Percival and Brooke Findley2 Florida ranked ninth in the nation for total cash receipts from fruit, with nearly 28% of this from field crops and other crops not including vegetables. Additionally, Florida’s top export is fruit; in 2003, Florida ranked second in the nation in fruit exports (3). Since the production of tropical fruits is an important part of the economy of the state, highlighting the nutritional benefits of these fruits enhances their marketability and appeal. However, the lack of comprehensive information about the nutritional properties of these foods presents a challenge. The purpose of this publication is to evaluate the current information available on the nutrient composition of Figure 1. Tropical Fruit Day (2005). tropical fruits. The nutrient information (amounts of fiber, Credits: UF/IFAS Vitamin A, Vitamin C, folate, potassium, calcium and iron) for the tropical fruits examined was compiled from the Introduction USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference Fruits are abundant in nutrients, such as fiber, potas- (4, 5) (see Table 1). These values were then compared to the sium, folate, and Vitamin C. Moreover, they also contain daily reference values for food labeling (6) and evaluated carotenoids and polyphenols, which act as antioxidants in relation to the percent provided per serving. According within the body.

  • Comparison of Purple Passion Juice (Passiflora Edulis Var. Edulis) and Simvastatin on Lipid-Lowering Effect of Hyperlipidemic Rats Model
    Comparison of Purple Passion Juice (Passiflora edulis var. edulis) and Simvastatin on Lipid-lowering Effect of Hyperlipidemic Rats Model Alfi Muntafiah1a, Tisna Sendy Pratama1b, Anisa Rachmawati1c, Dewi Wahyu Wulandari1d and Qodri Santosa2e 1 Department of Biochemistry, Faculty of Medicine, Jenderal Soedirman University, Purwokerto, Indonesia 2 Department of Child Health, Faculty of Medicine, Jenderal Soedirman University, Purwokerto, Indonesia Keywords: Purple passion juice, lipid profile, hyperlipidemia, Simvastatin, propylthiouracil, total cholesterol Abstract: Hyperlipidemia is a lipoprotein metabolic disorder characterized by high cholesterol and triglycerides in blood circulation. Non-pharmacological management efforts by consuming healthy foods are often the first choice. In the previous research, we found the antihypercholesterolemia potential of purple passion juice 4.2 mL/200gBB/day in experimental animals. This study aims to compare purple passion juice's effectiveness to Simvastatin in improving the lipid profile of the hyperlipidemic rats model. This true experimental study used 32 male Wistar rats, divided into 4 groups: K1 (normal control), K2 (hyperlipidemia control), K3 (purple passion juice 4.2 mL/200gBB/day), K4 (simvastatin 0.18 mg/200gBB/day). We used pork oil six mL/200gBB/day and Propylthiouracil (PTU) 12.5 mg/day, divided into two doses, for 14 days, by gavage, to induced hyperlipidemia. Blood sampling through retro-orbital veins was carried out at the end of induction (pre-test) and the end of the study (post-test) to measure the lipid profile. T-paired test on total cholesterol and triglyceride levels of the pre-post test showed a significant decrease in total cholesterol levels in K4 (p=0.00) and a significant decrease in triglyceride levels K3 (p=0.03), while in K1, there was a significant increase in both parameters.

They are 3-8 inches long, and a deep glossy green. Some varieties have leaves tinged with red or purple The flowers are single and fragrant, 2-3 inches wide and borne at a node on the new growth. In most countries passion fruit production is based on caltivars of the golden passion fruit (p.edulis f. flavicarpa). The major exceptions are South Africa, Kenya and New New Zealand where production is dependent on lines of the purple passion fruit (P.edulis) and in Australia where hybrids between the two forms are exploited. The purple passion fruit (passiflora edulis), is adapted to the coolest subtropics or to high altitudes in the tropics, while the golden passion fruit (p.edulis f. flavicarpa) is more suited to tropical lowland conditions.
