This review provides a dual perspective by integrating comprehensive market trends and scientific literature analyses to assess the current landscape of protein-fortified bakery and snack products. Market analysis utilized the Mintel Global New Products Database to track product launches, while bibliometric analysis of relevant literature was conducted using Scopus. The market analysis underlines a robust growth trajectory in plant protein-enriched offerings, marking a maturity period over the past five years. Key trends in new product development reflect increasing consumer preferences for plant-based diets driven by health, sustainability, naturalness, ethics, and convenience considerations. Scientific literature documents substantial progress in fortifying and enhancing plant proteins for use in bakery and snack products. These advancements target key technological and nutritional challenges through innovative ingredients and processing techniques. The goal is to maximize protein content while preserving appealing sensory qualities. These innovations bridge critical gaps in sensory attributes and nutritional value, enabling the creation of high-protein plant-based products that align with consumer expectations. In summary, while the market for plant-based snacks and bakery products has shown maturity with limited innovation, ongoing scientific research offers promising avenues for enhancing product quality and diversity.

The aim of this study was to analyze the research trends surrounding Amazonian fruits. The documents used in this review include 75 research articles (identified through the Ordinatio index) retrieved from Scopus, and 21 patents retrieved from Google Patents and Espacenet, focusing on the use of Amazonian fruits in food technology. Amazonian fruits have been explored for their content of phenolic compounds (especially anthocyanins), carotenoids, vitamins (mainly ascorbic acid), oils, and fibers, all of which are associated with various bioactivities. In addition to the pulp, the waste generated from these fruits also contains chemical constituents with high potential, although they are usually discarded. Therefore, there is a need for discussion among different industrial and governmental sectors to implement production chains, generate income, and provide appropriate disposal for the by-products generated during the processing of Amazonian fruits, thus contributing to sustainable economic development in the Amazon. However, in general, it is observed that although many interesting results have been published, much of the academic knowledge produced has yet to be converted into income generation, mainly through the patenting of products and processes.

It then delves into data preprocessing, feature extraction, and model algorithms within the realm of machine learning. Subsequently, we examine the progress made in applying machine learning-assisted detection technologies in the food sector. The synergy between food inspection technology and machine learning not only facilitates automated and intelligent inspection processes but also adeptly manages and analyzes vast amounts of data generated from diverse inspection instruments. Leveraging the robust modeling capabilities inherent to machine learning—particularly when addressing complex high-dimensional datasets—the food industry can more precisely identify potential quality concerns and safety risks. Looking ahead, emphasis should be placed on developing portable detection devices while enhancing deep learning interpretability and promoting model fusion establishment. Concurrently, ethical considerations and data privacy issues must be addressed as we strive to integrate food inspection technology with machine learning effectively.

Evidence from animal and human studies indicates that PPSPs can enhance efferocytosis, leading to reduced inflammation and tissue damage. Additionally, PPSPs may ameliorate diseases such as metabolic syndrome, gastrointestinal disorders, and neurodegenerative conditions, by modulating gut microbiota composition and metabolite production. Notably, non-viable probiotics also enhance natural defense against infections, boost vaccine responses, and reduce common cold incidence. Clinical trials show promising outcomes for PPSPs in treating inflammatory bowel disease and certain cancers.

The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), a transmembrane glycoprotein of the immunoglobulin superfamily, is highly expressed in neurons and glial cells. RAGE plays a crucial role in mediating adverse reactions such as neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis, making it a key target in neurodegeneration. Natural polyphenols are a diverse array of bioactive compounds found in fruits, vegetables, tea, and medicinal herbs, attracting attention for their powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties. Recent evidence suggests that these compounds can modulate the RAGE signaling pathway, thereby inhibiting harmful downstream effects and alleviating neuronal damage.
