardization initiative framework. The results provide new insights into the development of WPNFs-coating on bacterial surfaces to deliver probiotics and 3D printed food rich in probiotics.

Improvement of 3D printing age-friendly brown rice food on rough texture, swallowability, and in vitro digestibility using fermentation properties of different probiotics. Food Chem 2024; 460:140701.

Abstract
Probiotics can promote the balance of the intestinal microbial community and enhance the biological activity of food. They are beneficial to the health of elderly people. Therefore, five different probiotics (4% of the total weight) were added to pasted brown rice to study the printability, swallowability, and digestibility of fermented inks (at 40 °C for 10 h). The results showed that probiotics reduced the apparent viscosity and resistance to deformation of brown rice inks. The inks with Lactobacillus bulgaricus (LB), Bifidobacterium longum (BL), and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (LP) had better printing properties and finer appearances. Probiotics significantly reduced the adhesiveness, gumminess, and hardness of inks but had little effect on cohesiveness. LB, Streptococcus thermophilus (ST), and LP were categorized as having class 4 consistency with easy-to-swallow characteristics. The growth and multiplication of probiotics detached the internal structure of brown rice inks and reduced the relative crystallinity. They also modulated the nutrient content and flavor components by producing short-chain fatty acids, and improved the digestion of starch.

Abstract
Nutritional management has emerged as an effective strategy to mitigate the risks of malnutrition and disease-related mortality among patients. The emergence of novel food types, particularly foods for special medical purposes (FSMPs), has garnered increasing attention from researchers and businesses. 3D printing (3DP) technology, alternatively known as food additive manufacturing, has gained popularity among novel food developers due to its distinct capabilities in tailoring nutrition, appearance, texture, and enhancing overall edible quality. This review examines current market trends, product forms, and unique characteristics of FSMPs, highlighting the progress made in applying 3DP to the development of functional foods and drugs. Despite its potential medical benefits, there are limited instances of direct utilization of 3DP in the production of such specialized food type. Currently, the FSMP market faces several challenges, including limited product diversity, inadequate formula design, and a lack of product appeal. 3DP offers significant advantages in catering to the unique needs of special patients, encompassing both physiological medical benefits and enhanced sensory as well as psychological eating experiences. It holds great promise in promoting precision medicine and personalized home-based FSMPs preparations. This review will delve into the development strategies and feasibility of 3DP in creating specialized medical food for patients with unique conditions and across different age groups. Additionally, it explores the potential challenges of applying 3DP to the FSMP sector, such as regulatory frameworks, patient acceptance, cost of 3D-printed FSMPs, and the improvement of 3DP.

Abstract
Using 3D printing technology, a gelatin-polyvinyl alcohol‑carbon dots (GPC) layer+corn starch-polyvinyl alcohol-cinnamon essential oil (CPC) layer active bilayer film with an external barrier function and an internal controlled-release effect was successfully produced for food preservation. The GPC film was provided with potent antioxidant and UV blocking properties by the banana peel carbon dots (CDs). The cinnamon essential oil (CEO) had the strongest interaction with the film matrix at 3% (w/w), causing the CPC film having the lowest surface wettability, good integrity, and lowest crystallinity. The CEO's stability and releasing effectiveness were greatly enhanced by the creation of a bilayer film. At 60% filling rate of the CPC layer, the bilayer film showed the highest CEO retention after drying and the best CEO release performance. Finally, the created active bilayer film was found to significantly improve the sensory quality stability of the spicy essential oil microcapsule powders. It also successfully extended the mangoes' shelf life by delaying browning and rot.

Abstract
The food industry is challenged to develop nutritious and palatable foods that satisfy older people's needs. So, this work aimed to study the incorporation of nanoemulsions enriched with vitamin D3 and omega-3 fatty acids into two desserts (yogurt and fruit puree), characterizing their nutritional profile, viscosity, and color properties and evaluating their in vitro bioaccessibility and sensory response. The results showed that adding nanoemulsion modified the nutrition profile of desserts due to increasing lipids and calories. The desserts' physical properties were also affected, with a decrease in viscosity and a lightening of color. Regarding digestion, the enriched desserts presented a low release of free fatty acids (14.8 and 11.4%, respectively). However, fruit puree showed the highest vitamin D3 and omega-3 fatty acid in vitro bioaccessibility (48.9 and 70.9%, respectively). In addition, older consumers found this dessert more acceptable than yogurt due to the adequate intensity of its sensory attributes (aroma, flavor, sweetness, and consistency). Therefore, the fruit puree can be enriched with nanoemulsions loaded with vitamin D3 and omega-3 fatty acids to improve the bioaccessibility of lipid bioactive compounds and sensory performance, offering a health-enhancing option for older consumers.

Abstract
The growth of the elderly population worldwide is posing significant challenges to human society. The progressive physical and physiological changes occur with aging, including decreased appetite, incomplete digestion, and reduced absorption of nutrients. A common feature of many elderly people's diets is a deficiency in proteins (especially easily digestible ones) and micronutrients (e.g., vitamins, zinc, iron, and calcium). One of the solutions to this problem is the incorporation of these components into suitably texture-modified foods. There is a dearth of products that meet the needs of the elderly with special medical/health conditions such as dysphagia, osteoporosis, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, as well as those who are in hospital and palliative care. Future research and development of foods for the elderly must address specific dietary needs of different subgroups of elderly people with underlying health conditions. The existence of different physical and physiological stages of the elderly means that their specific dietary requirements must be considered. This review summarizes current knowledge on nutritional requirements including those with underlying health problems and outlines the research and innovation pathways for developing new foods considering nutrition, texture, flavor, and other sensory aspects.

Abstract
Elderly people often experience difficulty in swallowing and have impaired regulation of the nervous system. Furthermore, their blood glucose level can rise easily after eating. Therefore, functional foods that are easy to swallow and can maintain blood glucose at a lower level have been an important research topic in recent years. In this study, 3D printing was combined with dry heating to modify the starch in white quinoa and brown rice to develop whole grain foods with Osmanthus flavor that meet the dietary habits of the elderly. The samples were tested for printability, swallowing performance, and in vitro digestion. The results showed that after dry heating, all samples had shear-thinning properties and could pass through the extrusion nozzle of the printer smoothly. Both white quinoa and brown rice showed improved printability and self-support compared to the control. B45 (white quinoa, dry heating for 45 min) and C45 (brown rice, dry heating for 45 min) had significant elasticity and greater internal interaction strength during swallowing to resist disintegration of food particles during chewing. B45, C30, and C45, conformed to class 4 consistency and were characterized by easy swallowing of the diet. Further, dry heating resulted in greater resistance to enzymatic degradation of white quinoa and brown rice starch, with overall in vitro digestibility lower than the control.

Abstract
Super reconstructed foods (SRFs) have characteristics beyond those of real system in terms of nutrition, texture, appearance, and other properties. As 3D/4D food printing technology continues to be improved in recent years, this layered manufacturing/additive manufacturing preparation technology based on food reconstruction has made it possible to continuously develop large-scale manufacture of SRFs. Compared with the traditional reconstructed foods, SRFs prepared using 3D/4D printing technologies are discussed comprehensively in this review. To meet the requirements of customers in terms of nutrition or other characteristics, multi-processing technologies are being combined with 3D/4D printing. Aspects of printing inks, product quality parameters, and recent progress in SRFs based on 3D/4D printing are assessed systematically and discussed critically. The potential for 3D/4D printed SRFs and the need for further research and developments in this area are presented and discussed critically. In addition to the natural materials which were initially suitable for 3D/4D printing, other derivative components have already been applied, which include hydrogels, polysaccharide-based materials, protein-based materials, and smart materials with distinctive characteristics. SRFs based on 3D/4D printing can retain the characteristics of deconstruction and reconstruction while also exhibiting quality parameters beyond those of the original material systems, such as variable rheological properties, on-demand texture, essential printability, improved microstructure, improved nutrition, and more appealing appearance. SRFs with 3D/4D printing are already widely used in foods such as simulated foods, staple foods, fermented foods, foods for people with special dietary needs, and foods made from food processingbyproducts.

Abstract
Dysphagia, or swallowing difficulty, is a common morbidity affecting 10% to 33% of the elderly population. Individuals with dysphagia can experience appetite, reduction, weight loss, and malnutrition as well as even aspiration, dehydration, and long-term healthcare issues. However, current therapies to treat dysphagia can routinely cause discomfort and pain to patients. To prevent these risks, a non-traumatic and effective treatment of diet modification for safe chewing and swallowing is urgently needed for the elderly. This review mainly summarizes the chewing and swallowing changes in the elderly, as well as important risk factors and potential consequences of dysphagia. In addition, three texture-modified food processing strategies to prepare special foods for the aged, as well as the current statuses and future trends of such foods, are discussed. Nonthermal food technologies, gelation, and 3D printing techniques have been developed to prepare soft, moist, and palatable texture-modified foods for chewing and swallowing safety in elderly individuals. In addition, flavor enhancement and nutrition enrichment are also considered to compensate for the loss of sensory experience and nutrients. Given the trend of population aging, multidisciplinary cooperation for dysphagia management should be a top priority.

Abstract
The feasibility study of making 3D printed dysphagia diet was undertaken. A mixture of corn flour and buckwheat flour was used as the model cereal and chickpea protein isolate (CPI) was used as the model protein. Printing gels (inks) of the mixed cereal (control) and CPI-cereal mixture were produced by heating the formulations at 95 °C for 30 min and then cooling them to room temperature. The results showed that all the ink formulations containing CPI had higher apparent viscosity, preferable shear thinning behavior and shape supporting characteristics than that of the control. The cohesiveness and shape supporting ability of 10%CPI-cereal and 20%CPI-cereal formulations were poor and could not produce stable printing shape. The 30%CPI-cereal and 40%CPI-cereal formulations had suitable apparent viscosity, shear thinning behavior, storage modulus, yield stress and printing accuracy and the 3D printed products were stable. The control ink and 10%CPI-cereal ink had low cohesion and also could not pass the spoon tilt test. The 50%CPI-cereal formulation had high hardness and also could not pass the fork pressing test. The 30 % to 40 % CPI-cereal formulations were found to be suitable as dysphagia products as they could be classified as level 5 dysphagia diet.

Abstract
Plant-based foods are being considered seriously to replace traditional animal-origin foods for various reasons. It is well known that animals release large amounts of greenhouse gases into the environment during feeding, and eating animal-origin foods may also cause some health problems. Moreover, animal resources will likely be in short supply as the world population grows. It is highly likely that serious health problems ascribed to insufficient protein intake in some areas of the world will occur. Studies have shown that environmentally friendly, abundant, and customizable plant-based foods can be an effective alternative to animal-based foods. However, currently, available plant-based foods lack nutrients unique to animal-based foods. Innovative processing technologies are needed to improve the nutritional value and functionality of plant-based foods and make them acceptable to a wider range of consumers. Therefore, protein extraction technologies (e.g., high-pressure extraction, ultrasound extraction, enzyme extraction, etc.), structure improvement and assembly technologies (3D printing, micro-encapsulation, etc.), and technologies to improve digestibility and utilization of bioactive substances (microbial fermentation, physical, etc.) in the field of plant-based foods processing are reviewed. The challenges of plant-based food processing technologies are summarized. The advanced technologies aim to help the food industry solve production problems using efficient, environmentally friendly, and economical processing technologies and to guide the development of plant-based foods in the future.

Abstract
People are exploring the potential application of 3D printing in food, biomedicine and environment, but it is urgent to find suitable bio-ink. Bio-ink compounded with starch and hydrocolloid can not only improve the rheology, structure and printability of starch-based edible bio-ink, but also endow it with other functional characteristics, so that it can be applied to food, biomedicine and even the environment, and meet the strategic needs of national health, green and sustainable development. In this paper, hydrocolloids are reviewed as potential means to regulate the physicochemical properties of starch, which endows it with good printability and presents excellent printing products. The specific applications of the bio-ink in the fields of food, biomedicine and environment in hypoglycemic, lipid-lowering, swallowable food, delivery, intelligent materials, and bio-sensor are also discussed. Then, the challenges and future development trends of realizing large-scale application are prospected. Proper physicochemical properties of starch-hydrocolloid are positively correlated with printability. The presentation of excellent printability has realized the application in different fields, not only satisfies most people, but also create benefits for some specific people. This review is expected to provide some theoretical guidance for the further development of 3D printing technology and its large-scale application.

Abstract
The contradiction between the growing demand from consumers for "nutrition & personalized" food and traditional industrialized food production has consistently been a problem in the elderly diet that researchers face and discuss. Three-dimensional (3D) food printing could potentially offer a solution to this problem. This article reviews the recent research on 3D food printing, mainly including the use of different sources of protein to improve the performance of food ink printing, high internal phase emulsion or oleogels as a fat replacement and nutrition delivery system, and functional active ingredients and the nutrition delivery system. In our opinion, 3D food printing is crucial for improving the appetite and dietary intake of the elderly. The critical obstacles of 3D-printed food for the elderly regarding energy supplements, nutrition balance, and even the customization of the recipe in a meal are discussed in this paper. By combining big data and artificial intelligence technology with 3D food printing, comprehensive, personalized, and customized geriatric foods, according to the individual traits of each elderly consumer, will be realized via food raw materials-appearance-processing methods. This article provides a theoretical basis and development direction for future 3D food printing for the elderly.
