Reseña del libro "Evaluation of the Nutrients & Phytochemical Constituents of Tiger Nuts (en Inglés)"

This book evaluated the chemical composition and phytochemicals present in tiger nuts as a potential alternative to synthetic drugs with side effects. The result for proximate analysis of tiger nut (Cyperus esculentus) showed carbohydrate 50.89±0.25, crude fiber 7.50±0.29, crude protein 4.57±0.08, ash 3.00±0.29, crude fat 26.53±0.18, and moisture 7.50±0.29. From the result, tiger nut contains a high amount of carbohydrates and low moisture, indicating a good shelf life. Mineral analysis identified high levels of potassium (2565 mg/kg) and phosphorus (4914 mg/kg), along with significant amounts of magnesium (52 mg/kg) and iron (190 mg/kg). The phytochemical screening of tiger nut inveterates the existence of various bioactive composites like glycosides, alkaloids, saponins, phenols, eugenols, terpenoids, and flavonoids, indicating potential health benefits. The absence of tannins and steroids suggests minimal anti-nutritional factors. These findings provide valuable data on the nutritional and bioactive profile of Cyperus esculentus, supporting their exploration as a natural source of health-promoting compounds.
