This is a convergence study to investigate the relationship between cereal intake level and food and nutrient intake in 218 Chinese middle aged women aged 40 to 65 years. Data were analyzed by ${\chi}^2$ test, ANOVA, correlation analysis and Jonckheere-Terpstra trend test using SPSS 22.0 program. The results of the study were as follows. The higher the level of cereal intake in the subjects, the lower were the rate of breakfast fasting (p for trend=0.000), overeating (p for trend=0.019), and eating out (p for trend=0.003). The intake of root and tuber crops(p for trend=0.008), meat(p for trend=0.043), pulses(p for trend=0.020), and light colored vegetables(p for trend=0.015) per 1,000 kcal of energy increased when the level of cereal intake was 6 to 9 units. Therefore, it is necessary to discuss and study for continuous education and improvement through the feedback so that the middle-aged women can take the cereal appropriately.

The effects of cereal (rice, brown rice, barley, glutinous rice) ethanol extracts on the proliferation, nitric oxide (NO) production, and level of tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ (TNF-${\alpha}$) in B and T lymphocytes, isolated from human blood cells of sasang constitution, were examined in vitro. The rice, brown rice, and glutinous rice ethanol extract, which are known as suitable for eumin (taeumin and soeumin) constitutions, showed the highest activities for proliferation, NO production, and TNF-${\alpha}$ concentration, respectively. However, the barley ethanol extract, which is known tobe suitable for yangin (taeyangin and soyangin) constitutions, showed the highest overall activities for proliferation, NO production, and TNF-${\alpha}$ concentration. The different immunological activities of the cereal extracts in sasang constitution lymphocytes might be due to their individual components. Thus, determination of components from the cereal extracts suitable for sasang constitution could be useful in new food developments.

This study was carried out to determine the blood glucose responses to 10 kinds of typical Korean domestic meals, 9 kinds of eating out meals and 5 kinds of diabetic meals recommended by hospitals. The levels of blood glucose were measured at 15, 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after taking 24 kinds of meals(500$\pm$10㎉) and 50g of glucose to healthy volunteers. The blood glucose response areas and glycemic index(GI) were calculated. There was no invariable tendency of blood glucose responses among diabetic meals, general domestic meals and eating out meals. As the units of grain groups were increased, the GI of meals was increase. When the units of grain groups are same, the side dishes also affected the blood glucose responses, however, it is yet unknown what kinds of food materials of side dishes affected the blood glucose responses. Noodles (Chinese style, kalgugsu(Korean home made) and ramen) lowered blood glucose responses compared to steamed rice. Mixing barley and brown rice with polished rich also lowered blood glucose responses, especially when the mixing ratio of them was over the 15%. The lowering efficiency of barely was greater than brown rice. More than three grain units of rice increased the blood glucose response. The GI was significantly correlated with left area ratio(LAR), right area ratio(RAR) and blood glucose levels at 15, 30, 60, 90 minutes. The RAR and blood glucose levels at 30 minutes profoundly affected the GI.

This study was conducted to investigate the nutritional value of germinated barley with animal experiment. Fourthyeight weanling albino rats, which were divided into 8 groups, were fed during 4 weeks. The feed intake, energy intake, FER (feed efficiency ratio) and growth rate were slightly high in the casein supplemented groups and were significantly high in the rice and casein supplemented groups. But there was no a significant difference between the barley and germinated barley groups. A higher PER (protein efficiency ratio) was shown in the rice and casein supplemented groups. It was induced that mixed cereal protein increase the PER compared to simple cereal protein. Low apparent digestibility of the diet and of the protein were found in barley and germinated barley groups compared to standard and rice groups. But apparent digestibility of protein in germinated barley groups were markedly increased by the supplementation of 5% casein or supplementation of rice and casein. From this result it was concluded that germinated barley has a nutritional effect on increasing protein digestibility when added enough amount of animal protein.

Purpose: This study evaluated the dietary quality of lunches consumed through home meals, institutional meals, and eating-out at restaurants in Chinese adults. Methods: The total of 3,708 people (aged 20 ~ 64) were selected from the data of the 2011 China Health and Nutrition Survey and divided into three groups: the home (HM, 2,845 people), institutional (IM, 579 people), and eating-out (EO, 284 people) meal groups. Dietary intakes of eight food groups, the frequency of eating certain foods, food group intake pattern, dietary diversity and the variety score of lunches were analyzed. Results: The meat intake of IM and EO were higher than that of HM (p < 0.05), and the vegetable intake was the highest in HM, followed by IM and EO (p < 0.05). The intake of fruit and milk·dairy products were extremely low in all the groups. Compared with 1/3 daily recommended intake, the meat intake was above the standard in all the groups and the vegetable intake was insufficient only in EO. The most frequently consumed food in all the groups was rice, followed by pork. The relatively desirable food group pattern, "grain + meat + vegetable", was highest in IM (66.0%) and lowest in EO (48.2%). The "grain + vegetable" pattern in HM and the "grain + meat" pattern in EO were relatively higher than that in the other groups. The dietary diversity score (p < 0.001) and dietary variety score (p < 0.001) were significantly higher in IM than that in the HM or EO. Conclusion: The lunches of Chinese adults had common problems in excess meat intake and a severe lack of fruit and milk·dairy products. Even institutional meals were not ideal as single meals for Chinese adults, although they were better in food diversity. Customized dietary educational programs based on balanced meal plans need to be established, especially for those Chinese people having lunch at home or eating out. In addition, a systematic food service program should be developed and firmly implemented.

Photostimulated luminescence (PSL) analysis was applied to determine whether some agricultural commodities of Korean and Chinese origins have been irradiated or not. Cereals (brown rice and buckwheat) and legumes (soybean, peanut, fed bean and mung bean) were exposed to gamma irradiation at 0.5 ∼4 kGy The Korean garlic was irradiated at 0.05 ∼0.5 kGy. Cereals and mung bean were tool applicable to the PSL measurement, showing the intermediate values between the lower (700 photon counts, negative) and the upper threshold values (5,000, positive), however PSL values determined for soybean, peanut, red bean and garlic were suitable for being discriminated between nonirradiated and irradiated samples. There was no significant difference in PSL properties accgrding to the sample origins.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the nutritional quality of complementary baby food products sold in Korea according to the baby food stages and food composition. Methods: A total of 1,587 complementary food products sold online and offline between March and December 2021 were investigated. They ranged from liquid meals to solid rice for babies aged 5 to 36 months. Results: The number of intakes per packaged volume was 2.8 in Stage 1, 1.9 in Stage 2, 1.4 in Stage 3, and 1.1 in Stage 4 (p < 0.0001). The dietary variety scores (DVS) of the complementary baby food products were 3.4 in Stage 1, 5.5 in Stage 2, 7.1 in Stage 3, and 9.7 in Stage 4 (p < 0.0001) and showed a significant increase in the later stages. The Korean dietary diversity score (KDDS) significantly increased from 2.3 in Stage 1, to 2.8 in Stage 2, 3.0 in Stage 3, and 3.4 in Stage 4 (p < 0.0001). The higher the baby food stage, the higher the proportion of grains/meat/vegetable ingredients. The ratio of protein intake to Adequate Intake (AI) or Recommended Nutrition Intake (RNI) was higher in products with a KDDS of 3 points or more, or in products with 2 points or fewer in Stages 1 and 2 (p < 0.0001, respectively). The ratio of protein intake to RNI increased as the KDDS score increased in Stages 3 and 4 (p < 0.0001, respectively). For all stages of baby foods, the ratio of protein intake to AI or RNI was high in products that included the meat group (beans, nuts, meat, eggs, fish, and shellfish) (p < 0.0001, respectively). Conclusion: Continuous research and nutritional evaluation are required for establishing nutrient content standards for commercially available baby foods, considering breast milk intake.

The effect of three different grains supplemented diet as a dietary carbohydrate source on the growing rat, growth, food intake, FER and PER value, excretion of urinary arid fecal nitrogen and glucose and the level of glucose and cholesterol in serum blood was studied. Forty males and same number of females of Albino rats weighing male $58{\pm}2g$, female$62{\pm}2g$ were divided into eight experimental group, five male and female in each and fed rice diet, rice supplemented with wheat and rice supplemented with barley diet for 14 weeks. Under this condition wheat supplemented diet group shows the best FER, PER and body weight gain value. Especially in female group shows better FER, PER and body weight gain value compare to control diet group. Under the male groups wheat supplemented diet group shows lower FER, PER value and body weight compare to the control group but higher than those of barley diet group or rice alone. In female group the nitrogen retention shows also highest value by wheat supplemented diet group. By male group the wheat supplemented diet group shows not better value compare to the control group, but higer than barley supplemented group or rice alone. The nitrogen excretion through feces was significantly higher by grain supplemented diet group compare to grain the 20% sugar casein diet. The blood cholesterol content was slightly decreased by the control group which was fed disaccaride, compare to groups which were fed polysaccaride. But the free cholesterol to esterified cholesterol ratio shows lower value by control group than grain groups except the 70% rice supplemented with 30% barley group.

본 연구는 폐경전 성인여성들의 골격상태를 알아보고 신체계측 및 식이섭취실태가 골밀도에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위해서 성인여성 61명을 대상으로 신체계측을 실시하고 24시간 회상법으로 영양소 및 주요 식품군의 식품섭취실태를 조사하고 DEXA를 사용하여 요추와 대퇴부 3부위의 골밀도를 측정하였다. 1) 대상자들의 평균 연령은 37세였으며, 평균 신장과 체중은 158.17cm, 54.55kg였으며, 평균 BMI와 WHR은 21.82, 0.78로 대상자들의 비만도는 정상이었다. 2) 평균 골밀도는 요추(L24) 1.04 g/$\textrm{cm}^2$, 대퇴경부 0.76g/$\textrm{cm}^2$, 대퇴전자부 0.66g/$\textrm{cm}^2$, 와드삼각부 0.69g/$\textrm{cm}^2$이었다. 3) T-score로 판정시 요추(L24)의 경우 골다공증군 3.28%, 골감소증군 14.75%, 대퇴경부의 경우 골다공증군 9.84%, 골감소증군 52.46%, 대퇴전자부의 경우 골다공증군 1.64%, 골감소증군 34.43%, 와드삼각부의 경우 골다공증군 6.56%, 골감소증군 45.90%였다. 4) 영양소중 칼슘(78.75%), 철분(69.75%) 및 비타민 A(92.17%) 영양소의 1일 평균 섭취량은 영양권장량보다 낮은 수준이었다. 5) 신체계측 및 영양소섭취량과 골밀도와의 상관관계분석에서 신체계측에서 체중(p < 0.05), 엉덩이둘레(p < 0.01), 제지방함량(p < 0.05), 총수분함량(p < 0.05)이 높을수록 요추골밀도가 유의하게 높았으나, 영양소섭취량은 골밀도와 유의한 상관성을 보이지 않았다. 6) 주요 식품군의 식품섭취실태와 골밀도와의 상관관계분석에서 버섯군의 식품섭취횟수(p < 0.05, p < 0.05)가 많을수록 요추(L3, L24)의 골밀도가 각각 유의하게 높았으며, 유지류군의 섭취식품수(p < 0.05)가 많을수록 와드삼각부의 골밀도가 유의하게 높았으나 곡류군의 섭취식품수(P < 0.01, p < 0.05, p < 0.05)가 많을수록 대퇴부 3부위 (대퇴경부, 대퇴전자부 및 와드삼각부)의 골밀도가 각각 유의하게 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과에서 폐경전 성인여성의 경우 요추보다는 대퇴부 3부위의 경우 골다공증이나 골감소증의 비율이 상대적으로 높았으며, 특히 대퇴경부에 있어서 골다공증이나 골감소증의 비율이 가장 높았음을 알 수 있다. 또한 요추와 대퇴부 3부위의 골밀도는 영양소섭취량과 유의한 상관관계를 보이지 않았으나 체중, 엉덩이둘레 등의 신체계측요인과 곡류군, 버섯군 및 유지류군 등의 주요 식품군의 식품섭취실태와 밀접한 상관관계를 보이고 있음을 알 수 있다. 따라서 성인여성에 있어서 골밀도손실을 예방하기 위해 평상시 적절한 체중유지와 아울러 식생활지침에 있어서 주요식품군별로 적절한 섭취식품의 수, 섭취량 및 섭취빈도에 대한 영양교육이 필요한 것으로 생각된다.
