Vitaminoids are compounds with “vitamin-like” activity. Vitamins fall into two main groups: fat-soluble (e.g., A, D, E) and water-soluble (e.g., B, C, P) vitamins. Nutraceuticals include a number of substances ranging from natural diets, herbal products, biofortified crops, ...

A paradigmatic example is the production of vitamin B2, where chemical synthesis was substituted by fermentation in the 90s102. The yields and productivities of the processes are key to determining economic feasibility and therefore, metabolic engineering is playing an important role not only in ...
rich in fat and sugar but low in fiber, is associated with GM dysbiosis. Conversely, adherence to a Mediterranean diet increases short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) levels, promoting metabolic health.
Ecuador’s public health campaign during COVID-19 focused on mask wearing and social distancing; little emphasis was placed on consuming food rich in micronutrients, like citrus fruit and food rich in vitamin C, to strengthen one’s immune system and reduce COVID-19 susceptibility (Górnicka et...
Animal-based products are also considered good sources of micronutrients, particularly vitamin B12, iron, zinc, and trace minerals. However, vitamin B12 is absent in plant-based products and the other minerals appear to be relatively low in plant-based alternatives92, microbe-derived25, and culture...
The oil is affluent in iron (98.00 ±16.00 ppm), zinc (30.30 ± 0.05 ppm), calcium (44.67 ± 5.90 ppm) and vitamin B (16.20 ± 2.20 mg/100g). A total of 24 phytochemicals, with oleic acid ranking first, followed by linoleic acid, docosahexaenoic, and the least was arachidonic acid....

Vitamins are organic compounds that are required for various biological functions. In general, vitamins are not synthesized in the human body, but lack or
The peels also contain proteins, dietary fibre, polyunsaturated fatty acids, calcium and vitamin A (Ewing-Chow 2022), as well as antioxidants such as carotenoids and polyphenolic compounds. Banana peels have also been used for ethanol production and as a primary material for pectin extraction (...
