Edible crops are composed of macronutrients, micronutrients, and anti-nutritional factors. Anti-nutritional factors can interact with nutrients, resulting in a reduction in the bioavailability of these nutrients. Several methods can be employed to decrease the presence of antinutrient elements, including processing processes like autoclaving, debranding, fermentation, soaking, and germination. The integration of various methodologies has the potential to reduce the presence of antinutrients in food items. Numerous botanical species possess bioactive chemicals that have medicinal properties and serve various additional purposes. Tannins are a class of anti-nutritional compounds that are present in a variety of fruits, vegetables, and tea. The substance possesses a distinctly acrid flavor and can be employed for food preservation, leather production, and as a natural coloring agent. Phytic acid possesses various applications within the realm of the food sector. Further investigation is required to comprehensively comprehend the intricate health implications of ANFs, as well as to devise innovative strategies for mitigating their adverse consequences while preserving their advantageous attributes. The research conducted by ANF exhibits considerable promise and is seeing notable growth, thereby aiding scientists in improving the nutritional value of food and discovering innovative therapeutic solutions.
