Abstract: |
Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a well‐consumed tropical spice with many biological roles in folk medicine. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of partial substitution (2.5%, 5%, and 10%) of wheat flour with turmeric flour (TF) on the nutritional, antioxidant, antidiabetic, and oxidative stability of the muffins. The substitution led to significant (p <.05) increases in the bioactive components, antioxidant, and inhibitory properties of the muffins against α‐amylase and α‐glucosidase enzymes. Also, there was significant (p <.05) increase in the ash content from 3.18 to 5.87 g/100 g and fiber content from 2.11 to 2.48 g/100 g of the TF‐substituted muffins. There was significant decrease (p <.05) in estimated glycemic index from 51.68 to 46.30 and in vitro starch digestibility from 55.60 to 49.07 of the muffins, which was corresponding to the amount of TF inclusion. Oxidative stability was also enhanced in muffins produced from wheat‐turmeric flour blends. Therefore, turmeric flour could serve as functional and preservative ingredients in baking of muffins for the people suffering from diabetes mellitus. Novelty impact statement: Turmeric, a tropical spice with vast usage in folk medicine, was used to produce functional muffins. The supplemented muffins possessed enhanced antioxidant, antidiabetic, and oxidative stability properties. With these, turmeric may be adopted by industry to produce functional muffins for people suffering from diabetes and enhance the shelf life of muffins. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
