Buah Lengkeng dan Penggunannya dalam Pengobatan

KESIMPULAN 

Buah lengkeng telah mendapat banyak perhatian dalam beberapa tahun terakhir. Polifenol dan polisakarida pulp lengkeng telah dikonfirmasi memiliki banyak bioaktivitas seperti antioksidan, imunomodulator, antikanker, anti-osteoporosis, prebiotik, peningkatan memori, dan efek ansiolitik. Kulit buah lengkeng memiliki polifenol, flavonoid, dan polisakarida yang melimpah dibandingkan dengan daging buah lengkeng, yang menunjukkan aktivitas antioksidan, anti-tirosinase, anti-hiperglikemik. Ulasan ini diharapkan dapat  memberikan informasi yang komprehensif baik untuk penelitian akademik maupun pengembangan produk nutrisi lengkeng dan produk sampingannya selama pemrosesan
