How to make the best ice cream at home GOIAN, Ilinca This article delves into the essential components and methods that contribute to the superior ice cream quality. Crafting the perfect ice cream involves a delicate balance of ingredients, precise techniques, and an understanding of food science. The key factors include the optimal fat content, the role of stabilizers, the importance of controlling ice crystal formation, and the impact of ingredient quality. Additionally, factors such as overrun, the choice of sweeteners, the aging process of the base mixture, and the method of churning all play crucial roles in determining the texture, the flavor, and the mouthfeel. Flavor development is also enhanced by proper emulsification and maturation. This study will show that by integrating culinary practices with scientific principles, it is possible to make some exceptional homemade ice cream that can compete with artisanal and commercial standards.

Влияние различных подсластителей на гликемический индекс веганских конфет ДОДОН, Арина Данная работа исследует влияние различных подсластителей на гликемический индекс (ГИ) веганских конфет. Основное внимание уделяется натуральным, синтетическим и полиольным подсластителям, таким как стевия, эритритол, мальтит и мёд. Дополнительно оцениваются биохимические механизмы влияния подсластителей на метаболизм, инсулиновый ответ организма и состояние микрофлоры кишечника. Отдельное внимание уделено методике определения ГИ, основанной на международном стандарте ISO 26642:2010 и предусматривает применение экспериментального подхода с контрольными и тестовыми пробами.

Social media influence on adolescent eating outcomes MUNTEANU, Mihaela This study explores the complex relationship between social media use and adolescent eating behaviours, emphasizing both the risks and benefits presented by digital platforms. Adolescents are especially vulnerable to external influences, and social media has become a dominant environment shaping their opinions of food, body image, and dietary norms. The research highlights how exposure to food marketing, and idealized body standards on social media contributes to eating disorders, cravings, impulsivity, and body dissatisfaction. However, social media can also have a positive impact on teens when used responsibly. Online platforms can provide access to plausible nutrition education, encourage supportive health communities, and inspire healthy food choices through relatable and creative content.
