Discussion

Experimental analysis reveals biochemical changes in Wistar rats after Dacryodes edulis var. edulis pulp supplementation.

Consumption of 15% and 30% Dacryodes edulis var. edulis pulp improved biochemical parameters in Wistar rats, suggesting health benefits.
Significantly increased levels of ALT, AST, total protein, and cholesterol were observed in rats consuming treated pulp.
Control rats showed lower biochemical markers and body weight changes compared to those on supplemented diets.
The study indicates potential anti-anaemic and hepato-protective effects from Dacryodes edulis var. edulis supplementation.

Inyang et al. (2025) studied this question.
