This study found that almond milk has a high nutritive value and has a high proportion of protein and oil. It also incorporates abundant antioxidants from the diet. In both free and attached forms, almonds contain phenolic and flavonoids and are abundant in tocopherol, phytosterols, and squalene. Milk with 10% almond was the highest protein content when fresh and after 7 days during cold storage (6± 1 ?C) 5.22 and 5.38% respectively. Milk with 10% almond was the highest fat content when fresh and after 7 days during cold storage (6± 1 ?C) 9.4 and 9.5 % respectively. Milk with 10 % almond was the highest total score of sensory evaluation when fresh and after 7 days during cold storage (6± 1 ?C).The apparent protective benefits of these compounds are due to their antioxidant and ant proliferative functions, which are associated with a lowered chance of developing atherosclerosis and cancer

Production Characteristics

Tree leaves are important fodders in many less developed countries, particularly in dry seasons when alternative feeds can be scarce. Although many leaves appear to be good quality fodders due to their generally high crude protein content, many contain anti-nutritive factors which reduce their nutritive value. Tannins are the most widespread of the anti-nutritive factors and are to be found in many tree species. An in vitro gas production method has been developed by Theodorou et al (1994) and applied to the ranking of tree leaf fodders (Wood et al, 1993). This paper combines data obtained from three separate pieces of work investigating the nutritive value of tree leaf fodders in Bolivia, West Africa and Colombia. It seeks to investigate relationships between in vitro gas production at various times of incubation and proximate composition, fibre and tannin content in order to identify which components are of particular importance in determining gas production characteristics and whether these relationships are consistent over a wide range of species from different sources.

<p>Purpose/Objectives: This study was conducted to assess the nutritive value of Libyan airline breakfast in comparison with the Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA) and to conduct sensory evaluation of selected items on board the flights.</p> <p>Design/Methodology: Food samples were collected from the catering department of Benina International airport, Benghazi, Libya for a period of two months and nutritive value was calculated. A self administered questionnaire prepared on the basis of the Hedonic scale was used for inflight sensory evaluation of selected snacks.</p> <p>Findings: The results on nutritive value of snacks revealed higher amounts of energy, carbohydrates, saturated fat and sodium in comparison to the RDA when the full day’s meal was considered. Micronutrients such as vitamins A, E, C and folic acid fell short of RDA. Sensory evaluation revealed that a majority of the travelers disliked most of the breakfast items except juice.</p> <p>Practical implications: The airline needs to improve the micronutrient content of snacks, simultaneously reducing the total energy and sodium content and replacing saturated fat to prevent health risks to regular airline passengers. Also palatability need not be compromised in light of safety of food items served.</p>

The available world collection consisting of 257 accessions of the tropical pasture legume Centrosema brasilianum (L.) Benth. was assessed between 1993 and 1995 in northern Nigeria to complement existing knowledge on the genetic diversity of this species and to identify accessions with high agronomic potential for subhumid west Africa. The excellent nutritive value and good dry matter productivity of C. brasilianum and its outstanding ability to remain green over extended dry periods confirmed its potential as an important forage resource, especially for the dry season, and indicated its possible role in soil conservation. Two distinct groups, comprising 10 and 11 accessions, were identified for further evaluation in short fallow and pasture systems, respectively. Accessions in the first group had a fast establishment, very high yields in the establishment year and good drought tolerance but yields were low to average in subsequent years. Accessions in the second group had sustained high yields under grazing, a high competitive ability and good drought tolerance.
