Antioxidants Do Help Arteries Stay Healthy “Long-term supplementation with dietary antioxidants has beneficial effects on sugar and fat metabolism, blood pressure and arterial flexibility in patients with multiple cardiovascular risk factors. Researchers writing in BioMed Central's open access journal Nutrition and Metabolism report these positive results in a randomized controlled trial of combined vitamin C, vitamin E, coenzyme Q10 and selenium capsules.”

Drink This to Help Undo a Heavy Meal “What makes orange juice so good at clamping down on the inflammation and oxidation that big, fatty meals cause? The heroes are likely two important flavonoids found in oranges -- naringenin and hesperidin. These powerful antioxidants help tamp down body processes that can damage blood vessels and lay the groundwork for big health problems, like atherosclerosis and heart disease.”

[Oxidative stress] (Nippon Rinsho. 2010) “Increased oxidative stress has been paid attention to as an important causative factor for diabetic cardiovascular complications. Hyperglycemic state are supposed to induce the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) through various mechanisms including increased non-enzymatic glycation end products (AGEs) formation, increased polyol pathway flux, increased O2-production from mitochondrial and protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent NAD (P) H oxidase activation in cardiovasucular tissues. Oxidative modification of lipoprotein is critical for atheromatous lesion formation. O2- reacts with nitric oxide (NO), resulting in loss of NO's anti-atherogenic properties.”
