Developing Food Products for Customers with Specific Dietary Needs
explains the process for developing foods for customers who have
specific dietary needs, further shining a light on the number of
increasing medical conditions related to food intake that have
emerged in the past few decades. From increased fat and sugar
intake leading to higher levels of obesity, to greater levels of
coeliac disease, the ingredients and nutritional content of food is
becoming more and more important. Additionally, consumers are
following particular diets for many different reasons, be it health
related, or for religious or moral reasons. The first part of the
book looks, in detail, at the organizational structure required
within a company to allow for the development of food products
which meet the needs of these customers, while the second part
presents a number of case studies highlighting the development of
food products for various dietary requirements. Precise coverage
includes section on the development of low-sodium, low-sugar,
low-fat, and low-carbohydrate products with the aim of producing
healthier foods, as well as the development of organic and
vegetarian products for consumers who are following diets for
personal reasons. The potential solutions for developing foods for
customers who have specific dietary needs are likely to include
both ingredients and technology developments. The ingredients area
includes simple reductions as well as replacement strategies,
whilst technology will be applied to both the ingredient itself and
the host food product. All are aimed at maintaining the product
quality as perceived by the customer.
