ABSTRACT

Esta investigación de campo se enfocó en hacer un estudio sobre la alimentación de las personas celiacas en El Salvador asociadas en ACELYSES. Se propuso un recetario de alimentos libres de gluten como fuente de carbohidratos complejos, a base de yuca, camote y otros vegetales inocuos para contribuir en la dieta de personas con intolerancia al gluten (celíacos). Para la elaboración de las 27 recetas fue necesario dar prioridad a la inocuidad y control de la contaminación cruzada, es decir, que los alimentos no hayan sido contaminados con gluten en ningún proceso. Otro aspecto importante fue analizar la trazabilidad de las materias primas que se deben utilizar para preparar los alimentos, así como los utensilios con los que se preparan, a fin de evitar riesgos a las personas con esta patología. Se realizaron pruebas sensoriales y hedónicas a través de focus group para obtener la opinión de aceptación de las recetas propuestas; igualmente, se elaboró una tabla con el contenido nutricional de cada receta, lo cual permitirá al usuario informarse del consumo de grasas, carbohidratos y otros minerales en beneficio de su salud.


This field research was focused on conducting a study of the diet of people with celiac disease in El Salvador associated with ACELYSES. A recipe book for gluten-free foods was proposed as a source of complex carbohydrates, based on yucca, sweet potato and other harmless vegetables to contribute to the diet of people with gluten intolerance (celiacs). For the preparation of the 27 recipes, it was necessary to give priority to safety and control of cross contamination, that means that the food had not been contaminated with gluten in any process. Another important aspect was to analyze the traceability of the raw materials that should be used to prepare food, as well as the utensils with which they are prepared, in order to avoid risks to people with this pathology. Sensory and hedonic tests were carried out through focus groups to obtain the opinion of acceptance of the proposed recipes; Likewise, a table was prepared with the nutritional content of each recipe, which can allow the user to find out about the consumption of other fats, carbohydrates and minerals for the benefit of their health.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Se evaluó químicamente el perfil de aminoácidos y contenido de vitaminas según la metodología oficial, las harinas crudas de batata y tratadas térmicamente por cocción. Se obtuvieron harinas crudas con contenidos de carbohidratos totales de 84,81%, almidón 50,65%, proteínas de 2,94%, contenidos de grasa cruda de 0,34%. Se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas (p≤ 0,05) por efecto de los tratamientos aplicados. Se redujo el contenido de humedad, cenizas, carbohidratos totales y azúcares reductores. Se observó un incremento en el contenido de fibra cruda. Predominaron en todas las harinas los aminoácidos ácido glutámico y ácido aspártico, el aminoácido limitante fue triptófano. Por efecto de los tratamientos aplicados, hubo diferencias (p≤ 0,05) en la composición de la mayoría de los aminoácidos, incrementando su concentración. El contenido de vitaminas A y C disminuyó por efecto de los tratamientos aplicados (p≤ 0,05). Se concluye que las harinas crudas de batata y cocidas pueden ser empleadas en la formulación de alimentos ya que aportan buenas cantidades de nutrientes.


ABSTRACT The chemical composition, amino acid profile and vitamin content of sweet potato flour (raw and heat treated by cooking) were evaluated according to official methodology. Crude flours with total carbohydrate content of 84.81%, starch 50.65%, proteins 2.94% and crude fat contents 0.34% were used. Statistically significant differences were found (p≤ 0.05) due to the effect of the applied treatments. The content of humidity, ash, total carbohydrates and reducing sugars were reduced and an increase in crude fiber content was observed. The amino acids glutamic acid and aspartic acid predominated in all flours. We observed low levels of the amino acid tryptophan. There were statistically significant differences (p≤ 0.05) due to the effect of the treatments applied on the composition of most of the amino acids, increasing their concentration. Vitamin A and C content decreased due to the effect of the applied treatments (p≤ 0.05). Raw and cooked sweet potato flours can be used in food formulation because they provide good amounts of nutrients.

ABSTRACT

Resumen Antecedentes: la deficiencia de vitamina A persiste como problema de salud pública en el área campesina e indígena de Panamá. Objetivo: determinar la aceptabilidad y preferencia de las amas de casa por cuatro recetas con camote biofortificado en comunidades indígenas y campesinas. Materiales y métodos: estudio piloto descriptivo y transversal en 50 amas de casas provenientes de Chichica, Comarca indígena Ngäbe-Buglé, y El Copé, comunidad campesina ubicada en la provincia de Coclé, Panamá. Se aplicaron pruebas de aceptabilidad sensorial y de preferencia mediante escala hedónica a cuatro recetas locales de camote (pesada de camote, refresco de camote, tamal de camote y camote asado). Se recolectaron datos sociodemográficos, sobre diversidad dietética y frecuencia de consumo de alimentos fuente de vitamina A. También se realizó un análisis de contenido de vitamina A al camote biofortificado. Resultados: participaron 50 mujeres, 62 % Chichica, 52 % edad 34-49 años. Se observó diferencia en la diversidad de dieta por comunidad para raíces/ tubérculos y vegetales/hortalizas en Chichica (81 % y 48 %, respectivamente) y El Copé (42 % y 11 %, respectivamente) (prueba de proporciones prtest, p<0,05); también en frutas color naranja, vísceras/carnes y lácteos en Chichica (55 %, 42 % y 58 %, respectivamente) y El Copé (84 %, 74 % y 79 %, respectivamente) (prtest, p<0,05). La aceptabilidad fue alta para pesada (94 %), refresco (98 %), tamal (100 %) y camote asado (84 %). La preferencia fue alta para tamal de camote (92 %), sin diferencias por comunidad (prtest, p=0,112). La preferencia fue alta para pesada en El Copé (74 %) y refresco en Chichica (61 %), se observó diferencia significativa (prtest, p=0,0163). El contenido de vitamina A del camote biofortificado fue de 1000 µg/100 g. Conclusiones: las cuatro preparaciones evaluadas son aceptadas. La preferencia es mayor para el tamal en ambas comunidades, la pesada de camote en El Copé y el refresco de camote en Chichica.


Abstract Background: Vitamin A deficiency persists as public health problem in Panamanian rural communities. Objective: To determine acceptability and preference of four recipes using biofortified sweet potatoes by Panamanian women in rural non-indigenous and indigenous communities. Materials and Methods: A descriptive and cross-sectional pilot study with 50 women from rural non-indigenous and indigenous communities of El Cope (Coclé Province) and Chichica (Comarca Ngäbe Buglé), in Panama. Sensory acceptability and preference tests were applied using hedonic scale to evaluate four local recipes (sweet potato pesada, sweet potato drink, sweet potato tamale, and roasted sweet potato). Sociodemographic data, diversity of diet and frequency of vitamin A food sources were collected. Additionally, vitamin A composition analysis were used to evaluate the content in the biofortified sweet potato. Results: A total of 50 women, 62 % in Chichica, 52 % in 34-49 years range. Significant difference was observed in diet diversity for roots/tubers and vegetables groups in Chichica 81 % y 48 %, respectively) and El Copé (42 % y 11 %, respectively) (proportional test (prtest), p<0.05); as well as for orange colored fruits, meats and milk/dairy groups in Chichica (55 %, 42 % y 58 %, respectively) and El Copé (84 %, 74 % y 79 %, respectively) (prtest, p<0.05). High acceptability for all recipes, pesada (94 %), sweet potato drink (98 %), tamale (100 %), and roasted sweet potato (84 %). Preference is high for sweet potato tamale in both communities as a savory recipe; and sweet potato pesada in El Copé (74 %) and sweet potato drink in Chichica (61 %) as sweet recipes (prtest, p=0.0163). Vitamin A content in the biofortified sweet potato is 1000µg/100g. Conclusion: The four recipes are accepted. Preference for tamale in both communities; preference for pesada in El Copé and sweet potato drink in Chichica.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To analyze the hematological effects of administering Ipomoea batatas (I. batatas) and Phyllanthus niruri (P. niruri) in the ICR mice. Methods: Powdered leaves of I. batatas and P. niruri were fed to mice for 4 weeks. A total of six groups were used to determine the effect of the plants to the complete blood count of the mouse. Group A (blank control) mice were feed with pellets only; Group B (negative control) mice were fed with pellets coated with honey; Group C (low dosage) mice were fed with honey-coated pellets and powdered leaves of I. batatas at 10 g/kg body weight of the mouse; Group D (high dosage) mice were fed with honey-coated pellets and powdered leaves of I. batatas at 20 g/kg body weight of the mouse; Group E (low dosage) mice were fed with honey-coated pellets and powdered leaves of P. niruri at 10 g/kg body weight of the mouse; and Group F (high dosage) mice were fed with honey-coated pellets and powdered leaves of P. niruri at 20 g/kg body weight of the mouse. Complete blood count was performed on Days 0, 14 and 28. Results: It was shown that I. batatas can increase the values of hematocrit and hemoglobin on both the low dose and high dose at Day 28 and red blood cells (RBC) on both Days 14 and 28 of testing. On the other hand, P. niruri can increase RBC, hematocrit and hemoglobin on Day 28 with only the low dose. There were no significant differences with white blood cell, absolute granulocyte, lymphocyte and monocyte, and platelet counts observed for both plant samples. Conclusions: I. batatas and P. niruri have effects on the hematocrit, RBC and hemoglobin levels in mice.
