Citrus fruits (CF) are among the most widely cultivated fruit crops throughout world and their production is constantly increasing along with consumers’ demand. Therefore, huge amounts of waste annually generated through CF processing, causing high costs for disposal, as well environmental human health damage, if inappropriately performed. According to recent indications an economic, pharmaceutical nature, processing residues must be transformed from a disposed valuable resource reused. Based on circular economy model, (i.e., seeds, exhausted peel, pressed pulp, secondary juice leaves) have increasingly been re-evaluated also obtain, but not limited to, compounds employed in food, packaging, cosmetic industries. However, use by-products still because underestimated nutritional economic value, hence more awareness knowledge needed overcome traditional approaches disposal. This review summarizes evidence pharmacological potential support switch towards environmentally sustainable society.

Oxidative stress, a critical factor affecting the health and productivity of aquatic organisms, arises from imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) production antioxidant defenses. In aquaculture, natural antioxidants have gained increasing attention as sustainable feed additives to mitigate oxidative damage, enhance immune responses, improve overall growth performance. This review provides comprehensive synthesis antioxidative mechanisms key antioxidants, including carotenoids, polysaccharides, vitamins, polyphenols, flavonoids. By neutralizing ROS modulating cellular signaling pathways such Nrf2/ARE, these compounds offer significant protective effects against damage in species. The manuscript consolidates recent advancements research, highlighting their practical applications formulation role promoting sustainability aquaculture. aims provide an integrative framework for understanding antioxidants’ potential, guiding future research implementation aquaculture systems.

A Mediterranean-style diet is highly encouraged thanks to its healthy food pattern, which includes valuable nutraceuticals such as polyphenols. Among these, flavonoids are associated with relevant biological properties through they prevent or fight the onset of several human pathologies. Globally, enhanced incidence overweight and obese people has caused a dramatic increase in comorbidities, raising need provide better therapies. Therefore, development sophisticated animal models metabolic dysregulation allowed for deepening knowledge on this subject. Recent advances using zebrafish (Danio rerio) model disease have yielded fundamental insights into potential anti-obesity effects flavonoids. Chronic low-grade inflammation immune system activation seem characterize pathogenesis obesity; thus, their reduction might improve lipid profile patients illnesses. In review, we highlight beneficial role obesity related diseases linked anti-inflammatory properties. light summarized studies, suggest that therapies could place prevention treatment disorders.
