Evaluating the combined antioxidant effects of Juglans regia (walnut) and Aronia melanocarpa (chokeberry)
South Korean researchers evaluated the combined antioxidant effects of a Juglans regia (walnut) and Aronia melanocarpa (chokeberry) in a d-galactose-induced aging model. They reported their findings in an article published in Nutrition Research. Many studies link cellular damage to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and aging. D-galactose, a reducing sugar, is said to cause aging-related changes and […]

Adequate glutathione intake found to boost liver health
A recent study has found that supplementation with glutathione could help reverse liver damage associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). NAFLD is characterized by the accumulation of excess fat in the liver, which, if left untreated, can progress to a more aggressive form of liver disease called nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). NASH is accompanied by inflammation that eventually […]

These phytochemicals can improve the biochemical composition and drought tolerance of rice
Antioxidants are important to human health because they help protect the body from free radicals. These harmful molecules are highly reactive and unstable because of the presence or absence of an unpaired electron on their surface. Oxygen-containing free radicals can attack macromolecules inside the body — including cell components like proteins and DNA — causing cellular […]

Enhancing the drought-tolerance of rice with natural plant compounds
In this study, researchers at Hiroshima University examined the effectiveness of vanillic acid (VA) and p-hydroxybenzoic acid (PHBA) at increasing the drought-tolerance of rice cultivars, as well as their levels of beneficial compounds. Their findings were published in the Archives of Agronomy and Soil Science. For their experiment, the researchers used two rice cultivars, one drought-tolerant (Q8) and […]
