Functional and nutritional properties of rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum L.) seed and its industrial application: A review
Trends in Food Science & Technology, 2020Co-Authors: M.h.a. Jahurul, F.s. Azzatul, S. Jinap, M. S. Sharifudin, M.j. Norliza, M. Hasmadi, Jau Shya Lee, M. Patricia, M.r. Ramlah George, M. Firoz KhanAbstract:Abstract Background Rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum L.) is an important commercial Fruit in southeast Asia and is gaining more attention in recent years because it is juicy and sweet and has a refreshing flavour and an exotic appearance. It is commercialized for fresh consumption and is industrially processed as Canned Fruit, juices, jams, jellies, marmalades, and spreads. The seed is a major co-product of this industry and is worthy of attention for industrial applications and their feasibility. Scope and approach This review describes the composition of the rambutan seed, which is examined from a critical interpretation regarding the suitable use of this co-product. This review also compares the total yield, physicochemical and thermal properties of its fat for the purpose of evaluating the potential of this Fruit co-product as a source of natural edible fat with potential industrial uses. Key findings and conclusions Rambutan seed is a major co-product of the industry that has high premium-grade fat, protein, carbohydrate, fibre, antioxidants, and phenolic content and that can be used in several segments of the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. Rambutan seed powders are also used as local medicine (they contain antidiabetic compounds) in Malaysia. To determine the effectiveness of raw rambutan seeds in treating diseases, in vivo and human clinical studies should be performed. Research should also continue to determine if rambutan seed fat can be fractionated, chemical and enzymatic interesterified, and blended with other fats to make cocoa butter alternatives. Comprehensive studies are needed on rambutan seed to explore more potential industrial applications.

Association between consumption of Fruit or processed Fruit and chronic diseases and their risk factors: a systematic review of meta-analyses
Nutrition Reviews, 2019Co-Authors: Anthony Fardet, Céline Richonnet, André MazurAbstract:Context: The degree of Fruit processing is rarely considered in epidemiological studies of Fruit consumption. Objective: Pooled analyses and meta-analyses of cohort studies and randomized controlled trials that linked Fruit consumption with the risk of chronic disease and metabolic deregulation were reviewed systematically to examine the effects of Fruit processing. Data Sources: The Web of Science and Cochrane Library databases were searched until June 2018. Search terms, querying the article title only, were based on multiple combinations and included the following: type of publication, Fruit products, and chronic diseases and their risk factors. Study Selection: The selection of studies and the systematic review were carried out in accordance with the PRISMA statement. Data Extraction: The literature search identified 189 pooled analyses and meta-analyses, 10 of which met the inclusion criteria. Results: The results showed that the degree of processing influences the health effects of Fruit-based products. Fresh and dried Fruits appeared to have a neutral or protective effect on health, 100% Fruit juices had intermediary effects, and high consumption of Canned Fruit and sweetened Fruit juice was positively associated with the risk of all-cause mortality and type 2 diabetes, respectively. Conclusions: The results support the need to consider the degree of food processing in future epidemiological studies and randomized controlled trials in order to adjust official recommendations for Fruit consumption.

the associations of Fruit and vegetable intakes with burden of diseases a systematic review of meta analyses
Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, 2019Co-Authors: Cynthia Sau Chun Yip, Wendy Chan, R FieldingAbstract:Abstract Background Low Fruit and vegetable intakes are recognized risk factors for noncommunicable diseases. This systematic review summarizes published meta-analyses of global burden of diseases attributable to low Fruit and vegetable intakes, and the best relative risk estimates. Methods A published novel assessment process combining Cochrane Review measures, Assessing the Methodological Quality of Systematic Reviews checklist, and Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale was employed. Results Sixty-four reports investigating 98 risk–disease pairs were included in the systematic review. Fifty-six pairs from 39 reports were assessed as statistically significant, involving 29 burden of diseases. Dose responses were identified for 31 negative and two positive associations. High against low intake relative risks were identified for 22 negative and one positive association. The highest identified linear dose response for each 100 g/day increase in Fruit intakes was 0.56 (95% CI 0.42 to 0.74) for esophageal cancer, followed by 0.72 (95% CI 0.59 to 0.87) for mouth, pharynx, and larynx cancer; nonlinear dose response for the first 100 g/day of Fruit intakes were 0.86 (95% CI 0.84 to 0.88) for stroke, followed by 0.89 (95% CI 0.88 to 0.90) for all-cause mortality. The highest identified linear dose response for each 100 g/day increase in vegetable intakes was 0.88 (95% CI 0.80 to 0.95) for renal cell cancer, followed by 0.89 (95% CI 0.84 to 0.95) for non-Hodgkin lymphoma; nonlinear dose responses for the first 100 g/day of vegetable intake were 0.86 (95% CI 0.84 to 0.89) for coronary heart disease, followed by 0.87 (95% CI 0.84 to 0.90) for all-cause mortality. For nonlinear associations, clear increases in protective associations were observed with the first 200 g/day of intakes, whereas little further increase or even decrease in protective associations were reported beyond 300 g/day intakes. Canned Fruit intakes were positively associated with all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality, and pickled vegetable intakes were positively associated with stomach cancer. Conclusions This systematic review supports existing recommendations for Fruit and vegetable intakes. Current comparative risk assessments might significantly underestimate the protective associations of Fruit and vegetable intakes.
