Effect of Lychee Peel and Seed Flour Consumption on the Anti/Pro-Oxidant System and Cardiomyocyte Contractile Function
The treatments with lychee peel and seed flour showed no significant effects on anti/pro-oxidant parameters. However, lychee peel flour demonstrated notable effectiveness in reducing myocardial relaxation time in a T2DMOb model. These results suggest that while the antioxidant properties of lychee seed and peel flours were not significantly altered, lychee peel flour may have specific therapeutic potential to improve cardiac function in T2DMOb.
