Description
Coconut is the exotic fruit par excellence. It is available in various forms: whole, grated, shredded, in milk, cream or water. It can be used in both sweet and savoury dishes. Coconut chips are very nutritious.
Characteristics of coconut chips
The coconut grows in "regimes" of 10 to 20 fruits on coconut trees. When harvested, it weighs on average 1 kg or 1.5 kg. The coconut is ovoid in shape and consists of a thick layer of smooth green skin covering a thick fibre shell. Under this brown shell is the white flesh and a liquid called "coconut water".
Foods contain several fatty acids in different proportions and these have different impacts on cardiovascular health. In the coconut, about 90% of the fat is in the form of saturated fatty acids, which is particularly high for a plant food.
Like proteins from other plants, coconut proteins may have a beneficial effect on blood lipids. Indeed, total cholesterol and blood triglycerides would decrease in animals having consumed an extract of this protein. These effects could be related to the low lysine and high arginine content (two amino acids) of coconut protein, a ratio which is found in other vegetable proteins with similar hyperlipidemic properties.
