Consequences of oral deficiencies on intestinal bioaccessibility of nutrients in elderly QuaPA, UNH, and DTA Teams
Résumé
Food transformation starts during mastication, which combined with salivation, reduces particle size and form swallowable boluses. In elderly, oral functions are modified by changes in muscular force or saliva production, among others, providing an inadequate food fragmentation potentially impacting on oral and gastrointestinal digestions. This work aimed to evaluate the consequences of oral deficiencies on glucose release and protein digestibility of bread. 1. BACKGROUND This work demonstrates the impact of oral deficiencies on nutrients bioaccessibility and stresses the importance of designing foods for elderly.
