13- Improve Muscle Function
Recent studies have found that tamarind extract can effectively improve muscle function. In this research, tamarind extract was able to increase the strength of muscles by up to 20%. The researchers also discovered that taking just one gram of the extract per day could potentially reduce fatigue during exercise significantly.
This study is particularly exciting because it suggests that tamarind could be beneficial for those who are looking to improve their fitness levels or recover from an injury more quickly. In addition, other studies have found that it contains compounds with anti-inflammatory properties which may aid in reducing post-exercise soreness.
