<p style="font-weight: 400;">The Transdisciplinary Journal of Engineering & Science (TJES) is the official international journal of the Academy of Transdisciplinary Learning & Advanced Studies (ATLAS),<a href="http://www.theatlas.org/"> www.theatlas.org</a>. TJES is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal with only one issue published annually, which bridges the gap between science, engineering, art, and culture to solve complex societal problems. </p>The ATLAS Publishingen-USTransdisciplinary Journal of Engineering & Science1949-0569Wheat Bread with a Lower Glycemic Reaction Using Creole Maize and Turmeric: A Transdisciplinary Approach
https://atlas-tjes.org/index.php/tjes/article/view/2149
<p><em>Adopting a transdisciplinary approach with the agricultural community of San Pedro Potla in the State of Mexico, where diseases such as diabetes are prevalent, it is necessary to propose foods that elicit a lower postprandial response to prevent this disease. This can be achieved by generating nutraceutical staple foods that elicit a lower postprandial response. Based on two agricultural products — Creole maize (CM) and turmeric- this research proposes producing added-value boxed bread with nixtamalized Creole maize and nixtamalized CM and turmeric. All added bread samples had a lower glycemic response, the best results were found for bread samples with maize and turmeric added, which significantly (p ≤ 0.05) reduced the glycemic response by 14 to 19%. (2) Regarding phenolic compounds, breads with maize and turmeric showed trends to respect gallic acid reached its highest concentrations in breads prepared with hard yellow maize and turmeric (from 1.55 to 3.6 μg·mL⁻¹). These results could be incorporated into nutrition education programs that promote the production and consumption of healthy foods in maize-producing communities to prevent diseases such as diabetes.</em></p> <p><strong> </strong></p>Claudia Hernandez-AguilarFlavio A.

https://atlas-tjes.org/index.php/tjes/article/view/2207
<p>Electromechanical Engineering Projects in Higher Education (EEPHE) usually arise from an industrial need. Students analyse the problem and design a technical solution that meets that need, with the aim of obtaining a good grade in the subject or obtaining their degree. An analysis was conducted of five EEPHE in which the type of wicked problem to which they contributed was identified, as well as the main disciplinary subjects involved. Different transdisciplinary methodologies used were also identified. This work seeks to provide a first approach and complement to transdisciplinarity for the development of university engineer projects under a transdisciplinarity approach by using methodological proposal, students will move beyond just creating a cool gadget. They will be pushed to develop meaningful, responsible, and socially-aware electromechanical solutions that truly address the twisted nature of real-world problems.</p>Omar Hetzael López-AlmonteLuis Manuel Hernández-SimónJorge Santiago-Amaya
