Plants from Arid Zones of Mexico: Bioactive Compounds and Potential Use for Food Production by Isabel Márquez-Rangel, Mario Cruz, Alberto A. Neira-Vielma, Sonia N. Ramírez-Barrón, Pedro Aguilar-Zarate, Ruth Belmares

“…This has led to an opportunity to study arid zone plants as food sources that have potential biological activities and improve consumer health. (2) Methods: In this work, we review recent research focused on the traditional use and importance of arid zone plants, their nutritional contribution, and their beneficial effects on health when they are consumed; these effects are primarily because of their antioxidant activity, which inhibits free radicals and contributes to improved nutrition and benefits consumer health. (3) Results: Several plant-based functional food studies have shown that the consumption of bioactive compounds is a complement to drugs for preventing some chronic degenerative diseases, such as gastrointestinal diseases, diabetes, and obesity. (4) Conclusions: Given all of the previously mentioned factors, plants from arid zones are potential sources for obtaining bioactive compounds with low water requirements.…”
