Journal ArticleDOI
Total antioxidant capacity of spices, dried fruits, nuts, pulses, cereals and sweets consumed in Italy assessed by three different in vitro assays.
Nicoletta Pellegrini,Mauro Serafini,Sara Salvatore,Daniele Del Rio,Marta Bianchi,Furio Brighenti +5 more
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
Understanding the association between dietary antioxidants, redox status and disease: is the Total Antioxidant Capacity the right tool?
Mauro Serafini,Daniele Del Rio +1 more
TL;DR: The pros and cons of the more common assays for measuring plasma TAC, the latest findings on dietary modulation of plasma redox status and the feasibility of the 'TAC concept' as an innovative tool for investigating the association between diet and oxidative stress is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Total antioxidant potential of fruit and vegetables and risk of gastric cancer
TL;DR: The results suggest that dietary intake of antioxidants measured as total antioxidant potential is inversely associated with risk of both cardia and distal gastric cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dark Chocolate Improves Coronary Vasomotion and Reduces Platelet Reactivity
Andreas J. Flammer,Frank Hermann,Isabella Sudano,Lukas E. Spieker,Matthias Hermann,Karen A. Cooper,Mauro Serafini,Thomas F. Lüscher,Frank Ruschitzka,Georg Noll,Roberto Corti +10 more
TL;DR: Dark chocolate induces coronary vasodilation, improves coronary vascular function, and decreases platelet adhesion 2 hours after consumption, paralleled by a significant reduction of serum oxidative stress and were positively correlated with changes in serum epicatechin concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Absorption, metabolism and excretion of Choladi green tea flavan-3-ols by humans
TL;DR: It is evident that flavan-3-ol metabolites are rapidly turned over in the circulatory system and as a consequence C(max) values are not an accurate quantitative indicator of the extent to which absorption occurs.
