“…Thus, carotenoids in the mammalian body are involved in the regulation of adipose tissue metabolism and inflammation, affect the reduction of body weight and total cholesterol levels and increase high-density lipoprotein content, as found in the study by Dutta et al (2023). In addition, Cao et al (2021) proved that the carotenoid astaxanthin, which is associated with the regulation of redox reactions, helps reduce oxidative stress, inflammation, and cell death, and increases lipid metabolism.…”

“…The unconsumed derivatives of food processing techniques contain a significant number of unutilized resources including carotenoids. In 2022, Dutta et al [ 49 ] summarized several studies focused on the usage of different food wastes, like the pulp and peels of tomato, carrot, and sweet potato roots, rich in carotenoids. According to the researchers, carotenoids extracted from food wastes by green extraction technologies could be integrated into the daily diet.…”

Oxidative stress, an imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and endogenous antioxidants, plays an important role in the development of neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s. The human brain is vulnerable to oxidative stress because of the high rate of oxygen that it needs and the high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are substrates of lipid peroxidation. Natural antioxidants inhibit oxidation and reduce oxidative stress, preventing cancer, inflammation, and neurodegenerative disorders. Furthermore, in the literature, it is reported that antioxidants, due to their possible neuroprotective activity, may offer an interesting option for better symptom management, even Parkinson’s disease (PD). Natural antioxidants are usually found in several foods, such as fruits, vegetables, meat, fish, and oil, and in food wastes, such as seeds, peels, leaves, and skin. They can help the system of endogenous antioxidants, protect or repair cellular components from oxidative stress, and even halt lipid, protein, and DNA damage to neurons. This review will examine the extent of knowledge from the last ten years, about the neuroprotective potential effect of natural antioxidants present in food and food by-products, in in vivo and in vitro PD models. Additionally, this study will demonstrate that the pool of dietary antioxidants may be an important tool in the prevention of PD and an opportunity for cost savings in the public health area.

“…The deficiency of vitamin A has become a great threat public health issue beside xerophthalmia which is affecting 120 million children and can be prevented through additional vitamin A or carotenoids. This situation results in increase of 80% of demand in developing countries (Dutta et al, 2022). The lack of carotenoids, the precursors of and vitamin A deficiency and health issues can be addressed through nutritional intervention strategies.…”
