Total Antioxidant Capacity of Plant Foods, Beverages and Oils Consumed in Italy Assessed by Three Different In Vitro Assays
Nicoletta Pellegrini,Mauro Serafini,Barbara Colombi,Daniele Del Rio,Sara Salvatore,Marta Bianchi,Furio Brighenti +6 more
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.
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
Almonds Decrease Postprandial Glycemia, Insulinemia, and Oxidative Damage in Healthy Individuals
David J.A. Jenkins,Cyril W.C. Kendall,Cyril W.C. Kendall,Andrea R. Josse,Andrea R. Josse,Sara Salvatore,Furio Brighenti,Livia S. A. Augustin,Livia S. A. Augustin,Peter R. Ellis,Edward Vidgen,A. Venket Rao +11 more
TL;DR: Almonds are likely to lower the risk of oxidative damage to proteins by decreasing the glycemic excursion and by providing antioxidants, which may relate to mechanisms by which nuts are associated with a decreased risk of CHD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Total antioxidant capacity of the diet is inversely and independently related to plasma concentration of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein in adult Italian subjects
Furio Brighenti,Silvia Valtueña,Nicoletta Pellegrini,Diego Ardigò,Daniele Del Rio,Sara Salvatore,PierMarco Piatti,Mauro Serafini,Ivana Zavaroni +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that dietary TAC is inversely and independently correlated with plasma concentrations of hs-CRP and this could be one of the mechanisms explaining the protective effects against CVD of antioxidant-rich foods such as fruits, whole cereals and red wine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioavailability and catabolism of green tea flavan-3-ols in humans
Daniele Del Rio,Luca Calani,Chiara Cordero,Sara Salvatore,Nicoletta Pellegrini,Furio Brighenti +5 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that green tea catechins are more bioavailable than previously observed when colonic ring fission metabolites are taken into consideration, somehow justifying the numerous beneficial actions described as linked to green tea intake.
