Amelioration of Ulcerative Colitis in BALB/c Mice by Probiotic-Fermented Aegle marmelos Juice
Researchers tested a fermented bael fruit juice with probiotics as a treatment for ulcerative colitis in mice. The mice treated with this juice showed significant improvement in weight recovery, reduced inflammation markers, and increased antioxidant protection compared to untreated diseased mice. The fermentation process increased the beneficial compounds in the juice. These results suggest that probiotic-fermented bael fruit juice could be a natural and effective treatment option for people with ulcerative colitis.
