The Function of Red Palm Oil in Immune Response, Inflammation, and Obesity

Red palm oil (RPO), due to its abundant antioxidant properties, is a natural product of significant nutritional value capable of alleviating cardiac and reproductive diseases. Nonetheless, there are concerns and conflicting reports regarding the impact of RPO on obesity, male infertility, and inflammation. Consequently, additional empirical research in these domains is required. This review article aims to build a robust framework for evaluating the effects of the oil on immunological and inflammatory responses in obesity. A comprehensive search was conducted utilizing electronic databases, including Scopus, ScienceDirect, PubMed, NCBI, Web of Science, SpringerLink, and Google Scholar. The findings of this study provide a reference for endocrinologists, andrologists, immunologists, nutritionists, and researchers in obesity.
