Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.): A Prospective Legume Crop to Offer Multiple Health Benefits Under Changing Climate

Abstract: Peanut is a multipurpose oil-seed legume, which offer benefits in many ways. Apart from the peanut plant's beneficial effects on soil quality, peanut seeds are nutritious and medicinally and economically important. In this review, insights into peanut origin and its domestication are provided. Peanut is rich in bioactive components, including phenolics, flavonoids, polyphenols, and resveratrol. In addition, the involvement of peanut in biological nitrogen fixation is highly significant. Recent reports regardin… Show more

“…Flaxseeds contain Ω-3 fatty acid, αlinoleic acid (ALA) and other bioactive compounds that have been associated with improving the lipid profile (Machado et al, 2013). Almonds have also been found to contain phytosterols which on ingestion mimic the structural and functional properties of cholesterol and compete with low-density-lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and contribute to reduced serum LDL-C within blood vessels (Akram et al, 2018). These features have been associated with improving the lipid profile and management of dyslipidemia for PCOS subjects.…”

“…Peanut ( Arachis hypogea L.) is widely cultivated due to its high nutritional value. The major constituents of peanut are oil (36–54%), protein (16–36%), and carbohydrates (10.5–20%) (Akram, Shafiq, & Ashraf, 2018; Davis et al, 2016). In addition, peanut is cholesterol free, contains 13 different vitamins (Isanga & Zhang, 2007) and 26 essential trace minerals (Ayoola, Adeyeye, & Onawumi, 2012; Mao, Srzednicki, & Driscoll, 2012).…”
