Soursop, scientifically known as Annona muricata, has attracted considerable attention for its ample health benefits and unique flavor. At Soursop Nutrition by BeMe-Beyond Medicine, we’ve harnessed the power of this tropical fruit to create a range of supplements that offer a convenient way to enjoy its numerous advantages. But if you’ve been following us for long enough, you might be wondering just how we manage to get all the nutrients and goodness of this super fruit into our gummies. In this article, we’ll tell you just that.
The Nutritional Profile of Soursop
Soursop is a nutrient-dense fruit packed with vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds that contribute to its health-promoting properties. When making the gummies, or our shakes, our main goal is to extract these nutrients from the leaves of the soursop and concentrate them. These nutrients include:
- Vitamin C: Soursop is rich in vitamin C, a potent antioxidant that supports the immune system, aids in collagen production, and protects cells from oxidative stress. Research published in the Journal of Food Science highlights the role of soursop’s high antioxidant capacity in enhancing immune function and reducing illness risk.
- B Vitamins: The fruit provides essential B vitamins, including B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), and B3 (niacin). These vitamins are crucial for energy production, brain function, and the synthesis of DNA and red blood cells. Findings from the Journal of Natural Products emphasize how soursop’s B vitamin content supports both immunity and energy metabolism.
- Phytonutrients: Soursop contains unique compounds such as acetogenins, alkaloids, and flavonoids. Acetogenins, specific to soursop, have been studied for their potential anti-cancer properties, although findings remain untested as of yet. However, more conclusive research points to their ability to help neutralize free radicals and reduce oxidative damage, as detailed in research from the Journal of Medicinal Food. Additionally, phytochemicals in soursop protect cells and support immune function, as noted in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology.
