Antioxidant and Nutritional Properties of Domestic and Commercial Coconut Milk Preparations

Abstract: The aqueous extract of scraped coconut kernel is known as coconut milk. Coconut milk preparations are also commercially available in the form of desiccated powders or liquids. While these various coconut milk preparations are heavily used in cooking in the Asian countries as a major source of dietary fat, limited studies have been conducted on their chemical and nutritional composition. In this study, we have determined the chemical composition and nutritional effects of both domestic preparations of coconut m… Show more

“…There is an increased interest in the research related to therapeutic application of medicinal plants such as coconut in the treatment of T2DM and its complications ( Pascual Fuster et al 2021 ). Coconut milk have been shown to contain many beneficial components including phenolic and fatty acid compounds, antioxidants, sugars, proteins, and carbohydrates ( Karunasiri et al 2020 ). Similar to coconut milk, coconut oil contains phenolic and fatty acid compounds, phospholipids, tocopherols, sterols and volatile compounds ( Deen et al 2021 ).…”

“…Probably, this compound also contributed to the antioxidant activity in black rice milk. Compared to another plant-based milk, the total phenolic content of black rice milk is lower than soymilk (61.4 mg/100 mL) [23], but higher than hazelnut milk (5.15 mg/ 100 mL) [24], and coconut milk (8.21 mg/100 mL) [25].…”
