https://doi.org/10.32870/rayca.v0i0.106Keywords:
Rubus, antioxidants, phytochemicals, sustainability, industrial use.Abstract
The Rubus genus includes plants from the Rosaceae family, such as blackberries and raspberries, known for their antioxidant bioactive compounds with positi-ve effects on human health. This work describes the nutritional composition and antioxidant bioactive compounds of the Rubus genus, as well as its health benefits and possible industrial uses to take advantage of waste. The review highlights the biological active-ties of Rubus in the prevention of prevalent comor-bidities such as metabolic diseases, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, immune disorders, dyslipidemias, diabetes and hypertension. Scientific documents are compiled and demonstrate the potential uses of Rubus and its compounds in human health and the food industry, reducing waste and obtaining benefits from its components. The need for more clinical studies is mentioned to fully understand the effectiveness of dietary and pharmacological interventions with Rubus and its bioactive compounds, as well as their dosage.
