“…As snacks might significantly contribute to the daily energy intake (16), the development of healthy alternatives incorporating functional ingredients such as oats and common beans might reduce the risk of cardiovascular conditions, providing bioactive compounds with potential health benefits. The BOSB provides higher protein (+52.41-54.49%) and lower lipid (−50%) content than previously assayed oat and beans formulations (13) or pulse-based oat bars (17). In this work, we found that the TDF concentration was also higher than that reported for oat-common bean cookies (+ 93.37%) No significant differences were found between BOSB and control for any variable.…”

Current efforts to prevent dyslipidemia are focused on the development of functional products as an alternative for hypertriglyceridemia management. This study assessed the metabolic effect of the daily consumption of a bean and oats snack bar (BOSB) on hypertriglyceridemia biomarkers among Mexican women. An 8-weeks randomized parallel clinical trial (ID: NCT0496694, https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04966494) was conducted with 26 hypertriglyceridemic women allocated to BOSB group (TG = 208.18 ± 56.97 mg/dL) and control group (TG = 182.28 ± 51.39 mg/dL). Only the BOSB group consumed 50 g of the product per day. Fasting blood samples were taken from women with an adherence ≥ 90%. A targeted proteomic analysis with plasma samples of control and BOSB groups were conducted using a human obesity antibody array kit and bioinformatic tools provided by the Ingenuity Pathways Analysis (IPA) software. Serum TG levels in the BOSB group decreased by 37.80% (132.04 ± 27.83 mg/dL) compared with the control group (178.87 ± 32.01 mg/dL); glucose levels decreased by 5.69% in the BOSB group (87.55 ± 3.36 mg/dL). A modest body weight (5%) reduction was also found. Forty proteins were differentially modulated by the BOSB consumption (fold change > 1.2). The proteomic analysis revealed the involvement of BOSB bioactives in prevention of monocytes recruitment and localized inflammatory response, inhibition of pre-adipocyte maturation and adipogenesis, inhibition of hepatic b-oxidation, and potential satiety regulation. These results are promising since the mere intervention with the BOSB reduced serum TG without diet restriction, giving insights for further research in prevention of hypertriglyceridemia.

An insalubrious diet regime and lack of physical exercise are the root causes for the causation of metabolic diseases. Thus, need for food choices that are nutritious, rich in antioxidants and are ready to eat has grown to a great extent. Accordingly, the present study was planned to develop an antioxidant rich bar with puffed wheat, Chia seed, mango (Leather+peel powder), apple (whole fruit Leather), guava (whole fruit Leather), peanut and honey in different proportions using standard bar moulds. Therefore, three types of bars were prepared, namely mango Chia seed bar, apple Chia seed bar and guava Chia seed bar. Formulated mango Chiaseed bar of 55g showed the highest overall acceptability with 2g mango peel powder and 8g mango leather. Apple Chiaseed bar and guava Chia seed bar were found acceptable on incorporation of 5g leather of apple and guava respectively. The fatty acid profile of the selected bars showed significant increase (p<0.01) in PUFA content. A significant increase (p<0.01) was found in vitamin C and β-carotene content, both of which act as a good natural antioxidants. The bioactive component and antioxidants such as total phenols, flavonoids, tannins showing DPPH, FRAP, ABTS and RPA activity elevated to significant (p<0.01) levels with the highest content in mango chia seed bar. The bar prepared was acceptable and nutrient-dense, therefore can be consumed by the general population to prevent and cure lifestyle diseases by increasing antioxidant content in their diet.
