What is Traditional fermented foods of Nigeria: microbiological safety and health benefits about?
the establishment of traditional food processing techniques, and distributing the created goods, these foods aid in the empowerment of unemployed women, improve food security, sustainable development, and economic growth in Nigeria [2]. Because fermentation results in a "pre-digestion" of food substrates, which raises the bioavailability of the related nutrients, fermented foods have the potential to be rich sources of nutrients [3]. Toxins, antinutritional substances, and allergens, including bacterial, mycotoxin, and 2 S albumin proteins, as well as phytate, tannins, lectins, protease inhibitors, saponins, alkaloids, and oxalate, can occasionally be eliminated through fermentation [4]. The related microorganisms may be beneficial to health either directly-some probiotic strains from Nigeria's most popular and well-studied fermented foods have been shown to be beneficial to health-or indirectly-by generating metabolites that are beneficial to health [5]. Prebiotic ingredients can also be found in a number of fermented foods [6]. Native fermentation techniques are time-tested, dependable, and reasonably priced ways to maintain the nutritional value and flavor profile of related sub
