Emerging etiological perspectives locate the disease's aggressiveness within the gut-uterus axis, identifying dysbiosis and \"estrobolome\" dysregulation, specifically bacterial β-glucuronidase hyperactivity, as mechanisms that sustain hormonal recycling and chronic inflammation. This integrative review (2015–2025) investigated the biotechnological feasibility of repurposing apple (Malus domestica) waste into therapeutic inputs. Screening across PubMed, SciELO, and ScienceDirect databases revealed that agro-industrial fruit by-products act as reservoirs of pectin and ursolic acid. When subjected to solid-state fermentation by Lactobacillus plantarum, these compounds undergo bioconversion, yielding metabolites that inhibit the NF-κB inflammatory pathway and restore the intestinal barrier. We conclude that formulating a symbiotic from this environmental liability aligns with Bioeconomy and One Health principles, offering the SUS a cost-effective, highly scalable prophylactic tool for complementary endometriosis management in Primary Care.\nFiles\n8 IJMPR 1982.pdf\nFiles\n(300.0 kB)\n| Name | Size | Download all |\n|---|---|---|\n|\nmd5:100b0d92f1c98fada22249c1eccc783e\n|\n300.0 kB | Preview Download |","source_license":"CC0","license_restricted":false}
