recommendations! Published in 2021 at "Food Hydrocolloids"

DOI: 10.1016/j.foodhyd.2020.106277

Abstract: Abstract Starch represents the main source of carbohydrates in human diet and its digestibility is suspected to be involved in the control of glycemic response. The low glycemic index caused by pastas is mainly attributed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2017.04.007

Abstract: Abstract Forest mastication treatments are increasingly utilized by land managers as a means of reducing tree cover for fire hazard mitigation and other habitat objectives in pinon-juniper (P-J) woodlands. Mastication converts trees into small pieces… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.rama.2018.04.008

Abstract: ABSTRACT Mechanical cutting and mastication of juniper trees aims to restore grassland habitat by reducing the density of encroaching woody species. However, the associated soil disturbance may also create conduits for invasive species, a risk… read more here.

DOI: 10.1071/wf20157

Abstract: Mechanical mastication is growing in popularity as a wildfire mitigation technique. Yet few studies quantify its effects on fire behaviour. Such information is needed by fire managers to evaluate its efficacy. Our aim was to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/forsci/fxy066

Abstract: The contemporary decline of open woodlands in the eastern United States has prompted land managers to implement management prescriptions that encourage landscape and habitat diversity, often using mechanical thinning and prescribed fire as tools to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/sleep/zsaa056.206

Abstract: Sustained attention is important for optimal neurobehavioral performance, but many biological and environment factors (e.g., circadian rhythm, distraction) may cause sustained attention deficits. Mastication (chewing) has been suggested to provide a countermeasure to sustained attention… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tnsre.2025.3535681

Abstract: Mastication plays an important role in effective food digestion and nutrient absorption. Therefore, regulating masticatory force in people with declining mastication function is significant for maintaining health and quality of life. In this study, we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/joor.13526

Abstract: BACKGROUND Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are characterized by pain and impaired masticatory functions. The Integrated Pain Adaptation Model (IPAM) predicts that alterations in motor activity may be associated with increased pain in some individuals. The IPAM… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/joor.13935

Abstract: INTRODUCTION Recent studies have shown that capsaicin improves the pharyngeal swallowing reflex. However, the mechanism by which capsaicin alters mastication and oesophageal function remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effects of capsaicin on… read more here.
