ClinConnect Summary

The energy content of food can be in principle calculated by multiplying the content of each energy-yielding substrate by the corresponding heat of combustion. However, only part of this energy yielding substrates is converted to energy because of their incomplete digestion and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract. The structural composition of foods, known as the food matrix, significantly affects nutrient bioavailability. One such structural feature is the integrity of plant tissues characterised by the interconnected, continuous network of cell walls which surround and protect plant ...
