Non-vegan consumers buying vegan food: the moderating role of conformity

Elisa Martinelli et al.

Summary: This study conducted an online survey in Italy to explore the moderating role of conformity in influencing non-vegan consumers to purchase vegan food. The findings show that spiritual and animal concerns directly impact non-vegan buyers' attitude towards vegan food, which in turn strongly influences their intention to purchase vegan foods. Additionally, the willingness to pay a premium price also positively influences their intention to buy vegan food.

Prebiotics enhance the biotransformation and bioavailability of ginsenosides in rats by modulating gut microbiota

Xiaoyan Zhang et al.

Summary: The study found that modulation of gut microbiota through prebiotics can increase the concentration of ginsenosides and their metabolites in vivo, thereby improving their bioavailability. Prebiotic treatment has a significant impact on the classification and function of gut microbiota, promoting the proliferation of specific bacterial strains with glycoside hydrolysis capacity to enhance the biotransformation and bioavailability of ginsenosides.

Vegan Alternatives to Processed Cheese and Yogurt Launched in the European Market during 2020: A Nutritional Challenge?

Fatma Boukid et al.

Summary: The vegan cheese and yogurt markets are rapidly growing in Europe, providing more energy, fats, and carbohydrates compared to dairy products, with similar levels of saturated fatty acids, sugars, and salt. Vegan alternatives also offer a greater variety of allergen options. Vegan cheese shows more versatility in form but lower protein, salt, and sugar content compared to dairy cheese. Food developers are focusing on clean label solutions and natural ingredients to enhance the nutritional values of vegan products and appeal to flexitarians.

Ready-to-eat blueberries as fruit-based alternative to deliver probiotic microorganisms and prebiotic compounds

Maria F. Bambace et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the potential use of fresh blueberries as carriers of Lacticaseibacillus casei and Bifidobacterium animalis, finding that prebiotic enrichment helped maintain probiotic viability and protect fruit quality. Both probiotics exhibited biocontrol effects on harmful bacteria, and the application of prebiotic coatings maintained the quality of blueberries enriched with bifidobacteria for 14 days at 5 degrees Celsius. This development of functional blueberries coated with prebiotic-probiotic mixtures provides a novel and healthy alternative to meet consumer demand.

Applying probiotics and prebiotics in new delivery formats-is the clinical evidence transferable?

Marla Cunningham et al.

Summary: This study provides an overview of how probiotic and prebiotic efficacy may be influenced by processing and incorporation into different delivery matrices. While in vitro data shows potential interactions with the delivery matrix, evidence for significant in vivo impact is limited. Regulatory expectations vary among regions, but typically allow for scientific justification to translate evidence across product formats. Host factors such as diet, health, and microbiome status are likely to play a key role in individual responses to probiotics and prebiotics.
