(2005) J. Nutr. 135,

16 In industrialized societies, a significant part of the day is spent in the postprandial state Unsaturated fatty acids incorporated into LDL are suitable targets for oxidation, and oxidized LDL are an atherogenic factor. Lipid hydroperoxides already present in the diet are absorbed and contribute to the prooxidant load.

20 Red wine mitigates the postprandial increase of LDL susceptibility to oxidation. Natella et al (2001) Free Radic Biol Med. 30:

21 Postprandial oxidative stress is attenuated when dietary antioxidants are supplied together with a meal rich in oxidized or oxidizable lipids. Ingestion of dietary polyphenols, e.g. from wine, cocoa, or tea, improves endothelial dysfunction and lowers the susceptibility of LDL lipids to oxidation.

24 The issue of TAC Is there a use in non-compositional assays of antioxidant capacity?

25 A pioneering paper... Quantitative measurement of the total, peroxyl radical-trapping antioxidant capability of human blood plasma by controlled peroxidation. The important contribution made by plasma proteins. Keith Ingold Wayner, Burton, Ingold, Locke (1985) FEBS Lett 187:33-7

26 followed by a flurry of assay methods... TRAP, TEAC, ORAC, FRAP...: Total Radical-trapping Antioxidant Parameter (TRAP) Trolox Equivalent Antioxidant Capacity (TEAC) Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP)... Generic: TAC, Total Antioxidant Capacity

27 Transfer to the Public...

28 Note: TAC applied to in vivo: neither Total nor the real Antioxidant Capacity is measured what is measured by TAC is mainly ascorbate, urate and other minor components; in vivo antioxidant enzyme support is not assessed in isolated fluids out of steady-state

30 Upshot: TAC in vitro (e.g. in foods or extracts): OK TAC in vivo (e.g. in plasma): not OK Publication of such data is encouraged Publication of such data is discouraged See: Total antioxidant capacity: appraisal of a concept. Sies, H. (2007) J Nutr. 137:1493-5
