Abstract
: Oxidative stress is a major cellular and metabolic burden that can really alter cell life and become the base for disease onset and development. Many widespread pathologies can develop from an unresolved oxidative stress situation; thus, addressing this state is paramount for human health. Our antioxidant enzymes sometimes are not just enough. Fortifying our defense and the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory system can make a difference in our health: if this is attainable with our dietary habits, it could be a dream come true. Polyphenols are a fantastic tool indeed in the fight against oxidative stress: they are easy to obtain, with little cost, no side effects, and have a multitude of metabolic actions. This perspective review would shed light on polyphenol's metabolic and molecular action regarding oxidative stress to help preserve our health.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
