Development of sustainable novel foods and beverages based on coffee by-products for chronic diseases
Obesity and type 2 diabetes have reached epidemic proportions in the past few years. The market of functional foods has greatly increased for the reduction of risk of chronic diseases. Coffee is one of the most frequently consumed drinks worldwide and large amounts of coffee wastes need to be recycled in order to reduce its environmental impact. Coffee by-products contain appreciable amounts of bioactive nutrients exerting health promoting properties. Therefore, the valorization of coffee wastes represents a great opportunity for the sustainability of the coffee sector and the industry of functional beverages and foods for chronic diseases.
