How are modern technologies changing our world? Scientists, students, and alumni from Brno University of Technology explain, in a simple and accessible way, topics that increasingly shape our lives, yet we often don’t fully understand them. Listen to a new episode of Technicky vzato – this time with Olga Stoklásková on high-protein bakery products.The guest on the podcast Technicky vzato is Olga Stoklásková from FCH BUT. | Author: Václav KoníčekProteins play a key role in the human body – they support the immune system, aid regeneration, and help prevent the development of certain lifestyle diseases. Yet most people still consume less protein than they need. That’s one of the reasons why even traditional baking is now partly moving into laboratories, where scientists are looking for ways to adapt everyday foods so they remain tasty while offering higher nutritional value. One such approach is high-protein bakery products, which can help supplement essential proteins, support health, and respond to changing lifestyles and societal needs.“When I cook at home, I experiment and play with flavors. In the lab, however, I have to follow a precise protocol. Currently, I focus on understanding the interactions between individual ingredients so I can better predict and influence how the final product will taste, what texture it will have, and how to develop new bakery products that customers will enjoy just as much as the traditional ones they are used to,” explains PhD student Olga Stoklásková from the Faculty of Chemistry at BUT, who focuses on the development of high-protein bakery products.Why are proteins so important for our bodies? Is the current “protein boom” really a path to better health? Where is the line between functional and ultra-processed food? And can the development of new foods help address global hunger?You can listen to the latest episode of the podcast Technicky vzato on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or YouTube, where you can subscribe to our channels so you don’t miss anything.All episodes are also available on the podcast website.
