Description

Mohamed Salem leads a team in a 2025 study of beef burgers with fat replaced by pearl millet fibers. A classic burger leans on added animal fat for taste and bite, at a cost to health. Pearl millet bran offers fiber and plant compounds that could take some of that fat's place.

Burgers were made with bran in place of the added fat at a few set levels, up to the top share. Plant phenols and antioxidant strength rose as the bran share grew. Markers of fat spoilage after days in store ran lower in the high-bran batch. The bran also shifted the burgers' quality traits, which the team read one by one.
