A collection of current knowledge of phytochemicals and
health
Interest in phenolic phytochemicals has increased as scientific
studies indicate these compounds exhibit potential health benefits.
With contributions from world leaders in this research area,
Plant Phenolics and Human Health: Biochemistry, Nutrition, and
Pharmacology offers an essential survey of the current
knowledge on the capacity of specific micronutrients present in
ordinary diets to fight disease.
The coverage in this resource:
* Explains the presence and biochemical properties of phenolics
present in fruits and vegetables, as well as in foods derived from
their plant sources
* Provides biochemical explanations on how certain plant phenolics
fight cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, and
other widespread pathologies
* Focuses on certain phenolics, e.g., flavonoids, stilbenes, and
curcuminoids, and provides insights on the biochemical bases used
to define their significance in the diet as well as their
recommended consumption requirements and toxicity
Appropriate for graduate and upper-level undergraduate courses
in human and animal nutrition, basic nutritional biology,
physiology, pharmacology, and other health-related disciplines,
Plant Phenolics and Human Health: Biochemistry, Nutrition, and
Pharmacology serves as both an invaluable supplementary
classroom text and a self-teaching guide for professionals
interested in defining the association between diet and health from
classical, alternative, and complementary biomedical
perspectives.
