The exploration of banana peels has garnered significant interest among researchers owing to their rich composition of bioactive chemicals. This review article specifically delves into the anti-ulcer activities exhibited by banana peels, underscoring their potential as natural antioxidants and as a viable option for pharmaceutical purposes in the treatment of various diseases. Bananas, classified under the genus Musa (Musaceae), are cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions and are widely recognized as an edible fruit.Peptic ulcer disease (PUD), encompassing both gastric and duodenal ulcers, stands out as one of the most prevalent gastrointestinal disorders. The existing challenges in treating peptic ulcers are attributed to the limited efficacy and severe side effects associated with currently available drugs. Recognizing this, the review emphasizes the effectiveness of Musa sapientum peel, a component of herbal medicine, in the treatment of peptic ulcers.Flavonoids, identified as the most abundant polyphenols in plants, emerge as key contributors to the observed gastroprotective effects against peptic ulcers, both in vivo and in vitro. These compounds demonstrate cytoprotective and rehabilitative effects by enhancing defense factors, such as mucus and prostaglandins, while concurrently safeguarding against potentially harmful factors through their antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial activities.In the context of the prevailing challenges associated with conventional drugs, the exploration of indigenous alternatives like Musa sapientum, characterized by fewer side effects, becomes the focal point of this review. The ultimate goal is to present a more effective and safer approach for the management of peptic ulcer disease. The study is poised to contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the chemical composition of banana (Musa sapientum) peel, shedding light on its potential applications in the realm of healthcare and herbal medicine.
