Extraction, Isolation and Nutritional Quality of Coffee Protein.

Coffee protein is reported to have high levels of branched-chain amino acids of value in sports nutrition and malnutrition recovery. However, data demonstrating this unusual amino acid composition are limited. We investigated the extraction and isolation of protein concentrates from coffee bean fractions, viz.

The Nutritional and Phytochemical Composition of the Indigenous Australian Pindan Walnut (Terminalia cunninghamii) Kernels.

Nutritional composition of the kernels of two types of Pindan walnut (Terminalia cunninghamii), a native nut consumed traditionally by Australian Indigenous peoples, is reported for the first time. Results showed that Pindan walnut kernels contained high levels of fat, protein and ash, approximately 50, 30 and 5% fresh basis, respectively. The levels of minerals in the kernels were much higher than common walnuts and macadamia nuts, especially those of phosphorus, magnesium and zinc.
