Antidiabetic (α-amylase and α-glucosidase) and anti-obesity (lipase) inhibitory activities of edible cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) as measured by in vitro gastrointestinal digestion: effects of phenolics and harvested time

Edible cassava leaves (Manihot esculenta) were consumed as vegetables for their bioactive compounds, however the effect of harvesting time on these bioactive compounds and their antidiabetic and anti-obesity inhibitory activities were scarcely reported in the literature. Phenolics from edible leaves...

Description
Summary:Edible cassava leaves (Manihot esculenta) were consumed as vegetables for their bioactive compounds, however the effect of harvesting time on these bioactive compounds and their antidiabetic and anti-obesity inhibitory activities were scarcely reported in the literature. Phenolics from edible leaves harvested at different times were assessed using HPLC-DAD, and their antidiabetic and anti-obesity inhibitory activities were investigated before and after in vitro gastrointestinal digestion. The results showed a significant (P
