Description
Tatjana Đorđević and three co-authors review plant by-products as sources of blood sugar lowering compounds in this 2026 paper. Farms and food plants throw away peels, husks, and bran in huge amounts. Those scraps carry polyphenols, active proteins, and fibers that can blunt blood sugar rises. The review weighs them as raw material for diabetes care and functional foods. It also weighs the economics of collecting and processing them.
Named sources include wheat bran, oat husks, and fruit peels. The authors cover how these compounds act in the body, and the open questions on absorption, safety, and dose. Turning waste into a health product cuts disposal burdens at the same time. They also look at artificial intelligence as a tool to standardize the search for active scraps. The review frames farm waste as a sustainable supply line for glycemic control, with hurdles still to clear.
