dc.description.abstract | In this study, the nutritional content of three types of lotus seeds was collected from the Central and
Southern regions in Vietnam. In general, among three types, lotus seeds collected from Khanh Hoa
contained the highest macronutrient percentage and a large amount of vitamins and minerals.
However, the fat percentage of Khanh Hoa lotus seeds was the lowest compared to that of Cao Lanh
and Quang Nam lotus seeds, which were 0.92%, 0,.9,7%, and 1.43%, respectively. The percentage of
moisture in Cao Lanh lotus seeds was higher than Khanh Hoa and Quang Nam with 12.14%, 9.63%,
and 8.10%, respectively. Especially, vitamin A and vitamin D were not detected in all three types of
lotus seeds, but vitamin B12 was not detected in Khanh Hoa lotus seeds. | en_US |
