Problems and prospects of functional nutrition in Russia: industry and social aspect

Abstract

In recent years, great importance has been attached to the preservation and strengthening of public health, the role of disease prevention and the formation of a healthy lifestyle, including the formation of a culture of healthy nutrition of the population. Prolonged improper, irrational nutrition is a factor of increased risk of developing diseases: oncological diseases, alimentary risk factors of which are the presence of carcinogenic additives in food products; diseases of the cardiovascular system; obesity; disorders of the gastrointestinal tract due to the low content of dietary fiber in food; osteoporosis is a change in the composition of bones due to the loss of calcium. The analysis of the nutrition structure of the Russian population indicates significant deviations from the recommendations on rational norms of food consumption that meet modern requirements of a healthy diet. In this paper, a matrix method of developing a formula for a fermented milk product with a high protein content is considered by enriching yogurt with vegetable components: hemp flour, jerusalem artichoke syrup and agave syrup. Using the obtained recipes, samples of fermented milk products were prepared and tasting was carried out. According to the organoleptic results, the expediency of using the matrix method of computer modeling in the development of formulations of fermented milk products is confirmed. The resulting yogurts can be recommended for use by people with diabetes and those who lead a healthy lifestyle, because the protein content in the samples has been increased to 3.7% and the introduction of sugar is excluded.
