Nutritional Potential, Phytochemical Content, In Vivo Antioxidant, and Antanemic Potential of Musa paradisiaca Flower

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
After collecting Musa paradisiaca leaves, some were dried and others were used to produce aqueous extracts. The extracts and powders were characterized and then administered to rats made anaemic by PHZ. After 14 days of administration of the two samples, the rats were euthanized and it was observed that after 9 days of treatment, the aqueous extract ...

Fermentation‐Induced Modulation of Polyphenolic Contents and Medicinal Activities in Annona squamosa Seeds

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
The study compared the medicinal activities of polyphenols from fermented and unfermented seeds of Annona squamosa. The polyphenols were extracted and subjected to standard analysis. The major phenolic components of the fermented polyphenols and the unfermented polyphenols were found to be 4‐hydroxybenzoic and 4‐hydroxyphenylacetic acid, respectively ...

Dietary and biomarker‐guided strategies as supportive measures in the fragile X syndrome

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract The fragile X syndrome (FXS) is an inherited neurodevelopmental disorder that primarily affects males, often resulting in an IQ below 55, while about two‐thirds of females also experience intellectual disability. Physical features may include an elongated face, prominent ears, finger joint laxity, and enlarged testes in males.
