Article Synopsis
- PDEVs from organic agriculture contain high levels of antioxidants and have shown increased antioxidant power compared to single-plant PDEVs due to synergistic effects.
- A mixture of PDEVs from five fruits was found to contain beneficial compounds and effectively restored redox balance and mitochondrial health in treated human skin cells.
- The findings suggest that PDEVs play a vital role in preventing and treating skin injuries by enhancing antioxidant actions and facilitating repair processes.
Type 2 diabetes (T2D), characterized by insulin resistance and β-cell dysfunction, requires continuous advancements in management strategies, particularly in controlling postprandial hyperglycemia to prevent complications. Current antidiabetics, which have α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities, have side effects, prompting the search for better alternatives. In addition, diabetes patients are particularly vulnerable to yeast infections because an unusual sugar concentration promotes the growth of spp.

- - This study focuses on extracting Schott extracts using supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) with CO₂ at 300 bar and 40°C from mature fruits, resulting in a total fatty acid (FA) content of 795.8 mg/g.
- - The fatty acid profile identified linoleic acid as the most abundant (386 mg/g), followed by oleic, linolenic, palmitic, and stearic acids.
- - Comparative tests showed that SFE extracts and others had no significant antimicrobial activity, while only the methanolic extract demonstrated a 11-mm inhibition against specific bacteria.
Water is a major requirement for our bodies, and alkaline water has induced an antioxidant response in a model of natural aging. A series of recent reports have shown that aging is related to reduced water intake. Hydrogen-rich water has been suggested to exert a general antioxidant effect in relation to both improving lifestyle and preventing a series of diseases.
