Fonksiyonel Beslenmede Bademin Önemi

Fonksiyonel beslenme, hastalıkların önlenme ve tedavisinin yanısıra insanlarda sağlığın korunmasında önemli rol oynamaktadır. Badem (Prunus amygdalus), fonksiyonel özellikleri üzerine en fazla çalışılan sert kabuklu ağaç meyvesidir. Günlük diyette oleik asit, diyet lifi, magnezyum, α‐tokoferol, riboflavin, fosfor ve bakırın önemli bir kaynağı olması nedeni ile “yoğun besin içerikli gıda” olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Ayrıca, fonksiyonel bileşen olarak kullanılabilen proteinler, polifenoller, flavonoidler, flavanoller ve flavonol glikozidleri gibi birçok biyoaktif bileşeni de içermektedir. Birçok çalışma badem tüketiminin sağlık üzerine kardiyo-koruyucu, kanseri önleyici, antioksidatif, antiinflamasyon, antialerjik, antidiyabetik özellikler gibi olumlu etkilerinin olduğunu belirtmektedir. Bu makalenin amacı, bademin besin bileşenleri ve insan sağlığı üzerine fonksiyonel özellikleri hakkında bilgi vermektir.

The Importance of Almond in Functional Nutrition

Functional nutrition has played an important role in prevention and treatment of diseases as well as the human well-being. Almond, Prunus amygdalus, is the most studied tree nut on its functional properties. It has been defined as nutrient-dense nut because of an excellent source of oleic acid, fiber, magnesium, α‐tocopherol, riboflavin, phosphorus and copper in daily diet. However, it has contained many other bioactive compounds like proteins, polyphenols, flavonoids, flavanols and flavonol glycosides which can be used as a functional ingredient. Many studies have mentioned that consumption of almond has provided beneficial effects on health such as a cardio-protective, cancer-preventive, antioxidative, antiinflammation, antiallergic and antidiabetic properties. The objective of this review is to give information about the nutritional components and functional properties of almond on human health.
