“Moreover, catechin enhanced the antioxidant capacity of G-BSA, which could attenuate postprandial oxidative stress in the gastrointestinal tract caused by the release of AGEs.”
“Some studies have demonstrated that catechins could significantly inhibit the excessive oxidative stress through direct or indirect antioxidant effects and promote the activation of the antioxidative substances such as glutathione peroxidases (GPO) and glutathione (GSH), reducing the oxidative damages to the colon.”
“The dose of antioxidants is a factor of fundamental importance, particularly for catechins : low doses increase absorption of lipids, whereas high doses exert the opposite effect.”
