Antioxidants

Posted by stan_the_man70 on February 3, 2016, at 10:36:07

This is just my understanding from various sources.
If you have a better summary or understanding or overview or reference then please post.

-------------------------------------------

Vitamins :

A vitamins
(animal Retinoids(retinol, retinal, retinoic acid, retinyl esters),
plant Carotenoids (Carotenes(alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, gamma-carotene, delta-carotene, epsilon carotene, zeta-carotene),
Xanthophylls(astaxanthin, beta-cryptoxanthin, canthaxanthin, fucoxanthin, lutein, neoxanthin, violaxanthin, zeaxanthin)) )

B vitamins (B1 B2 B3 B5 B6 B7 B9 B12 choline)
Vitamin C ( L-ascorbic acid )
D vitamins (D1 D2 D3 D4 D5)
E vitamins ( four tocopherols (alpha- (α-), beta- (β-), gamma- (γ-), and delta- (δ-)) and
four tocotrienols (alpha- (α-), beta- (β-), gamma- (γ-), and delta- (δ-)))
K vitamins (K1 K2 (MK-4 MK-7) K3 K4 K5)

Minerals - copper, zinc, selenium, iron, manganese

-----------------------------------------------------

Natural Phenols :

Flavonoids
(Flavones, Flavonols, Flavanones, Flavanols and their polymers, Isoflavone phytoestrogens, Stilbenoids, Anthocyanins)

Phenolic acids and their esters
(Chicoric acid, Chlorogenic acid, Cinnamic acid, Ellagic acid, Ellagitannins, Gallic acid, Gallotannins, Rosmarinic acid, Salicylic acid)

Other nonflavonoid phenolics
(Curcumin, Flavonolignans, Xanthones, Eugenol)


Other organic antioxidants (Capsaicin, Bilirubin, Citric acid, N-Acetylcysteine, Lipoic acid, Uric acid)

----------------------------------------------

High ORAC exotic fruits :

goji, noni, mangosteen, acai, camu camu, maqui, aloe vera
SCHISANDRA, ROSEHIPS, BAOBAB, ACEROLA CHERRY, AMLA BERRIES, durian fruit, golden berries, Red Jujube Dates, blueberries, seabuckthorn

----------------------------------

Classifications and types and categories:

Water-soluble (blood plasma surrounding the cells)
Fat-soluble (cell membrane)
Both water-soluble and fat-soluble (inside of the cells, as the cells contain water)

Small-molecule antioxidants: (vitamins C and E, glutathione, lipoic acid, carotenoids, and CoQ10)
Large-protein antioxidants: (albumin)

Enzymes and coenzymes: produced by body (SOD, glutathione Peroxidase, glutathione reductase , catalase), (DHEA, Coenzyme Q10, Melatonin)
Co-factors: iron, copper, selenium, magnesium, zinc, Iodide
Vitamins: Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Vitamin K
Phyto: (Carotenoids, Flavonoids, Allyl sulfides, Polyphenols )


Antioxidant proteins: Alpha Lipoic Acid, Glutathione
Hydrogen
Network Antioxidants: work together (Lipoic Acid, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Coenzyme Q10, Glutathione)
Network Boosters: helpers may not be antioxidants (The Flavonoids Family, The Carotenoids Family, Selenium)

Universal Antioxidant: Alpha Lipoic Acid (both fat and water soluble, recycles all other antioxidants)
Master Antioxidant: Gluthatione (ability to regenerate itself and most antioxidants)

-------------------------------------------
Antioxidants by probable uses:

Brain:
L-Methionine - neurotransmitters
Ginkgo - blood flow
Green Tea - EGCG

Anti-inflammatory:
Curcumin - anti-inflammatory and anti-malignancy
Bioperine - improves efficacy
Chaparral - anti cancer

Cellular: Neutralize superoxide radical and peroxide radicals - mitochondrial energy
Superoxide Dismutase - neutralizes reactive oxygen - superoxide radical - hydroxyl radical
Catalase - neutralize peroxide radicals
Selenium - synergistic with glutathione and catalase
N-Acetyl-Cysteine - raise glutathione
R. Lipoic Acid - mitochondria energy - glutathione boost
Biotin - along with lipoic avid
PQQ - mitochondrial survival

Eyes:
Vitamin A
Lutein - combines with vitamin C
Lycopene - zinc antagonist
Bilberry - anthocyanosides - bioflavonoids
Zeaxanthin - xanthophylls
Astaxanthin - Krill
Fucoidan - from seaweed

Bioflavonoid:
Hesperidin -
Rutin - helps vitamin C
Quercetin - cell walls

OPCs:
Pterostilbene - phytoalexins - mitochondrial function - cardiovascular health - anti-aging and cognitive function
OPCs - oligomeric proanthocyanidins - grape seed extract
Pycnogenol - oxidative stress - bark of the French maritime pine
Resveratrol - grape skin
