Legumes are essential to healthy agroecosystems, with a rich phytochemical content that impacts overall human and animal well-being environmental sustainability. While these phytochemicals can have both positive negative effects, legumes traditionally been bred produce genotypes lower levels of certain plant phytochemicals, specifically those commonly termed as ‘antifeedants’ including phenolic compounds, saponins, alkaloids, tannins, raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs). However, when incorporated into balanced diet, such legume offer health benefits for humans animals. They positively influence the gut microbiome by promoting growth beneficial bacteria, contributing health, demonstrating anti-inflammatory antioxidant properties. Beyond their nutritional value, also play vital role in soil health. The containing residues from shoots roots usually remain in-field affect nutrient status diversity, so enhancing functions benefiting performance yield following crops. This review explores ‘one health’ perspective, examining on soil- gut-microbial ecology, bridging gap between nutrition agroecological science.
