Glucosinolates in Brassica Vegetables - the Influence of the Food Supply Chain on Intake, Bioavailability and Human Health
Ruud Verkerk,Monika Schreiner,Angelika Krumbein,Ewa Ciska,Birgit Holst,Ian Rowland,Remi De Schrijver,Magnor Hansen,Clarissa Gerhäuser,Richard Mithen,Matthijs Dekker +10 more
TL;DR: The effects of various factors in the supply chain of Brassica vegetables including breeding, cultivation, storage and processing on intake and bioavailability of GLSs are extensively discussed in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutrients and phytochemicals: from bioavailability to bioefficacy beyond antioxidants
TL;DR: Major mechanisms involved in chronic, age-related diseases include the oxidant/antioxidant balance, but the latest research indicates indirect effects of dietary bioactives in vivo and adaptive responses in addition to direct radical scavenging.
Journal ArticleDOI
A critical review of the bioavailability of glucosinolates and related compounds
Birgit Holst,Gary Williamson +1 more
TL;DR: In this review, the present state of knowledge on all factors that affect bioavailability of GLS-HPs are critically evaluated, including liberation from the plant material, absorption from the digestive system, distribution around the body, metabolism and excretion.
