Calabash Tree

Crescentia cujete

Crescentia cujete，通常被称为葫芦树或gour，是一种原产于中美洲和南美洲热带地区的植物。它在医学中的传统用途记录不多，虽然曾用于各种文化目的，例如用其果实制作容器。 科学证据表明发酵后的Crescentia cujete可能具有一定的免疫调节作用，尤其是通过提高CD4+和CD4+/CD8+比例。此外，研究显示该果汁提取物可以影响异嗜细胞并改变牧牛金鱼中的C‑反应蛋白水平，并在针对2型糖尿病相关关键酶方面表现出潜力，但需要更多研究来证实这些发现。 关于Crescentia cujete的安全性数据看似良好，未记录主要问题。也没有报告与其使用相关的药物相互作用。
