Assessment of Phytochemical Compounds and Antioxidant Potential of West Indian Avocado (Persea americana) Peel From Substandard‐Quality Fruits as a Valorisation Strategy

Phytochemicals in Food and Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 4, December 2026.
West Indian avocado peels discarded because of low‐commercial‐quality were evaluated as a source of bioactive compounds. Avocado peels contained high levels of phenolic compounds and showed strong antioxidant capacity. These results support avocado peel valorisation within functional foods, circular and sustainable food systems.
