In Vitro and In Vivo Antioxidant and Immune Stimulation Activity of Wheat Product Extracts
The present study shows that wheat seeds, flour, chaff, and pasta present anti-inflammatory as well as antioxidant activities and may be considered as prospective positive health agents for the preparation of functional foods. Moreover, the valorization of by-products from agricultural and agro-industrial activities would also have significant implications in terms of circular economy.
