Nowadays, it is largely accepted that the daily intake of fruits, vegetables, herbal products and derivatives an added value in promoting human health, given their capacity to counteract oxidative stress markers suppress uncontrolled pro-inflammatory responses. Given that, natural-based seem be a promising strategy attenuate, or even mitigate, development chronic diseases, such as diabetes, boost immune system. Among cherries blueberries are nutrient-dense fruits have been target many studies interest richness phenolic compounds notable biological potential. In fact, research has already demonstrated these can considered functional foods, hence, use beverages, whose popularity increasing worldwide, not surprising useful strategy. Therefore, present review reinforces idea incorporated into new pharmaceutical products, smart nutraceuticals effective preventing and/or treating diseases mediated by inflammatory mediators, reactive species, free radicals.

Nowadays, the agro-food industry generates high amounts of byproducts that may possess added value compounds with functionality and/or bioactivity. Additionally, consumers’ demand for healthier foodstuffs has increased over last years, and thus food strived to answer this challenge. Byproducts are generally secondary products derived from primary production processes represent an interesting cheaper source potentially functional ingredients, such as peptides, carotenoids, phenolic compounds, promoting a circular economy concept. The existing body work shown their extracts be successfully incorporated into foodstuffs, instance, eggplant can used mulfitunctional additive antimicrobial, antioxidant, colorant properties. As such, aim review is provide insights potential new sources additives.

Cheese whey constitutes one of the most polluting by-products food industry, due to its high organic load. Thus, in order mitigate environmental concerns, a large number valorization approaches have been reported; mainly targeting recovery proteins and lactose from cheese for further exploitation as renewable resources. Most studies are predominantly focused on separate implementation, either protein or lactose, configure processes that will formulate value-added products. Likewise, valorization, so far, do not exploit full potential whey, particularly with respect applications. Nonetheless, within concept integrated biorefinery design transition circular economy, it is imperative develop consolidated bioprocesses foster holistic whey. Therefore, aim this article elaborate recent advances regarding conversion products, focusing Moreover, novel biorefining concepts proposed, inaugurate complete products diversified end Within context envisaged be reintroduced supply chain, thereby enhancing sustainability creating "zero waste" processes.
