Antinutrients: Lectins, goitrogens, phytates and oxalates, friends or foe?

open access: yesJournal of Functional Foods, 2022
The intake of foods derived from plants has been proposed as an useful strategy in the prevention of several chronic diseases. However, plants also possess a group of substances known as antinutrients, which may be responsible for deleterious effects related to the absorption of nutrients and micronutrients, or exert beneficial health effects.

Nutrient and antinutrient composition of Amaranthus muricatus

Plant Foods for Human Nutrition, 1999
The chemical and nutritional composition of the aerial parts of Amaranthus muricatus was assessed. This is a wild plant growing well in arid and poor soil, which are not suitable for cereals. The material under study was boiled, dried and ground and then evaluated for chemical, nutritional and antinutritional properties.

Nutrients and Antinutrients in Peanut Greens

Journal of Food Composition and Analysis, 1996
The use of young peanut leaves as a green vegetable will increase utilization of the plant and reduce production wastes that will have to be recycled in an enclosed environment such as the controlled ecological life support system (CELSS) of a space station. In CELSS, plant wastes have to be transformed into an edible or reusable form or into a compact

Phytic acid in Rhamdia quelen nutrition: Antioxidant or antinutrient?

Animal Feed Science and Technology, 2021
Abstract The study aimed to evaluate phytic acid supplementation at different levels in diets for juveniles of silver catfish (Rhamdia quelen). Five isonitrogenous and isolipidic diets were prepared with different phytic acid concentrations (0; 5.00; 10.00; 15.00 and 20.00 g/kg).

Nutrient and antinutrient composition of three varieties ofPiper species

Plant Foods for Human Nutrition, 1996
The proximate composition of three varieties of Piper guineense (Odusa-Ibibio/Efik) viz. 'Uyat Odusa' (cultivated and peppery), 'Eting-keni Ikot' (wild forest variety) and 'Eting-keni mben inyang' (wild, riverine variety), were determined using available standard methods. Also determined were mineral, antinutrient and ascorbate levels.

Food processing to reduce antinutrients in plant-based foods

International Food Research Journal, 2023
Antinutrients such as phytic acids, tannins, saponin, and enzyme inhibitors are phytochemicals that can decrease the bioavailability of micro- and macronutrients, thus causing them to be unavailable for absorptions in the digestive system. Antinutrients are a major concern especially in countries where plant-based commodities such as wheat, legumes ...

Nutrient and antinutrient profiles of raw and fermented cocoa beans

Plant Foods for Human Nutrition, 1995
Freshly harvested cocoa bean was subjected to natural fermentation for 3, 6, 9 or 12 days. The proximate, mineral, hydrocyanate (HCN), oxalate and theobromine levels in the products were determined and compared with those of raw (unfermented) cocoa. The latter sample had the following composition: protein (N x 6.25), 17.5; lipid, 62.9; ash, 4.4; fibre,

Effects of antinutrient proteins on Hessian fly (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) larvae

Journal of Insect Physiology, 2012
One strategy to enhance the durability of Hessian fly resistance (R) genes in wheat is to combine them with transgenes for resistance. To identify potential transgenes for resistance a protocol for rapidly screening the proteins they encode for efficacy toward resistance is required. However, the Hessian fly is an obligate parasite of wheat and related
