This informative volume presents a valuable overview of the
therapeutic aspects as well as applications of antioxidants. It
discusses the basic mechanisms of therapy-based oxidative damage
and categorization of nutritional antioxidants and covers the
sources of antioxidants as well as their extraction and
quantification. The volume considers the controversies of the
usefulness or disadvantages of antioxidant supplementation in
relation to adaptation and performance and also looks at the
effectiveness of bioactives and antioxidant-based therapies for
specific health issues, such as anemia, infectious diseases,
urinary tract infections, Parkinson's diseases, and diabetes. The
book discusses the sensing of oxidative stress and the
effectiveness of antioxidant treatment, followed by an introduction
to several biomarkers to estimate the bioefficacy of
dietary/supplemental antioxidants in various forms. Also considered
are free radicals that can cause "oxidative stress," a process that
can trigger cell damage, and how antioxidant molecules have been
shown to counteract oxidative stress in laboratory experiments.
