Having thus established that an extra temperature transmitter for the headspace leads to useful possibilities, we now move in the direction of developing the mathematical equation with instantaneous IV on the LHS. The fulcrum of such a development is the density of the reaction mixture which eventually leads to quantification - [Post #47: Adaptating the commercial reactor for research Part I - How imagination midwifes innovation: Headspace gas quantification](https://letfoodliftlife.com/post-47-adaptating-the-commercial-reactor-for-research-part-i-how-imagination-midwifes-innovation-headspace-gas-quantification/) - An introduction to simple thinking and high achieving We all know how a 360 degree view of anything reveals the detailed features of that thing that a single glance cannot. It turns out that such an approach can be applied to the headspace in the reactor when it is in the middle of the reaction - [Post #46: The treatment of hydrogenation kinetics in mainstream literature - Well-meant simplifications complicate the narrative and are unclassical](https://letfoodliftlife.com/post-46-the-treatment-of-hydrogenation-kinetics-in-mainstream-literature-well-meant-simplifications-complicate-the-narrative-and-are-unclassical/) - The ocean of literature created as a result of ‘research’ in hydrogenation of edible oils for food uses is daunting. We had a glimpse of a purposeful version of that in post no. 42, Hydrogenation of edible oils for food uses : How it evolved and where it stands today. However, research in a resourceful - [Post # 45: Technology of hydrogenation of edible oils for food uses – V : Complexity of the reaction, its implications and applications](https://letfoodliftlife.com/post-45-technology-of-hydrogenation-of-edible-oils-for-food-uses-v-complexity-of-the-reaction-its-implications-and-applications/) - Why is hydrogenation of oils so complex as a reaction? All the usual ‘ingredients’ (and more!) making industrially conducted reactions complex are present: Series reactions: Where the product of a reaction is the reactant for another (in this case, similar) reaction. Linoleic acid (9, 12 - cis,cis) → Oleic acid (9 - cis) →Stearic acid - [Post # 44: Technology of hydrogenation of edible oils for food uses – IV : The present status of the technology and its products](https://letfoodliftlife.com/post-44-technology-of-hydrogenation-of-edible-oils-for-food-uses-iv-the-present-status-of-the-technology-and-its-products/) - After enjoying popularity as a purposeful oil modification technique for decades, nature ultimately caught up with man’s audacity in changing the nature of edible oils thru hydrogenation.

As already noted, it immediately got complicated because of the immense variety in body types and, within each, variables like environmental factors, heredity, pre-existing - [Ensuring healthy edible oil consumption : Part Ib-The remaining miscellaneous aspects of oil consumption](https://letfoodliftlife.com/ensuring-healthy-edible-oil-consumption-part-ib-the-remaining-miscellaneous-aspects-of-oil-consumption/) - Here are details of just how Geeta estimates her total visible oil consumption at home thru calculation of depletion of her stocks which, being mathematical, is reliable and relatable. But apportioning that total quantity to individual members is a delicious challenge. A couple of comparable real life parallels: 1. How to allocate your net income - [Ensuring healthy edible oil consumption: Part I(a) Estimating each family member’s actual consumption](https://letfoodliftlife.com/ensuring-healthy-edible-oil-consumption-part-ia-estimating-each-family-members-actual-consumption/) - The utility of even approximate individual oil consumption: Expectedly, it is difficult to accurately calculate consumption of oils in terms of quantities by individual members of the family. Undaunted, we have worked out the modalities of closely estimating it given its importance. Oil/fat consumption is an important dietary determinant of an individual’s physiological-analytical parameters like - [Selecting specific oils for specific cooking And how best to do it practically](https://letfoodliftlife.com/selecting-specific-oils-for-specific-cooking-and-how-best-to-do-it-practically/) - We now understand that oils are our friends if we have insights in their nature as cooking media. Obviously, smart coking with oils must start with using the right oil in every cooking episode. As a refresher, the following conditions must be met concurrently for that: The oils should not be altered harmfully during cooking - [How to select oils for each cooking mode?: General Considerations](https://letfoodliftlife.com/how-to-select-oils-for-each-cooking-mode-general-considerations/) - How Indian domestic cooking with edible oils is different: In the last post, we noted how industry treats edible oils for its product offerings which is different from what we do at home. HoReCa and organized, billed distribution of ready-to-eats understandably have cooking features borrowed from the industry and domestic cooking. They also have some - [Par frying: an interesting industrial mode of frying And some interesting industrial edible oil products](https://letfoodliftlife.com/par-frying-an-interesting-industrial-mode-of-frying-and-some-interesting-industrial-edible-oil-products/) - Though the essential similarities between domestic cooking with oils and industrial processing are obvious, it would be surprising if the industry didn’t do anything different beyond scale, continuous processes and automation. That is indeed the case: Industry uses them more technically with emphasis on cost, conservation, compliance with law and suitability for each process. Industry - [Cooking with edible oils: Part II, Cooking thru oil-mediated heat transfer](https://letfoodliftlife.com/cooking-with-edible-oils-part-ii-cooking-thru-oil-mediated-heat-transfer/) - Oil and water as cooking media – nature’s amazing scheme: Oils and water are the only two liquids in our food-life against a slew of solids. The comparison between ‘boiling in water’ and ‘frying in oil’ has been touched upon in the last post. The divergent characteristics of water and edible oils hide an amazing - [Cooking with edible oils: Part I, Oils as cooking ingredients and dish accompaniments](https://letfoodliftlife.com/cooking-with-edible-oils-part-i-oils-as-cooking-ingredients-and-dish-accompaniments/) - Cooking: general and oil-mediated – an overview: Our cooking modes are any one or a combination of some of the following: Cooking by boiling is essentially heating food in direct contact with water, e.g. rice, khichadi, Rajasthani gatte. Par-boiling of potatoes, blanching of tomatoes and spinach and cooking of kheers, porridges, firni, chickpea flour mass - [A preview of the next 11 posts on edible oils: Everything you ever wanted to know and where to find it](https://letfoodliftlife.com/a-preview-of-the-next-11-posts-on-edible-oils-everything-you-ever-wanted-to-know-and-where-to-find-it/) - Introduction: Edible oils have a tainted, distorted and misinformed image in our life. It probably stems from their wide-spread association with heart disease, obesity and diabetes and vaguely accepted association with illness in general. A detailed case has already been made about their necessity in our life. This creates a dire need for an exhaustive - [Cancer – the scary scourge: Food abuse can cause it, smart food can prevent it ](https://letfoodliftlife.com/cancer-the-scary-scourge-food-abuse-can-cause-it-smart-food-can-prevent-it/) - Cancer is autonomous, uncontrolled and limitless proliferation of cells at any location in the body that grows by attacking surrounding tissue and spreads (‘metastasizes’) to other tissues and organs. It can be caused by a large number of factors but generally, a change in the immediate, in-contact environment of any part of the body (e.g. - [Dealing with diabetes thru diet - Avoiding, stalling, reversing and living with diabetes using food](https://letfoodliftlife.com/dealing-with-diabetes-thru-diet-avoiding-stalling-reversing-and-living-with-diabetes-using-food/) - An overview causes and remedies of diabetes: Unless you are (i) hereditarily predisposed, (ii) determinedly obese, (iii) averse to physical exertion, (iv) given to frequent or extended bouts of emotional events and (v) obsessively fond of fatty-sugary sweets (it is difficult to consistently burn away such a calorie load in today’s times), you can certainly - [Diabetes – the creeping, corrosive curse (But food, lifestyle and even attitude can help!)](https://letfoodliftlife.com/diabetes-the-creeping-corrosive-curse-but-food-lifestyle-and-even-attitude-can-help/) - (This post became large as it needed to be coherent and complete; do stay with it). We saw obesity as a rampant chronic condition that creeps up on us thru a series of factors and is measurably reflected in our BMI. (Ref. post 21, Obesity and food - accumulation of the unused: Part I, Understanding - [Blood pressure and hypertension - Their nature, origin, effects and remedies with focus on food](https://letfoodliftlife.com/blood-pressure-and-hypertension-their-nature-origin-effects-and-remedies-with-focus-on-food/) - "I have BP", has become a damning and, unfortunately, a common confession. Ironically, life is possible only because blood has pressure which sends the blood to the nooks and corners of the body. What we shouldn’t have is hypertension or excessive BP. What is pressure? It is the force exerted by a fluid (liquids and - [Matters of the heart - Coronary Arterial Disease (Part II) : How it happens and how food and lifestyle can help](https://letfoodliftlife.com/matters-of-the-heart-coronary-arterial-disease-part-ii-how-it-happens-and-how-food-and-lifestyle-can-help/) - Notes: 1. Do go back frequently to the previous post for reference. 2. As always, this post uses basic science and technology to simplify anatomical and physiological complexities thru ‘models’.

Remembering this ‘model’ or simplification will help.) How food sustains life, an overview: An average office-going Indian adult needs about 2000 calories per day to enable him - [Obesity and food – accumulation of the unused: Part I (Understanding obesity)](https://letfoodliftlife.com/obesity-and-food-accumulation-of-the-unused-part-i-understanding-obesity/) - (This spell of posts stems from our desire to make you familiar with the origin of some of the mainstream disease conditions and point out that only flawed food can play a partial role in causing them; smart food can actually help keep them at bay. Do read and re-read them; you will be rewarded - [Let food lift life! - Health and happiness are your right, so exercise it!](https://letfoodliftlife.com/let-food-lift-life-health-and-happiness-are-your-right-so-exercise-it/) - In the previous two posts, we have seen how the feared and hated edible oils do so much for us when used smartly and can actually be life-saving. They are less insidious than sugar and salt, less compulsively used, consumed in larger quantities and their physical and physiological functionalities and pathogenic mechanisms are different. But - [The physiological functions of edible oils - They do a lot for us within our body](https://letfoodliftlife.com/the-physiological-functions-of-edible-oils-they-do-a-lot-for-us-within-our-body/) - The edible oils perform multiple cooking/processing roles: as food constituents, as cooking/processing aids (which also makes them a part of the food) and as value-adders to consumption experience. That is how they reach our stomach. Their physiological role begins when they reach the blood after digestion into fatty acids and glycerol and the release of - [Edible oils have many roles outside our body - The non-physiological functionalities of edible oils](https://letfoodliftlife.com/edible-oils-have-many-roles-outside-our-body-the-non-physiological-functionalities-of-edible-oils/) - First, let’s dispel some common misconceptions about oils. The undeserved bad image of edible oils: Given the rampant prevalence of diabetes, everyone is wary of sugar. We can’t seem to cook anything non-sweet (except roti and rice) without salt, which is probably why we are reluctant to dwell over its serious dark side – why - [Edible oils: an introduction - The multi-faceted personality of our cooking oils](https://letfoodliftlife.com/edible-oils-an-introduction-the-multi-faceted-personality-of-our-cooking-oils/) - (Refer Post 2: HEALTH, HAPPINESS, LIFE AND FOOD (PART I) : WHAT ARE THEY?

It is practically everywhere; even in water in small quantities. 2. It owes its properties, life-sustaining ones included, to its reactivity. 3. It can be indiscriminate in its reactivity i.e. it will not spare anything crossing its path under the right conditions. 4. Its presence is not - [Water, food and life, Part II : The remaining facets of water](https://letfoodliftlife.com/water-food-and-life-part-ii-the-remaining-facets-of-water/) - THE PHYSIOLOGICAL ROLE The role of water in digestion of food: Starch, the most abundant natural nutritive carbohydrate in our food, breaks down into simpler glucose in our digestive tract with the help of water and enzymes generically called amylases. (Amylose = starch, ‘ase’ indicates ‘ability to breakdown’). Such water-mediated chemical breakdown is called ‘hydrolysis’ - [Water, food and life, Part I: ‘Jeevan’ in Sanskrit, water has a dark side to it.](https://letfoodliftlife.com/water-food-and-life-part-i-jeevan-in-sanskrit-water-has-a-dark-side-to-it/) - We have grown up grasping the many facets of water and air; they are everywhere, life is impossible without them and they are in awe-inspiring abundance. Ironically, they happen to be two of the most abused materials in life with the result that they are getting polluted at an alarming rate. Despite their abundance, many - [Popular processed food categories: an overview And some practical avoid-adopt advice](https://letfoodliftlife.com/popular-processed-food-categories-an-overview-and-some-practical-avoid-adopt-advice/) - Nature’s gifts to us like fruits, vegetables, spices, grains and cereals, legumes and lentils etc are taken for granted both as inherently safe, barring unwanted crop protection chemicals on them. We have to accept them as they come and make them safe thru our homely precautions. Processed foods can be classified in many ways; their - [Indian consumer and processed foods - Diversity meets diversity!](https://letfoodliftlife.com/indian-consumer-and-processed-foods-diversity-meets-diversity/) - Recently, during a delightful 45 days in the downtown area of a graceful American city, we frequented an all-in-one food store for our fresh and processed food requirements. Among them were several loaves of various types of sliced bread and, to my delight, each well-made loaf stayed fresh for over 10 days, taking considerable cooking - [Cost-benefit analysis of cooking with milk powder: Introducing the environmental cost of food processing](https://letfoodliftlife.com/cost-benefit-analysis-of-cooking-with-milk-powder-introducing-the-environmental-cost-of-food-processing/) - Present times demand being cost-conscious and hence cost-effective in all our endeavours. Milk powder is obviously costlier than equivalent milk and hence its potential as ‘milk on the shelf, in emergency’ would be questionable, especially in these times of easy and immediate availability of fluid milk. But the devil is often in the detail. Introduction: - [Health, happiness, life and food (Part I) : What are they?](https://letfoodliftlife.com/health-happiness-life-and-food-part-i-what-are-they/) - Have you noticed that many things that we are totally familiar with and experience all the time are abstract and difficult to define? Life, health, happiness, beauty, imagination and technology are some examples, and several definitions – all valid, but imperfect – are possible. A lot like √2 as a number. Sanskrit literature has a - [Some compelling cases for food processing: Part III, Dried Milks](https://letfoodliftlife.com/some-compelling-cases-for-food-processing-part-iii-dried-milks/) - A case for any processing becomes ‘compelling’ when its advantages far outweigh its disadvantages. In fact, processing of all kinds has expanded simply by picking such cases of large value-addition, enhancing it further and mitigating the negatives. Improving the standard of living of millions of farmers spread all over India thru increased milk production by - [Some compelling cases for food processing : Part II, A brief history of milk processing in India and dried dairy wheys](https://letfoodliftlife.com/some-compelling-cases-for-food-processing-part-ii-a-brief-history-of-milk-processing-in-india-and-dried-dairy-wheys/) - Milk has always had the image of a near-complete food which obviously rubs off on its products – plain, fermented, fractionated, sweet. Hence its processing – whether to make products from it or simply to preserve it for future convenient use – has inherent merit. Here we talk about dried dairy wheys – also called - [Some compelling cases for food processing: Part I, Fruits and Vegetables](https://letfoodliftlife.com/some-compelling-cases-for-food-processing-part-i-fruits-and-vegetables/) - For a case for any processing to become ‘compelling’, the advantages have to far outweigh the disadvantages. The processing has to be qualitatively so overwhelmingly beneficial that the quantification – always difficult and dicey – becomes redundant. In the next three posts, we talk about three India-specific compelling cases. Improving ‘net advantage’ of processing thru - [Industrial Processed Foods: Part I, Their evolution and present status](https://letfoodliftlife.com/industrial-food-processing-part-i-their-evolution-and-present-status/) - We use the following types of cooking inputs: Nature’s gifts like fruits, vegetables, green spices and lemon, oilseeds etc. – unprocessed when bought. Minimally processed inputs like cereals (e.g. wheat) and millets (e.g. pearl millet or bajra), lentils or pulses (daals), legumes and beans (kathol), dry whole spices etc. Processed inputs like salt, sugar, cooking - [Industrial processed foods: Part III, The dark side of processing – a case for cautious consumption](https://letfoodliftlife.com/industrial-processed-foods-part-iii-the-dark-side-of-processing-a-case-for-cautious-consumption/) - Preamble: Food processing aims to make food more shelf-stable, tastier, safer, digestible and nutritionally more available. It also helps plug demand-supply gaps across geographies thru transportability. Beyond population increase, these real positives are making it expand continuously. Additionally, it provides employment on a large scale (as all manufacturing tends to do) and earns revenue for - [Industrial processed foods: Part II, Novel uses of routine products and specialized processes](https://letfoodliftlife.com/industrial-processed-foods-part-ii-novel-uses-of-routine-products-and-specialized-processes/) - Food processing would not have been a multi-billion dollar industry worldwide (and growing) if its products did not serve largely real consumer needs. Obviously, all food processing is not essential and some of it is actually undesirable. A lot of it has nevertheless become a part of our lives. The entrenched role of processed foods - [Quality life thru food is an idea whose time has come](https://letfoodliftlife.com/quality-life-thru-food-is-an-idea-whose-time-has-come/) - We are all destined to have only one life and it is always better with health and happiness in it.
