Many societies have found various utilities of edible flowers. They give a more ornamental look, enhances the taste, and also enhances its nutritional value. Numerous studies conducted recently have shown that edible flowers are also rich in nutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, fibre, vitamins, minerals. These flowers also contain a variety of phytochemicals, including phenolics, flavonoids, carotenoids, terpenoids, alkaloids, and other compounds that have been shown to increase biological activities, such as antioxidant, antimicrobial and antidiabetic, anticancer, cardioprotective, hepatoprotective, and neuroprotective qualities. Edible flowers have now found their way into a number of industries, including as cosmeceuticals, functional foods, and nutraceuticals.The book provides information on the nutritional value, phytochemical makeup, and bioactivity of both wild and cultivated flowers. It also describes edible flowers in depth to make them better-known to consumers and the food business. Each chapter discusses the possible toxicological effects of floral components.

Leafy vegetables contain carbohydrates, proteins, fatty acids, and minerals. Additionally, they possess a high content of fiber and vitamins. Therefore, leafy vegetables are considered the most important component of a balanced human diet. Leafy vegetables are also a source of specialized metabolites, including phenolics, flavonoids, terpenoids, alkaloids, and glucocinolates, which have very high nutraceutical values. Consequently, leafy vegetables are considered nutritious and healthy food to overcome various diseases such as diabetes, cancer, obesity, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular diseases, as well as improve risk factors related to these diseases. This book discusses the nutritional value, bioactive components, and biological activity of green leafy vegetables from around the world.Key Features:Reviews advanced aspects of leafy vegetables as food and nutrition.Reviews the phytochemicals, nutrients and nutraceuticals aspects of leafy vegetables.Reviews the leafy vegetables as a health promoter.Considers possible industrial applications of leafy vegetable crops.

This reference work provides a comprehensive overview of bioactive compounds investigated in bryophytes and pteridophytes and explores their nutritional, biological, pharmacological and ecological effects. Bryophytes are cosmopolitan lower plants that are rich in phytochemicals including fatty acids, tocopherols, phenolics, terpenoids. Additionally, these plants contain bibenzyls, bis-benzyls, and polyketides which have been demonstrated to have antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and cytotoxic activities. Pteridophytes are another group of lower vascular plants which were reported to have useful secondary compounds such as flavonoids, steroids, phenolics, terpenoids, and these plants impart medicinal values including antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, and anti-HIV activities.This book contains comprehensive contributions compiled by expert scientists and researchers in this field.The book offers a useful resource for plant biotechnologists, plant biologists, pharmacologists, pharmacists, food technologists, nutritionists, research investigators of the healthcare industry, academia, faculty, and students of biology and biomedical sciences. It also provides a strategic framework for further research and development activities of bryophytes and pteridophytes of the world.
