The Effects of Passion Fruit (Passiflora Edulis) Seed Extract For Health Benefit

“…Maruki-Uchida et al (2013) Experimental study High concentrations of piceatannol found in passion fruit seed extract make it a promising ingredient for anti-photoaging cosmetics. Matsui et al (2013) Experimental study It was discovered that the compounds derived from passion fruit seed extracts, specifically piceatannol, were in charge of suppressing melanogenesis and enhancing the production of collagen. Mostefa et al (2023) in Vivo and in Silico Studies More research should be done on the stilbenes from P. edulis seeds, especially the stilbene dimers, as possible neuroprotective candidates.…”

“…Numerous research have been done on the functionality of passion fruit seeds, which are regarded as a useful and nutritious resource (Ramaiya et al, 2018). 88% of the total polyphenols in P. edulis were identified in the seeds, according to an analysis of the polyphenol concentrations in the peel, pulp, and seeds (Yuko Matsui et al, 2013). Stilbenes from P. edulis seeds have been isolated in numerous reports; of these, piceatannol (3,30,4,50-tetrahydroxy-transstilbene) is among the main elements believed to be present in P. edulis seeds (Kawakami et al, 2022).…”
