Starch digestibility and β‐carotene bioaccessibility in the orange‐ fleshed sweet potato puree‐wheat bread

Abstract: Vitamin A is essential for vision, human health, growth, immune function, and reproduction. Its deficiency leads to anemia, xerophthalmia, and growth reduction in children. Foods enriched with naturally occurring carotenes have the potential, in this regard, and orange‐fleshed sweet potato (OFSP) stands out tall as it is rich in β‐carotene (βC), a provitamin A carotenoid. In view of developing OFSP‐based functional foods to address the vitamin A deficiency (VAD) issues, herein, OFSP puree‐wheat composite bread… Show more

“…For example, Orange Flesh Sweet Potatoes yield up to 1371 RAE/100 kcal of Vitamin A [55]. Their use for daily foods namely baby foods and jam and bread aid to combat vitamin A deficiency [56,57]. Similarly, consumption of iron-pearl millet meal increases the iron content in children and iron-beans intake elevates the iron level in haemoglobin, serum ferritin and total body iron in women [58,59].…”

“…However, food processing and preservation [ 13 , 14 , 17 , 18 , 19 ] and the gastrointestinal fate of its phytochemicals [ 20 , 21 , 22 ] may hinder the health-promoting potential of SP. The aim of this narrative review is to provide an update on SP’s botany/molecular phylogeny, agroindustry, and product commercialization/technological diversification, as well as the nutritional/functional value of SP’s major genotypes (by flesh color) and certain health effects (cancer chemoprevention and cardiovascular health promotion).…”

“…As indicated by other authors [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ], SPs mainly consist of carbohydrates (sugars + starch) and protein, crude fiber, fat, and ash in graded order. Although food processing [ 10 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 ] and genetic improvements [ 5 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 43 , 51 , 52 ] modify the content of specific components, the overall ratio often remains intact. Moreover, like many other R&Ts, SPs are rich in essential minerals (e.g., Mg, Mn, Fe, P, Zn, Cu Ca) and vitamins, such as α/β- carotene, lutein, vitamin B1, B2, B6, pantothenic acid, niacin, biotin ascorbate, and tocols [ 10 , 60 , 61 ].…”
