Vitamins C, and E, carotenoids, and phenolic compounds from plants are low-molecular substances which express strong antioxidant and antiradical activity. Free radical processes are very complicated way, and it is impossible to draw conclusions from in vitro analysis of any compound regarding the role it would play under in vivo conditions. In this study, the in vivo and in vitro antioxidant and antiradical activities of some antioxidants contained in vegetable foods as well as the possibility of their prooxidant activity are described.

In recent years, there has been a surge in the production of kombucha-a functional beverage obtained via microbial fermentation of tea. However, fresh, unpasteurized kombucha is sensitive to quality deterioration as a result of, among other factors, oxidation. The addition of hops seems to be promising, due to their antioxidative properties, which may improve the stability of kombucha.

Beneficial activities of phenolic compounds in the gastrointestinal tract, such as antiradical activity, are affected by the food matrix. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of one constituent of the food matrix (dietary fiber β-glucan) on the release and antiradical activity of phenolic compounds from apples in gastrointestinal digestion. Simulated digestion in vitro was conducted on whole apples without or with added β-glucan.

Fruits are essential components of the human diet, valued for their diverse bioactive compounds with potential health-promoting properties. This study focuses on three cold-hardy species, namely , , and , examining their polyphenolic content, antioxidant/antiradical activities, scavenging capacity and effects on intestinal cell viability (Caco-2 and HT29-MTX). A comprehensive profile of their phenolic compounds was identified, in descending order of total polyphenol content: > > .
