The study investigates, the potential utilisation of the Garcinia indica linn rind powder as a valuable and healthy ingredient for food industry. Techno-functional properties revealed the functional attributes which is crucial for product development. Characterisation of the powder and extract revealed the physical, chemical, and structural properties through FTIR, HPLC, and SEM. Therefore, moisture content (5.45%), ash content (2.80%), fibre content (7.56%), and fat content (9.54%) were reported in G. indica linn rind. Phytochemical analysis indicated significant levels of phenolic and flavonoid compounds, suggesting antioxidant potential, supported by inhibition in the DPPH assay with IC50 value of 485.1 mu g/mL. In-vitro assays revealed inhibitory effects on alpha-amylase with IC50 value of 58.43 mu g/mL and glucose with an IC50 value of 0.39 mu g/mL, indicating potential benefits in blood glucose management and weight control. Overall, G. indica rind powder shows promise as a natural ingredient with diverse applications in functional foods and nutraceuticals, offering potential health benefits through innovative product formulations.
