The studies reported here along with those from other
laboratories may help to identify the active ingredients
in beverages, vegetables, grains, and fruit (once their
absorption characteristics are identified) that may protect
against free radical damage, LDL oxidation, implicated
in the pathogenesis of coronary heart disease, platelet
aggregation, and endothelium-dependent vasodilatation
of the arteries, as well as against DNA damage and cancer.
This might be useful information from the point of
view of identifying appropriate foods that are rich in
these protective components for the development of safe
food products and additives with appropriate antioxidant
properties.
