Nutritional Properties of Baobab Pulp from Different Angolan OriginsAdansonia digitataLAfrican foodantioxidant activitybaobab pulpelemental mineralsnutritional compositionphenolic contentvitamin CEcology, Evolution, Behavior and SystematicsEcologyPlant SciencePublisher Copyright: © 2022 by the authors.The baobab tree (Adansonia digitata L.) is found widely in the forests and savannas of sub-Saharan Africa. The baobab fruit has a sour and slightly sweet taste and is widely consumed by the natives, thus containing a high nutritional value and providing a source of income for rural people. This study aimed to compare the nutritional composition of baobab fruit pulp from different localities in the Namibe province (Angola). Twenty samples of baobab pulp were collected in markets of the four municipalities of Namibe. The results obtained showed that there is some geographic location dependence on nutritional and functional composition. The municipality of Camucuio showed samples with higher fibre content (56.62 g/100 g) and vitamin C (288.9 mg/100 g). Samples from the Virei municipality stood out for their antioxidant activity (1936 mmol TE/100 g), high K content (42.4 mg/g) and higher values of protein (2.42 g/100 g). The samples collected in the municipality of Bibala stood out for their high contents of carbohydrates (28.1 g/100 g), total phenolic compounds (972 mg GAE/100 g) and Ca (3.80 mg/g). Despite the differences in origin, the high nutritional value of baobab fruit has the potential to improve the diet of thousands of people in Africa qualitatively.DCT - Departamento de Ciências da TerraGeoBioTec - Geobiociências, Geoengenharias e GeotecnologiasCMA - Centro de Matemática e AplicaçõesRUNMonteiro, SaraReboredo, Fernando H.Lageiro, Maria ManuelaLourenço, Vanda M.Dias, JoãoLidon, FernandoAbreu, MartaMartins, António P.
