DEVELOPMENT OF NEW NUTRACEUTICAL MEAT PRODUCTS

Obiettivo

"Nutraceuticals" or "pharmafoods" comprise ingredients, formulae and supplements based on bioregulating principles such as vitamins, mineral salts, anti-oxidants, microbic flora, amino acids and vegetable extracts. New 'functional foods' are coming onto the market, nutraceutical foods, pharmafoodss, which are becoming key products in the diet of many Europeans. Although at present the new meat products proposed here do not exist yet in the market. The general objective of the Project is to develop new nutraceutical meat products with a very high palatability and health properties such as:-reduction of unwanted cholesterol in blood (low fat content, olive oil)-decreasing animal fat and enhancing meat quality attributes (CLA supplementation on pork)-reduction of colon disorders, constipation, cancer of the colon, hyperlipidemia problems, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity (oat bran fibre)The formulation of emulsified meat products will be varied to decrease total fat content, and replace saturated fat with lipid components with demonstrated positive health impact. The stabilisation of the meat emulsion of lower fat content will be promoted by the incorporation of vegetable fibre, as well as the use of TG, capable of cross-linking the protein matrix of the emulsion; and its oxidation will be very slow due to the addition natural vegetable antioxidants. This general strategy will be applied to various emulsified meat products, such as meat paste sausages and reconstituted meats. Prototype formulations with the best technological and sensory evaluation scores will be further developed at the meat industry level. Nutritional assessments will be conducted by nutrition specialist in the effect of these products on the serum lipid profile of the consumers. Consumer acceptance studies will be carried out to determine the potential of these products in the market.
