Abstract:
Obesity,one of the most common health problems,is associated with glucose and lipid metabolism abnormalities,increased cardiovascular risk and oxidative stress[1].Aging is also associated with an increase in oxidative stress[2].Considering that older adults are already at risk for oxidant stress,the additional metabolic perturbations of obesity aggravated the susceptibility to oxidant stress.Modulating age-related oxidative stress via dietary interventions could reduce free radical production and significantly improve health in aging.
