Proteins: Sustainable Source, Processing and Applications addresses
sustainable proteins, with an emphasis on proteins of animal
origin, plant-based and insect proteins, microalgal single cell
proteins, extraction, production, the stability and bioengineering
of proteins, food applications (e.g. encapsulation, films and
coatings), consumer behavior and sustainable consumption. Written
in a scientific manner to meet the needs of chemists, food
scientists, technologists, new product developers and academics,
this book addresses the health effects and properties of proteins,
highlights sustainable sources, processes and consumption models,
and analyzes the potentiality of already commercialized processes
and products. This book is an integral resource that supports the
current applications of proteins in the food industry, along with
those that are currently under development.

While yoga was originally intended to be practiced for spiritual
growth, there is an increasing interest in applying yoga in all
areas of life. It is important to understand this ancient science
and way of life through as many perspectives as possible (e.g.,
based on biomedical engineering). As its popularity and interest
grows, more practitioners want to know about the proven
physiological effects and uses in healthcare. Evidence-Based
Perspectives on the Psychophysiology of Yoga and Its Applications
provides research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects
of yoga therapy and its physiological effects from diverse,
evidence-based viewpoints. The book adds in-depth information
regarding the (1) physiological effects of yoga; (2)
neurobiological effects of yoga meditation; (3) psychological
benefits related to yoga, such as mental wellbeing; (4) molecular
changes associated with yoga practice; and (5) therapeutic
applications (for lymphedema, mental health disorders,
non-communicable diseases, attention deficit hyperactivity
disorder, and trauma, among other conditions). Featuring coverage
on a broad range of topics such as pain management, psychotherapy,
and trauma treatment, this book is ideally designed for yoga
practitioners, physicians, medical professionals, health experts,
mental health professionals, therapists, counselors, psychologists,
spiritual leaders, academicians, researchers, and students.
