TED Studies, created in collaboration with Wiley, are curated video collections supplemented by rich educational materials for students, educators and self-guided learners. In Reworking the Western Diet, speakers examine how that diet processed, high in refined sugars, and heavy in corn, soy, meat and dairy is making us and the environment sick. These TED Talks blaze the trail to sustainable farming and a more sensible diet.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:
"Scientists have created a “super” sourdough that could help breadmakers and microbiome researchers alike answer long-standing questions, including how a sourdough’s microbial makeup might make it more stable than others. The team created their synthetic sourdough by pulling bacteria and yeast from 8 spontaneously formed sourdoughs from around the world. These microbes fulfilled two criteria: 1) they occurred in 4 of the 8 spontaneous sourdoughs, and 2) they harbored at least 20 key genes associated with metabolic pathways critical to maintaining sourdough quality, including the fermentation and breakdown of different sugars. Seven species (5 bacteria, 2 yeasts) met these criteria, forming a global sourdough labeled “SDG.” Scientists compared SDG with a synthetic sourdough (SMC-SD43) modeled after one of the original 8 spontaneous sourdoughs..."

Adding acidic ingredients is an important way to protect foods from dangerous …
Adding acidic ingredients is an important way to protect foods from dangerous toxins produced by organisms like C. botulinum, a microbe that is common and harmless in the environment but deadly when sealed with food in a jar. In the lab, testing the pH of a substance (how acidic or basic it is) provides important information for ensuring food safety. This module introduces users to proper sampling techniques when testing pH and explains how adjusting a food’s acidity can keep it safe from C. bot. Virtual Labs – Acidifying Salsa familiarizes the user with food science lab equipment and teaches standard techniques for sampling. The interactive animation guides the user through theory and practice of adjusting pH, so they will have familiarity with the equipment and procedures when encountered in a real lab.

The concept of water activity is important to food preservation. When water activity is less than 0.6, almost all microbes, including bacteria, molds, and yeasts, stop growing. Vegetables are usually dried even further, to water activity of 0.3 or 0.2, for quality and storage. Virtual Labs – Controlling Water Activity in Food explores a traditional method of preserving corn by drying. In this virtual laboratory, learners test water activity levels of dried corn and explore how they change under three different storage environments. The interactive animation guides users through the theory and practice of sampling a food product, using a water activity meter, and setting up replicates, to build familiarity with concepts and procedures used in real food science labs. Before beginning this lab, it may be useful to complete Virtual Labs – Understanding Water Activity.

Moist foods – like fresh fruit or raw meat – often have high water activity and spoil quickly. But some foods that seem moist – like jam or pepperoni – don’t spoil as quickly. Why is this? All living things need water to survive. Enzymes and chemical reactions also require water. If water activity is less than 0.6, almost all microbes, including bacteria, molds, and yeasts, stop growing. This means that food can be preserved against spoilage by lowering its water activity – whether by evaporating water away or binding it up. Virtual Labs – Understanding Water Activity familiarizes the user with food science lab equipment and standard techniques for measuring water activity. The interactive animation guides the user through both theory and practice, preparing them for experiences in a real lab. Complete this lab first, then follow up with Virtual Labs – Controlling Water Activity.

The main content covered in this unit includes the Structure and Function of the biological molecules, the energy flow and the nutrients, Nutritional Facts Labels, and the My Plate concept. Proteins, nucleic acids, polysaccharides in carbohydrates are considered macromolecules, and the lipid molecules are considered as biomolecules. For clarity purposes, proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and fats will be referred to as “biological molecules” throughout the unit. The history of studying these biological molecules dates back to the early 19th century. British physician-chemist, William Prout (1785-1850) was the first to classify “foodstuffs or ingredients of life into saccharinous (carbohydrates), oleaginous (fats), and albuminous (proteins)” and urged that “a satisfactory diet should include carbohydrates, fats, protein, and water”3. Carl Schmidt coined the term “carbohydrates” in 1844.
