The presence of various nutrients is essential in human diet for
healthy and active life. We need a wide range of nutrients for
substance growth and development.
The compound that are classed as nutrients are: water,
carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, vitamins and minerals.
The macro nutrients and carbon compound synthesized by living
organism, they are required in large amounts these include
carbohydrates, proteins and lipids.
Globally, of the 6.0 billion people (2000 AD), 1.1.billion is
hungry and undernourished. Half the poor of the world live in
Asia.
The UNICEF indicates that at least 5000 children die everyday
due to diseases linked to malnutrition. Low calorie-intake is
common.
India accounts for 40% of the world’s malnourished children and
60 percent of Indian women are anaemic (World Bank, 1998).
3. How do we go about
in providing balanced
nutritious food when
food itself is scarce?

8. Kankoda (Momordica dioica): it is
grown throughout the country for its
fruits, which are highly preferred as
vegetable.
The fruit is rich in Vitamin C and is ideal
for patients suffering from diabetes and
gout. Diabetes

Mature seeds are also used for various
preparations and contain about 32-37%
protein. It has diuretic properties. The
flesh can be used for preparing pickles
and sweet.
The seed contain 20-40% oil used for
cooking and as illuminant. The seeds are
parched and eaten with other grains.
9. Perilla (Perilla frutescens): it is known as
Bhanjira, is an important multipurpose crop
of the Himalayan region but is more
prevalent in the north-eastern region. The
seeds are used in the form of a paste
(Chutney) and consumed with rice or
chapatti.
Paradise tree (Simarouba glauca):
Paradise tree has its origin in El-
Salvador, South America from where it
has been introduced in India. The seed of
the plant yields 55-60% oil, suitable for
human consumption.

Nutritionally fats and oils are important for absorption of Vitamin A, D and
E.
Seeds and nuts are energy dense foods being rich in oils, fats and calories.
Such foods re especially required for growing children.

Protein is essential for the growth and maintenance of human Brazil nut
body but its deficiency is widespread in poverty- ridden areas of
the world. unlike most of the common fruits, some of the
underutilized fruits are rich in protein, e.g. Brazil nut (14.3-
17.4%), Chironji (21.6%), Java almond (19.6%), European Chironji
filbert ( 16.4-20%), black walnut (20.5%), white walnut (24.6%),
ginkgo (10.2-10.5%), marula nut, etc.
The fruit of Jessenia bataua contains a high quality protein and
oil. Similarly in humid zone of West Africa, some underutilized Java almond
fruit species are of exceptional nutritional value, e.g. the seeds of
Ricinodendron africanum contain 28% protein and provide 570
calories/100g.

Substantial increase in food production in many countries over the last five
decades, the world still remains poorly fed.
Over 800 million people are still chronically undernourished. Among them,
nearly 200 million infants suffer from acute or chronic protein and energy
deficiencies.
The neglected and underutilized species common in the ecologically deprived
regions inhabited by poor people are nutritionally rich and provide food
security to the people in their native regions of diversity during the famine and
scarcity periods in different parts of the world.
When other crops fail during drought, famine and War and emergency periods,
these fruits offer vital insurance and provide life support as food.
