Hypertension is common and contributes, via cardiovascular disease, towards a large proportion of adult deaths in the Western World. High salt intake leads to high blood pressure, even when occurring prior to birth – a mechanism purported to reside i...

Peptic digestion of beef myofibrils is modified by prior marination (2013)
Journal Article
Patel, N., & Welham, S. J. (2013). Peptic digestion of beef myofibrils is modified by prior marination. Food and Nutrition Research, 57(20294), https://doi.org/10.3402/fnr.v57i0.20294

Background: Preparatory steps such as seasoning, marination, and cooking may induce changes in meat which affects the ability of the stomach to adequately digest it. This may result in peptide chains reaching the colon intact where resident bacteri... Read More about Peptic digestion of beef myofibrils is modified by prior marination.
