The tropical fruit plant extracts have neuroprotective and antioxidant properties

Plant extracts obtained from by-products generated during the production, handling and processing of tropical fruits have neuroprotective and antioxidant properties. The case of mango, cherimoya and avocado grown in the Andalusian coast. For this reason, the Spanish biotechnology firms and INNOFOOD Neuron BPh involved in a project to implement the plant extracts in functional foods.

The project, called "Neuro" Extract "will design a process of integrated utilization of byproducts generated during the production of those tropical fruits," as well as increase the overall value of the raw material will reduce the environmental problem of the generation of waste during production. "

The most advanced results obtained so far have tested the neuroprotective and antioxidant activity of compounds from the leaf of mango, which are of special interest as a potential therapy after stroke episodes. In this regard, Neuron BPh has emphasized that a patent protecting the use of an active ingredient extracted from the mango as a neuroprotectant.

Neuron BPh and consider INNOFOOD still "too early to determine the final products incorporating these ingredients, fortified juices could be neuroprotective and antioxidant compounds." As explained by both firms, the power optimization through functional ingredients is one of the main challenges to prevent or treat chronic diseases, especially cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, since it can prevent or delay the onset of drug treatment to control . At the same time, "there is a growing concern in the food industry to find a solution to the problem of waste generation due to the demands of sustainability on the part of consumers."

In the project, with the collaboration of the Technological Corporation of Andalusia (CTA), involving the automation research group, simplification, miniaturization and quality measurement of biochemical processes of the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Córdoba. Research is expected to end in December.

Thanks so much. During winter months, what are some of the ways to best access these? Are some supplements better than others, if we lack access to the real fruits. If you have any suggestions or ideas, I'd love to read them. I appreciate your holistic information Maria. Thank you, again.

Namaste
