“…Cashew apple contains water (83.6 g 100 g -1 ) and nutritional substances such as vitamin C (126 mg 100 g -1 to 372 mg 100 g -1 ), which is 6 to 7 times higher than in citrus fruits, dietary fiber (312 mg), carbohydrates (11.1 g), and calcium (0.9 mg 100 g -1 to 21.4 mg 100 g -1 ) (Damasceno et al, 2008;Bhakyaraj and Singaravad, 2012); cashew apple should be able to serve as a good source of energy (Cristina et al, 2012;Honorato et al, 2007). Rich in bioactive compounds of polyphenols (gallic acid, protocatechuic acid, cryptoxanthin, zeinoxanthin, and lutein 214.8 mg 100 mL -1 to 215.1 mg 100 mL -1 ) and organic acids (malic, citric, and lactic acids 0.1 g 100 g -1 to 0.36 g 100 g -1 (Sucupira et al, 2020), tannins 0.22 g 100 g -1 to 0.58 g 100 g -1 (Sobhana and Mathew, 2015), carotene 0.03 mg 100 g -1 to 0.74 mg 100 g -1 (Lopes et al, 2012), anacardic acid 1.1 g (Nambelaa et al, 2022), the fruit is therefore packed with antioxidants (Andayanie et al, 2019;Laddha et al, 2020). Specifically, chemically active components of ascorbic acid, anacardic acid, carotenoids, condensed tannins, quercetin, and other phenolic compounds are essential in anti-mutagenic mechanism (Onuh et al, 2017;Setyobudi et al 2019) with an ability to stimulate DNA repair or reverse DNA damage.…”

The cashew apple (Anacardium occidental L.) is a tropical fruit that is a byproduct of the cashew nut processing industry. Rich in vitamins, polyphenols, sugars, minerals, amino acids, and dietary fiber, it contains bioactive compounds and several active components (ascorbic acid, anacardic acid, carotenoids, condensed tannins, quercetin, and other phenolic) that serve as antioxidants. This study aims to determine the effect of giving cashew apple juice and its nutritional impact on Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus -Berkenhout 1769). The study adopted 21 male Wistar rats for 7 d fed with AIN 76 (American Institute of Nutrition 1976) diet, divided into three groups of seven rats. The first group was administered with fresh cashew apple juice treatment 0.14 % (CAJT 0.14 %), the second group with cashew apple juice 0.12 % (CAJT 0.12 %), and the last group with aquadest (Placebo) per day orally for 28 d. Employing an experimental method, variables of protein using Kjeldahl method, starch using the direct acid hydrolysis method, and calcium levels in the feces of experimental rats were observed. The data was obtained through analysis of variance, and differences among samples were tested using Least Significant Different (LSD). The results showed that CAJT 0.14 % significantly reduced protein digestibility (11.49 %) and starch feed (0.69 %) as well as weight rate by 78.85 g (38.34 %) while increased calcium excretion (0.44 %). CAJT 0.12 % followed at 11.36 %, 0.68%, 38.64 % (88.74 g), and 0.44 % respectively. Placebo was not affective towards research variables. The effect of consuming cashew apple juice regarding nutrient digestibility shows its potential for a commercial process as a functional food and a slimming agent, which answers the environmental need for waste utilization.

“…Therefore, the lowest feed protein content of 17 % for cross-breed local chickens aged 0 mo to 2 mo should be of the highest nutrition contents. Laddha et al, 2020). Specifically, chemically active components of ascorbic acid, anacardic acid, carotenoids, condensed tannins, quercetin, and other phenolic compounds are essential in anti-mutagenic mechanism (Onuh et al, 2017; with an ability to stimulate DNA repair or reverse DNA damage.…”

“…These are hydroxylated phenolic compounds and are known to be produced by the plants in response to microbial infection. The plant-derived flavonoids induce activities of human protective enzymes 21 . The polypodine B 20, 22-acetonide, 20-p-hydroxyecdysone, bsitosterol, stigmasterol and campesterol were isolated and identified from aerial parts of T. cordifolia.…”

Natural products with medicinal value are becoming increasingly important in food preservation. Tinospora cordifolia, a plant commonly known as Guduchi, is highly beneficial in the medicinal field and has been used for centuries to treat various diseases. Due to the discovery of active components in Tinospora species and their potential for disease control, this plant has gained interest across the globe. Various pharmacological characteristics such as antioxidant, hepatoprotective, neuroprotective, antidiabetic and analgesic antitumor activities support its medicinal properties making it a promising herb with various health benefits. These biological activities of Tinospora species can be attributed due to the presence of a wide range of phytoconstituents, including alkaloids, flavonoids, lignans, Furano diterpene glucosides and sterols. The clinical importance of Tinospora cordifolia is included in this review to investigate its potential uses as an ingredient for the food industry. The future scope of the review remains in exploiting and isolating antimicrobial compounds to enable new and effective formulations in food preservation.
