ABSTRACT This study examined the effect of biological fluids (saliva, blood plasma, and urine) on the antioxidant capacity of an aqueous extract derived from Arbutus unedo leaves. The extract displayed a concentration‐dependent reducing activity in the ferric reducing power assay (IC50 = 292 ± 7.54 µg/mL) and phosphomolybdenum assays (IC50 = 461.67 ± 4.

A New Vista of Opportunity in Diabetes Management: Natural Product‐Based β‐cell Preservation
Preserving functional β‐cells via natural products offers promising strategy for diabetes treatment. ABSTRACT A defining characteristic of diabetes is β‐cell failure, in which β‐cells cannot modulate insulin secretion to compensate for escalating insulin resistance, pushing forward disease development.

Abstract Background Cassava leaves are a major byproduct of cassava processing and have a low utilization rate. In this study, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Bacillus subtilis were used for solid‐state fermentation of cassava leaves to improve their feed quality. Results After 48 h of fermentation, the feed pH decreased to
