Vidhyalakshmi R, Meera MS. Role of millets in pre-diabetes and diabetes: effect of processing and product formulation. JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY 2024; 61:1848-1861. [PMID: 39285993 PMCID: PMC11401821 DOI: 10.1007/s13197-024-05952-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 09/19/2024]
Abstract
The incidence of pre-diabetes and diabetes has been increasing recently worldwide and considered as a major growing non-communicable disease. Millets are eco-friendly crops which could sustain extensive climatic conditions. The productivity of millets had increased in recent years to meet the nutritional needs of the increasing global population. The factors which affect the starch digestibility pattern in millets are protein, fat, resistant starch, dietary fibre, and anti-nutrients. However, the interplay of these components also affects the starch digestibility pattern in millets during various processing methods such as thermal, non-thermal, chemical, and their combination. The incorporation of native and processed millet in food products varies the in-vitro and in-vivo glycaemic index. The current study further discusses the potential applications of millet in food formulations for pre-diabetic and diabetic population. Hence the appropriately processed millets could be a suggested as a suitable dietary option for pre-diabetic and diabetic population.

Abstract
Poor dispersion stability of nutritious rice bran milk limits its production. In this study, the dispersion stability of rice bran milk after heating at 95 °C for 0-5 min was investigated. Visual observation revealed improved dispersion stability and changes in settling behavior with heat durations. After heating for 5 min, the serum turbidity increased from 1.86 to 2.95. The centrifugal sedimentation rate unexpectedly rose from 9.25% to 29.18%, indicating an increase in volumetric particle concentration. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy revealed that heating induced starch gelatinization and protein denaturation in rice bran milk, leading to increased volumetric particle concentration. Rice bran protein aggregates after heating were developed and embedded in the gel-like network composed of swollen starch granules. These results suggested that rice bran milk, due to thermal-induced alteration in biomacromolecules, may behave progressively from free settling to hindered settling to compression settling, resulting in improved dispersion stability.

The importance of starch chain-length distribution for in vitro digestion of ungelatinized and retrograded foxtail millet starch. Food Res Int 2024; 189:114563. [PMID: 38876595 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114563] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2023] [Revised: 05/08/2024] [Accepted: 05/26/2024] [Indexed: 06/16/2024]
Abstract
The digestibility of ungelatinized, short-term retrograded and long-term retrograded starch from foxtail millet was investigated and correlated with starch chain length distributions (CLDs). Some variations in starch CLDs of different varieties were obtained. Huangjingu and Zhonggu 9 had higher average chain lengths of debranched starch and lower average chain length ratios of amylopectin and amylose than Dajinmiao and Jigu 168. Compared to ungelatinized starch, retrogradation significantly increased the estimated glycemic index (eGI), whereas significantly decreased the resistant starch (RS). In contrast, long-term retrograded starches have lower eGI (93.33-97.37) and higher RS (8.04-14.55%) than short-term retrograded starch. PCA and correlation analysis showed that amylopectin with higher amounts of long chains and longer long chains contributed to reduced digestibility in ungelatinized starch. Both amylose and amylopectin CLDs were important for the digestibility of retrograded starch. This study helps a better understanding of the interaction of starch CLDs and digestibility during retrogradation.

Abstract
This study evaluated the influence of starch-protein interactions on the chemical properties and digestibility of a 3D-printed gel based on salmon by-product protein. Changes in the starch-protein interactions of the stable cornstarch (CS, 15%) and salmon protein isolate (SPI, 4%-12%) printable gels during the in vitro gastrointestinal digestion process were studied by principal component analysis. Protein-rich printed gels increased resistant starch content by 18.05%. Changes in chemical properties and the starch-protein concentration of the gels during the digestion process were highly correlated. The CS-SPI gels in the gastric and intestinal phases exhibited lower α-helix/β-sheet ratio and fluorescence intensity values, whereas surface hydrophobicity increased. This resulted in more ordered structures with a high level of molecular interaction that inhibited enzymatic hydrolysis. This study provides crucial information about the transformations of starch-protein interactions during the digestibility of 3D-printed food matrices as an alternative source of nutrients with a high nutritional quality.

Abstract
In the past decade, the demand and interest of consumers have expanded for using plant-based novel starch sources in different food and non-food processing. Therefore, millet-based value-added functional foods are acquired spare attention due to their excellent nutritional, medicinal, and therapeutic properties. Millet is mainly composed of starch (amylose and amylopectin), which is primary component of the millet grain and defines the quality of millet-based food products. Millet contains approximately 70 % starch of the total grain, which can be used as a, ingredient, thickening agent, binding agent, and stabilizer commercially due to its functional attributes. The physical, chemical, and enzymatic methods are used to extract starch from millet and other cereals. Numerous ways, such as non-thermal physical processes, including ultrasonication, HPP (High pressure processing) high-pressure, PEF (Pulsed electric field), and irradiation are used for modification of millet starch and improve functional properties compared to native starch. In the present review, different databases such as Scopus, Google Scholar, Research Gate, Science Direct, Web of Science, and PubMed were used to collect research articles, review articles, book chapters, reports, etc., for detailed study about millet starch, their extraction (wet milling process) and modification methods such as physical, chemical, biological. The impact of different modification approaches on the techno-functional properties of millet starch and their applications in different sectors have also been reviewed. The data and information created and aggregated in this study will give users the necessary knowledge to further utilize millet starch for value addition and new product development.

Abstract
Starch is an important energy source for humans. Starch escaping digestion in the small intestine will transit to the colon to be fermented by gut microbes. Many gut microbes express α-amylases that can degrade soluble starch, but only a few are able to degrade intrinsic resistant starch (RS), which is insoluble and highly resistant to digestion (≥80% RS). We studied the in vitro fermentability of eight retrograded starches (RS-3 preparations) differing in rapidly digestible starch content (≥70%, 35-50%, ≤15%) by a pooled adult faecal inoculum and found that fermentability depends on the digestible starch fraction. Digestible starch was readily fermented yielding acetate and lactate, whereas resistant starch was fermented much slower generating acetate and butyrate. Primarily Bifidobacterium increased in relative abundance upon digestible starch fermentation, whereas resistant starch fermentation also increased relative abundance of Ruminococcus and Lachnospiraceae. The presence of small fractions of total digestible starch (±25%) within RS-3 preparations influenced the fermentation rate and microbiota composition, after which the resistant starch fraction was hardly fermented. By short-chain fatty acid quantification, we observed that six individual faecal inocula obtained from infants and adults were able to ferment digestible starch, whereas only one adult faecal inoculum was fermenting intrinsic RS-3. This suggests that, in contrast to digestible starch, intrinsic RS-3 is only fermentable when specific microbes are present. Our data illustrates that awareness is required for the presence of digestible starch during in vitro fermentation of resistant starch, since such digestible fraction might influence and overrule the evalution of the prebiotic potential of resistant starches.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Foxtail millet (Setaria italica) is a whole millet grain that has been considered for improving the disorder of glucose and lipid metabolism. The purpose of the work is to explore the extraction and enrichment of polyphenols from foxtail millets which can regulate the disorder of glucose and lipid metabolism by increasing endogenous GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1). RESULTS The optimum ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) of foxtail millet polyphenols (FMPs) was as follows: 70 °C and 400 W and 70% ethanol concentration, further purification using macroporous resin. In vitro, the FMP eluent of 60% ethanol (FMP-60) has the best effect in promoting GLP-1 secretion from L cells among the different active components of FMP. Millet polyphenols (MPs) were obtained from finishing foxtail millet with the bran removed by the same extraction and purification method. Compared with MP-60, FMP-60 mainly included eight active phenolic constituents and contained more ferulic acid, p-coumaric acid, 2-hydroxycinnamic acid, and coniferaldehyde. After gavage treatment of diet-induced obese (DIO) mice with FMP-60, FMP-60 promoted endogenous GLP-1 secretion in mice and ameliorated disorders of glucolipid metabolism in DIO mice. CONCLUSION FMP-60 could improve glucose homeostasis and ameliorates metabolic disease by promoting the endogenous GLP-1 level and preventing weight gain in DIO mice. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) has become a major public health concern worldwide. Slowly digested or indigestible carbohydrates such as resistant starch (RS) are associated with a low glycemic index (GI) and the decreased risk of developing T2D. Recently, starch inclusion complexes (ICs) have raised attention due to their thermally stable structure and high RS content. In this study, starch-ascorbyl palmitate (AP) ICs were produced using two different methods with hydrothermal treatments performed, and their in vitro digestion kinetics and in vivo glycemic response in C57BL/6J mice were investigated to determine their potential as a new type of RS, i.e., RS5. After treatments of annealing followed by acid hydrolysis (ANN-ACH), IC samples produced by both methods retained V-type crystalline structure. Either in their raw or treated conditions, V6h-AP ICs prepared using the "empty" V-type method exhibited a more favorable hydrolysis pattern as compared to its counterpart produced by the DMSO method in terms of a lower hydrolysis rate and equilibrium concentration (C∞) (p < 0.05). From the in vitro results, the ANN-ACH treated V6h-AP IC exhibited an estimated GI (eGI) value of 54.83, falling within the range of low GI foods and was the lowest among all tested samples (p < 0.05). Consistent with the in vitro digestion kinetics, the in vivo results showed that mice fed with ANN-ACH V6h-AP IC exhibited a modest glycemic response as evidenced by the lowest increase in postprandial blood glucose and AUC blood glucose (p < 0.05). In addition, the in vivo GI of the ANN-ACH V6h-AP IC (39.53) was the lowest among all the sample treatments and was even lower than that of the RS2 comparison (56, p < 0.05), indicating its more pronounced effect in modulating the postprandial glycemic response in mice and great potential as a new RS5.

Abstract
Aroma components in foxtail millet are one of the key factors in origin traceability and quality control, and they are associated with consumer acceptance and the corresponding processing suitability. However, the volatile differences based on the foxtail millet varieties have not been studied further. The present study was undertaken to develop the characteristic volatile fingerprint and analyze the differences in volatile compounds of 20 foxtail millet varieties by electronic nose (E-Nose), headspace-gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (HS-GC-IMS), and headspace solid-phase microextraction/gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME/GC-MS). A total of 43 volatile compounds were tentatively identified in foxtail millet samples, 34 and 18 by GC-IMS and GC-MS, respectively. Aldehydes, alcohols, and ketones were the major volatile compounds, and the hexanal content was the highest. The characteristic volatile fingerprint of foxtail millet was successfully constructed. A total of 39 common volatile compounds were found in all varieties. The content of hexanal, heptanal, 1-pentanol, acetophenone, 2-heptanone, and nonanal were explored to explain the aroma characteristics among the different varieties, and different varieties can be separated based on these components. The results demonstrate that the combination of E-Nose, GC-IMS, and GC-MS can be a fast and accurate method to identify the general aroma peculiarities of different foxtail millet varieties.

Abstract
Proso millet has been proposed as an effective anti-diabetic food thanks to the combined action of polyphenols and starch. This study aimed to characterize the chemical composition of twenty-five accessions, in order to enhance this cereal as an alternative to available starch for food applications or to propose new food ingredients with health benefits. Proso millet contained a high percentage of starch, reaching values of 58.51%. The amylose content showed high variability, with values ranging from 1.36 to 42.70%, and significantly higher values were recorded for the white accessions than for the colored ones. High-resistant starch content (13.41-26.07%) was also found. The HPLC-MS analysis showed the same phenolic pattern in all the samples. Cinnamic acids are the most abundant compounds and significant differences in their total content were found (0.69 to 1.35 mg/g DW), while flavonoids were only detected in trace amounts. Statistical results showed significantly higher antiradical activity in the colored accessions than in the white ones.

Abstract
Foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.) is a critical grain with high nutritional value and the potential for increased production in arid and semiarid regions. The foxtail millet value chain can be upgraded only by ensuring its comprehensive quality. Thus, samples were collected from different production areas in Shanxi province, China, and compared in terms of quality traits. We established a quality evaluation system utilizing multivariate statistical analysis. The results showed that the appearance, nutritional content, and culinary value of foxtail millet produced in different ecological regions varied substantially. Different values of amino acids (DVAACs), alkali digestion values (ADVs), and total flavone content (TFC) had the highest coefficients of variation (CVs) of 50.30%, 39.75%, and 35.39%, respectively. Based on this, a comprehensive quality evaluation system for foxtail millet was established, and the quality of foxtail millet produced in the five production areas was ranked in order from highest to lowest: Dingxiang > Zezhou > Qinxian > Xingxian > Yuci. In conclusion, the ecological conditions of Xinding Basin are favorable for ensuring the comprehensive quality of foxtail millet. .

Abstract
Foxtail millet prolamin has been demonstrated to have anti-diabetic effects. In this study, we compared the generation of anti-α-glucosidase peptides derived from prolamins of raw and cooked foxtail millet (PRFM and PCFM). PRFM and PCFM hydrolysates (PRFMH and PCFMH) both exhibited α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. After ultrafiltration according to molecular weight (Mw), the fraction with Mw < 3 kDa in PCFMH (PCFMH<3) showed higher α-glucosidase inhibitory activity than that in PRFMH (PRFMH<3). The composition of α-glucosidase inhibitory peptides identified by de novo sequencing in PCFMH<3 and PRFMH<3 was compared by virtual screening, combining biological activity, net charge, grand average of hydropathicity (GRAVY), and key hydrophobic amino acids (Met, Pro, Phe, and Leu). We found that the proportion of peptides with excellent α-glucosidase binding force in PCFMH<3 was higher than in PRFMH<3. Overall, cooking may positively affect the generation of peptides that perform well in inhibiting α-glucosidase derived from foxtail millet prolamin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Euryale ferox Salisb. is widely grown in China and Southeast Asia as a grain crop and medicinal plant. The composition, morphology, structure, physicochemical properties, thermal properties, and in vitro digestibility of North Euryale ferox seeds starch (NEFS), hybrid Euryale ferox seeds starch (HEFS), and South Euryale ferox seeds starch (SEFS) were studied. RESULT Of the varieties that were studied, the amylose content of NEFS (23.03%) was the highest. Starch granules of each variety were smooth, sharp, small, and had an average diameter of 2 μm. All three varieties were A-type crystals with crystallinity ranging from 26.42% to 28.17%. The degree of double helix and the short-range order ranged from 1.9006 to 2.5324 and 1.4294 to 1.6006, respectively. The high proportion of C1 region in NEFS (17.74%) and HEFS (17.66%) were found. Thermodynamic properties in North Euryale ferox seeds included the highest onset temperature (To ) (71.43 °C), peak temperature (Tp ) (76.60 °C), conclusion temperature (Tc ) (82.77 °C), enthalpy of gelatinization (ΔH) (12.64 J g-1 ), and peak viscosity (1514 mPa·s). All three varieties maintained a low level of in vitro digestibility, with the highest resistant starch (RS) content (29.57%), the lowest rapidly digestible starch (RDS) content (27.07%), and the slowest hydrolysis kinetic constant (0.0303) in NEFS. CONCLUSION The results revealed that the low digestibility of NEFS was attributable to compact granules, high crystallinity, high degree of order, and strong thermal stability. These digestive, physicochemical, and thermodynamic properties provide information for the future application of Euryale ferox seed starch in the food industry. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Rising incidences of life-style disorders like obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases are a matter of concern coupled with escalated consumption of highly refined and high energy foods with low nutrient density. Food choices of consumers have witnessed significant changes globally with rising preference to highly processed palatable foods. Thus, it calls food scientists, researchers and nutritionists' attention towards developing and promoting pleasant-tasting yet healthy foods with added nutritional benefits. This review highlights selected underutilized and novel ingredients from different food sources and their by-products that are gaining popularity because of their nutrient density, that can be employed to improve the nutritional quality of conventionally available empty-calorie foods. It also emphasizes on the therapeutic benefits of foods developed from these understudied grains, nuts, processing by-products of grains, fruits- and vegetable-byproducts and nutraceutical starches. This review aims to draw attention of food scientists and industrialists towards popularizing the utilization of these unconventional, yet nutrient rich foods sources in improving the nutritional profile of the conventional foods lacking in nutrient density.

Abstract
The development of the extraction process for improving the starch yield from unconventional plants is emerging as a topic of interest. In this respect, the present work aimed to optimize the starch extraction from the corms of elephant foot yam (Amorphophallus paeoniifolius) with the help of response surface methodology (RSM) and artificial neural network (ANN). The RSM model performed better than the ANN in predicting the starch yield with higher precision. In this connection, this study for the first time reports the significant improvement of starch yield from A. paeoniifolius (51.76 g/100 g of the corm dry weight). The extracted starch samples based on yield - high (APHS), medium (APMS), and low (APLS) exhibited a variable granule size (7.17-14.14 μm) along with low ash content, moisture content, protein, and free amino acid indicating purity and desirability. The FTIR analysis also confirmed the chemical composition and purity of the starch samples. Moreover, the XRD analysis showed the prevalence of C-type starch (2θ = 14.303°). Based on other physicochemical, biochemical, functional, and pasting properties, the three starch samples showed more or less similar characteristics thereby indicating the sustentation of beneficial attributes of starch molecules irrespective of the variation in extraction parameters.

Abstract
Pearl millet (PM) is a nutri-cereal rich in various macro and micronutrients required for a balanced diet. Its grains have a unique phenolic and micronutrient composition; however, the lower bioaccessibility of nutrients and rancidity of flour during storage are the major constraints in its consumption and wide popularity. Here, to explore the effect of different thermal processing methods, i.e., hydrothermal (HT), microwave (MW), and infrared (IR) treatments, on the digestion of starch, phenolics, and microelements (Fe and Zn), an in vitro digestion model consisting of oral, gastric and intestinal digestion was applied to PM rotis. The hydrothermally treated PM roti was promising as it showed lower inherent glycemic potential (60.4%) than the untreated sample (72.4%) and less enzymatic activities associated with rancidity in PM flour. FTIR revealed an increased ratio of 1047/1022 cm-1 in the hydrothermally treated sample, reflecting the enhancement of the structurally ordered degree and compactness of starch compared to other thermal treatments. A tighter and more compact microstructure with an agglomeration of starch in the hydrothermally treated PM flour was observed by SEM. These structural changes could provide a better understanding of the lower starch digestion rate in the hydrothermally treated flour. However, HT treatment significantly (P < 0.05) reduced the bioaccessibility of phenolics (10.6%) compared to native PM rotis and slightly reduced the Fe (2%) and Zn (3.2%) bioaccessibility present in PM rotis.

Abstract
The commercial quality of foxtail millet grain (Setaria italica L.) includes appearance quality, functional quality, and cooking and eating quality, which directly determine whether consumers will purchase the product. We studied the relationship between ecological factors and commercial quality attributes of foxtail millet "Jingu 21" from twelve production areas. The results showed that altitude, latitude, and diurnal temperature range were negatively correlated with b*, total flavones content (TFC), setback (SB), consistence (CS) and pasting temperature (PTM), but positively correlated with L/B and breakdown (BD). In contrast, average temperature, average precipitation, average humidity, available nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium had positive effects on 1,000-grain weight (KGW), b*, TFC, CS, and PTM and had a negative impact on L/B and BD. Climate factors had a greater effect on the commercial quality of foxtail millet than soil factors, and the influence of climatic factors was particularly obvious in the early and middle growth periods. The multivariate equation between ecological factors and the comprehensive score of foxtail millet commercial quality is Y = 1,159.745-4.496X1 (altitude) + 19.529X5 (≥10℃ effective accumulated temperature) - 166.327X10 (organic matters). In conclusion, high temperature and precipitation are conducive to high quality appearance and the accumulation of functional substances, while a high diurnal temperature range and high soil nutrients are conducive to the formation of cooking and eating quality. The impact of ecological factors on foxtail millet quality is complicated and it is essential to select a cultivation site that is matched to the intended use of the foxtail millet being produced.

Abstract
Millets are a rich source of many health-promoting nutrients as well as bioactive compounds such as dietary fibers, antioxidants, macro and micronutrients etc., compared to other staple cereals such as rice, wheat and maize. These nutrients play a central role in the world nutritional security. Despite the inbuilt nutritional benefits, the production of millets has witnessed sharp decline owing to taste preferences, keeping quality and challenges associated with food preparation from millets. To sensitize the consumers about the nutritional benefits of foxtail millet, the present study was planned to formulate and nutritionally evaluate eight diversified foxtail millet-based food products namely rusk, kheer, pinni, sattu, vegetable dalia, cookies, bar and papad by replacing commonly used cereals such as wheat and rice. The products prepared from Foxtail millet were found to have high acceptability with mean score of more than 8.00. These diversified food products showed higher protein content ranging from 10.98 to 16.10 g/100 g, with the highest protein found in Foxtail millet kheer (16.01 g/100 g). The resistant starch content and predicted glycemic index (PGI) of these products ranged between 13.67 to 22.61 g/100 g and 46.12 to 57.55, respectively, with the highest resistant starch (22.61 ± 0.69 g/100 g) and lowest PGI (48.42 ± 0.20) found in millet bar. The high resistant starch and low PGI in foxtail millet products suggest that they could serve as an excellent food source suitable for diabetics. The obtained results suggest that all the Foxtail millet-based value-added products have superior nutrient profile and are highly acceptable than the traditional products. Inclusion of these foods in the diets of the population may help in the prevention of malnutrition and type 2 diabetes.

Association of Slowly Digestible Starch Intake with Reduction of Postprandial Glycemic Response: An Update Meta-Analysis. Foods 2022; 12:foods12010089.

Abstract
Slowly digestible starch (SDS) has been shown to digest slowly throughout the entire small intestine, generating slow and prolonged release of glucose, according to the in vitro Englyst assay. The aim of this work was to conduct a meta-analysis of up-to-date evidence to evaluate the association between SDS consumption and a reduction in the postprandial glycemic response, including extended glycemic index (EGI) or glycemic profile (GP) parameters, during in vivo digestion. We searched the Web of Science, PubMed, Europe PMC, Cochrane Library, and Embase to identify related articles published up to September 2022. Human trials investigating the effect of the SDS amount on the postprandial glucose profile were estimated at the standard mean difference (SMD), with a 95% confidence interval (CI), using random effect models. The review followed the systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The meta-analysis included a total of 65 participants. The results revealed that the EGI experienced a greater increase (SMD = 24.61, I2 = 79.2%, p < 0.01) after SDS intake, while the GP exhibited similar trends (SMD = 29.18, I2 = 73.3%, p < 0.01). High heterogeneity vanished in the subgroup and sensitivity analysis (EGI: I2 = 14.6%, p = 0.31; GP: I2 = 0.0%, p = 0.97). There was no evidence of publication bias for EGI (p = 0.41) or GP (p = 0.99).The present meta-analysis provides evidence that SDS intake is positively correlated with EGI and GP levels. The quantitative relationship of the reduction in the postprandial glycemic response and SDS consumption was used to quantify the slow digestion property on an extended time scale, and supplement the in vitro concept of SDS.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to investigate the effects of dielectric barrier discharge-air cold plasma (DBD-ACP, 15-35 kV, 2-12 min) on the quality of foxtail millets. The L and b* values were evaluated by a digital colorimeter representing that the color of millets was significantly changed at 25 kV for 4-12 min or at 35 kV for 2-12 min. The results were consistent with the change of total yellow pigment in millets, indicating that DBD-ACP damaged the carotenoids if the treatment condition was too high. The activity of lipoxygenase and lipase, involving the oxidation and hydrolysis of lipids of millet, decreased significantly induced by DBD-ACP. For example, the lipoxygenase and lipase activity of Mizhi millet was decreased from 44.0 to 18.7 U g-1min-1, 56.0-15.1 U/(mg pro) (p<0.05) after being exposed to 25 kV for 2-12 min, respectively. Changes of color, lipoxygenase and lipase activity, and malondialdehyde content of millets were determined during accelerated storage (40 ± 2°C and 75% Relative Humidity) for 15 days after being treated by DBD-ACP under 15 and 25 kV for 4 min. Results showed that millets treated by DBD-ACP at 15 kV kept a better color with lower malondialdehyde content, and lower lipoxygenase and lipase activity compared to control. This work implied that DBD-ACP is an underlying approach for the storage of foxtail millets.

Abstract
Millet is consumed as a staple food, particularly in developing countries, is part of the traditional diet in a number of relatively affluent countries, and is gaining popularity throughout the world. It is a valuable dietary energy source. In addition to high caloric value, several health-promoting attributes have been reported for millet seeds. This review describes many nutritional characteristics of millet seeds and their derivatives that are important to human health: antioxidant, antihypertensive, immunomodulatory or anti-inflammatory, antibacterial or antimicrobial, hypocholesterolemic, hypoglycemic, and anti-carcinogenic potential, and their role as modulators of gut health. There are several varieties, but the main focus of this review is on pearl millet (Cenchrus americanus [synonym Pennisetum glaucum]), one of the most widely eaten millet crops grown in India, though other millet types are also covered. In this article, the health-promoting properties of the natural components (ie, proteins, peptides, polyphenols, polysaccharides, oil, isoflavones, etc.) present in millet seeds are discussed. Although many of these health benefits have been demonstrated using animal models in vitro studies, human intervention-feeding trials are required to confirm several of the potential health benefits of millet seeds. Based on the nutritional and health-promoting attributes known for pearl millet (discussed in this review), finger millet and foxtail millet are suggested as good candidates for use in future nutritional interventions for improved human health.

Abstract
Millets constitute a significant proportion of underutilized grasses and are well known for their climate resilience as well as excellent nutritional profiles. Among millets, foxtail millet (Setaria italica) and its wild relative green foxtail (S. viridis) are collectively regarded as models for studying broad-spectrum traits, including abiotic stress tolerance, C4 photosynthesis, biofuel, and nutritional traits. Since the genome sequence release, the crop has seen an exponential increase in omics studies to dissect agronomic, nutritional, biofuel, and climate-resilience traits. These studies have provided first-hand information on the structure, organization, evolution, and expression of several genes; however, knowledge of the precise roles of such genes and their products remains elusive. Several open-access databases have also been instituted to enable advanced scientific research on these important crops. In this context, the current review enumerates the contemporary trend of research on understanding the climate resilience and other essential traits in Setaria, the knowledge gap, and how the information could be translated for the crop improvement of related millets, biofuel crops, and cereals. Also, the review provides a roadmap for studying other underutilized crop species using Setaria as a model.

Abstract
Foxtail millet (Setaria italica) has a long history of treating gastrointestinal ailments in China; however, little is known about the functional mechanism driving its therapeutic effects. The primary edible form of millet is porridge. This study investigates the effects of millet porridge on diphenoxylate-induced constipation and intestinal microflora in mice. Fifty mice were randomly divided into five groups: normal control group, constipation model group, and low-dose, medium-dose, and high-dose millet porridge groups. After 14 days of millet porridge gavage, constipation was induced and measured. The results showed that millet porridge prevented constipation by increasing the water content of feces, shortened the time of the first melena defecation, promoted gastric emptying, and improved the rate of gastrointestinal propulsion. Millet porridge also dose-dependently increased levels of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus and decreased levels of Escherichia coli, Enterococcus, and Bacteroides in the intestine. These results show that millet porridge could accelerate intestinal motility and change the proportions of intestinal flora and that it has a potent prebiotic effect.

Abstract
Structural evolution, digestibility and inhibition on starch digestion of rice glutelin fibril aggregates (RGFAs) as affected by incubation were investigated. Thioflavin T fluorescence intensity of the RGFAs, incubated for 4-day, reached the maximum values, which ranged from 845.00 ± 23.52 to 873.67 ± 50.30. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observed that the samples heated for 2 h (2 h fibril) were self-assembled from small glutelin aggregates and a few protofibrils into mature fibrils, the samples heated for 4-10 h (4-10 h fibril) were elongated into long, branched fibrils, and the longer fibrils of 15 h fibril sample dissociated into short fibrils after 4-day of incubation. Compared to rice glutelin, the RGFAs showed thermal stability and resistance to proteolysis. The fluorescence retention rate of 6 h fibril, after incubation for 4-day, was 8.62 ± 0.61 % after in vitro stomach and pancreas digestion, which was the highest among all of the samples. The RGFAs incubated for 1-day displayed much better inhibition effects on starch digestion. This was the first study to clarify the relationship between incubation and physicochemical/functional properties of protein fibrils, which could help understand the preservation of food protein fibrils and their application.

Abstract
Seaweeds are traditional food ingredients mainly in seaside regions. Modern food science and nutrition researchers have identified seaweed as a source of functional nutrients, such as dietary soluble and insoluble fibers, proteins, omega-3 fatty acids, prebiotic polysaccharides, polyphenols, and carotenoids. Owing to the rich nutrients, seaweeds and seaweed extract can be used as functional ingredients by modifying the nutrients composition to reduce the proportion of available carbohydrates, delaying the gastric emptying time and the absorption rate of glucose by increasing the digesta viscosity, and attenuating the digesting rate by blocking the activity of digestive enzymes. This review presents the concept of using seaweed as unconventional ingredients that can function synergistically to reduce the glycemic potency of cereal products.

Abstract
Compared with three major cereals, underutilized cereals (UCs) are those with less use but having abundant bioactive components and better functionalities after proper processing. As a productive and energy-efficient technology, extrusion has been used for UC modification to improve its technological and nutritional quality. Extrusion could induce structural and quantitative changes in chemical components of UC flour, the degree of which is affected by extrusion intensity. Based on the predominant component (starch), functionalities of extruded underutilized cereal flour (EUCF) and potential mechanisms are reviewed. Considering bioactive compounds, it also summarizes the physiological functions of EUCF. EUCF incorporation could modulate the dough rheological behavior and starchy foods quality. Controlling extrusion intensity or incorporation level of EUCF is vital to achieve sensory-appealing and nutritious products. This paper gives comprehensive information of EUCF to promote its utilization in novel staple foods.

Abstract
Millets (including sorghum) are known to be highly nutritious besides having a low carbon footprint and the ability to survive in high temperatures with minimal water. Millets are widely recognised as having a low Glycaemic Index (GI) helping to manage diabetes. This systematic review and meta-analyzes across the different types of millets and different forms of processing/cooking collated all evidences. Of the 65 studies that were collected globally, 39 studies with 111 observations were used to analyze GI outcomes and 56 studies were used to analyze fasting, post-prandial glucose level, insulin index and HbA1c outcomes in a meta-analysis. It is evident from the descriptive statistics that the mean GI of millets is 52.7 ± 10.3, which is about 36% lower than in typical staples of milled rice (71.7 ± 14.4) and refined wheat (74.2 ± 14.9). The descriptive, meta and regression analyses revealed that Job's tears, fonio, foxtail, barnyard, and teff were the millets with low mean GI (<55) that are more effective (35-79%) in reducing dietary GI than the control samples. Millets with intermediate GI (55-69) are pearl millet, finger millet, kodo millet, little millet, and sorghum which have a 13-35% lower GI than the control with high GI (>69). A meta-analysis also showed that all millets had significantly (p < 0.01) lower GI than white rice, refined wheat, standard glucose or white wheat bread except little millet which had inconsistent data. Long term millet consumption lowered fasting and post-prandial blood glucose levels significantly (p < 0.01) by 12 and 15%, respectively, in diabetic subjects. There was a significant reduction in HbA1c level (from 6.65 ± 0.4 to 5.67 ± 0.4%) among pre-diabetic individuals (p < 0.01) who consumed millets for a long period. Minimally processed millets were 30% more effective in lowering GI of a meal compared to milled rice and refined wheat. In conclusion, millets can be beneficial in managing and reducing the risk of developing diabetes and could therefore be used to design appropriate meals for diabetic and pre-diabetic subjects as well as for non-diabetic people for a preventive approach.

Abstract
Abstract
This study evaluated the effect of addition of Brachystegia eurycoma flour (BEF), a natural source of hydrocolloids, on the physicochemical properties of whole millet flour (WMF) and the sensory attributes of its gluten-free bread. BEF and sodium carboxylmethyl cellulose (a reference hydrocolloid) were added to WMF at 1.5 and 3% proportions, and breads were baked from the blends. Wheat flour (100%CWF) bread served as the control. Amylose level decreased significantly (p < 0.05), while water absorption capacity, peak and final viscosities of the blends increased with increasing proportion of BEF. The 100%CWF bread had better sensory qualities than WMF-BEF breads. Hence, BEF improved the physicochemical properties of WMF-BEF blend, but did not alter the sensory qualities of its gluten-free bread.

Abstract
Foxtail millet (FM) is receiving ongoing increased attention due to its beneficial health effects, including the hypoglycemic effect. However, the underlying mechanisms of the hypoglycemic effect have been underexplored. In the present study, the hypoglycemic effect of FM supplementation was confirmed again in high-fat diet and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats with significantly decreased fasting glucose (FG), glycated serum protein, and areas under the glucose tolerance test (p < 0.05). We employed 16S rRNA and liver RNA sequencing technologies to identify the target gut microbes and signaling pathways involved in the hypoglycemic effect of FM supplementation. The results showed that FM supplementation significantly increased the relative abundance of Lactobacillus and Ruminococcus_2, which were significantly negatively correlated with FG and 2-h glucose. FM supplementation significantly reversed the trends of gene expression in diabetic rats. Specifically, FM supplementation inhibited gluconeogenesis, stimulated glycolysis, and restored fatty acid synthesis through activation of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. FM also reduced inflammation through inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway. Spearman’s correlation analysis indicated a complicated set of interdependencies among the gut microbiota, signaling pathways, and metabolic parameters. Collectively, the above results suggest that the hypoglycemic effect of FM was at least partially mediated by the increased relative abundance of Lactobacillus, activation of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, and inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway.

Abstract
The tight association between malnutrition and gut microbiota (GM) dysbiosis enables microbiota-targeting intervention to be a promising strategy. Thus, we used a malnourished pig model to investigate the host response and GM alterations under different diet supplementation strategies. Pigs at age of 4 weeks were fed with pure maize diet to induce malnutrition symptoms, and followed by continuous feeding with maize (Maize, n = 8) or re-feeding using either corn-soy-blend (CSB+, n = 10) or millet-soy-blend based (MSB+, n = 10) supplementary food for 3 weeks. Meanwhile, 8 pigs were fed on a standard formulated ration as control (Ref). The effect of nutritional supplementation was assessed by the growth status, blood chemistry, gastrointestinal pathology, mucosal microbiota composition and colon production of short-chain fatty acids. Compared with purely maize-fed pigs, both CSB+ and MSB+ elevated the concentrations of total protein and globulin in blood. These pigs still showed most malnutrition symptoms after the food intervention period. MSB+ had superior influence on the GM development, exhibiting better performance in both structural and functional aspects. MSB+ pigs were colonized by less Proteobacteria but more Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes and Lachnospira spp. Pearson's correlation analysis indicated a strong correlation between the abundance of mucosal e.g., Faecalibacterium and Lachnospira spp. and body weight, crown-rump length and total serum protein. In conclusion, the malnutrition symptoms were accompanied by an aberrant GM, and millet-based nutritional supplementation showed promising potentials to restore the reduced GM diversity implicated in pig malnutrition.

Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf 2021; 20:2660-2698. [PMID: 33884751 DOI: 10.1111/1541-4337.12749] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2020] [Revised: 02/19/2021] [Accepted: 03/08/2021] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
The digestion of starch-based foods in the small intestine as well as factors affecting their digestibility have been previously investigated and reviewed in detail. Starch digestibility has been studied both in vivo and in vitro, with increasing interest in the use of in vitro models. Although previous in vivo studies have indicated the effect of mastication and gastric digestion on the digestibility of solid starch-based foods, the physical breakdown of starch-based foods prior to small intestinal digestion is often less considered. Moreover, gastric digestion has received little attention in the attempt to understand the digestion of solid starch-based foods in the digestive tract. In this review, the physical breakdown of starch-based foods in the mouth and stomach, the quantification of these breakdown processes, and their links to physiological outcomes, such as gastric emptying and glycemic response, are discussed. In addition, the physical breakdown aspects related to gastric digestion that need to be considered when developing in vitro-in vivo correlation in starch digestion studies are discussed. The discussion demonstrates that physical breakdown prior to small intestinal digestion, especially during gastric digestion, should not be neglected in understanding the digestion of solid starch-based foods.

Abstract
The demand for millets and their products is becoming popular globally due to their various health-promoting properties. The major constituent of the millet is its starch which contributes about 70% of total millet grain and decides the quality of millet-based food products. The application of starch for various purposes is dependent upon its physicochemical, structural, and functional properties. A native starch does not possess all the required properties for a specific use. However, product-specific properties can be achieved by modifying the structure of starches. Information deficit on millet starch has undermined its potential use in new food product design. The objective of this review is to examine the chemical composition, characterization, structural chemistry, digestibility, hydrolysis, and modification techniques of the millet starches. The review paper also discusses the various applications of native and modified starches in the food industry.

Abstract
Foxtail millet (Setaria italica), an annual grass plant, produces seeds that possess health-promoting properties owing to its unique protein composition containing a high content of essential amino acids. The mature foxtail seeds mainly consist of proline-rich, alcohol-soluble proteins (prolamin) called setarins, comprising about 60% of the total protein, with less content of disulfide cross-linked proteins than with other cereal and millets. Protein fractionation schemes are an important tool and provide preliminary information on the nature of foxtail proteins for their applications in the field of agriculture, food pharma, and bio-based materials. Variation in the methods of preparation can influence the composition, structure, and nutritional quality of the protein concentrate. Moreover, foxtail protein or its hydrolysate has shown several bioactive effects that can be explored further for the management of chronic diseases in humans. Additionally, owing to its low cost and excellent functional properties of flour and protein concentrate, foxtail millet can be considered as good candidate for replacing animal protein foods. Furthermore, there is huge potential for successfully developing low-cost, protein-rich functional food products helpful in the prevention and management of lifestyle-related chronic diseases. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Millets are a major source of human food, and their production has been steadily increasing in the last decades to meet the dietary requirements of the increasing world population. Millets are an excellent source of all essential nutrients like protein, carbohydrates, fat, minerals, vitamins, and bioactive compounds. However, the nutrients, bioactive compounds, and functions of cereal grains can be influenced by the food preparation techniques such as decortication/dehulling, soaking, germination/malting, milling, fermentation, etc. This study discusses the nutritional and functional changes in millet during different traditional/modern processing techniques, based on more than 100 articles between 2013 and 2020 from Web of Science, Google Scholar, FAO, and USDA databases. Our results concluded that processing techniques could be useful to combat undernourishment and other health issues. Moreover, this review provides detailed information about millet processing, which is advantageous for industry, consumers, and researchers in this area.

Abstract
Current international tables published on the glycaemic index (GI) of foods represent valuable resources for researchers and clinicians. However, the vast majority of published GI values are of Western origin, notably European, Australian and North American. Since these tables focus on Western foods with minimal inclusion of other foods from non-Western countries, their application is of limited global use. The objective of this review is to provide the GI values for a variety of foods that are consumed in non-Western countries. Our review extends and expands on the current GI tables in an attempt to widen its application in many other regions of the world.

Effects of frying, roasting and boiling on aroma profiles of adzuki beans (Vigna angularis) and potential of adzuki bean and millet flours to improve flavor and sensory characteristics of biscuits. Food Chem 2020; 339:127878.

Abstract
Volatile compounds of raw and cooked adzuki beans under three cooking methods namely frying, roasting, and boiling were extracted and identified. The odorants in raw beans changed from "green" and "grassy" to "roasted" and "nutty" in fried and roasted beans. Roasted adzuki beans had the greatest number of volatile compounds and best flavor properties. Because volatiles improve biscuit flavor profiles, biscuits were prepared in which wheat flour was substituted with adzuki bean flour and/or millet flour. The effects of grain flours on the sensory acceptability and aroma of biscuits were evaluated. Descriptive sensory analysis showed that the adzuki bean-millet biscuit had the best sensory quality. Correlation of volatile compounds, biscuit sensory attributes, and biscuit samples showed that maltol contributed to the "caramel-like" aroma of adzuki bean-millet biscuits. Adzuki bean and millet flours have potential in the development of biscuits that meet flavor and nutritional requirements.
