Association of fruits and vegetables consumption with inflammatory and oxidative stress markers in Cuban adolescents
Keywords:
Frequency of food consumption, Fruit and vegetable consumption, Oxidative stress indicators, Inflammation indicators, Adolescents.Abstract
With the objective of identifying the relationship between the consumption of fruits and vegetables, the indicators of oxidative stress and inflammation, a cross-sectional study was carried out with 39 adolescents. Of the indicators of oxidative stress, malondialdehyde, advanced products of protein oxidation and ferric reducing power were determined in the blood serum, and reduced glutathione in erythrocytes and, as an indicator of inflammation, the leukocyte count and the differential count. Significant associations were found across the quartiles of vegetable and fruit consumption with ferric reducing potential and reduced glutathione with an increase in both, as well as with malondialdehyde and products of advanced protein oxidation, with a decrease in these. It is concluded that the greater consumption of vegetables and fruits was associated with variations in the biomarkers of oxidative stress, with an increase in the indicators of antioxidant defenses and a decrease in those of inflammatory oxidative damage.
