dc.description.abstractBackground: Soursop (Annona muricata) is a tropical fruit that has recently been under scrutiny for its supposedly appreciable health benefits. The plant is rich in phytochemicals and the medicinal value of the fruit has been under study in treating cancer, diabetes, oxidative stress, hypertension, haemorrhagic disease, and reduction of bad cholesterol. Purpose: The review serves to discuss the potential use of the Annona muricata in nutraceutical and pharmaceutical development. The discussion below is based on the use of soursop pulp, seeds, and leaf extracts as functional ingredients in food products and their implications for pharmaceutical industries. Methods: Recent literatures have been surveyed from PUBMED, GOOGLE SCHOLAR, etc. like search engines, for summarising detailed ongoing research on Annona muricata, which could be used in complementary and alternative cancer therapy. Conclusion: The high nutritional value and pharmacological potential of Annona muricata turn it into a very good candidate for different health-related applications. There exist promising benefits of phytochemicals present in soursop for the treatment and prevention of a number of health conditions, underscoring its importance in functional foods and medicines development.
