For example: • Apigenin - Inhibits celluar mutation (Wang, Heideman, and Chung, “Cell-Cycle Arrest at G2/M and Growth Inhibition by Apigenin in Human Colon Carcinoma Cell Lines”, Molecular Carcinogenesis, 28:102-110, Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition, Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas, Department of Statistics, Iowa State University, Iowa, 2000; Ujiki, Ding, Salabat, “Apigenin Inhibits Pancreatic Cancer Cell Proliferation Through G2/M Cell Cycle Arrest”, Molecular Cancer, 5:76 doi:10.1186/1476-4 598-5-76,2006; Verbeek, Plomp, Tol, “The Flavones Luteolin and Apigenin Inhibit in Vitro AntigenSpecific Proliferation and Interferon-Gamma Production by Murine and Human Autoimmune T Cells”, Biochemical Pharmacology, Volume 68, Issue 4, Pages 621-629 doi:10.1016/j.bcp.2004.05.012,2004). • Resveratrol - Combats inflammation, supports vascular health, and counters age-related deterioration (Lastra and Villegas, “Resveratrol as an Anti-Inflammatory and Anti-Aging Agent: Mechanisms and Clinical Implications”, Molecular Nutrition & Food Research, 49: 405–430, doi: 10.1002/mnfr.200500022, 2005; Pearson, Baur, Lewis, “Resveratrol Delays Age-Related Deterioration and Mimics Transcriptional Aspects of Dietary Restriction without Extending Life Span”, Cell Metabolism, Volume 8, Issue 2, Pages 157-168, ISSN 1550-4131, 10.1016/j.cmet., 6.011, 2008; Delmas, Jannin, and Latruffe, “Resveratrol: Preventin Properties Against Vascular Alterations and Ageing”. Molecular Nutrition & Food Research, 49: 377–395. doi: 10.1002/mnfr.200400098, 2005). • Selenium - Extends immune system health (McKenzie, Beckett and Arthur, “Effects of Selenium on Immunity and Aging”, Laboratory for Clinical and Molecular Virology, University of Edinburgh, UK, Division of Vascular Health, Scotland, 2006; Olivieri, Stanzial, Girelli, “Selenium Status, Fatty Acids, Vitamins A and E, and Aging: the Nove Study”, University of Verona, Italy, 1995; Duffield, Slate, Reid, “Selenium Supplementation and Secondary Prevention of Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer in a Randomized Trial”, Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, 2003).
