Since ancient times, mulberry leaf has a prominent intestinal regulatory effect, and the close relationship between intestinal diseases and other diseases has attracted more and more attention. This article reviewed the relevant articles on the mulberry leaf in recent years and summarized the research progress of mulberry leaf‘s biological activities and their effects on human intestinal regulation and the corresponding mechanisms. Multiple components in the mulberry leaf can individually or synergistically affect the human intestine, directly and indirectly promote the digestion, absorption, and transport function of the small intestine, adjust the balance of the flora, enhance the barrier function of the intestinal mucosa, improve the immunity of the part, and facilitate the intestine recovery from illness.
