Artocarpus altilis leaves, known as Breadfruit Leaves, are widely used in Pacific, Caribbean, and some Indonesian traditional herbal practices. They are typically prepared as a tea or decoction to support blood pressure balance, kidney function, blood sugar control, and general wellness. The leaves contain flavonoids, phenolic acids, saponins, tannins, and other antioxidant compounds that contribute to cardiovascular, metabolic, and cellular support.
Studies and traditional use indicate that breadfruit leaves help maintain healthy blood pressure, support kidney function, reduce inflammation, provide antioxidant effects, and show cytotoxic activity against some cancer cell lines. They are also used for gentle detox and digestive balance.
