anti-diarrheal activities. The presence of these large amounts of phenolic compounds in the
Byrosonima sericea such as flavonoids may possess antioxidant power as well, thus allowing benefits to the immune system as well; thus, the bioactivity of the phenolic compounds can be attributed to their ability to bond with certain metals, inhibit the which may be attributable for the antioxidant capacity. Additionally, the Byrosonima sericea can be used to treat the effects of fatty liver damage in rats. In a study done, the rats who had been treated with the extract from the plant showed less hepatic damage in their liver cells as in comparison with the negative control group rats. The study concluded that the rats treated with the floral oil from the Byrosonima sericea had additional hepatoprotective action from the enzyme secretion. (Wong, 2019)
