Co to są substancje antyoksydacyjne?

Substancje antyoksydacyjne, również znane jako przeciwutleniacze, to znaczna liczba związków występujących w pokarmach. Mogą to być witaminy, składniki mineralne oraz substancje bioaktywne. Ich głównym źródłem są produkty pochodzenia roślinnego, w tym owoce i warzywa. Prawie każda roślina zawiera te substancje. Ich główną funkcją jest neutralizowanie wolnych rodników w ludzkim organizmie. Wolne rodniki, które również nazywane są utleniaczami, są naturalnie wytwarzane przez organizm w niewielkich ilościach, np. w wyniku oddychania komórkowego. Pewna ilość nie stanowi zagrożenia, jednak nadmiar może mieć negatywny wpływ na zdrowie ludzkie. Ten stan nazywany jest stresem oksydacyjnym i jest spowodowany nieprawidłowym stosunkiem ilości utleniaczy do ilości przeciwutleniaczy. Może to zwiększać ryzyko rozwoju wielu nowotworów, chorób metabolicznych, neurodegeneracyjnych oraz zaburzeń układu krążenia. Aby przeciwdziałać stresowi oksydacyjnemu, zaleca się spożywanie zdrowej i zrównoważonej diety, która umożliwi odpowiednie dostarczenie substancji antyoksydacyjnych. Do substancji antyoksydacyjnych zalicza się witaminę C, A oraz E. Z kolei składniki mineralne o działaniu antyoksydacyjnym to selen, cynk, miedź, kobalt oraz mangan. Inne substancje antyoksydacyjne to m.in. karotenoidy oraz flawonoidy.
