4. Conclusions
Flaxseed cinnamon cookies were enriched with cooked fish
bones to make the cookies a healthier snack. The Nile tilapia fish
bones would be available as a waste by-product from fish factories
and restaurants as a low-cost raw material to enrich cookies for
human consumption. The consumption of 100 g of enriched
cookies at 24% replacement of the wheat flour would give 63%,
80%, and 54% of the RDA for females over 50 yr of Ca, P, and Fe,
respectively, along with 238% of the omega 3 FA recommended by
the American Heart Association for those having cardiovascular
disease.
