三、以下是三項經臨床研究證實的主要功效:
改善胃食道逆流症狀:一項隨機雙盲、安慰劑對照的臨床試驗發現,油甘果能顯著減少非侵蝕性胃食道逆流患者的火燒心和胃酸逆流頻率,並改善其嚴重程度。(Karkon Varnosfaderani et al., 2018)
降低心血管疾病風險:系統性綜述與薈萃分析顯示,補充油甘果可顯著降低成人的低密度脂蛋白膽固醇(LDL-C)、總膽固醇和三酸甘油酯,同時提高高密度脂蛋白膽固醇(HDL-C),有助於改善心血管健康。(Setayesh et al., 2023; 鄭等,2016),跟日本研究出納豆類似降高血脂、血糖功能,但是機制不同。。
抗氧化與抗老化作用:研究指出,油甘果富含多酚類化合物,具有強大的抗氧化能力,能減少自由基對細胞的損傷,延緩皮膚老化過程。(Chaikul et al., 2021)
