This research aims to study the formulation in the manufacture of cookies enriched with prebiotics Xylo - oligosaccharides as functional food for the health of the autism digestive tract. This research design using complete randomized design. Selected formula was determined by the ability to grow lactic acid bacteria, fiber, and organoleptic test results. The main materials used were kepok bananas, corn flour, and prebiotic Xylo - oligosaccharides (XOS) which safe for the gluten free casein free diet (GFCF). Selected cookies using the main ingredient in the form of banana flour by 67 grams and 33 grams of corn flour with the addition of 5% XOS prebiotic ingredients. Serving size of the selected prebiotic cookies was 50 grams. Selected prebiotik cookies were able to meet 15.4 % of energy needs, 2.3 % of protein needs, 19,1% of fat needs, and 36.5% of carbohydrat needs. Selected prebiotic cookies could meet the claims of 'contains fiber'. Estimates of the price of cookies per serving size was Rp9 091. 91.

Recent research in the food industry has focused on the pro- duction and development of functional foods with health benefit and safe for consumption and one of such development is the production of gluten-free products. Sorghum, a gluten-free cereal, has been used in the production of sorghum gluten-free products (SGFPs) like bread and other baked products, infant foods, noodles, and beer for gluten intolerant people. This article reviews the studies carried out in the past few years in relation to the production of SGFPs and their overall nutritional value and quality.

The present mini-review states and discusses the current situation on dietary strategies in gluten intolerance, a potential target for managing Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs), by analyzing particularly new approaches based on personalized probiotic supplements. Such multifunctional “good” bacteria appear innovative for remedying discomfort consequences of gluten ingestion by providing at once nutritional, preventive or/and therapeutic solutions.

The purpose of this study was to determine if substituting 0% to 75% quinoa flour (QF) for rice flour would yield an acceptable and nutritious gluten-free apple-blueberry flavored muffin. Analyses included planimeter area measurements of muffin cross-sections, penetrometer tenderness measurements, spectrophotometer color measurements, and sensory evaluations from 51 untrained panelists. As QF increased, area increased, tenderness decreased, crusts became redder, and crumbs became less red. On average, the 0% to 50% QF samples rated with favorable sensory attributes. Results of this study show it may be feasible to substitute up to 50% QF for rice flour in apple-blueberry gluten-free muffins.

Chorea is a rare neurological manifestation of coeliac disease. A 35-year-old male presented with a nine month history of chorea, starting from the right little finger and spreading over the next few months to involve the right upper and lower limbs. History and physical examination were not suggestive of an underlying cause. CT scan and MRI scan did not reveal any structural abnormality. Levels of serum IgA anti- tissue transglutaminase antibodies were very high (396EU/ml). Duodenoscopy and duodenal histology were normal. Marked symptomatic improvement was seen with gluten free diet, along with disappearance of anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies. Chorea can occur as an atypical manifestation of coeliac disease. This possibility must be kept in mind when the cause of chorea is not easily identifiable.

Gluten derived from wheat and related triticeae cereals possesses distinct amino acid sequences that provoke the immunopathogenic features of celiac disease (CD) in genetically susceptible individuals. However, the role of oat-derived gluten, or avenins, in CD pathogenesis remains a disputed matter, as evidenced by a lack in harmonized legislation regarding gluten classification in relation to gluten-free labeling. In this study, we have analyzed a panel of pure oat cultivars using a sandwich ELISA based on the R5 monoclonal antibody (mAb), which binds to canonical epitopes occurring within celiagenic peptides present in triticeae-derived gluten but reportedly not present in avenins. We have identified three varieties of oats that reproducibly bind R5 antibodies and levels indicating the presence of gluten at more than the 20 ppm gluten regulatory threshold. Nested assessment using Western blot analysis and alternative gluten detection systems corroborated these results. Collectively, these data suggest that select oat varieties may prove problematic to patients with CD and to food companies and regulatory agencies and will extend our basic understanding of current gluten detection systems.

Probiotic-based diet supplementations are among potential treatments of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) because of the existing gut microbiota profile-mental health. In order to conceive a personalized probiotic supplement to a specified autistic adult, the fecal microbiota of his neurotypical father, mother and sister, have been analyzed and compared. The latest 16S rRNA technology was used for microbial determination at species level (Mymicrozoo analysis, The Netherlands). Less microbiota diversity and an uncommon higher Streptococcus/Lactobacillus abundance ratio were revealed in the autistic adult compared to his relatives. These results were discussed in relation to his digestive issues.
