Nonetheless, identifying sustainable sources of biologically safe EVs remains challenging. This chapter delves into the utilization of fermented food industry by-products as a circular and secure reservoir of biocompatible EVs, dubbed as BP-EVs. BP-EVs demonstrate excellent oral bioavailability and biodistribution, with negligible cytotoxicity, and a preferential targeting capacity toward the central nervous system, liver, and skeletal tissues. The ease of editing BP-EVs is also depicted using the most common EV editing methods in this chapter. Globally, these groundbreaking findings are poised to unlock significant avenues for leveraging BP-EVs as an optimal source of biocompatible nanovesicles across a wide array of applications within the bioeconomy and biomedical fields. These applications primarily target molecule delivery into the central nervous system and skeletal tissue but are not limited to these two organism systems.
