The results unveiled the high contents of antioxidants such as phenolic compounds, flavonols, anthocyanins, flavonoids, tocopherols and ascorbic acid in hull relative to that of kernel. In different populations, the kernel has a higher nutritional value than the hull; for example, the content of protein, sugar, unsaturated fatty acids and elements such as phosphorus, calcium, iron and copper in kernel are greater vis-à-vis that of hull. Palmitic, oleic (x-9) and linoleic acids (x-6) are the major components in the profile of hull and kernel fatty acids. Generally, the findings demonstrated that the kernel and hull of P. atlantica-especially in the JE population-have the highest nutritional value and antioxidant properties, respectively.
