- Review Question
- Does the consumption of star fruit or fruit based products have a positive effect on health when assessed in animals? Context and rationale Chronic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension have been treated in ancient times with folkloric or traditional food. Averrhoa carambola, best known as star fruit due to its particular shape of five point star, is a tropical fruit used as an alternative medicine to control hypertension in some countries. For this reason there have been studies looking at its composition and bioactive potential, in addition to some clinical trials to understand the physiological mechanism. There have been reports on toxicity in individuals with renal disease after the consumption of star fruit. For this reason a review on the effects of star fruit consumption to identify the primary outcomes on animal models will provide mechanistic reasons for the possible health effects. A systematic review on this topic has not been conducted and it would provide a compilation of the literature findings to lead into further clinical research. This PROPRERO protocol will be under the same review for human studies (protocol ID = CRD42021272234).
