Literature perusal reveals that, there are no previous reports on nutritional studies for this valuable fruit. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Nutritional, mineral profiling and anti-nutritional analysis of fruits were carried out. Results: In nutritional analysis, carbohydrates (6.98 g/100g fw), protein (2.68 g/100 g fw), crude fat (0.13 mg/g dw) and crude fibre (32.58%) content were detected. The fruits of &lt;em&gt;G. umbellata&lt;/em&gt;, Vitamin C (25 mg/100g fw) was higher when compared to other three vitamin evaluated, Four macro elements and 6 micro elements were also quantified. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Nutritional and Anti-nutritional analysis reveals that, the &lt;em&gt;G. umbellata&lt;/em&gt; fruits could be used as a source of protein, vitamin and minerals and highly recommended for consumption as they contain low amount of the anti&amp;ndash;nutrients analysed. This is the first report on nutritional analysis of &lt;em&gt;G. umbellata&lt;/em&gt; fruit.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">72</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Anjusha Sudhakaran and Gangaprasad Appukuttan Nair&lt;sup&gt;* &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
