    Author: Aregheore EM.
    Journal: Vet Hum Toxicol; 1992 Feb; 34(1):71-3. PubMed ID: 1621369.
    Abstract:
    A review of the toxicity factors in some food and feedingstuffs in the nutrition of man and livestock in Nigeria was conducted. The crops reviewed were cassava, cocoyam, guinea corn, cottonseed, soyabean, bambara, groundnut and cowpea. These crops provide cheap sources of carbohydrate and protein in the diets of humans and livestock. However, antinutritional factors inhibit their use. Antinutritional or toxic factors associated with them are reviewed and means of detoxifying them for human and livestock feeding are enumerated.
