Special Issue: Marine-Derived Compounds Applied in Cardiovascular Disease

mycolabadmin

This collection of studies explores how compounds from ocean sources like seaweed, fish, shrimp, and microalgae can help protect heart health and prevent cardiovascular diseases. Researchers examined various marine ingredients and found they can reduce inflammation, lower cholesterol, reduce blood pressure, and prevent blood clots. The findings suggest that marine-derived products could become safer, more affordable alternatives or complements to current heart disease medications while supporting sustainable ocean resource use.

A Review of the Role of Paraprobiotics in the Formulation of High-Protein Ice Cream as an Advanced Functional Food

mycolabadmin

Paraprobiotics are inactivated bacterial cells that offer the same health benefits as live probiotics but are much more stable and don’t require refrigeration. When added to high-protein ice cream, paraprobiotics help boost immune function and gut health while improving the product’s texture and shelf-life. This makes paraprobiotic-enriched ice cream an ideal functional dessert for athletes, people with dietary restrictions, and anyone seeking healthier frozen food options.

Antioxidant activity and phytochemical analysis of different varieties of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) available in Pakistan

mycolabadmin

Researchers analyzed five varieties of barley grown in Pakistan to determine their nutritional and health benefits. They found that all varieties contained beneficial compounds with antioxidant properties, with Jau-21 performing exceptionally well. These barley varieties are rich in protein, fiber, minerals, and compounds that may help protect against diseases like diabetes and heart disease, making them promising ingredients for developing healthy food products.

Mushrooms-Rich Preparations on Wound Healing: From Nutritional to Medicinal Attributes

mycolabadmin

Mushrooms are nutritious foods that contain beneficial compounds like β-glucans and polysaccharides which can help wounds heal faster. These compounds work by activating immune cells and promoting collagen production, which are essential for skin repair. Research shows that mushroom extracts from species like Ganoderma lucidum and Hericium erinaceus can accelerate wound closure in experimental models and may benefit diabetic wound care and burn treatment.

Molecular docking as a tool for the discovery of molecular targets of nutraceuticals in diseases management

mycolabadmin

This review explains how scientists use computer simulations to understand how natural food compounds (called nutraceuticals) interact with disease-causing molecules in the body. By using molecular docking software, researchers can predict which compounds might fight diseases like cancer and heart disease before conducting expensive laboratory tests. The review shows that many common foods like turmeric, grapes, and green tea contain compounds that could potentially treat various diseases by targeting specific proteins and pathways involved in disease development.

Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Properties of Mushroom-Based Food Additives and Food Fortified with Them—Current Status and Future Perspectives

mycolabadmin

Mushrooms are nutrient-rich foods containing compounds that protect our bodies from damage and reduce inflammation. When mushrooms are processed into powders, extracts, or specially designed capsules, they can be added to ordinary foods like bread, pasta, and yogurt to make them healthier. This review shows that these mushroom-enriched foods successfully boost the antioxidant power of products, though the best results depend on how the mushrooms are prepared and which type of food they’re added to.

Comprehensive review on oyster mushroom species (Agaricomycetes): Morphology, nutrition, cultivation and future aspects

mycolabadmin

Oyster mushrooms are increasingly popular edible fungi that can be grown on agricultural waste materials like rice and wheat straw. These nutritious mushrooms are rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals while containing compounds with health benefits including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Their cultivation offers an environmentally friendly solution to waste management while producing highly nutritious food that could help address global food security challenges.

The microbial strategies for the management of chemical pesticides: A comprehensive review

mycolabadmin

Chemical pesticides used to protect crops contaminate soil and water, harming both ecosystems and human health. Scientists have discovered that specific microorganisms—bacteria, fungi, and algae—can naturally break down these harmful pesticides into harmless substances. By using advanced technologies to understand how these microbes work and even genetically enhancing them, researchers are developing sustainable solutions to clean up pesticide-contaminated environments without the toxic side effects of traditional cleanup methods.

The Soil Bacterial Community Structure in a Lactarius hatsudake Tanaka Plantation during Harvest

mycolabadmin

Researchers studied the soil bacteria in Lactarius hatsudake mushroom plantations to understand which bacteria help these valuable mushrooms grow. They found that mushroom-producing areas had different and less diverse bacterial communities compared to control areas, with specific bacteria like Burkholderia species being particularly abundant. These beneficial bacteria appear to create a stable environment that supports mushroom development, which could help improve mushroom farming practices in the future.

Scrutinizing the Nutritional Aspects of Asian Mushrooms, Its Commercialization and Scope for Value-Added Products

mycolabadmin

Mushrooms are nutrient-dense foods that can help address malnutrition and provide health benefits comparable to meat and eggs. They contain proteins, vitamins, minerals, and special compounds that help fight inflammation, boost immunity, and prevent diseases like cancer and heart disease. Mushroom-based products like powders, capsules, and fortified foods are becoming increasingly available in markets, offering practical ways to incorporate these nutritional benefits into daily diets.
