Development of gummy bear supplements and in vitro exploration of antioxidant and antiproliferative potential of Nuciferine.

Background: Nuciferine's extensive therapeutic potential, including its robust antioxidant properties, is explored in response to the growing consumer preference for value-added organic foods.

Objective: This study focuses on the formulation of gummy bear supplements fortified with nuciferine from Nelumbonucifera. The research highlights nuciferine's ability to combat oxidative stress induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS) and examines its application in maintaining basal ROS levels during oxidative stress conditions in skin melanoma cells.
