Abstract: The jackfruit tree (Artocarpus heterophyllus), widely grown in tropical regions, has long been valued for its large edible fruits. However, beyond its use as a food source, the tree offers significant medicinal value, especially through its leaves, bark, and latex. Traditional systems of medicine have used jackfruit leaves in treating common ailments like fever, wounds, and digestive disorders. Modern studies have begun to support these age-old practices, identifying powerful compounds in the leaves that offer antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties. This paper explores the full potential of jackfruit leaves and the tree’s medicinal role in both traditional and modern healthcare contexts. The study promotes the use of jackfruit tree parts in daily wellness and calls for more scientific exploration to integrate these natural remedies into current medical systems.
