Abstract
Increasing global population along with malnutrition is a crucial matter of concern worldwide. Worldwide population of 7.6 billion is expected to touch the bar of 8.6 billion by 2030 and 11.2 billion in 2100 according to ongoing studies. Wastage of food is believed to be one of the major causes of hunger issue in upcoming future beside imbalanced nutritional status, though decline of stunting and wasting have been observed in past few years. Due to lack of untapped knowledge regarding resourceful agricultural products they are not exploited properly. Development of economically sustainable approach towards food security is much appreciated to manage malnutrition. Proper usage and consumption of the underutilized legumes in regular diet along with normal food can be a suitable and potential replacement of synthetic drugs taken frequently. The major points in this manuscript are the compared analysis of the nutrient as well as anti- nutrient composition of legumes along with their nutraceutical properties. Exploitation of such health beneficial factors present in legumes through value addition can be a revolutionary turn towards health management.
