“… foods possess physiological benefits beyond basic nutritional functions.
… market for functional foods is being driven by a growing consumer understanding of diet/disease links, aging populations, rising health care costs, and advances in food technology and nutrition” - WHO
Phytochemicals found in Tropical Fruits together with the recognized nutrients act synergistically to lower
the risk of diseases

INNOVATION FOR NEW AND PROCESSED PRODUCTINNOVATION FOR NEW AND PROCESSED PRODUCT
TYPES OF PHYTOCHEMICALS IN TROPICAL FRUITS
Limonine in guava and lime have the potential to conjugate carcinogens and facilitate their excretion
Isoprenoid products such as carotenoids, found in
mango and papaya, can also act as antioxidants
Phytosterols in pineapple and avocado, which interfere with the absorption of cholesterol, provides protection against cardiovascular disease
Boron in avocado has an oestrogenic effect and a range of biological actions
PROTEIN TYPES FUNCTION / USAGE
Isoleucine For growth, intelligence development and nitrogen balance
Leucine Increase muscular energy levels and stimulate brain function
Lysine Forming blood antibodies, improves circulatory system and promotes cell growth
Methionine Metabolizing fats and lipids for healthy liver and calm the nerves
Threonine Improves competence of intestines and aids digestion
Trytophane Enhances the B group vitamins and improves nerve fibres as for emotional stability and calmness
Valine Assists co-ordination of muscular system and improve mental capacity
Cystine Aids with pancreatic health, stabilizes blood sugar and alleviating food allergies

Campaigns for Increasing Fruit Consumption
“5 A Day” National Programme:
• increasing the availability of fruit in schools and worksites,
• changing national policies to influence fruit intake,
• reaching poor and disadvantaged population groups to reduce health inequities.

Campaigns for Increasing Fruit Consumption
United States “5 A Day Program”• One in five Americans eats his/her five a day fruits & vegetables.
• Fruits consumption of 5 to 9 servings a day will lead to healthy lifestyles.
• Awareness of this recommendation has increased from 22% in 1992 to 40% in 2002.
( US Department of Agriculture )
European “5 A-Day”• 20 out of 25 European nations fail to meet World Health Organisation (WHO) produce consumption standards.
• Three effective interventions: Workplace fruit (free fruit to employees) School fruit snack (parent paid) and Catering initiatives at worksite restaurants
• The UK Department of Health is promoting the ‘5 A-Day’ logo as part of a wider message drive to improve the overall health of the British people.

55 CONCLUSIONCONCLUSIONCONCLUSIONCONCLUSION
1. Development of the industry
The tropical and subtropical fruit industry is a vibrant industry with healthy expansion in production, international trade and consumption.
The industry should be further exploited for the development of new products, especially processed products as these fruits are highly perishable.
Development of new innovations for the extraction of phytochemical, nutraceuticals and metabolites found in tropical fruits.
2. Development of a “Global Information System”
Tropical and subtropical fruits are important sources for human nutrition. However, of late there are numerous claims on the health benefits and disease prevention properties of these fruits.
There is a need to develop a credible and reliable information system to educate the consumers on the consumption of fruits and their benefits – development of a well-informed society.
The Information System could also include statistics on production, international trade, consumption on major and minor fruits.
3. Partnership Projects
The following partnership projects are proposed for further development of the tropical and subtropical fruit sector;
i. Tropical Fruit Consumption Campaign & Human Health
ii. Conservation and Utilisation of Traditional Fruit Species
iii. Nutritional Studies: Nutrient Contents of fruit species Epidemoiological Studies Phytochemicals / Metabolites in Fruits
iv. Organic Fruit Cultivation
v. Global Information System• Production• Trade• Consumption• Nutrition and health
