Jackfruit Effects on Adipokines and Cognition in Boxers

This study investigates the effects of jackfruit oil extract on adipokine levels (Irisin, Omentin-1), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), cognitive performance, and body measurements in healthy young boxers aged 18-25. Participants were randomly assigned to four groups receiving different doses of jackfruit oil extract (0, 100, 200, 300 mg/kg) or no supplement. Saliva samples, cognitive tests, and body measurements were collected at the start of the study and after 30 days to evaluate the outcomes.
