Investigations of the fatty acid profile revealed that MUFAs and PUFAs account for 79 % of total fatty acids, which approaches the 85 % composition for an ideal fat (Gallina Toschi et al. 1993; Venkatachalam and Sathe 2006). This feature is particularly relevant as such content can be attributed to oleic and linoleic acids, with the former being the most abundant MUFA and one of the most readily metabolized fatty acids and the latter the most abundant PUFA and precursor of prostaglandin, as well as an essential fatty acid (Gallina Toschi et al. 1993).

The reduction of coronary heart diseases associated with nut consumption was also correlated with the presence of other bioactive compounds, such as tocopherols, squalene, and phytosterols (Kris-Etherton et al. 2001) that were found to be present in cashew nut, although to a lesser extent compared to pistachio and pine nuts (Ryan et al. 2006). 

OZSTAR (www.ozstarmakina.com) has the best nuts processing systems including roasters, fryers of different kinds and of various capacities to give you the perfectly roasted nuts! OZSTAR also provides additional equipment for flavouring and seasoning the nuts. OZSTAR (www.ozstarmakina.com) has already various kinds of industrial fryers along flavouring and seasoning equipment for nuts controlled by touch screen.

Protein content was found to vary considerably, from 19 % (Venkatachalam and Sathe 2006) up to 36 % (Aremu et al. 2006; Pearson 1976). Carbohydrate content was seen to span from 1.4 % (Akinhanmi et al. 2008) to 26.8 % (Aremu et al. 2006), with 20–25 % being the most common values, depending on the level of crude fat and protein, in turn determined by cashew variety and environmental conditions (Akinhanmi et al. 2008). The analysis of the amino acid profile revealed glutamic acid, aspartic acid, and leucine being the most abundant (22.4–13.6, 5.6–10.2, and 6.2–8.0 %, respectively; Aremu et al. 2006, 2007; Venkatachalam and Sathe 2006). 

The same studies, in line with previous findings, confirmed high total amino acid content over crude protein (up to 76 % in Aremu et al. 2006), which makes cashew nut a good source of amino acids. The high quality of cashew nut amino acid supply is further confirmed by the high value of total essential amino acids, accounting for up to 47 % (Aremu et al. 2007). 

Such content, however, was found sufficient to meet adult requirements for lysine and threonine but not the requirements for infants (0–6 months) or children (up to 3 years) according to the joint FAO Expert Consultation (FAO 2013b); (Venkatachalam and Sathe 2006).
