The application of this technology is expanding gradually from pharmaceuticals to the food industry, since dietary bioactive ingredients, including polyphenols, are susceptible to environmental and/or gastrointestinal conditions. Polyphenols are the largest group of plants' secondary metabolites, with a wide range of biological effects. Literature data have indicated their potential in the prevention of several disorders and pathologies, ranging from simpler allergic conditions to more complex metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. Despite the promising health effects in preclinical studies, the clinical use of dietary polyphenols is still very limited due to their low bioaccessibility and/or bioavailability. Encapsulation can be successfully employed in the development of polyphenol-based functional foods, which may improve their bioaccessibility and/or bioavailability. Moreover, encapsulation can also aid in the targeted delivery of polyphenols and may prevent any possible adverse events. For the encapsulation of bioactive ingredients, several techniques are applied such as emulsion phase separation, emulsification/internal gelation, film formation, spray drying, spray-bed-drying, fluid-bed coating, spray-chilling, spray-cooling, and melt injection. The present review aims to throw light on the existing literature highlighting the possibility and clinical benefits of encapsulated polyphenols in health and disease.

Obesity raises the risk of several comorbidities like cardiovascular disease, gastrointestinal disorders, type 2 diabetes, respiratory problems, and most importantly non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). NAFLD is commonly considered to be both a consequence and a contributor to metabolic dysfunctions such as obesity, given the liver’s pivotal role in metabolism. NAFLD is a range of disease phenotypes that initiate hepatocyte inflammation and lipid accumulation owing to de novo lipogenesis (DNL). NAFLD has the potential to advance to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, marked by hepatic fibrosis and the subsequent emergence of NAFLD-associated cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Several notable biomarkers, including C-reactive protein, tumour necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6, leptin, fatty acid synthase and sterol regulatory element binding protein-1c have been found to have a direct correlation with inflammation and DNL. Several research studies have provided evidence regarding the effectiveness and safety of plant derived bioactive compounds plants for managing obesity associated NAFLD. Several bioactive phytoconstituents like antcin A, ginsenoside, naringenin, apigenin, silibinin, kaempferol have been identified as potential agents for improving obesity associated NAFLD by targeting the inflammatory and DNL pathways. This review explores the connection between inflammation and DNL in the development of obesity-associated NAFLD by discussing a few biomarkers related to both the hallmarks and some novel avenues for addressing the treatment of NAFLD in individuals with obesity.

Based on its pollen composition, it has a high content of pollen grains originating from Euphorbia spurge (minimum of 25%). This honey possesses a dark amber color, attributed to specific nectar sources, and chemical composition, and it’s very rich in essential components like carbohydrates, proteins, phenolic compounds, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

All higher plants synthesize HCN as a co-product during the final step of ethylene biosynthesis, whilst some plant species release it from cyanogenic compounds, accumulated for diverse physiological purposes. This molecule is used as a toxic bomb against herbivores, as a source of nitrogen in N-deficient plants, or as a regulator of seed dormancy state. The toxicity of HCN is mainly due to the inhibition of the activity of several metalloenzymes: iron-containing enzymes, molybdoenzymes and enzymes that contain zinc or copper.
