Effect of California mission fig consumption on levels of c-reactive protein and antioxidant levels
<p>Polyphenols exert anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. We investigated the effect of consumption of polyphenol-rich figs on high sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP) and antioxidant levels in hyperlipidemic subjects. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of fig consumption on …

The role of local and peripheral antioxidants in the pathogenesis of chronic Periodontitis in smokers
… exaggerated ROS production is the depletion of antioxidant defences against ROS within the periodontal pockets. Cigarette smoke is also reported to increase the oxidative burden and deplete antioxidant defences, but no data are available on gingival crevicular (GCF) antioxidant levels in smokers …
