Polyphenols have an ability to influence some of the common denominators of aging, such as telomere attrition, epigenetic alterations, and mitochondrial dysfunction. In addition, the book discusses the clinical and epidemiological evidence that indicates the consumption of polyphenols may improve a number of health-related variables in older adults.
This book will be a valuable resource for geriatricians, gerontologist and members of nutrition field who are interested in how polyphenols can help to extend the healthy period of life and delay the onset of chronic diseases.
- Describes the impact of polyphenols on the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying aging
- Includes clinical insights on polyphenols that can be applied to a wide range of aging diseases
- Presents population studies that support the preventive role of polyphenols against age-related pathologies
Nutrition researchers, nutritionists, dieticians, geriatricians, gerontologists, clinicians, pharmaceutical scientists and those researching, studying, and teaching related areas
