Anti‐nutritional compounds in pulses: Implications and alleviation methods

Abstract: Pulses are a rich source of protein and minerals particularly for the vegetarian and vegan population. However, several anti-nutritional compounds, such as trypsin inhibitor, phenolic compounds, phytates, cyanogenic compounds, lectins and saponins are also found in the legumes. Most of the anti-nutritional compounds of the pulses are present in the seed coat. Most of these compounds are sensitive to heat and can be substantially reduced by milling, cooking, germination, fermentation and heat processing. This r… Show more

“…There are several other non-nutrient bioactive compounds in plants; examples include oligosaccharides, phytic acids, trypsin inhibitors, tannins, saponins, lectins, and oxalate in legumes [ 59 ]. They are chemicals that play a role in the natural defense mechanism of plants against pathogens, insects, and pests, and the amounts vary among different plant genotypes and growing environments [ 60 , 61 ].…”

“…Oligosaccharides may induce flatulence but are also considered prebiotics. Both phytic acids and phenolic compounds can reduce protein and carbohydrate digestibility and mineral bioavailability; however, they demonstrate antioxidant activities and anti-cancer properties [ 59 , 63 ].…”

“…Cooking is an effective method to minimize phytates in legumes (Yadav, Kaur, et al., 2019). Other methods (e.g., soaking, roasting, and germination) that may affect the content of phytates have been summarized in a recent review article (Kumar et al., 2021). Whether or not the ingestion of adzuki bean‐derived products affects the mineral bioavailability remains to be studied.…”

“…Antinutritional properties have an adverse effect on the food digestion in the light of the food classes, such as protein and carbohydrates, and decrease the bioavailability of minerals, such as iron and zinc [49,54,55]. The reported components of such in Strychnos spinosa were low and below the established toxic level [56,57].…”
