Functional Properties of Campomanesia xanthocarpa Infusions: Phenolic Profile, Digestive Stability, Enzyme Inhibition, and Glycemic Effects
This study investigated the functional potential of Campomanesia xanthocarpa leaf and fruit infu- sions through phytochemical profiling, simulated gastrointestinal digestion, enzyme inhibition assays, and in vivo evaluation of glycemic markers. Leaf infusions exhibited a more diverse phenolic profile, higher total phenolic content, and greater antioxidant capacity compared to fruit infusions. Simulated digestion confirmed the bioaccessibility of key phenolic compounds, particularly...
