Considérations relatives à la récolte et au séchage pour une poudre de feuilles de moringa de qualité

Tim Motis

Extrait:

Les minéraux et les protéines ont peu varié d’une méthode à l’autre. En ce qui concerne les vitamines, les pertes les plus importantes par rapport au séchage à l’ombre ont été celles de la vitamine A avec le séchage au soleil (9 % de perte) et de la vitamine C avec le séchage au four (60 % de perte). Même avec une perte de 60% de la vitamine C avec le séchage au four, une portion de 5 g de la quantité restante fournirait 19% de l’apport journalier recommandé de 15 g pour un enfant de 1 à 3 ans.
