Study of pharmacological and non pharmacological activity of legume polysaccharide
Keywords:
Legume, polysaccharides, pharmacological actions, non-pharmacological actionsAbstract
Legumes, members of the Leguminosae family, including oil seeds like soy and peanuts, and their historical significance in societies worldwide. Only 20 out of approximately 1300 legume species are commonly consumed by humans, with chickpeas, lentils, and soybeans among them. Grain legumes, rich in protein and low in carbohydrates, are vital for nutrition in low-income populations. Processing enhances the nutritional and flavor quality of legumes, affecting starch and dietary fiber content. Despite their importance for human health, animal production, soil improvement, and greenhouse gas mitigation, legumes face challenges compared to major cereals. Genetic improvements and agricultural advancements are essential. The article also touches on polysaccharides, essential biopolymers with diverse biological activities, and highlights the importance of polysaccharides from legumes in various industries, including pharmaceuticals. The research on polysaccharides with anti-diabetic and antioxidant properties is emphasized.
