Download or read book Gold Oil and Avocados written by Andy Robinson and published by Melville House. This book was released on 2021-08-17 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past decade has seen major political upheaval in Latin America--from Brazil to Chile to Venezuela to Bolivia--but to understand what happened, ask first where your quinoa and lithium batteries came from... The 21st century began optimistically in Latin America. Left-leaning leaders armed with programs to reduce poverty and reclaim national wealth were seeing results—but as the aughts gave way to the teens, they began to fall like dominos. Where did the dreams of this "pink tide" go? Look no further than the original culprits of Latin American disenfranchisement: resource-rich land and unscrupulous extraction. Recounting the story commodity by commodity, Andy Robinson reveals what oxen have to do with the rise of Jair Bolsonaro, how quinoa explains the mob that descended on Evo Morales, and why oil is the culprit behind the protracted coup in Venezuela. In addition to the usual suspects like gold and bananas which underscored the original plunder of the Americas, Robinson also shows how a new generation of valuable resources—like coltan for smartphones, lithium for electric cars, and niobium for SpaceX rockets—have become important players in the fate of Latin America. And as the energy transition sets mineral prices soaring, Latin America remains at the mercy of the rollercoaster of commodity prices. In Gold, Oil, and Avocados, Robinson takes readers from the salt plains of Chile to the depths of the Amazonian jungle to stitch together the story of Latin America's last decade, showing how the imperial plunder of the past carries on today under a new name.

Download or read book High Oleic Oils written by Frank J. Flider and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2021-11-25 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High Oleic Oils: Development, Properties and Uses is the first complete reference to address practical applications for this new and dynamic category of fats and oils that are essentially replacing partially hydrogenated oils in various food and nonfood uses. As a category, high oleic oils are highly stable, but like other fats and oils, there are differences in the composition and applications of the various types of high oleic oils. Their compositions allow for the production of a range of frying oils, increased shelf-life foods, functional shortenings and hard fats, and even industrial products not easily produced with nonhigh oleic oils. Information and know-how on these applications and advantages has been in high demand and short supply until now.Based on extensive commercial experience, seminars and presentations, Editor Frank Flider has identified common customer questions, needs and concerns about high oleic oils, and addresses them in this single comprehensive volume outlining development, composition, and utilization of high oleic oils. Through the individual expertise of a highly qualified team of contributing authors, this book outlines the development, composition, and utilization of these oils, making it of value to a wide range of readers, including the research and development industry and academic researchers. - Details the development and technology behind today's high oleic crops and oils as well as the history and background of many naturally occurring oleic oils - Describes high oleic oils' nutritional and compositional advantages over PHOs and lower oleic oils - Presents unbiased, noncommercial, science-based, and objective insights, deliberately balanced to represent high oleic oil varieties equally - Addresses transgenic insights as well as new state-of-the-art and future development technologies

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fully revised and updated, Processing Contaminants in Edible Oils, 2nd edition, presents the latest research on monochloropropanediol (MCPD) and glycidyl esters in edible oils. These potentially harmful contaminants are formed during the industrial processing of food oils during deodorization. A number of advancements in understanding these have been made since the publication of the first edition. These important changes, which impact industrial mitigation, analytical methods, toxicology and regulation, are highlighted for up-to-date reference. The mechanisms of formation for MCPD and glycidyl ester contaminants, as well as research identifying possible precursor molecules are reviewed, as are strategies which have been used successfully to decrease the concentrations of these contaminants. From the removal of precursor molecules before processing, modifications of deodorization protocol, to approaches for the removal of these contaminants after the completion of processing, methods of mitigating and eliminating contaminants are presented. - Include a new chapter on methods for MCPD and glycidyl esters in food - Details the mechanisms of formation for these contaminants and research identifying possible precursor molecules - Presents successful strategies to decrease the concentrations of these contaminants in edible oils - Includes analytical strategies for accurate detection and quantitation of the contaminants along with their toxicological properties

Download or read book Bioactive Phytochemicals from Vegetable Oil and Oilseed Processing By products written by Mohamed Fawzy Ramadan Hassanien and published by Springer. This book was released on 2023-04-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprehensively reviews the phytochemistry, functional properties, and health-promoting effects of bioactive compounds found in oil processing by-products, and it also explores the food and non-food applications of these by-products. Several oilseeds, vegetables, and fruits are cultivated for their oils and fats, wherein the oil extraction industry generates a huge amount of waste (meal or cake). The valorisation of this waste would be very beneficial not only from the economic and environmental perspectives, but also for the potential applications in food, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries, in which phytochemicals derived from vegetable oil and oilseed processing by-products play an important role in, for instance, extending the shelf life of several products and providing added-value properties with their antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. In this work, expert contributors discuss about the added-value of biowaste from common and non-traditional vegetable oils and oilseeds processing, as well as fruit oils processing, and offer an extensive overview of the different bioactive compounds found in extracts from oil processing by-products and their chemical composition. The book also collects several examples in which oil processing by-products are integrated into industrial activities such as food production, livestock production and in pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries. Professionals and scholars alike interested in the recycling of agro-industrial wastes derived from vegetable oil and oilseed processing by-products will find this book a handy reference tool.

This makes it a safe option for deep frying.1It's a light oil with a mild and delicate flavor that mixes well with all kinds of food and enhances their flavor rather than dominate them.Avocado oil has a significant amount of beta-sitosterol, a type of plant sterol that the body can use to break down unhealthy fats into more usable forms.6Cold-pressed avocado oil is rich in pigments like chlorophyll and carotenoids that act as antioxidants and fight free radicals responsible for many conditions like inflammation, cancer, and skin and eye ailments.
