“…These natural compounds are generally broadly represented in the plant kingdom and show valuable activities related to their antioxidant actions, coupled to a possible enzyme inhibitory effect. As reported in the literature [16][17][18], these compounds are also well known to exert these functions not only through occasional uptake, but also specifically by means of a "chronic" and daily consumption in the diet.…”

Phenolic compounds are secondary metabolites that are found ubiquitously in plants, fruits, and vegetables. Many studies have shown that regular consumption of these compounds could have a positive effect on our health. The aim of this study was to compare the phytochemical contents of the water extracts from three different plants used as folk remedies in Turkey: Aesculus hippocastanum, Olea europaea, and Hypericum perforatum. A liquid chromatography-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS) analysis was performed to explore the phenolic profiles. The biological activities of these extracts were also evaluated in terms of their antioxidant activities (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl DPPH, 2,2′-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid ABTS, Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power Assay FRAP, cupric ion reducing antioxidant capacity CUPRAC, β-carotene, phosphomolybdenum, and metal chelating) and enzyme inhibitory properties (against acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase, and tyrosinase). The aqueous extract of H. perforatum showed the highest levels of total phenolic, flavonoid, and saponin contents. Protocatechuic acid, vanillic acid, verbascoside, hesperidin, hyperoside, apigenin 7-hexosides, and quercetin were the most common compounds found in this species. The results confirm that A. hippocastanum, O. europaea, and H. perforatum represent a potential source of natural-derived molecules with positive properties that could be used as valid starting point for new food supplements, and drugs in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries.

“…In another recent study, sitosterol, campesterol, and Δ5-stigmasterol were documented to be the major phytosterol compounds in underutilized legumes, while some seeds had significant amounts of Δ5-avenasterol, Δ5,24-stigmastadienol, and cycloartenol [47]. Legumes such as chickpea were reported to have the presence of phytosterols such as campesterol, β-sitosterol, and stigmasterol [4]. In peanut varieties, Valencia peanuts contained the highest levels of phytosterol content along with peanut flour, with content in the range of 0.55 to 0.6 mg g À1 [32].…”

Legume seeds have been recognized for their nutritional and health benefits in human diet and have an important role to play as sustainable food sources. Their importance lies in the fact that they have the presence of different types of bioactive compounds. These compounds can be mainly classified under phenolic compounds, phytosterols, oligosaccharides, resistant starch, and saponins, having good impact on health as well as disease resistance of individuals. Major phenolic compounds in legumes can be categorized into phenolic acids, flavonoids, and condensed tannins. Bioactive compounds are firstly extracted, followed by
