Observational studies suggest that a high intake of heme ironmay increase the risk of colon cancer( 15 , 16 ). Clinical trials in humans have shown that heme iron from supplements or red meat may increase the f
These results suggest that the inhibitory effects of bioactive polyphenolic compounds on heme iron absorption cannot be offset by ascorbic acid.doi:10.1096/fasebj.24.1_supplement.208.7Qianyi MaNutritional SciencesPennsylvania State UniversityUniversity ParkPAEun-Young Kim...
For this reason, food rich in antioxidants or antioxidants administered as supplements are applied on a large scale in an attempt to alleviate ROS induced damage such as apoptosis, alteration in immune response modulation and innate immunity, and others [200]. Vitamin E is the blanket term that...
Calcium is the only known component in the diet that may affect absorption of both nonheme and heme iron. However, the evidence for a calcium effect on iron absorption mainly comes from studies that did not isolate the effect of calcium from that of other dietary components, because it was ...
