1993
Parke, Dennis V. | Ioannides, Costas | Walker, R.
Explains the biological and molecular mechanisms involved in defense against environmental toxic chemicals by the nutrients in our food. Concentrates on the detoxicating activity of the liver cytochrome P450 microsomal mixed-function oxidase system, together with the contribution of glutathione and the sulphur amino acids in detoxicating conjugations; and on the need to neutralize the harming effects of oxygen free radicals. Discusses chemical toxicity and nutritional needs; dietary protection against reactive oxygen species; chemicals, diet and cancer; clinical aspects; and international problems and regulatory aspects.
