Red onions are one of the most consumed vegetable crops in Egypt, their peel is rich in antioxidants that reduce the risk of diabetes and weight is lost. The study aimed to extract bioactive compounds present in Egyptian Red Onion Peels Waste (ROPE), increasing their efficiency and protecting them using nano-encapsulation as new emerging technology. There were no studies available on the benefits of red onion peels specifically for weight loss but in general, onion peels may contribute to reducing the risk of obesity. It was found that the consumption of nutritional supplements of peel extracts rich in quercetin is associated with a decrease in body weight and the proportion of fat in the body as indicated by a preliminary study conducted on obese or overweight mice, the results of which were published in Nutrition research and practice in 2016. Onion, scientifically known as Allium Cepa, is a perennial subterranean plant belonging to the family Amaryllidaceae. It's also commonly referred to as bulb onion and common onion. Onion is well known across the world as a staple food, growing in Asia, Europe, Africa, and America.Red onion peel, which has a higher content of pharmacologically important phytochemicals, has unfortunately not achieved the same prominence as the yellow ones. Red onion peels owe their hue to anthocyanins which are considered to be the most biologically antioxidant active compounds. Anthocyanins are glycosides of 2-phenyl benzopyrylium salts consisting of rhamnose, glucose, xylose, arabinose, rutinose and galactose 11. Also, acylated and non-acylated anthocyanins such as cyanidin mono-and diglucosides, cyanidin 3-laminaribiose, peonidin mono-and diglucoside, petunidin glucoside and 5-carboxypyranocyanidin 3-glucoside have been documented to occur in red onion peels 12.
