NCIt definition : A dietary supplement composed of dried Synsepalum dulcificum, or dried miracle berry,
with potential taste modifying and antioxidant activities. Dried Synsepalum dulcificum
supplement contains the glycoprotein miraculin and polyphenols. Upon oral supplement,
miraculin acts as an agonist at the human sweet taste receptor hT1R2-hT1R3 at acidic
pH, thereby converting sour stimuli to sweetness and resulting in taste-modifying
activity. The polyphenols may reduce oxidative stress and may help to slow or prevent
cell damage caused by oxidation.;
