In this study, researchers from Universiti Putra Malaysia investigated the biological activities of condensed tannins extracted from Leucaena leucocephala hybrid-Rendang, a tropical tree often referred to as “the miracle tree.” The results of their study were published in the journal Food Science and Human Wellness.
Based on these findings, the researchers concluded that CTs can be used as an alternative treatment for various oxidative and inflammatory diseases.
