Cork fruit contains many important biological compounds such as flavonoids, phenolics and triterpenoids.
Notably, extracts from jicama also recorded significant levels of flavonoids and phenolic, along with strong antimicrobial activity.
These compounds are of great significance to kidney health, because according to many international studies, flavonoids and polyphenols have the ability to neutralize free radicals, reduce oxidative stress, and protect cells from damage.
These are the fundamental mechanisms that help slow down the progression of chronic kidney diseases.
The kidney is an organ under great pressure from the blood filtration and detoxification process. When the body accumulates many free radicals, kidney tissue is easily damaged, leading to impaired function.
Studies around the world (published widely in PubMed and nutritional journals) have shown that polyphenols help reduce inflammation and improve microcirculation in glomerules;
Flavonoids have the ability to protect kidney cell membranes;
Triterpenoids such as lupeol have strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.
In which, lupeol - a compound isolated from *bần* tree has been shown to have many biological properties, including protecting tissues from inflammation damage.
Research on Barringtonia acutangula leaf extract shows the ability to significantly increase antioxidant activity, opening up applications in protecting cells from oxidative stress. This is an indirect but very important mechanism for the kidneys.
Ban fruit is often processed into sour fish soup cooked with ban, ban water stewed.
The common feature of these dishes is that they are rich in water, slightly sour and low in fat, helping to support the urine excretion process, support the kidneys to eliminate waste, and reduce filtering pressure on the kidneys.
In addition, a diet rich in plants and natural fruits as recommended by international health organizations can help control blood pressure and blood sugar, thereby indirectly protecting kidney function.
It can be seen that cork fruit contains many valuable biological compounds such as flavonoids, polyphenols and triterpenoids.
Initial scientific evidence shows that these active ingredients have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and cell-protective properties, thereby indirectly supporting kidney function.
However, its effectiveness is only effective when used in a healthy, balanced diet and combined with controlling risk factors such as high blood pressure and diabetes.
