Artifact Description

The human health functionality of antioxidant vitamins and plant phytochemicals has been a topic of interest in recent years. Along with selenium and vitamins A, C, and E are many other phytochemicals which may protect the body from the free radical oxidation of DNA, proteins, lipoproteins, and other macromolecules. The protection provided from such nutrients against free radicals may result in a lower likelihood of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and other degenerative diseases (van’t Veer et al., 2000).
