| Abstract | ||||
| The present study aimed to produce nutritional and acceptable crackers enrichment with flaxseeds, beetroot powder and their mixture and examined the sensory, chemical and biological evaluation of cracker samples. Also, the biological study was carried out on obese anemic rats fed on 100% crackers after feeding rats on a high-fat diet and flowed by injection by phenylhydrazine to induce anemic. Sensory evaluation showed that all crackers are acceptable. The chemical composition and biological study are done on crackers containing 0%, 15% flaxseeds, 30% beetroot and 15% flaxseeds and +30% beetroot. The result showed that enriched crackers with flaxseeds, beetroot powder and their mixture caused a significant increase in fiber, ash, phenolic, flavonoids contents and antioxidant value. Besides feeding obese anemic rats on cracker samples contaning 0%, 15% flaxseeds, 30% beetroot and 15% flaxseeds +30% beetroot led to a significant decrease in body weight, lipid profile, glucose and liver enzymes as compared to the positive control group. In addition, the group fed on 15% flaxseeds +30% beetroot has the best evaluation compared to the other groups. This result is due to the contents of beetroot and flaxseeds as minerals, vitamins, fiber, flavonoids and phytochemicals that enhance biological evaluation. So, it can be enrichment bakery products with mixed flaxseeds and beetroot to produce acceptable and healthy bakery products that can be used to treat or prevent obesity and anemic and improve glucose levels, liver and kidney functions and protect the diseases related to them. | ||||
