الملخص EN
Starchy roots and tuber crops play a pivotal role in the human diet.
There are number of roots and tubers which make an extensive biodiversity even within the same geographical location.
Thus, they add variety to the diet in addition to offering numerous desirable nutritional and health benefits such as antioxidative, hypoglycemic, hypocholesterolemic, antimicrobial, and immunomodulatory activities.
A number of bioactive constituents such as phenolic compounds, saponins, bioactive proteins, glycoalkaloids, and phytic acids are responsible for the observed effects.
Many starchy tuber crops, except the common potatoes, sweet potatoes, and cassava, are not yet fully explored for their nutritional and health benefits.
In Asian countries, some edible tubers are also used as traditional medicinal.
A variety of foods can be prepared using tubers and they may also be used in industrial applications.
Processing may affect the bioactivities of constituent compounds.
Tubers have an immense potential as functional foods and nutraceutical ingredients to be explored in disease risk reduction and wellness.
