Study of the content of the main macronutrients in gluten-free crops and products of their processing

The aim of this study was to obtain data on the quantitative ratio of the main nutrients in amaranth grain, as well as products of its processing (blasted grain and flour Krupchatki) in comparison with the more common in Russia gluten-free grain products, such as buckwheat and rice flour, corn and buckwheat. The review of Russian and foreign articles showed quite wide ranges of the content of the main nutrients in amaranth grain. As a result of the study, data on the content of the main macronutrients, i.e. protein, fat, digestible and non-digestible carbohydrates and ash content were obtained. The obtained data showed that the protein content in amaranth grain exceeds the content of this nutrient in buckwheat, as well as rice and corn flour. The total content of lipids in the exploded amaranth grain was 6.41% for dry matter, and surpassed the rest of the studied products in this indicator. The analysis showed a relatively high content of carbohydrates in all the studied products...
