ANTIOXIDANT PHYTOCHEMICALS AND SOME RESEARCH ON PLANTS- A REVIEW
Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and Medical Research - Year 2019, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Free radicals are produced in the body by natural biological processes or introduced from outside like stress, insomnia, some pollution of air, smoking, taking fast food that can damage cells, proteins, and DNA by altering their chemical structure. The consequent effect of free radicals is premature aging, degenerative diseases, diabetes, and cancer etc. Antioxidant is such molecules which prevent free radicals intermediates and inhibits other oxidation. Plants are one of the main natural sources to prevent free radicals and it is scientifically proved. Plants contain antioxidant phytochemicals like Phenolic acid, Flavonoids, Carotenoids, Tannic acid, Ascorbic acid, Vitamin A, E etc. Some plants found that rich of antioxidant like Morigna oleifera, Carrot, Guava, Beet root, Amla, Berry, Black tea. In this review article some evidence based information of the antioxidant phytochemical and effect of antioxidant properties of plants is described.
