Protective effects of bitter gourd against cardiovascular diseases
Author(s): Sophie Brown
Abstract: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The search for natural remedies to combat CVDs has led to increased interest in the health benefits of bitter gourd (Momordica charantia L.), a medicinal plant known for its antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. This review paper aims to explore the protective effects of bitter gourd against cardiovascular diseases by examining its bioactive compounds, mechanisms of action, and evidence from clinical and preclinical studies. The findings suggest that bitter gourd holds significant potential in the prevention and management of CVDs, warranting further research and clinical trials to validate its efficacy and safety.
