Traditional Sudanese Foods
Traditional foods play an important role in mitigating hunger in the developing world. Those of Sudan are distinguished by their unique taste and nutritional content, with some nutritional influences that enrich them. They have been around for thousands of years, and have a strong effect on local and regional food security and poverty alleviation. To date, there has not been a reference work focusing on the full scope of traditional Sudanese foods, from their sources and composition to their preparation and nutritional and therapeutic aspects. This book fills this gap, expansively covering the importance of traditional Sudanese foods worldwide. Over 43 traditional Sudanese foods are reported here, with individual chapters focusing on each food source. This book will be of interest to food scientists, nutritionists, chemists, pharmacists, academics, undergraduate and graduate students, and professionals working with foods and human nutrition.
African Edible Insects As Alternative Source of Food, Oil, Protein and Bioactive Components
The harvesting, processing and consumption of edible insects is one of the main keys to the sustainability of food chains on the African continent. Insects are the largest and most successful group of animals on the planet and it is estimated that they comprise 80% of all animals. This makes edible insects extremely important to the future survival of large populations across Africa and the world. Insects offer a complete animal protein that includes all 9 essential amino acids and are very competitive with other protein sources. They are also a good source of beneficial unsaturated fats, and many insects have a perfect Omega 3:6 balance. African Edible Insects As Alternative Source of Food,...
Recent Studies on Vitaminology - Insights, Applications and Uses
Vitamins are organic compounds essential to the organism and serve as vital nutrients in limited quantities. Organic chemical compounds are called vitamins when they are difficult for humans to produce in sufficient amounts and must be obtained from food. The term, therefore, depends on the circumstance and the organism. For example, ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is a vitamin for humans but not for most other animals, and biotin and vitamin D are needed in the human diet only under certain circumstances. Nutritional supplements are important to treat some health problems. It is known that vitamins are important in our bodies because they have different functions that help keep our bodies functioning correctly. They help us resist infections and maintain the health of our nerves, and many of them help our bodies obtain energy from food, and others help blood clot properly. This book is an addition to the scientific library because it contains modern information distributed in five chapters by researchers known for their competence and scientific experience.
Food and Nutrition Security in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Vol. 2
Food and nutrition security is a major concern for Saudi Arabia and the surrounding regions due to the range of challenges they face. These challenges include limited agricultural resources, low self-sufficiency in key food staples, climate change, and high levels of food loss and waste. This book aims to evaluate and analyze the current situation and future prospects of food and nutrition security in Saudi Arabia. Additionally, it seeks to analyze and assess the roles and functions of various institutions related to food security, providing a deeper understanding of the complex problems associated with it. Furthermore, this book aligns with Kingdom Vision 2030, which includes a set of strat...

Unconventional Oilseeds and Oil Sources
Unconventional Oilseeds and New Oil Sources: Chemistry and Analysis is presented in three parts, with each section dedicated to different types of oil sources. Part One deals with plants (vegetable, herbs, shrubs), such as Hibiscus, Mexican Poppy, Cucumber, Squashes, Sesame, etc. Part Two presents unconventional oils found in trees (like Balanites aegyptiaca, Annona squamosal and Catunaregam nilotica), and Part Three deals with new oils found in insects, as in the water melon bug and sorghum bug. This book will be of interest to researchers in oilseed production, research and development personnel, food scientists, plant breeders, product development personnel, and government agency personne...
Plants for Desperate Times
Famines and other serious food shortages have been one of the scourges faced by humanity for millennia. Plants for Desperate Times is an introduction to the diversity of plant foods that have saved millions of lives during lethal food shortages. While not a field guide, it addresses questions about what famine foods are and why they are important. The work highlights one hundred plants. Each entry includes the common and scientific names, botanical family, distribution, use as a famine food and other uses, and nutritional information. The species come from across the botanical kingdom, demonstrating the diversity of life-saving plants and the human ingenuity of making what might seem to be i...
Colorimetric Sensors
Colorimetric Sensors: Techniques to Measure Food Safety and Quality explores the latest advancements in colorimetric sensors/indicators and their applications. It consolidates state-of-the-art developments and current approaches in the fabrication of colorimetric sensors/indicators for cutting-edge applications. This book documents the principles of colorimetric sensors, sensor fabrication and characterization, sensitivity and detection limits of colorimetric sensors based on natural pigments, synthetic dyes, and nanotechnologies, as well as safety, quality controls, and regulatory aspects, followed by an assessment of their safety and quality. In addition, global trends in the application o...
Wild Fruits: Composition, Nutritional Value and Products
Wild fruits play an important role in mitigating hunger in the developing world. As a sustainable and natural food source in rural areas, these fruits have a strong effect on regional food security and poverty alleviation. This makes the utilization of wild foods incredibly important for native populations both in terms of food security and economics. There are many traditional methods for wild fruit harvesting, indigenous tree and plant domestication and cultivation passed down through generations that are sustainable and economically viable, ultimately contributing to a better quality of life for large sections of the developing world. To date there has not been a reference work focusing o...
