ABSTRACT

Metabolic syndrome includes obesity, type 2 diabetes (T2D) mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and inflammation showing detrimental result in women and children on the immune response to COVID-19. The plants are the best sources for the production of bioactive compounds like polyphenol, flavonoids, etc. (Keservani and Sharma, 2014). These compounds have properties to improve the functionality of many receptors (insulin IR, AMPK, TNF, and TNFR, cytokine receptor, IL-1, ILR, TNF, TNFR, and PPARG) that can control internal factors (LDL, VLDL, HDL, triglycerides, glucose level, C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocytes, heart rate and blood pressure) which eventually reduces the risk of metabolic syndrome. The processing, digestibility, and functionality of bioactive constituents from plants helps in the consumption of nutraceutical supplements through many government schemes and decreases the cases of metabolic syndrome in many countries.
