Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the role of antioxidants in promoting human health has gained increasing scientific interest, particularly in the context of dietary strategies and chronic disease prevention. Oxidative stress—a key contributor to chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disorders, metabolic syndromes, and neurodegenerative conditions—can be effectively modulated through targeted nutritional and therapeutic interventions.
This Special Issue aims to provide insight into the latest advancements in antioxidant research, focusing on their dietary sources, bioavailability, mechanisms of action, and clinical applications. We invite researchers to submit original research articles and reviews addressing the following topics:
- Novel antioxidant compounds and their health benefits;
- Dietary strategies to combat oxidative stress-related diseases;
- Clinical evidence on antioxidant supplementation and therapeutic outcomes;
- Emerging trends in nutraceuticals and functional foods;
- Technological advances in antioxidant delivery and bioavailability enhancement;
- The role of the gut microbiota in modulating antioxidant metabolism and efficacy.
Given the complexity of antioxidant interactions within the human body and the influence of genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors, an interdisciplinary approach is essential. Contributions that integrate molecular biology, clinical science, nutrition, and biotechnological advances are especially encouraged.
