Conceptualizing Plant-Based Nutrition: Bioresources, Nutrients Repertoire and Bioavailability de Ramesh S. V.

Conceptualizing Plant-Based Nutrition: Bioresources, Nutrients Repertoire and Bioavailability

Editat de Ramesh S. V., Shelly Praveen
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 oct 2022
This book deliberates on the various aspects of plant-based nutrition. Plant-based nutrition has numerous potential health benefits as it is low on calories nevertheless high on nutrient density and satiety, and also nutrient supplementation makes them wholesome diets.
Starting with the importance of biodiversity contributing to the nutrition, the book discusses the development or utilization of nutrient-dense crops/foods with their bioavailability properties and health effects. Further, it deals with the enrichment of micronutrients through bio-fortification, fortification, the role of food matrix, and nutrient bioavailability, including the role of plant-based milk alternatives. The linkage between food and health is also being discussed in the context of anti-nutritional factors, metabolic fate of the food, and genomics. Finally, the implications of next-gen biotech crops and food safety issues imperative to define the concept of safe nutrition are discussed.
With contributions from plant nutrition experts, this book serves as a one-stop reference for plant scientists, food technologists, and nutritionists looking to understand the concept of plant-based nutrition and its linkage with human health.

Notă biografică

Dr. S. V. Ramesh is presently serving ICAR-Central Plantation Crops Research Institute (ICARCPCRI), Kasaragod, Kerala, India, as a Senior Scientist (Biotechnology). His field of specialization is plant biochemistry and molecular biology having obtained his master’s and doctorate degrees in plant biochemistry. His current research focus includes nutritional biochemistry and bioactives of nutraceutical potential in plantation crops. He is a recipient of DBT-CTEP Travel Award and AABSc-sponsored Young Plant Biotechnologist Award. His postdoctoral research in the field of plant and viral small non-coding RNAs at Washington State University, USA, was sponsored under DBT-CREST Fellowship. He has published many scholarly articles—spread over diverse fields, viz., plantation biology, nutrition biochemistry and plant–virus interactions—in journals of international and national repute and presented his research findings in several international scientific fora. He also features inthe editorial boards of international journals PLOS ONE and Measurement: Food.
Dr. Shelly Praveen has an illustrious career in research, teaching, program management, and research policy development at ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute, India, leading to the publication of over 100 research articles. Dr. Praveen’s contributions as a Head of the Division of Biochemistry at ICAR-IARI, New Delhi, and Director of the Centre for Advanced Faculty Training are immense. She bolstered the industry-academia synergy and launched a portfolio of developing millet-based fortified foods. Earlier, Dr. Praveen led a multidisciplinary team in the development of virus-resistant transgenic tomato and collaborated with international academia including Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, Spain; King Saud University; Scottish Crop Research Institute; CIB, CSIC, Spain; and CREC, Florida, USA. Dr. Praveen has been honored with coveted Awards and Fellowships including Fellow of NASI,Fellow of NAAS, Associate of The World Academy of Sciences, and Panjabrao Deshmukh Outstanding Woman Scientist Award, ICAR, to name a few. Currently, she is engaged in nutrition for health management through service in nutritionally important foods across globe.
