Total Antioxidant Capacity of Plant Foods, Beverages and Oils Consumed in Italy Assessed by Three Different In Vitro Assays

TL;DR: A variety of foods commonly consumed in Italy, including 34 vegetables, 30 fruits, 34 beverages and 6 vegetable oils, were analyzed using three different assays, i.e., Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC), total radical-trapping antioxidant parameter (TRAP) and ferric reducing-antioxidant power (FRAP).
Journal ArticleDOI

Total antioxidant capacity of spices, dried fruits, nuts, pulses, cereals and sweets consumed in Italy assessed by three different in vitro assays.

TL;DR: Among spices, saffron displayed the highest antioxidant capacity, whereas among dried fruits, prune exhibited the highest value, and the TAC values of all the chocolates analyzed were far higher than the other sweet extracts measured.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of higher- versus lower-protein diets on health outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis

TL;DR: Higher-protein diets probably improve adiposity, blood pressure and triglyceride levels, but these effects are small and need to be weighed against the potential for harms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Food selection based on total antioxidant capacity can modify antioxidant intake, systemic inflammation, and liver function without altering markers of oxidative stress

TL;DR: Selecting foods according to their TAC markedly affects antioxidant intake and modulates hepatic contribution to systemic inflammation without affecting traditional markers of antioxidant status.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of the 2,2‘-Azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) Radical Cation Assay to a Flow Injection System for the Evaluation of Antioxidant Activity of Some Pure Compounds and Beverages

TL;DR: The proposed FI technique seems suitable for the direct, rapid and reliable monitoring of total antioxidant activity of pure compounds and beverages and, due to the ability to operate in continuous, it allows the analysis of about 30 samples h(-)(1) making the assay particularly suitable for large screening of total antioxidants activity in food samples.
