ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a composition comprising a green-yellow vegetable (e.g., broccoli, spinach, parsley, komatsuna (Brassica rapaL.), Japanese radish leaves) and a light-colored vegetable (e.g., lettuce, cabbage, celery), the composition having the following effects:(1) inhibiting the generation of blood lipid peroxide;(2) lowering blood TBARS levels or suppressing the elevation of blood TBARS levels;(3) increasing blood vitamin E levels;(4) enhancing blood antioxidant activity;(5) enhancing blood TRAP levels;(6) lowering blood active oxygen levels or suppressing the elevation of blood active oxygen levels; and(7) preventing or treating diabetic complications.
