Synergistic Effect of Hesperidin, Acarbose, and Exercise Combination on Neuroinflammation and Neurochemical Alterations in Diabetic Encephalopathy Rat Model

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Diabetic encephalopathy (DME) impairs neurobehavior, neurochemicals, oxidative stress, and inflammation. This study evaluated the effects of hesperidin (HSP), exercise (EX), and acarbose (ACA) alone or combined on diabetic rats. Treatments reduced AChE, BChE, ACE, arginase, ATPDase, 5′‐nucleotidase, ADA, LDH, TBARS, and ROS, while increasing IL‐10, SOD,

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 ...

Chemical Composition, Amino Acids, Phenolic Profiles and Bioavailability of Minerals in Livingstone Potato (Plectranthus esculentus) as Affected by Different Processing Techniques

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Boiling retained the nutrients and polyphenol compounds in Plectranthus esculentus tubers better than frying or roasting. A bioavailability study showed that the phytates and oxalates in the tuber may not affect the bioavailabilities of calcium, zinc, or iron in Plectranthus esculentus tubers when eaten.

GC × GC‐TOF MS and Sensory Profiling of Aroma Compounds in Magnolia Species: Effects of Processing Methods on Volatile Retention in M. wufengensis

Flavour and Fragrance Journal, EarlyView.
The first comparative analysis of Magnolia scents reveals that M. wufengensis is characterised by a high aldehyde content, exhibiting a fresh, sweet, and fruity fragrance profile. Furthermore, freeze‐drying preserves 6.7 times more 2‐nonenal compared to shade‐drying, highlighting its superior efficacy in retaining key volatile compounds.
