| Abstract | Gastrointestinal (GI) functions deteriorate with age, primarily affecting protein digestion. The consumption of chia seeds may be helpful for the elderly because they offer a vegetable-based source of proteins, healthy lipids, fibre and micronutrients. The impact of common age-related GI deterioration on chia seed digestibility was assessed using in vitro digestion models. The goal was to study the potential of chia seeds as part of the diet of seniors. Deterioration in the oral, gastric and intestinal stages of digestion was cumulatively assessed in three digestion models: E1 (deterioration in oral conditions), E2 (deterioration in oral and gastric conditions) and E3 (deterioration in oral, gastric and intestinal conditions). Less efficient chewing (E1) decreased proteolysis, lipolysis and antioxidant capacity (p < 0.05). In contrast, deterioration in gastric functions seemed to affect only total polyphenolic content. Finally, in the model simulating the greatest deterioration in digestive functions (E3), all measured variables were negatively affected (proteolysis, lipolysis, amino acid release, total phenolic content, antioxidant capacity and calcium). Calcium bioaccessibility fell by 24 % with a decrease in pancreatic enzymes and bile secretion (E3). Age-related reduced digestive function did not affect the ratio of essential to non-essential amino acids in the digested samples in any case. However, under suboptimal GI conditions (E3), amino acids such as valine, leucine and isoleucine, which are important for sarcopenia prevention in the elderly, fell by 39 %, 49 % and 44 %, respectively. These findings might be helpful for further in vitro studies of chia seeds as a possible food ingredient. They may also be useful for the development of more targeted nutrition strategies in the elderly. |
