ICMR-INDIAB Analysis: Macronutrient Reprioritization for Metabolic Risk Mitigation in India ICMR-INDIAB Analysis: Macronutrient Reprioritization for Metabolic Risk Mitigation in India Abstract This technical brief summarizes and applies the critical findings from the Indian Council of Medical Research–India Diabetes (ICMR–INDIAB) survey regarding the national dietary profile and its association with Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs), specifically Type 2 Diabetes (T2D), prediabetes, and obesity. The analysis reveals that the average Indian diet is characterized by an excessive energy contribution from low-quality carbohydrates (62% E), suboptimal protein intake (12% E), and high levels of saturated fat. Utilizing isocaloric substitution modeling, the study conclusively demonstrates that replacing a minimal percentage of carbohydrate energy (5% E) with plant or dairy proteins is associated with a sign...

New tech in Refrigeration: VAPOR ADSORPTION SYSTEM

Image
Hi all, In this post I will tell you about a new tech that is coming up adsorption refrigeration (not absorption) INTRODUCTION The conventional air conditioning system in automobiles uses a compressor to deliver the vapour refrigerant at high temperature to the condenser unit. The compressor derives its power from the engine itself. The cooling effect is produced by the sub cooling of the refrigerant in the condenser. Conventional vapor compression refrigeration systems, however, have a number of shortcomings which make it unviable in automobiles and there is a need for a better alternative. One of the alternatives being developed at present is adsorption refrigeration system. Adsorption is the phenomenon in which, the gas molecules (adsorbate) in the adsorbing pair gets deposited on the solid (adsorbent) surface. This is an exothermic process. Adsorption refrigeration system uses the process of adsorption-desorption and the thermodynamics associated with it to create t...
