Abstract:
Background: Stress is a major concern for human being because it affects the person’s
overall wellbeing. Rather than using chemical medications to modulate the stress responses,
researchers are now using nutraceuticals. Objective: To investigate the impact of Artocarpus
heterophyllus (jackfruit seed) extraction on stress modulation in experimental mice in order
to ascertain potential therapeutic benefits. Materials and Method: Artocarpus heterophyllus
jackfruit seed was used in a 7days study to see how stress affected swiss albino mice. By
supplementing the feed with cortisol, stress was created. The following parameters were
measured: serum cortisol, blood glucose level, weight variation and spleen size.There were
four treatments group (control, stress, an stress- standard drug group, and stress- jackfruit
seed group). Results: When comparing the stress and stress jackfruit seed treatments,
jackfruit seed had no discernible impact on any of the parameters. Conclusion: However, the
outcome demonstrated the important imperative impact of str
