Ebook: Micronutrients and Brain Health

Front cover; Contents; Series Preface; Preface; The Editors; Contributors; Chapter 1. Neuroprotection after Cardiac Arrest by Avoiding Acute Hyperoxia and by Antioxidant Genomic Postconditioning; Chapter 2. The Neuroprotective Role of Micronutrients in Parkinson's Disease; Chapter 3. Phytoestrogens and Brain Health; Chapter 4. Food Antioxidants and Alzheimer's Disease; Chapter 5. Micronutrient Antioxidants, Cognition, and Neuropathology: A Longitudinal Study in the Canine Model of Human Aging.;Addresses research related to processes of oxidative stress that affect brain function. This book identifies brain-specific micronutrients that support function as well as the molecular mechanisms underlying their neuroprotectant activity. It explores how brain micronutrients are found to be both metabolic and redox regulators.
