In many countries, carao has been utilized for therapeutic purposes since this type of plant extract can inhibit the growth against the most common dermatophytes, a pathogenic fungus that grows on the skin, mucous membranes, hair, nails, feathers, and other body surfaces, causing ringworm and related diseases. The physicochemical characteristics of the cookies were also investigated, which included aW, proximate analysis, hardness, and color. A sensory study was carried out to determine the rejection threshold, acceptability, purchase intent, and general taste of 90 consumers. The gluten-free cookies were prepared with carao honey as a partial substitute for rice flour in different percentages (0%, 2.5%, 5%, and 10%). The carao honey proximate composition, rheological properties, and pasting properties were analyzed. It was emphasized that incorporating carao honey into cookies improves the ingredient’s sustainability. The impact of carao on the physicochemical and sensory properties of cookies was evident in color, flavor, and smell. According to the results, only samples with 2.5% carao were accepted regarding flavor and smell. Overall, liking scores, age, and flavor were the most significant predictors of purchase intent. The information given to panelists did not significantly (<i>p</i> < 0.05) influence liking scores only for cookies. According to physicochemical analysis, carao honey flour was high in carbohydrates (88%). The incorporation of carao produced cookies with darker colors and a softer texture. The study demonstrated that carao flour could be included to produce sensorial accepted cookies at a 2.5% addition level as an alternative in the food industry that benefits from environmental sustainability and, at the nutritional level, improves the availability of nutrients, mainly sugars and proteins. <a href="/2076-3417/14/17/7502">Full article</a> </div> </div> <div class="belongsTo" style="margin-bottom: 10px;"> (This article belongs to the Special Issue <a href=" /journal/applsci/special_issues/33CYVFPWDV ">Topical Advisory Panel Members’ Collection Series: Functional Foods</a>)<br/> </div> <a href="#" class="abstract-figures-show" data-counterslink = "https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3417/14/17/7502/show" ><span >►</span><span style=" display: none;">▼</span> Show Figures </a><div class="abstract-image-preview "><div class="arrow left-arrow" id="prev1463502"><i class="fa fa-caret-left"></i></div><div class="arrow right-arrow" id="next1463502"><i class="fa fa-caret-right"></i></div><div class="absgraph cycle-slideshow manual" data-cycle-fx="scrollHorz" data-cycle-timeout="0" data-cycle-next="#next1463502" data-cycle-prev="#prev1463502" data-cycle-progressive="#images1463502" data-cycle-slides=">div" data-cycle-log="false"><div class='openpopupgallery cycle-slide' data-imgindex='0' data-target='article-1463502-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAD/ACwAAAAAAQABAAACADs=" data-src="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/applsci/applsci-14-07502/article_deploy/html/images/applsci-14-07502-g001-550.jpg?1724559117" alt="" style="border: 0;"><p>Figure 1</p></div><script id="images1463502" type="text/cycle" data-cycle-split="---"><div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='1' data-target='article-1463502-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/applsci/applsci-14-07502/article_deploy/html/images/applsci-14-07502-g002-550.jpg?1724559119'><p>Figure 2</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='2' data-target='article-1463502-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/applsci/applsci-14-07502/article_deploy/html/images/applsci-14-07502-g003-550.jpg?1724559120'><p>Figure 3</p></div></script></div></div><div id="article-1463502-popup" class="popupgallery" style="display: inline; line-height: 200%"><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/applsci/applsci-14-07502/article_deploy/html/images/applsci-14-07502-g001-550.jpg?1724559117" title=" <strong>Figure 1</strong><br/> <p>Flowchart of carao honey process.</p> <strong style='display: block; margin-top: 10px; font-size: 18px;'><a style='color: #fff' href='/2076-3417/14/17/7502'>Full article</a></strong> "></a><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/applsci/applsci-14-07502/article_deploy/html/images/applsci-14-07502-g002-550.jpg?1724559119" title=" <strong>Figure 2</strong><br/> <p>Viscosity profiles of rice flours determined by RVA.

The Mediterranean Diet (MD) and Mediterranean Lifestyle (MEDILIFE) are well known for their beneficial effects on health. Psychological Resilience (PsyR) is not only an important factor in human well-being; it is also regarded as a key indicator of mental health. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between NFFs and the MD and MEDILIFE in Greece, as well as their association with PsyR and other health-related parameters. In a cross-sectional design, 338 healthy adults participated voluntarily in an online research survey. There was a statistically significant association between the consumption of NFFs grown and produced in the Mediterranean region and the MD and MEDILIFE (<i>p</i> < 0.001). When the MD and MEDILIFE associated NFFs scores were summed up to form a 10-item scale (NAFFAME), the NAFFAME had a statistically significant positive correlation with PsyR (<i>p</i> < 0.001) and sleep quality (<i>p</i> < 0.05) and a negative correlation with body mass index (<i>p</i> < 0.001). There was also a statistically significant difference (<i>p</i> < 0.05) between the means of the NAFFAME score on different weight loss diet outcomes. Multinomial regression analysis identified the NAFFAME score as a prognostic factor in maintaining weight loss after a diet (OR: 1.119, 95% CI: 1.035, 1.208, <i>p</i> < 0.01 compared with no weight loss). This study identified NFFs as a part of the MD and MEDILIFE. NFFs linked to the MEDILIFE could help predict the outcome of a weight loss diet and appear to have a positive effect on PsyR, sleep quality, and maintaining a healthy weight. Thus, the consumption of NFFs grown and produced in the Mediterranean region could be a natural, healthy, and sustainable way of enhancing physical–mental health. Randomised controlled trials should be conducted to confirm the findings of this cross-sectional study. <a href="/2076-3417/13/7/4076">Full article</a> </div> </div> <div class="belongsTo" style="margin-bottom: 10px;"> (This article belongs to the Special Issue <a href=" /journal/applsci/special_issues/33CYVFPWDV ">Topical Advisory Panel Members’ Collection Series: Functional Foods</a>)<br/> </div> <a href="#" class="abstract-figures-show" data-counterslink = "https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3417/13/7/4076/show" ><span >►</span><span style=" display: none;">▼</span> Show Figures </a><div class="abstract-image-preview "><div class="arrow left-arrow" id="prev1104814"><i class="fa fa-caret-left"></i></div><div class="arrow right-arrow" id="next1104814"><i class="fa fa-caret-right"></i></div><div class="absgraph cycle-slideshow manual" data-cycle-fx="scrollHorz" data-cycle-timeout="0" data-cycle-next="#next1104814" data-cycle-prev="#prev1104814" data-cycle-progressive="#images1104814" data-cycle-slides=">div" data-cycle-log="false"><div class='openpopupgallery cycle-slide' data-imgindex='0' data-target='article-1104814-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAD/ACwAAAAAAQABAAACADs=" data-src="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/applsci/applsci-13-04076/article_deploy/html/images/applsci-13-04076-g001-550.jpg?1679970179" alt="" style="border: 0;"><p>Figure 1</p></div><script id="images1104814" type="text/cycle" data-cycle-split="---"><div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='1' data-target='article-1104814-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/applsci/applsci-13-04076/article_deploy/html/images/applsci-13-04076-g002-550.jpg?1679970182'><p>Figure 2</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='2' data-target='article-1104814-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/applsci/applsci-13-04076/article_deploy/html/images/applsci-13-04076-g003-550.jpg?1679970180'><p>Figure 3</p></div></script></div></div><div id="article-1104814-popup" class="popupgallery" style="display: inline;

Uncommon oilseed plants, such as safflower (<i>Carthamus tinctorius</i> L.), camelina (<i>Camelina sativa</i> L.), and black cumin (<i>Nigella sativa</i> L.), have been gaining increasing attention. The unique chemical compositions of these plants, which contribute to potential health benefits, underscore the importance of further exploration and study. The continuation of development of research in this field, resulting in the well-documented positive impact of these plants on human health, may lead to the possibility of them becoming new functional foods in the future. This review aims to present the potential health-promoting properties of the aforementioned uncommon oilseed plants based on recent literature reports and intends to inspire further exploration of their unique features. Among others, recent reports on the anticancer, antioxidant, and antibacterial potential, as well as the preventive potential in the case of metabolic diseases of these plants, were discussed. The importance of further development of these problems was also emphasized. <a href="/2076-3417/14/19/8843">Full article</a> </div> </div> <div class="belongsTo" style="margin-bottom: 10px;"> (This article belongs to the Special Issue <a href=" /journal/applsci/special_issues/33CYVFPWDV ">Topical Advisory Panel Members’ Collection Series: Functional Foods</a>)<br/> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row footer"> <div class="listing-select-options"> <div class="columns small-12"> <div class="select generic-item"> <a href="#" class="export-options-show export-element export-expanded"> Show export options <i class="material-icons">expand_more</i> </a> <a href="#" class="export-options-show export-element"> Show export options <i class="material-icons">expand_less</i> </a> </div> <div class="listing-export-options export-element"> <div class="export-element" style="margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"> <input type="checkbox" class="selector selectUnselectAll bb-checkbox" id="selectUnselectAll" data-select-all="article-listing"> <div class="indented bb-indented"> Select all </div> </div> <div class="indented1"> <span style="display: inline-block; margin-right: 15px; margin-bottom: 10px;">Export citation of selected articles as:</span> <br class="show-for-medium-down" /> <div class="listing-export"> <select class="chosen-select inline" name="format_bottom"> <option value="plaintext"> Plain Text </option> <option value="bibtex"> BibTeX </option> <option value="bibtex_no_abstract"> BibTeX (without abstracts) </option> <option value="endnote"> Endnote </option> <option value="endnote_no_abstract"> Endnote (without abstracts) </option> <option value="tab_delimited"> Tab-delimited </option> <option value="ris"> RIS </option> </select> </div> <input type="submit" value="Export" class="articleBrowserSubmit button button--color-inversed" id="articleBrowserExport_bottom"> </div> <div style="border-top: 1px solid #ededed; height: 5px; margin-top: 15px;">   </div> </div> <a id="link-export-modal-nothing-selected" data-reveal-id="export-modal-nothing-selected" style="display: none;"></a> <div id="export-modal-nothing-selected" class="reveal-modal reveal-modal-new reveal-modal-new--small" data-reveal aria-labelledby="modalTitle" aria-hidden="true" role="dialog"> <div class="row"> <div class="small-12 columns"> <h2>Error</h2> Oops... you haven't selected anything for export. </div> <div class="small-12 columns"> <a class="button button--color" onclick="$(this).closest('.reveal-modal-new').foundation('reveal', 'close'); return false;">Ok</a> </div> </div> <a class="close-reveal-modal" aria-label="Close"> <i class="material-icons">clear</i> </a> </div> </div> <div> <div class="columns large-12 medium-12 small-12"> Displaying articles 1-3 </div> <div style="clear: both"></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </form> </div> <span data-special-issue-id="149800"></span> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> <div id="footer"> <div class="journal-info"> <span> <em><a class="Var_JournalInfo" href="/journal/applsci">Appl.
