Jambul, or Javanese plum, is an evergreen tree that grows in tropical and subtropical regions around the globe. The name "Jambul" is related to the ancient Indian term "Jambudvipa", which literally translates from Sanskrit as "mainland" or "island" (Dvipa), with "Jambu" trees. In a broad sense, Jambudvipa is a "earth layer" or even "earth peace". In Hinduism and Buddhism, this tree is considered sacred, it is called the "fruit of the gods" and is planted on the territories of temples. Jambula seeds and fruits are extremely popular as a natural hypoglycemic agent and are often used for diabetes and other ailments. They are also used to improve digestion and as a diuretic to cleanse the kidneys. In addition, vinegar is made from fermented Jambula fruits in India, and wines, liqueurs and brandies are produced from them in the Philippines, with a pleasant aroma and mild taste.

Detailed information Jambula seeds contain high concentrations of vitamins A and C, in smaller amounts B1, B2, B3, B6, micro and macro elements - iron, calcium, sodium, phosphorus, potassium and magnesium. In addition, ellagic acid and a group of flavonols (kaemferol, myrecetin, isoquercetin), which have numerous useful properties. It is reported that Jambula seeds increase the body's resistance to various infections, reduce the concentration of sugar and LDL cholesterol, and also reduce blood pressure. The hypotensive effect is associated with the content of ellagic acid.
Sugar-lowering properties of Jambula Jambula seeds are traditionally used for diabetes. It is reported that they contain alkaloid "jambosine" and glycoside "jambolin", which stop the conversion of starch into sugar. 2 The results of the in vivo study show that taking Jambula seed extract increases insulin production and has a positive effect on the state of the liver. Many plants have a sugar-lowering effect, they can be considered not as an alternative, but as an effective addition to synthetic sugar-lowering drugs. They have an alkalizing effect, and in a slightly alkaline environment, glucose turns into mannose or fructose, the breakdown of which occurs without insulin, which reduces the need for it. The effectiveness of such plants as Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum), Bitter gourd (Momordica charantia), Gymnema Sylvestre and some others has been experimentally confirmed. All these plants can be used to improve therapeutic results and can significantly reduce the need for hypoglycemic drugs. Anti-ulcer effect Diabetes often increases the risk of peptic ulcer. According to studies published in the "Indian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology", the components of Jambula seeds have a protective effect on the mucous membrane of the stomach and can protect against peptic ulcer disease by normalizing gastric secretion. Studies have shown that taking Jambula seed extract normalizes the secretion of hydrochloric acid and pepsin in gastric juice, while simultaneously stimulating the production of mucins that create a protective layer on the walls of the stomach. Mucins (from the word mucus - slime) are proteins, the main components of the mucous substance that covers many parts of the body, including the stomach. They envelop and prevent the effects of hydrochloric acid, pepsin and irritating substances that enter the mucous membrane from food.
Hepatoprotective properties of Jambula In vivo studies have shown that the active substances contained in Jambula seeds are able to stimulate the regeneration of liver cells, which makes them a potentially effective remedy against various damaged livers. This effect depends on the dose, that is, higher doses of Jambula seed extracts give a more effective result, note the authors of the study.
