Averrhoa carambola L. fruit polyphenols ameliorate hyperlipidemia, hepatic steatosis, and hyperglycemia by modulating lipid and glucose metabolism in mice with obesity.

This study investigated the effects of Averrhoa carambola L. fruit polyphenols (ACFP) on obesity-related complications in mice. ACFP showed protective effects against hyperlipidemia, hepatic steatosis, and hyperglycemia. The mechanisms of action underlying these effects were also examined.
