ملخص البحث:

Betalains are water-soluble pigments derived from tyrosine. They are found almost exclusively in the Caryophyllales family. They can be classified into two major groups; red-violet betacyanins and yellow-orange betaxanthins. Besides being used as natural colourants instead of artificial dyes, betalains gained a lot of attention as biologically active compounds. This review summarizes the therapeutic effects of betalains in human health, including the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, neuroprotective and cardiovascular-protective effects
