Chemical Composition, Amino Acids, Phenolic Profiles and Bioavailability of Minerals in Livingstone Potato (Plectranthus esculentus) as Affected by Different Processing Techniques

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Boiling retained the nutrients and polyphenol compounds in Plectranthus esculentus tubers better than frying or roasting. A bioavailability study showed that the phytates and oxalates in the tuber may not affect the bioavailabilities of calcium, zinc, or iron in Plectranthus esculentus tubers when eaten.

Nutritional, Functional, and Anti‐Hypercholesterolemic Properties of Sourdough Breads From Unripe Plantain, Tiger Nut, and Fenugreek Flours

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Composite sourdough breads were developed from blends of unripe plantain, tiger nut, and fenugreek flours. Optimized formulations improved pasting stability and enhanced texture, producing softer more elastic crumbs. The enriched breads contained higher dietary fiber and bioactive compounds, and significantly reduced serum cholesterol markers ...

Impact of tomato variety and homogenization pressure on in vitro lipid digestion and lycopene bioaccessibility in tomato emulsions

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Tomato variety and processing impact lycopene bioaccessibility. Tomato emulsions with high pectin content decreased the in vitro lipid digestion and negatively affected lycopene bioaccessibility. High pressure homogenization may enhance the release of lycopene into emulsion oil droplets, but it may also reduce the transfer of lycopene into the micellar
