Chia Nuts

¿What about the pine nuts?. That little products… ¿Pine nuts?

ü Pines and other pinaceae, species of the pinaceae family, are classified within conifers that produce pine nuts contained in cone-shaped structures called strobilus, pineapples or cones.

ü Worldwide there are about 30 species of pine that produce edible pine nuts, but only some have commercial relevance.

ü The most important being Pinus gerardiana, which produces the so called Pakistani or Indian ; Pinus koraiensis, the Chinese pine nut; Pinus sibirica, the Russian pine nut; and Pinus pinea, the Mediterranean pine nut.

ü The rest of the edible pine nuts are relevant mainly at the local level, where they are in general a traditional food particularly used by aboriginal cultures or "First Nations" (GRAS-FDA, 2010). Brief Technical State of art

ü The pine nuts, in comparison to other fruits or seeds, corresponds essentially to the significantly higher presence of C18 and C20 polyunsaturated fatty acid with unsaturations positioned in the form of omega-3, omega-4 and omega-6.

ü Specifically, in this type of plant sources, a high content of linolenic acid, (PNLA), taxoleic acid and sciadonic acid, among others, is usually found in a unique manner.

ü Of these, one of the most studied corresponds to PNLA representing 14-19% of the total fatty acids present in the pine nuts.

ü The consumption of PNLA has been associated with positive effects in the reduction of inflammation, immune function, appetite and body weight, blood lipids, insulin sensitivity and cancer metastasis (Xie et al 2016). Brief Commercial State of art Price
