This book provides a mechanistic approach to explaining the health benefits associated with food-derived nutrients. Divided into two parts, the first part discusses the influence of the major food nutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids) on the metabolic processes that are involved in human chronic diseases. For example, the potential of carbohydrates to reduce cholesterol absorption and enhance colonization of the lower intestinal tract by beneficial organisms, the ability of proteins to reduce blood pressure and oxidative stress, enhance mineral bioavailability, and down-regulate the carcinogenesis process, and the fact that lipids serve as critical substrates for the production of cellular hormones that suppress various inflammatory pathways, are all addressed. Polyphenols, potent antioxidants and anti-atherogenic compounds that scavenge free radicals and prevent lipid peroxidation, are also covered. The second part discusses in detail specific functional foods, such as fish, soybean, milk, tea, fru - ローカル注記:
