Grape and pomegranate are rich sources of phenolic compounds, their derived products could be used as ingredients for the development functional foods dietary supplements. However, profile nonextractable or macromolecular compounds in these samples has not been evaluated. Here, we show a comprehensive characterization extractable grape/pomegranate pomace supplement using high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-quadrupole time-of-flight (HPLC-ESI-QTOF) matrix-assisted...
This study aimed to determine the phytochemical profile and nutraceutical properties of nopal cladodes (Opuntia ficus-indica) at different stages maturity. Medium-age showed highest total saponins, phytosterols, indigestible fiber, as well in vitro antioxidant capacity digestive enzymes inhibitory activity. Furthermore, these presented content p-hydroxybenzoic acid, p-coumaric rutin, narcissin, nicotiflorin, β-sitosterol, sitosteryl-3-β-glucopyranoside, several amino acids, organic fatty...
The calyxes of roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa) are recognized for their high nutraceutical value because they decrease body weight and obesity complications. These effects have been attributed mainly to anthocyanins. However, the comprise important concentration flavonoids, phenolic, organic acids, which could also contribute these effects. objective this work was determine effect Alma Blanca white variety on hepatic steatosis in high-fat, high-fructose, diet-fed rats compare its beneficial...
This randomized, double-blind, parallel and placebo-controlled study aimed to evaluate the effect of Bacillus coagulans GBI-30, 6086® probiotic (GanedenBC30®) against upper respiratory tract infections (URTI) gastrointestinal (GITI) in eighty healthy school-aged children (6-8 years old). The participants received daily a sachet containing either GanedenBC30 (1 × 109 colony-forming units) or placebo (maltodextrin) for three months. significantly decreased incidence URTI symptoms including...
Peppermint (Mentha piperita) infusions represent an important source of antioxidants, which can be enhanced by inducing abiotic stress in plants. The aim this study was to evaluate the effect drought on peppermint cultivation as well metabolite profile, antioxidant capacity, and inhibition digestive enzymes resulting infusions. At 45 days after planting, irrigation suppressed until 85 (control), 65, 35, 24, 12% soil moisture (SM) reached. results showed that SM decreased fresh (20%) dry (5%)...
The consumption of fruits, vegetables, nuts, legumes, and whole grains has been associated with a lower risk colorectal cancer (CRC) due to the content natural compounds antioxidant anticancer activities. oat (Avena sativa L.) is unique source avenanthramides (AVAs), among other compounds, chemopreventive effects. In addition, germination shown enhanced nutraceutical phytochemical properties. Therefore, our objective was evaluate effect sprouted (SO) its phenolic-AVA extract (AVA) in...
Two varieties of common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), Bayo Victoria and Negro 8025, were evaluated to determine the effect on cellular viability mechanisms involved in apoptosis pathways, using a model with HT-29 cells. Aqueous methanolic (50:50) extracts from cooked analyzed for phenolic composition, identifying greater diversity compounds extracts. However, 8025 showed content cytotoxicity effects at lower media inhibitory concentrations, effectiveness activate apoptotic pathways....
Common beans have been associated with anti-diabetic effects, due to its high content of bioactive compounds. Nevertheless, consumption has decreased worldwide. Therefore, there is an increasing interest in the development novel functional foods elaborated common beans. The aim this study was evaluate effect oat-bean flour cookies, and analyze composition, using commercial oat-wheat cookies for comparative purposes.Oat-bean (1.2 g kg-1 ) slightly serum glucose levels (∼1.1-fold) increased...
