Carotenoids in Health and Disease de Norman I. Krinsky

Carotenoids in Health and Disease

Editat de Norman I. Krinsky, Susan T. Mayne, Helmut Sies
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 sep 2019
The first source to collect the latest evidence linking carotenoids to human health and disease, this stimulating reference studies the role of carotenoids in the prevention of chronic disease and reviews breakthrough studies from more than 40 field authorities on the latest research. The book reveals the most recent findings regarding the use of carotenoids in the prevention of cancers and sunburn, as well as eye, heart, vascular, and photosensitivity diseases, and evaluates the potential toxic effects of high-dose carotenoids in both smokers and drinkers. It also focuses on pioneering observations from observational epidemiological and clinical studies, as well as intervention trials on carotenoids.
