Food producers are scouring for substitute sweeteners in food products because of the change of consumer discernment on the absorption of sucrose. Due to the composite mixture of characteristics surviving within sucrose in terms of its taste and textural features, recreating it within a low calorie sweetener is frequently a demanding task. The gustatory system is the primary tool for evaluating sweet flavors, most desired by all categories of age, especially children. Consumer behavioral shifts toward vegan ingredients due to various reasons for global food shortfalls and awareness campaigns have diverted global health organizations' and food industrialists' attention toward vegan sweeteners to sweeten the tongue in a more natural manner with low or zero caloric products. Furthermore, recent advances in the phytoceutical attributes of food ingredients and higher yields with green approaches have gained importance, with a low loss of nutrients in waste.

Seventy percent of the territory of Uzbekistan consists of arid regions. This situation is considered very favorable for plants adapted to a desert climate. Medicinal plants distributed in the arid regions of Uzbekistan have not been studied much. Medicinal plants are considered inexpensive, yet are vital for the lives of local residents. They play a very important role in the traditional healing of ailments. To determine the current state of medicinal plants and enhance their subsequent protection and sustainable use, it is necessary to obtain annual information on the state of their distribution, their population size, and the impact of negative factors on their populations. Based on our field studies, which were conducted during the period from 2012 to 2022 in the arid regions of Uzbekistan, we updated the checklists of the main medicinal plants used in these regions. A total of 529 medicinal species belonging to 70 families and 269 genera were identified in the study region. Several species, including Peganum harmala L., Capparis spinosa L., Ferula foetida (Bunge) Regel, Glycyrrhiza glabra L., Alhagi pseudalhagi (M. Bieb.) Desv. ex Wangerin, Lagochilus inebrians Bunge, Xanthium strumarium L., Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn., Onopordum acanthium L., Ziziphora tenuior L., and Cichorium intybus L., are spread over large areas and have been used regularly by the locals since ancient times. These species are common in saline and degraded soils in arid regions of Uzbekistan. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with tabibs (traditional doctors), elders, herders, and residents with experience in traditional healing using medicinal plants. The medicinal value of most plants was based on the interviews with representatives of the local population, which were useful for understanding traditional healing skills and customer service skills.
