Recently, medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) containing a large fraction of lauric acid (LA) (C12)—about 30%—have been introduced commercially for use in salad oils and in cooking applications. As ...

The active site of the enzyme, which contains critical metal ions like magnesium (Mg²⁺) or cobalt (Co²⁺), stabilizes the substrate and facilitates the conversion between the aldose (glucose) and ...

It is low calorie sweetener produced enzymatically from D-fructose by enzymes D-ketose 3-epimerase (DKEase) family. D-allulose has a similar taste, texture and functionality as sweetener comparing to ...

OLIGOSACCHARIDES composed of glucose and fructose units have been detected by various workers recently in extracts of Jerusalem artichoke, wheat flour, barley and agave. A number of ...

Ketosis is a metabolic process. When the body does not have enough glucose for energy, it burns stored fats instead. This results in a buildup of acids called ketones. Some people encourage ...

Ketosis is a natural metabolic state in which the body primarily burns stored fat, instead of glucose, for fuel. Ways of doing this include reducing carbohydrate intake and doing more exercise ...

Very-low-carbohydrate ketogenic diets have been long been used to reduce seizure frequency and more recently have been promoted for a variety of health conditions, including obesity, diabetes, and ...

The acyclic form of monosaccharides exists in a structural equilibrium, with aldose having the aldehyde group and ketose the ketone group (ketose–aldose equilibrium). A basic catalyst facilitates ...

Purpose: Studies on long-term sustainability of low-carbohydrate approaches to treat diabetes are limited. We previously reported the effectiveness of a novel digitally-monitored continuous care ...
