Zusammenfassung:Total antioxidant capacity is a measure of the cumulative reducing power of a given sample and has been previously studied in serum and plant matter and may be a potential objective measure for fruit and vegetable intake. Design - Cross-sectional study of 40 adults (30 male, 10 female), mean age 57.4±11.7y (±SD), mean BMI 28.8±3.3kg/m2; servings of fruit and vegetables determined using a food frequency questionnaire and were correlated with serum total antioxidant capacity measured by the Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power Assay.
