Used in pharmaceutical research for its anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. Shows potential in developing treatments for neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's due to its ability to modulate oxidative stress and reduce neuronal damage. Also investigated for antioxidant applications in cosmetic formulations to protect skin from environmental stressors. Its complex polyphenolic structure contributes to free radical scavenging activity, making it a candidate for functional ingredient development in health supplements.
