Antinutrient & Toxicity

Antinutrient and Toxicity ID Crop ID Part Reported Factor Effect Cause Toxicity Cause Allergic Reaction Reduction Method Notes Metadata Id
63 Teff Grain Phytic acid Phytic acid is capable of chelating bivalent minerals (Ca, Fe, Mg, Zn, and Cu), starch, protein and enzymes. food preparation methods like steeping, germination and fermentation were reported to reduce the phytic acid content in the grains. NULL 8,559
64 Teff Grain Saponin Some saponins form complexes with iron and zinc reducing their absorption. To overcome this saponins, sweet varieties were developed and for bitter varieties are reported to process by wet methods (strong washing in cold alkaline water), dry methods (heat treatment, extrusion, roasting, or mechanical abrasion) or a combination of both methods.

70 Winged Bean Seed Tannin NULL Infrared, autoclaving and boiling water treatments. NULL 8,563
71 Winged Bean Seed Phytate NULL NULL NULL 8,563
74 Winged Bean Seed Saponin The presence of antinutrients in foods preparations particularly for children could hinder the efficient utilization and digestion of some nutrients and therefore reduce their bioavailability but may have beneficial effects on adults. The use of moist heat or soaking. NULL 8,563
75 Winged Bean Seed Lectin The presence of antinutrients in foods preparations particularly for children could hinder the efficient utilization and digestion of some nutrients and therefore reduce their bioavailability but may have beneficial effects on adults. The use of moist heat or soaking. NULL 8,563
76 Winged Bean Seed Phytoglutenins The presence of antinutrients in foods preparations particularly for children could hinder the efficient utilization and digestion of some nutrients and therefore reduce their bioavailability but may have beneficial effects on adults. The use of moist heat or soaking. NULL 8,563
77 Winged Bean Seed Cyanogenic Glycosides The presence of antinutrients in foods preparations particularly for children could hinder the efficient utilization and digestion of some nutrients and therefore reduce their bioavailability but may have beneficial effects on adults. The use of moist heat or soaking. NULL 8,563
78 Asystasia Leaf Oxalate Oxalate bind to calcium to form calcium oxalate crystals; these prevent the absorption and utilization of calcium by the body thereby causing diseases such as ricket and osteomalacia. NULL NULL 8,565
79 Asystasia Leaf Tannin Tannin forms complexes with protein and reduce their digestibility and palatability. NULL NULL 8,565
80 Asystasia Leaf Phytate The binding of phytate with minerals inhibit minerals absorption. NULL NULL 8,565
81 Asystasia Leaf Trypsin Inhibitor It can cause a drop in intestine trypsin and a decrease in protein digestibility, leading to slower animal growth. NULL NULL 8,565
82 Asystasia Leaf Saponin NULL NULL NULL 8,565
83 Asystasia Leaf Cynogenic Glycosides NULL NULL NULL 8,565
84 Bitter Gourd Leaf Resin May cause vomiting and diarrhoea. NULL Its contain in seeds and the fruit wall 8,567
