What is it about?

• This review paper examines the potential health benefits of plant-derived antioxidant peptides, which are molecules found in food sources that can help protect against oxidative damage. It looks at recent research into their biological effects and mechanisms, as well as how they interact with other substances to produce an antioxidant effect. The authors also discuss studies that have successfully determined the sequences of these peptides and assess their effectiveness using cellular or animal models.
