Comparative study on structural characterization, physicochemical properties, and in vitro probiotic activities of resistant starch from different varieties of Euryale ferox

Euryale ferox, a nutritious aquatic plant, contains two varieties with significantly different health benefits. North Euryale ferox has much higher levels of resistant starch (a special type of starch that resists digestion) compared to South Euryale ferox, making it potentially more beneficial for gut health and diabetes management. The resistant starch in this plant acts as a prebiotic, promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria while inhibiting harmful bacteria, supporting overall digestive and metabolic health.

Plant-Based Meat Analogues: Exploring Proteins, Fibers and Polyphenolic Compounds as Functional Ingredients for Future Food Solutions

This review explores how plant-based ingredients can be used to create meat-like products that are healthier and more sustainable. By combining plant proteins, fibers, and natural compounds from fruits and vegetables, scientists are developing meat alternatives that taste and feel like real meat while offering nutritional and environmental benefits. The paper discusses which plants work best, how to extract and use these ingredients, and what challenges still need to be overcome to make these products widely available and affordable.
