A Comprehensive Analysis of the Nutritional Value, Antioxidant Potential and Fatty Acid Composition of Lucuma (Pouteria lucuma) Fruit, Grown in the High-Altitude Valleys of Bolivia.
The lucuma tree (Pouteria lucuma), native to South America, is gaining attention for its unique nutritional profile and potential health benefits. This study aimed to analyze the nutritional composition, antioxidant capacity, and fatty acid profile of lucuma fruit from a high-altitude valley in Bolivia. The proximate analysis revealed high levels of carbohydrates (41.7%), dietary fibre (2.4%), and protein (6.9%). Antioxidant assays identified significant amounts of polyphenols, flavonoids, and carotenoids, known for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The fruit's fatty acid profile showed a healthy omega-6:omega-3 ratio of 0.21. These results highlight lucuma's potential as a functional food and support further research into its health benefits.
期刊介绍:
The Brazilian Academy of Sciences (BAS) publishes its journal, Annals of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences (AABC, in its Brazilianportuguese acronym ), every 3 months, being the oldest journal in Brazil with conkinuous distribukion, daking back to 1929. This scienkihic journal aims to publish the advances in scienkihic research from both Brazilian and foreigner scienkists, who work in the main research centers in the whole world, always looking for excellence.
Essenkially a mulkidisciplinary journal, the AABC cover, with both reviews and original researches, the diverse areas represented in the Academy, such as Biology, Physics, Biomedical Sciences, Chemistry, Agrarian Sciences, Engineering, Mathemakics, Social, Health and Earth Sciences.
