Paper

Abstract

Rambutan peel is rich in polyphenols such as ellagic acid, corilagin, geraniin, quercetin, and rutin, which contribute to its diverse health benefits, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, hypoglycemic, and potential anticancer properties. The polyphenols present in the rambutan peel demonstrate potential for delaying cellular aging by mitigating oxidative stress within cells. Moreover, no study has systematically explored the anti-aging effects and the underlying mechanisms of polyphenols derived from rambutan peel.

Research summary

Polyphenol extracts from rambutan peel may delay cellular aging by reducing oxidative stress. The paper is relevant as it explores the potential of natural compounds to address the root causes of aging rather than merely treating age-related diseases.
