    Abstract:
    Several studies have linked food structure and texture to different kinetics of nutrients delivery. Changes in some nutrients' release rate, such as proteins and lipids, could induce different physiological effects (e.g., satiety effect, reduction of postprandial lipemia). Recently, experts are proposing to consider the food as a whole instead of looking at specific nutrients, as the combination of food components and the way they are structured could change their physiological effects. This review highlights recent knowledge linking the different levels of structure of dairy products to their digestion, absorption, and physiological effects. Two examples, yogurt and cheese, will be presented to showcase the contributions of dairy food structure to nutrient release rates. One study aimed to validate whether changes in the casein:whey protein ratio or addition of fiber could influence the digestion kinetics of protein and, subsequently, satiety. A static in vitro digestion model has been used on experimental yogurts differing by their casein:whey protein ratio or dietary fiber content. A human trial with healthy men (n = 20) consuming 5 isocaloric and isoproteinemic yogurt snacks before monitoring lunch intake revealed that the yogurt formulation with increased whey protein content significantly reduced subsequent energy intake compared with its control. This result was linked to slower in vitro disintegration rate and soluble protein release for yogurts with increased whey protein, whereas no difference was observed for yogurts with fiber. A second study allowed discrimination between the effects of cheese attributes on lipid release and absorption. Nine commercial cheeses were digested in vitro, and 2 were selected for the in vivo study, in which plasma concentrations of triglycerides (TAG) were followed before and after meal consumption. The in vivo study revealed that cream cheese, but not cheddar, induced a greater increase in TAG concentrations at 2 h than did butter; this difference was linked to their in vitro disintegration. These studies demonstrate that the dairy food matrix per se modulates foods' nutritional properties. Other studies recently published on this topic will also be included, to put in perspective the important role of the dairy food matrix on release of nutrients and their physiological effects, and how this can be compared with other foods.
