Abstract: In this review, three components of cashew apple juice (CAJ) including vitamin C, branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), and anacardic acids are considered to play major roles on metabolism, oxidative stress, immune function, and cardiac autonomic function in exercise. Supplementation with CAJ could promote effects of exercise training on increased fat utilization, increased immune cell counts, increased vagal activity, and decreased oxidative stress during high-intensity exercise in healthy persons. This may lead to increase endurance time in exercise and may help athletes and sedentary persons to early recover and reduce susceptibility to involve in illness after the competition or high-intensity exercise session.
