Fruit is known to containvarious beneficial nutrients. Antioxidant compounds that contained in fruit have important function againstcardiovascular diseases. Red fruit contains tocopherol and carotenoid compounds that actively act asantioxidant. Polyphenols that found in mahkota dewa and matoa also have important rules in free radicalsscavenging. These compounds have been demonstrated to suppress cancer cells in vitro.
