Abstract

Nuts are highly valued for their properties and are consumed worldwide owing to their health benefits, particularly, for the prevention and treatment of diseases, as well as a source of essential macro- and micronutrients. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of roasting on the nutritional value of nuts. Three types of nuts, raw and roasted almonds, cashews, and walnuts were selected from three well-known companies in Saudi Arabia. To analyze and evaluate the stability of macro- and micronutrients in nuts, modern separation and quantification methods, including inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OSE), were used to analyze and evaluate the stability of nutrients and heavy metals in nuts that are widely distributed and consumed. The results of this study indicate that nuts have high nutritional value and an inverse roasting effect. Comparing the nutrient and metal contents of raw and roasted nuts provides useful information on the nutritional science of nuts consumed by well-known manufacturers in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Further investigations of nuts are needed to draw firm conclusions regarding their association with the prevention of many different diseases.

关于生坚果和烤坚果营养成分的综合研究

坚果具有很高的价值，由于其对健康的益处，特别是对预防和治疗疾病的益处，以及作为人体必需的宏量和微量营养素的来源，全世界的人们都在食用坚果。本研究旨在评估烘焙对坚果营养价值的影响。研究人员从沙特阿拉伯的三家知名公司挑选了三种坚果，即生杏仁、腰果和核桃，并对它们进行了烘焙。为了分析和评估坚果中宏量和微量营养素的稳定性，采用了现代分离和定量方法，包括电感耦合等离子体-光发射光谱法（ICP-OSE），来分析和评估广泛分布和食用的坚果中营养素和重金属的稳定性。研究结果表明，坚果具有很高的营养价值和反焙烧效应。比较生坚果和烘焙坚果中的营养成分和金属含量，为沙特阿拉伯王国知名制造商消费的坚果的营养科学提供了有用信息。还需要对坚果进行进一步调查，才能就其与多种疾病的预防关系得出确切结论。
