More about the book
Exploring the significance of oil plants, this book highlights the crucial role of Pentaclethra macrophylla benth, an oleaginous species from the DR Congo. Recommended by the F.A.O., its seeds are rich in plant-based lipids and proteins, offering oils with excellent nutritional quality. These oils, pressed rather than extracted, exhibit greater resistance to oxidation and are rich in essential unsaturated fatty acids like oleic, linoleic, and linolenic acid, vital for metabolic health. The work emphasizes the potential of this plant for local food and modern product development.
