Critical Analysis of Wheat Bran as Therapeutic Source

Abstract

Increasing population now-a-days is one of the most crucial phases of upcoming future troubles. Food wastage along with the nutritional expenditure should not be entertained. Several milling by-products of crops viz., wheat bran, are principle pool of nutrients. It is very much essential to study and gain knowledge about the nutrients, anti-oxidants, anti-nutritional components and their effect upon diseased condition along with the probability of production of edible food stuffs for human. Though there is enough production of wheat bran, most of the amount is either wasted or used as livestock fed. It has been shown that bran part has potential efficiency to be used as therapeutic tool for various diseases such as, cancer, obesity and diabetes, bowel irritation etc. Its role as a prebiotic might also prove an asset to remarkably influence gut microflora. Its antinutritional content is also lower than the rice bran and that is also manageable for the further use as food stuff. The physicochemical properties along with its nutrient as well as anti-nutrient contents must be utilized and regulated as requirement to combat malnourishment besides hunger issues and therapies.

A Robust Audio Steganography Method Using Partial Knight Tour for Concealing Messages of Text and Image

“…Generally, audio steganography techniques are classified as spatial domain and transform domain [6]. This classification is shown in The spatial domain techniques include several techniques such as LSB, parity coding and Echo hiding.…”

Utilization of agro-industrial by-products in Monascus fermentation: a review

“…In the cereal milling process, bran that makes up approximately 10% of the grain is produced as a by-product. Based on the cereal production data, the annual global production potential for rice, barley, wheat, sorghum, and corn brans are 48, 14, 9.5, 6, and 100 million tons, respectively (Alauddin et al 2017 ; Chakraborty and Budhwar 2019 ; Statista 2020 ). Cereal bran is generally light brown powder.…”

Antidiabetic properties of rice and wheat bran—A review

“…The fractions of bran include pericarp, Testa, hyaline, and aleurone layers. According to nutritional point of view, the wheat bran obtained after milling of grains are highly rich in different nutrients like, fiber, vitamin B6, thiamine, folate and vitamin E, sterols, and antioxidants including bioactive compounds like, alkyl resorcinol, ferulic acid, flavonoids, carotenoids, and lignans, which are also known as phytochemicals (Table 2), and therefore the usage of wheat bran for human consumption has gradually increased (Chakraborty & Budhwar, 2019;Panhwar, Akbar, Ali, Yang, & Feng, 2018 (Mudgil & Barak, 2019). Dietary fiber present in wheat bran helps in gut health maintenance and easy digestion, prevents colon-related diseases in our body and also colon cancer, reduce bowel problems, cholesterol problems, and also combat diabetes (Deroover et al, 2020;Jefferson & Adolphus, 2019).…”

“…The available by‐products such as husk and bran can also be used in health complications and therapeutic purposes, and thus have multiple values. (Chakraborty & Budhwar, 2019; Martins & Ferreira, 2017).…”
