contains \(\beta\)-carotene (24.3 ug/g) and \(\alpha\)-carotene (22 ug/g). Alpha-carotene produces 50% of vitamin A, while beta-carotene is the most powerful caroten, which produces vitamin A in the small intestine. Vitamin A is an essential micronutrient that plays an important role in a wide array of physiologic processes, including vision, immune response, cell differentiation and proliferation, intercellular communication, and reproduction [66]. Higher levels of phenolic compounds were detected in the BO + IN (49.52 uM TEAC/100 g) and BO7.0 (45.80 uM TEAC/100 g) beverages, which were probably derived from the bocaiiiva powder-pulp. All phenolic compound contents in the beverages of the present study were higher than those reported for soymilk supplemented with pineapple, mango, and passion fruit (18.9 uM TEAC/100 g) [67]. The quantification of total phenolic compounds suggests the compounds produced by the shikimic acid route including simple phenylpropanoids, phenolic acids, and isoflav. In the present work, the content of phenolic compounds can be associated with both the presence of soybean [68] and the presence of bocaiiiva [52]. The antioxidant activity of the beverages appeared to be related to supplementation of inulin and/or bocaiiiva powder-pulp because all formulations containing these ingredients had a higher value compared to CONT beverage, demonstrating that it may be related to the presence of phenolic compounds that demonstrated the same behavior.
