In this work, esteemed international contributors explore the history and use of functional foods around the world. It illustrates the importance of recent "ohmics" technology for understanding the molecular basis of nutrition and systems toxicology. Individual chapters explain the role of angiogenesis in various chronic diseases including tumors, cardiovascular disease, inflammatory arthritis, and obesity. The text studies specific foods and their functional bioactive compounds such as edible berry anthocyanins, dietary flavonoids, probiotics, and marine polysaccharides. It concludes by considering challenges faced during development and delivery of anti-angiogenic functional food products.
Drawing from an extensive list of esteemed international contributors, Anti-Angiogenic Functional and Medicinal Foods explores the history and scope of the use of conventional foods, nutraceuticals, and health products in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, India, Australia, and New Zealand. Recent advancements in proteomics, genomics, and toxicogenomics give us a far more detailed picture of the molecular basis of nutrition and systems toxicology. Explaining the role of angiogenesis in various chronic diseases, individual chapters consider endothelial cell responses, the mechanism of the angiogenic cascade, and the angiogenic function involved in tumors, cardiovascular disease, inflammatory arthritis, and obesity. A collection of chapters studies specific foods and their functional bioactive compounds such as the effects of edible berry anthocyanins, various Chinese medicinal foods, dietary flavonoids, probiotics, shark cartilage, EPA and DHA, and marine polysaccharides. The book concludes with a discussion of the challenges faced during the development and delivery of anti-angiogenic functional food products.
Presenting the current research and state of the science, Anti-Angiogenic Functional and Medicinal Foods provides researchers, scientists, clinical nutritionists, and oncologists with a valuable reference to this important and growing mode of
