My former graduate student, Dr. Lotis Francisco and I conducted conducted several studies that revealed the high concentration of health beneficial polyphenolic antioxidents iin peanut skins. Scientists from North Carolina State University studied their use in peanut butter: Peanut skins are a low-value residue material from peanut processing which contain naturally occurring phenolic compounds. The use of this material to improve antioxidant capacity and shelf-life of foods can add value to the material and improve the nutritional value of foods. The improved nutritional qualities and unchanged flavor profile occurring with low levels of peanuts skins in peanut paste and peanut butter suggest potential application of this technology in various food industries.

What is the Difference Between a Food Allergy, Food Intolerance and Food Sensitivity? "Eight foods account for 90 percent of all food-allergic reactions: milk, egg, peanut, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, soy, and wheat. While a lot of people will eventually grow out of allergies to milk, eggs, wheat or soy, allergies to peanuts and shellfish tend to be longer lasting and impose severe symptoms"-- Aurora Saulo. . While most people define any negative reaction to food as a food allergy, many actually suffer from a food sensitivity or intolerance. This videoclip from the Institute of Food Technoologissts, IFT, features Aurora Saulo, professor and extension specialist in food technology at University of Hawaii Manoa, Dr. Saulo Internationally recognized specialist on food safety, discusses food allergies, food intolerances and food sensitivities. This story is curated by FoodieDoc, Anna Resurreccion, Ph.D. Both Drs. Saulo and Resurreccion are Fellows of the IFT.

Natural Nutri-Nut Spread... The University of Georgia's Global Peanut Product Processing and Marketing Team (GP3MT), Dr. Anna Resurreccion, Dr. Manjeet Chinnan and Dr. Wojciech Florkowski, each led a project to design, develop, optimize, scaleup and commercialize Nutri-Nut in Uganda. . The scientists are engaged in research to support the value-chain for peanuts. The research is supported by the US Agency for Intenational Development (USAID).
This project involved desk research on the causes of aflatoxin contamination, techniques that have been developed to control and/or manage the risk of contamination and a review of where these have been applied in groundnut production systems. KW: Aflatoxin, SATH
