Fruits and vegetables are soft, fleshy, edible plant products and, because of their high moisture content, are relatively perishable in the freshly harvested state. Botanically, the word “fruit” refers to the mature seed-bearing structures of flowering plants; this covers a very wide and heterogeneous group of plant products, including cereals, pulses,

Fruit and vegetable allergies are the most prevalent food allergies in adolescents and adults. The identification of the allergens involved and the elucidation of their intrinsic properties and cross-reactivity patterns has helped in the understanding of the mechanisms of sensitisation and how the allergen profiles determine the different phenotypes ...

Vegetables and fruits have many similarities with respect to their compositions, methods of cultivation and harvesting, storage properties, and processing. In fact, many vegetables are considered fruits in the true botanical sense. Botanically, fruits are those portions of a plant that house seeds.

Unlike other chilled perishable foods that are modified atmosphere packed, fresh fruit and vegetables continue to respire after harvesting, and consequently any subsequent packaging must take into account this respiratory activity. Respiration is a very complex biochemical phenomenon whereby carbohydrates, polysaccharides, organic acids and other ...

The high contents of fiber and phytochemicals are belied to contribute to the health-promoting properties of fruits and vegetables. The fiber content is believed to be responsible for the inverse relationship between fruit consumption and blood pressure.

Chemical composition of fruits and vegetables is highly dependent on photosynthesis and absorption of water and minerals during the period of growth and maturation on the parent plant. However, following harvest, the sources of nutrients and water that supplied the growing entities are no longer available and they become independent units in which ...

A characteristic of the Mediterranean diet is the high intake of fruit and vegetables. From the nutritional point of view, the diet is rich in elements such as minerals, fiber, and optimally bioavailable vitamins, plus minor organic substances. Several of these (mineral salts, vitamins, and other organic substances) have pharmacological or protective ...

Changes that occur in fruits and vegetables during the ripening process and after harvest influence their use as foods. Following harvest, the sources of nutrients and water that supplied the growing entities are no longer available. But life processes go on: respiration continues with the uptake of oxygen and loss of carbon dioxide and water ...
