22 Jicama Yam Bean Seed Tannin NULL The seed processing methods employed (maceration, decortication, cooking, drying, trituration) to obtain the seed flour resulted in significant reductions of tannins. NULL 8,549
23 Jicama Yam Bean Seed Rotenoid NULL The seed processing methods employed (maceration, decortication, cooking, drying, trituration) to obtain the seed flour resulted in significant reductions of tannins. NULL 8,549
24 Jicama Yam Bean Seed Haemagglutinins NULL Thermal processing (pressure cooking and and roasting). NULL 8,549
25 Jicama Yam Bean Seed Trypsin Inhibitor NULL NULL NULL 8,549
26 Jicama Yam Bean Seed Cyanogenic Glycosides NULL NULL NULL 8,550
27 Jicama Yam Bean Tuber Saponin NULL NULL NULL 8,550
28 Jicama Yam Bean Leaf Saponin NULL NULL NULL 8,550
29 Okra Pod Phytate It can bind some essential mineral nutrients in the digestive tract and can result in mineral deficiencies. NULL The phytate composition of the sample might not pose any health hazard. 8,551
30 Okra Pod Tannins Tannins had been reported to affect protein digestibility, adversely influencing the bioavailability of nonhem iron leading to poor iron and calcium absorption, also carbohydrate is affected leading to reduced energy value of a diet containing tannins. NULL Tannin content of Okra pod are very low compared to its critical toxicity. 8,551
31 Okra Pod Oxalate Oxalates can have a harmful effect on human reducing calcium absorption and aiding the formation of kidney stones. NULL NULL 8,551
32 Okra Leaf Tannins Tannins had been reported to affect protein digestibility, adversely influencing the bioavailability of nonhem iron leading to poor iron and calcium absorption, also carbohydrate is affected leading to reduced energy value of a diet containing tannins. NULL NULL 8,551
33 Okra Leaf Phytate Phytic acid chelates, makes unabsorbable certain important micronutrients such as zinc and iron, and to a lesser extent, also macronutrients such as calcium and magnesium. NULL Values obtained are lower than the established toxic level. 8,551
34 Okra Leaf Oxalate Over consumption of diet with high concentration of oxalate causes kidney stones. NULL Values obtained are lower than the established toxic level. 8,551
35 Okra Leaf Saponin They are dangerous when they get into the blood stream because they quickly haemolyse red blood cells. NULL Values obtained are lower than the established toxic level. 8,551
36 Okra Fruit Phytate Phytic acid chelates, makes unabsorbable certain important micronutrients such as zinc and iron, and to a lesser extent, also macronutrients such as calcium and magnesium. NULL Values obtained are lower than the established toxic level. 8,551
38 Okra Fruit Oxalate Over consumption of diet with high concentration of oxalate causes kidney stones. NULL Values obtained are lower than the established toxic level. 8,551
39 Okra Fruit Saponin They are dangerous when they get into the blood stream because they quickly haemolyse red blood cells. NULL Values obtained are lower than the established toxic level. 8,551
40 Taro (Cocoyam) Tuber Alkaloid NULL Fermentation NULL 8,556
41 Taro (Cocoyam) Tuber Phytate Phytates in the form of phytic acid form insoluble salts with metals such as calcium, zinc, iron, and magnesium. Formation of these salts renders the metals unavailable for absorption in the body. Fermentation NULL 8,556
42 Taro (Cocoyam) Tuber Oxalate Oxalates turns to precipitate calcium and makes it unavailable for use by the body. Oxalates have also been suspected to cause kidney stones. Fermentation NULL 8,556
