Spices and herbs: Natural sources of antioxidants – a mini review

Open access
Embuscado, Milda E.·2015·Journal of Functional Foods

Abstract

Spices and herbs are rich sources of powerful antioxidants. Spices and herbs have been used for flavour, colour and aroma for more than 2000 years. They have also been used for preservation of foods and beverages primarily due to their phytochemicals. The antioxidants in spices and herbs are very effective because they possess excellent antioxidant activity. The spices and herbs have been used as antioxidants as whole or ground spice/herb, extracts, encapsulated or as emulsions. Aside from their efficacy as antioxidants, spices and herbs are classified as all natural, an attractive quality for consumers. Thus, spices and herbs may be used as a means to control lipid oxidation in foods. Furthermore, the future of spices and herbs as effective antioxidants is discussed and expected trends are summarized.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
