With current research showing that nutraceuticals and functional foods rich in specific bioactives may have chemopreventative effects, these products are increasingly popular. However, while much in the literature supports the health-promoting features of these foods, few texts focus on their bioactive agents and their mode of action in cancer signaling. Nutraceuticals and Cancer Signalling: Clinical Aspects and Mode of Action explains the link between nutraceuticals and cancer in terms of clinical trials and modes of action. This book gives an overview of common cancers and their mechanisms, and the most common functional foods and their bioactive components. Individual chapters focus on specific functional foods--including tomatoes, garlic, honey, tea, yoghurt, and many more--their prominent bioactive compounds, and their mode of action in cancer signaling and chemoprevention. Recent findings on cancer-prevention roles of different vitamins and minerals are also discussed. For food scientists, nutritionists, and pharmaceutical experts looking to understand how functional foods can play a role in fighting cancer, this text serves as a one-stop reference. 410 0$aFood Bioactive Ingredients,$x2661-8966 606 $aMedicine$xResearch 606 $aBiology$xResearch 606 $aNutrition 606 $aFood science 606 $aChemistry, Organic 606 $aBiomedical Research 606 $aNutrition 606 $aFood Science 606 $aOrganic Chemistry 615 0$aMedicine$xResearch. 615 0$aBiology$xResearch. 615 0$aNutrition. 615 0$aFood science. 615 0$aChemistry, Organic. 615 14$aBiomedical Research. 615 24$aNutrition. 615 24$aFood Science. 615 24$aOrganic Chemistry. 676 $a616.9940654 702 $aSilva$b Ana Sanches 702 $aJafari$b Seid Mahdi 702 $aNabavi$b Seyed Mohammad 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910502642003321 996 $aNutraceuticals and Cancer signaling$92884346 997 $aUNINA
