Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We kindly invite you to submit your contributions to this Special Issue entitled “Advances in Novel Foods, Gut Microbiota, and Human Health—Volume II”. This Special Issue aims to cover the most recent advances in the new trends of eating habits and behaviors and to assess and discuss their impact on human gut microbiota and human health and wellbeing. Thus, the development of new ingredients, new foods, new nutraceuticals or new delivery systems (e.g., hydrogels, nanoparticles and microparticles), or their application in a variety of food and nutraceutical-related industries, are welcome. Topics concerning the bioaccessibility and bioavailability of new ingredients or new foods, assessment of the impact on human gut microbiota, and research on the gut–brain axis and inflammatory axis are also welcome. Up-to-date original research and reviews on these topics are welcome; we look forward to receiving your interesting work.

Bakery products, especially bread, exist in many homes worldwide. One of the main reasons for its high consumption is that the main raw material is wheat, a cereal that can adapt to a wide variety of soils and climates. However, the nutritional quality of this raw material decreases during its industrial processing, decreasing the value of fibers, proteins, and minerals. Therefore, bread has become a product of high interest to increase its nutritional value. Due to the high consumption of bread, this paper provides a general description of the physicochemical and rheological changes of the dough, as well as the sensory properties of bread by incorporating alternative flours such as beans, lentils, and soy (among others). The reviewed data show that alternative flours can improve fiber, macro, and micronutrient content. The high fiber content reduces the quality of the texture of the products. However, new processing steps or cooking protocols, namely flour proportions, temperature, cooking, and fermentation time, can allow adjusting production variables and optimization to potentially overcome the decrease in sensory quality and preserve consumer acceptance.
