Abstract:
Despite dietary recommendations that have repeatedly underscored the importance of increasing consumption of fruits and vegetables, intakes worldwide are lower than recommended levels. Consequently, the diets of many individuals may be lacking in nutrients and phytonutrients typical of a diet rich in a variety of fruits and vegetables. In the present study, we estimated phytonutrient intakes by adults categorised by sex, level of fruit and vegetable consumption ( < 5v.≥ 5 servings/d), and geographic diet cluster. Intakes of nine select phytonutrients were estimated from the 2002–4 World Health Survey fruit and vegetable servings intake data (n198 637), the FAO supply utilisation accounts data, and phytonutrient concentration data obtained from the US Department of Agriculture databases and the published literature. Percentage contributions to each phytonutrient intake from fruit and vegetable sources were also estimated. Estimated intakes of phytonutrients from fruits and vegetables varied across the thirteen geographic diet clusters, reflecting regional differences in both numbers and proportions of fruit and vegetable servings consumed, and the specific types of fruits and vegetables available in the diet. The mean phytonutrient intakes by adults consuming ≥ 5 servings/d of fruits and vegetables were approximately 2- to 6-fold the mean phytonutrient intakes by adults with low fruit and vegetable consumption ( < 5 servings/d). In some cases, phytonutrient intakes by adults consuming ≥ 5 servings/d of fruits and vegetables in one geographic diet cluster were lower than the intakes by adults reporting < 5 servings/d in another cluster. The findings from this assessment provide important information regarding the major dietary patterns of phytonutrient intakes across geographic diet clusters.

Abstract:
Background: Being overweight or obese is one of the most harmful risk factors to the health of a population. The cause of obesity is complex and multifactorial, but the primary cause is a nutrient poor diet. Despite excess intake of calories, obese individuals commonly have a lack of phytonutrients. Phytonutrients such as chlorophyll, carotenoids, and anthocyanins have all been shown to have anti-obesity effects. National data shows that states in with the lowest intakes of fruit and vegetable intake also have higher obesity rates. The data available depicts that a low fruit and vegetable intake, thus low phytonutrient intake, is correlated with excess adiposity.Methods: Fifty subjects from Thibodaux, Louisiana were randomly selected to participate. Three 24-hour food recalls were used to calculate phytonutrient content of the diets using the phytonutrient index. A food frequency questionnaire was also administered to determine intake of specific phytonutrients (carotenoids, anthocyanins, and carotenoids). Body adiposity was measured using body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, and fat percentage. Pearson correlation was used to assess correlations between phytonutrient index and body adiposity measures. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) with post-hoc tests was used to determine differences in PI and phytonutrient intakes among the BMI, waist circumference and percent body fat groups.Results: Participants who met healthy standards for BMI, waist circumference, and fat percentage all averaged much higher PI scores compared to those classified as obese/overweight. The data showed a strong inverse relationship between PI and BMI (r = -0.753, p = 0.00), waist circumference (r = -0.730, p = 0.00), and body fat percentage (r = -0.701, p = 0.00). Higher weekly intakes of chlorophyll, carotenoid, and anthocyanin rich foods had better body composition in comparison to those who consumed less (p<0.05).Conclusion: Results suggest a strong correlation between higher phytonutrient intake and improved body composition. Overall diet quality seems to make the most difference, but phytonutrients are thought to be a key reason for those benefits

Abstract:
Phytonutrients and vitamin and mineral supplementation have been reported to provide increased antioxidant capacity in humans; however, there is still controversy. In the current clinical trial, we examined the antioxidant and DNA protection capacity of a plant-based, multi-vitamin/mineral, and phytonutrient (PMP) supplementation in healthy adults who were habitually low in the consumption of fruits and vegetables. This study was an eight-week, double-blind, randomized, parallel-arm, and placebo-controlled trial. PMP supplementation for eight weeks reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) and prevented DNA damage without altering endogenous antioxidant system. Plasma vitamins and phytonutrients were significantly correlated with ROS scavenging and DNA damage. In addition, gene expression analysis in PBMC showed subtle changes in superoxide metabolic processes. In this study, we showed that supplementation with a PMP significantly improved ROS scavenging activity and prevented DNA damage. However, additional research is still needed to further identify mechanisms of actions and the role of circulating phytonutrient metabolites.

Abstract:
To understand ripening-dependent changes in phytonutrients, five commercial cultivars of red peppers (Capsicum annuum L.) grown in an open field in Taean, South Korea, were selected and their fruits were harvested at green mature (GM), intermediate breaker (BR), and red ripe (RR) stages and their phytonutrient contents and antioxidant activities were compared. Three major patterns in relation to ripening progress were observed. First, continuous increases were observed in vitamin C, total phenol, vitamin E (especially α-tocopherol), total free sugar, β-carotene, linolenic acid content, and antioxidant activity. Second, decreasing patterns were observed in phytosterols (campesterol, stigmasterol, and β-sitosterol) and linoleic acid. Third, total flavonoid and squalene contents were relatively higher at the BR stage compared with the GM and RR stages. These results indicate that each phytonutrient has a unique pattern of accumulation and degradation during the fruit-maturing process. Unlike the mentioned phytonutrients, which showed similar patterns in all tested cultivars, capsaicinoids exhibited quite different patterns of ripening-dependent changes among the cultivars. Throughout the ripening processes, positive correlations with antioxidant activity were observed in vitamin E (r = 0.814**), β-carotene (r = 0.772*), vitamin C (r = 0.610**), and total phenol (r = 0.595**) contents, whereas capsaicinoids, total flavonoid, and phytosterols exhibited no or slightly negative correlations. In conclusion, the ripening of red pepper fruits is accompanied by continuous increments in various phytonutrients and subsequent antioxidant activity.

Abstract:
Bitter gourd (Momordica charantia L.) is an important market vegetable in the tropics. The objectives of this study were to (1) conduct a preliminary evaluation of genetic diversity in bitter gourd flesh (without seeds) for phytonutrient (carotenoid, ascorbic acid and tocopherol) contents with the aim to understand which phytonutrients might be increased through breeding, (2) assess the association between fruit traits and phytonutrient contents and (3) evaluate the effect of the fruit harvest stage on phytonutrient contents. A total of 17 diverse bitter gourd entries of various commercial market types were evaluated for fruit traits and phytonutrient contents for 2 years. Significant differences (P= 0.05) among the entries were detected for total carotenoids, total tocopherols, dry matter and fruit traits. Mean total carotenoid contents of the entries ranged from 10 to 1335 μg/100 g fresh weight in year 1 and 10 to 1185 μg/100 g fresh weight in year 2. Mean ascorbic acid contents were 69 and 61 mg/100 g fresh weight in year 1 and year 2, respectively. Total tocopherol contents among the entries ranged from 480 to 1345 and 445 to 2145 μg/100 g fresh weight in year 1 and year 2, respectively. Total carotenoid and ascorbic acid contents were highest at 12 days after fruit set (DAFS), but total tocopherol contents were highest from 14 to 20 DAFS. A 100 g portion of bitter gourd fruit can meet 190, 17 and 8% of the recommended daily allowances of vitamin C, vitamin E and vitamin A, respectively, for adults.

Abstract:
The objective of this study was to investigate the nutrient content, phytonutrient composition, physicochemical properties, alpha amylase and alpha glucosidase inhibition activity and antioxidant activity of the brown algae Stoechospermum marginatum collected from Gulf of Mannar, Tamil Nadu, India in pre monsoon season (June- September, 2015). Six and eight hours of ethanol and aqueous extract of Stoechospermum marginatum were used for phytonutrient screening, alpha amylase, alpha glucosidase inhibition activity and antioxidant activity. From the results of the study it is understood that Stoechospermum marginatum contain a high amount of carbohydrate, protein, crude fiber and phytonutrients like tannin, flavonoid, saponin, alkaloid, terpenoids, steroid and total phenolic content. The physicochemical properties namely Water absorption and Swelling power were very promising. Alpha amylase and alpha glucosidase inhibition activity was recorded to be high in both aqueous and ethanol extracts of eight hour extraction than in extracts taken from six hours extraction. Antioxidant activity was detected using DPPH, FRAP, beta carotene scavenging and H2O2 assay and found to have a high radical scavenging activity. Stoechospermum marginatum possess a valuable amount of total phenolic content and other phytonutrients and physicochemical properties, it may the reason for the potential inhibition of alpha amylase, alpha glucosidase and antioxidant activity. It is concluded from the study that the brown algae may be incorporated into foods to enhance their nutritional and therapeutic value.

Abstract:
Water supply is a primary contributor to the growth and phytonutrient composition in chili peppers. Several physiological stress factors can influence phytonutrients in chili peppers, resulting in their differential synthesis. Maintaining the right and exact amount of water through a drip system can promote an effective fruit set and crop quality. Four pepper cultivars (‘Hetényi Parázs’; HET, ‘Unikal’; UNIK, ‘Unijol’; UNIJ and ‘Habanero’; HAB) were investigated under different water supply treatments: RF or rain-fed, DI or deficit irrigation, and OWS or optimum water supply. The two-year experiment was carried out in May 2018 and 2019 under open field conditions. Physiological parameters (relative chlorophyll content, chlorophyll fluorescence, and canopy temperature) were measured during the growth stage and phytonutrients (vitamin C, capsaicinoids and carotenoids) analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) at harvest in September. The study revealed that, due to higher precipitation and rainfall interruption, increased water supply affected physiological response and phytonutrients in the cultivars. HAB under OWS had a lower response during the growth period when compared to HET, UNIK, and UNIJ. As water supply increased, measured individual carotenoid concentration increased in some cultivars. On the other hand, as water supply decreased, vitamin C and capsaicinoids concentration increased. Even though cultivars responded to the water supply treatments differently, HET exhibited a more uniform and stable composition in all treatments.

Abstract:
Glucosinolates, carotenoids, and fat-soluble vitamins E and K contents were analyzed from various kale and collard cultivars at mature stage. We found a significant difference in these phytonutrients among cultivars. Among kale cultivars, “Beira” and “Olympic Red” were the highest in the total glucosinolate and “Toscano” kale was the highest in total carotenoid content. “Scarlet” kale was highest in tocopherols. For collard, total glucosinolate was the highest in “Top Bunch” while carotenoids were the highest in “Green Glaze.” An accession PI261597 was the highest in phylloquinone. In addition to the total content of each phytonutrient class, their composition differed among cultivars, indicating that each cultivar may have differential regulatory mechanisms for biosynthesis of these phytonutrients. Our result indicates that cultivar selection may play an important role in consumption of kale and collard with greater nutritional benefit. Therefore, the result of this study will provide a more thorough profile of essential and nonessential phytonutrients of kale and collard cultivars for consumers’ choice and for future research on nutritional value of these crops.

Abstract:
Abstract Omicron is a more contagious variant of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), commonly known as Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID- 19). Dietary management of COVID-19 with functional foods plays a significant role in reducing cytokine storm and the viral replication and survival. A thorough literature search was performed in electronic databases such as PubMed and EMBASE using the keywords Coronavirus, COVID-19, Omicron, functional foods, and phytonutrient. In total, 77 research articles were identified; of those, 10 papers were included after title, abstract and full text review. Most commonly used phytonutrients for the management of COVID-19 include bromelain, curcumin, quercetin, gingerol and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). These phytonutrients possessed anti-inflammatory properties, and were effective in targeting the spike proteins and docking sites of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, thereby preventing viral replication and survival. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first published review indicating the significance of functional foods in reducing the severity of the Omicron variant.

Abstract:
Four Québec-grown potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cultivars (cvs; Chieftain, Goldrush, Russet Burbank, and Yukon Gold) were examined for selected antioxidant indices and phytonutrient content. Cultivars showed significant variation in content of antioxidant indices, total soluble protein, and 2 of 9 minerals (copper and iron), in one serving (150 g fresh weight). Total antioxidant capacity was greatest in the cvs. Goldrush (pale yellow flesh) and Russet Burbank (white flesh). Cultivar Yukon Gold (yellow flesh) showed the greatest total carotenoids and total soluble protein. Cultivar Chieftain (white flesh) had the greatest caffeic acid and ferulic acid content and was similar to cv. Russet Burbank for greatest iron content. Cultivar Goldrush showed the greatest content of total phenolics, chlorogenic and ascorbic acids and was similar to cv. Chieftain for greatest rutin content. The cultivars varied in their dietary contribution to recommended dietary allowance of ascorbic acid, copper, and iron (on a per serving basis). All cultivars met the recommended dietary allowance of selenium on a per serving basis. Periderm (skin) of cultivars contributed significantly to certain antioxidants and phytonutrients in one serving, although this contribution of skin was cultivar-dependent. Potato skin can play an important role in increasing the dietary intake of specific antioxidants and phytonutrients. Consumers are advised to eat the entire tuber, including the skin. Dietary preference of one cultivar over another could result in significantly improved dietary intake of the above reported antioxidants and phytonutrients. Combinations of cultivars could also improve the nutrient composition of the diet. Selling potatoes under cultivar names would clearly help consumers make informed choices for dietary consumption.
Certains indices de pouvoir antioxydant et teneurs en phytonutriments furent évalués pour des portions (150 g, poids frais) provenant de quatre cultivars de pomme de terre (Solanum tuberosum L.) élevés au Québec. Ces cultivars (cvs; Chieftain, Goldrush, Russet Burbank, and Yukon Gold) présentèrent d'importantes différences en pouvoir antioxidant, teneur en protéines solubles, et quant à leur teneur en 2 d'entre 9 minéraux (cuivre et fer). Les niveaux de pouvoir antioxydant les plus élevés furent associés aux cvs. Goldrush (chair jaune pâle) et Russett Burbank (chair blanche). Parmi tous les cultivars, les teneurs les plus élevées en caroténoïdes et protéines solubles furent associés au cv. Yukon Gold (chair jaune). Le cv. Chieftain (chair blanche) présenta les teneurs en rutine, et en acides caféique et férulique les plus élevées, et en commun avec Goldrush les teneurs les plus élevées en fer et en rutine. Ce dernier cultivar présenta les teneurs en composés phénoliques, et acides chlorogénique et ascorbique les plus élevés. La fraction de l'apport nutritionnel recommandé en acide ascorbique, cuivre et fer contribué par l'apport nutritionnel d'une portion de chair varia selon le cultivar. Tous les cultivars ont realisé l'apport nutritionnel recommandé de sélénium dans une portion. Néanmoins, le périderme (peau) des pommes de terre peut contribuer d'importantes quantités d'antioxydants et phytonutriments à chacune des portions. La peau de la pomme de terre peut donc représenter une importante contribution d'antioxydants et phytonutriments aux apports alimentaires de la pomme de terre. On recommande donc aux consommateurs de manger les tubercules entiers, incluant la peau. Une préférence alimentaire pour un cultivar plutôt qu'un autre peut donc améliorer de façon significative l'apport alimentaire en antioxydants et phytonutriments de la pomme de terre. Une combinaison de différents cultivars de pommes de terre pourrait aussi améliorer l'apport nutritionnel d'un tel régime alimentaire. La vente des pommes de terre identifiées selon leur cultivar aiderait le consommateur à prendre des décisions averties quant à leur régime alimentaire.

Abstract:
Les agrumes très consommés au niveau mondial, représente des sources de caroténoïdes tels que la β-cryptoxanthine, qui contribuent avec les flavonoïdes (hespéridine) aux effets santé de ces fruits et en particulier dans la prévention du diabète de type 2 (DT2). Le DT2 est une pathologie mondiale en croissance exponentielle. L’objectif général de ce travail est par conséquent d’étudier les propriétés nutrition-santé de concentrés de jus de clémentine, obtenus par une technologie membranaire innovante et spécifiquement enrichis en β-cryptoxanthine (βCX) et hespéridine (HES) mais également en pectines. Le devenir digestif de ces phytomicronutriments, garants de la qualité nutritionnelle des concentrés a évalué dans un premier temps en couplant le modèle de digestion in vitro aux cellules intestinales de type Caco-2. Pour une meilleure vision physiologique des mécanismes associés aux premières étapes de la digestion, des modèles de digestion, statique et dynamique, sont comparés. La bioaccessibilité et l’absorption intestinale des caroténoïdes sont fortement influencées par la teneur et structure des pectines. Dans un second temps, les activités biologiques (disglycémie, dislipidémie, inflammation) impliquées dans la prévention du DT2 sont évaluées in vivo chez le rat après administration du concentré d’agrume. L’étude a démontré qu'un aliment à base d'agrume spécifiquement enrichi en βCX et HES est efficace dans la prévention du syndrome métabolique/DT2, soulignant le rôle possible de la βCX et de sa bioconversion en rétinoïdes. Une étude in vitro complémentaire sur macrophages murins révèle des effets anti-inflammatoires synergiques des 2 phytomicronutriments
Citrus fruits, which are widely consumed worldwide, represent sources of carotenoids such as βCX, which contribute with flavonoids (HES) to the health effects of these fruits, particularly in the prevention of type 2 diabetes (T2D). T2D is a worldwide pathology that is growing exponentially. The general objective of this work is therefore to study the nutritional and health properties of clementine juice concentrates obtained by innovative membrane technology and specifically enriched in both βCX and HES but also in pectins. The digestive behaviour of these phytomicronutrients, guarantors of the nutritional quality of the concentrates, was first assessed by coupling the in vitro digestion model with the Caco-2 intestinal cells. For a better physiological vision of the mechanisms associated with the first stages of digestion, models of static and dynamic digestion are compared. The bioavailability and intestinal absorption of carotenoids are strongly influenced by the content and structure of pectins. In a second step, the biological activities (disglycemia, dislipidemia, inflammation) involved in the prevention of T2D are evaluated in vivo in rat after administration of the citrus concentrate. The study demonstrated that a citrus food specifically enriched in βCX and HES is effective in preventing metabolic syndrome/T2D, highlighting the possible role of βCX and its retinoid bioconversion. A complementary in vitro study on murine macrophages reveals synergistic anti-inflammatory effects of the two phytomicronutrients

Abstract:
The article shows the effect of the use of phytoadditives based on sandy sainfoin in the diet on the digestibility coefficient, on the dynamics of live weight and the natural resistance of the body of calves during the milk growing period. The studies were carried out in the conditions of the Perm Territory. In the course of the studies carried out on three experimental groups of heifers, 10 heads each, it was found that feeding phytosupplements in the amount of 0.150 kg and 0.300 kg per head per day had a positive effect on the digestibility coefficients, live weight and natural resistance of experimental animals.

Abstract:
Fruit constitutes a major component of our diet, providing fiber, vitamins, minerals, and many other phytonutrients that promote good health. Fleshy fruits, such as tomatoes, already contain high levels of several of these ingredients. Nevertheless, efforts have been invested in increasing and diversifying the content of phytonutrients, such as carotenoids and flavonoids, in tomato fruits. Increasing levels of phytonutrients, such as lycopene, is highly justified from the perspective of the lycopene extraction industry due to cost effectiveness reasons. Diversifying phytonutrients, in particular those that contribute to fruit color, could potentially provide an array of attractive colors to our diet. Our major goal was to devise a novel strategy for developing tomato fruits with enhanced levels of phytochemicals known to promote good health with special emphasis on lycopene content. A further important goal was to analyze global gene expression of selected genetic lines produced throughout this study in order is to dissect the molecular mechanisms regulating phytonutrients accumulation in the tomato fruit. To achieve these goals we proposed to: 1. combine, by classical breeding, engineered polyamine metabolism with photomorphogenic high pigment mutants in order generate tomato plant with exceptionally high levels of phytonutrients; 2. use gene transfer technology for genetic introduction of key genes that promote phytonutrient accumulation in the tomato fruit, 3. Analyze accumulation patterns of the phytonutrients in the tomato fruit during ripening; 4. Analyze global gene expression during fruit ripening in selected genotypes identified in objectives 1 and 2, and 5. Identify and analyze regulatory mechanisms of chloroplast disassembly and chromoplast formation. During the 3 years research period we have carried out most of the research activities laid out in the original proposal and our key conclusions are as follows: 1. the engineered polyamine metabolism strategy proposed by the US collaborators can not increase lycopene content either on its own or in combination with an hp mutant (hp-2ᵈᵍ); 2. The hp-2ᵈᵍ affects strongly the transcriptional profile of the tomato fruit showing a strong tendency for up- rather than down-regulation of genes, 3. Ontology assignment of these miss-regulated genes revealed a consistent up-regulation of genes related to chloroplast biogenesis and photosynthesis in hp-2ᵈᵍ mutants throughout fruit development; 4. A tendency for up-regulation was also usually observed in structural genes involved in phytonutrientbiosynthesis; however this up-regulation was not as consistent. 5. Microscopic observations revealed a significantly higher number of chloroplasts in pericarp cells of mature-green hp-2ᵈᵍ/hp-2ᵈᵍ fruits in comparison to their normal fully isogenic counterparts. 6. The relative abundance of chloroplasts could be observed from early stages of fruit development. Cumulatively these results suggest that: 1. the overproduction of secondary metabolites, characterizing hp-2ᵈᵍ/hp-2ᵈᵍ fruits, is more due to chloroplast number rather then to transcriptional activation of structural genes of the relevant metabolic pathways, and 2. The molecular trigger increasing metabolite levels in hp-2ᵈᵍ mutant fruits should be traced at early stage of fruit development.
