Phytochemical contents and antioxidant activities of some Tunisian faba bean populations.
TL;DR: Most Tunisian genotypes had a comparable micronutrients and phytochemicals composition to the commercial varieties, and all genotypes exhibited a ferric-reducing power.

Formation and Properties of Recombined Soymilk and Cow's Milk Gels: Effect of Glucono-δ-lactone.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that modulating the usage of GDL for casein and soy protein aggregation enabled the mixture of soy milk and cow's milk to obtain a new category of milk gel products.

Cardiovascular disease risk factors in postmenopausal women: excess iron is related to central adiposity but not to oxidative stress
TL;DR: Postmenopausal women recruited for the Soy Isoflavones for Reducing Bone Loss study were recruited for a randomized, double-blind, clinical trial designed to examine the effect of soy isoflavomes on bone.
Journal Article
The impact of processing on in vitro bioactive compounds bioavailability and antioxidant activities in faba bean (Vicia faba L.) and azuki bean (Vigna angularis L.)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated how cooking methods and in vitro digestion affect bioactive compounds they contain and data related to bioavailability of polyphenols are limited, and they investigated how some cooking methods, such as cold water and cooking with NaHCO 3, influence antioxidant activity, total phenols (TP), and total flavonoids (TF) of faba beans and azuki beans.

Dietary Modulation of the Human Colonic Microbiota: Introducing the Concept of Prebiotics
TL;DR: By combining the rationale of pro- and prebiotics, the concept of synbiotics is proposed to characterize some colonic foods with interesting nutritional properties that make these compounds candidates for classification as health-enhancing functional food ingredients.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of dietary patterns on blood pressure were assessed in a clinical trial, Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, where the subjects were fed a control diet that was low in fruits, vegetables, and dairy products, with a fat content typical of the average diet in the United States.

TL;DR: Genistein inhibited the EGF-stimulated increase in phosphotyrosine level in A431 cells and scarcely inhibited the enzyme activities of serine- and threonine-specific protein kinases such as cAMP-dependent protein kinase, phosphorylase kinases, and the Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent enzymeprotein kinase C.

TL;DR: The effect of different foods on the blood glucose levels was fed individually to groups of 5 to 10 healthy fasting volunteers, and a significant negative relationship was seen between fat and protein and postprandial glucose rise but not with fiber or sugar content.

Fruit, vegetables, and cancer prevention: A review of the epidemiological evidence
TL;DR: It would appear that major public health benefits could be achieved by substantially increasing consumption of fruit and vegetable consumption, and in particular in cancers of the esophagus, oral cavity, and larynx, for which 28 of 29 studies were significant.
