Malnutrition and micronutriment deficiences associated to emerging chronically diseases are serious public health in C?te d’Ivoire.

Examination of the fuctional properties of seed of Beilschimieda mannii were determined by proximate analysis AOAC. This study show that this plant is very rich in protein 32,58±0,11% and can provide energy-proteino diseases. Fiber is 13,54±1,70%. Carbohydrate contents are high with 87,54±1,70%. Compares to many foods rich in carbohydrates such as starchy foods from our typical diets.

With a Ph of 6.2 this food product is basic and helps to prevent aggression of the lining of the digestive system. In addition, this product is packed with many of the essential minerals cofactors of macromolecules such as proteins, carbohydrates and lipids. Calcium with 15, 76%, necessary for calcification of the skeleton bones, zinc with 5, 73%, iron 9, 20% and magnesium 8, 55%. A,ll of these minerals are important for the proper functioning of the human body.
