          Abstract

          Resumen Introducción y objetivo: el embarazo es una etapa de la vida con alta vulnerabilidad nutricional y aumento de los niveles de estrés oxidativo en la madre. La capacidad antioxidante total (CAT) identifica el efecto protector de la dieta equilibrada, rica en alimentos de origen vegetal con actividad antioxidante. El objetivo de este estudio fue relacionar la CAT con la ingesta dietética y el índice de masa corporal (IMC) en mujeres gestantes pertenecientes a la Comunidad de Madrid. Métodos: se realizó un estudio transversal comparativo de 89 mujeres gestantes y 61 mujeres sanas en edad reproductiva. Se registraron la edad, el lugar de origen, el peso, la estatura, el IMC, la ingesta de macronutrientes y micronutrientes, y la CAT dietética por frecuencia alimentaria; la CAT se clasificó como deseable (≥ 19.301,0 µm/g) y no deseable (< 19.301,0 µm/g); el análisis estadístico, con la prueba del χ², la prueba de la t de Student o la prueba de la U de Mann Whitney, se realizó de acuerdo con la normalidad de las variables en la población estudiada. Se utilizó el programa SPSS, versión 23. Resultados: se encontraron diferencias en el perfil calórico, la ingesta de micronutrientes antioxidantes y la CAT dietética (p < 0,05). La CAT promedio en las gestantes fue de 23.163,0 ± 10.829,0 µm/g, frente a 25.916,0 ± 9.703,0 µm/g en las no gestantes (p = 0,035). Las gestantes con CAT deseable (56,2 %) preferían consumir frutas y verduras, mientras que el 65,6 % de las mujeres no gestantes preferían el pan, la pasta y los cereales (p = 0,03). La fruta de mano, los frutos cítricos, las verduras de hoja verde y el tomate eran consumidos preferentemente por ambos grupos. En las mujeres gestantes, en cuanto al estado nutricional deficiente, la tasa de sobrepeso y obesidad fue del 36,0 %, frente al 28,0 % entre las no gestantes (p < 0,001). Conclusión: el IMC de las mujeres gestantes no está relacionado con la CAT dietética ni con el relativo bajo consumo de componentes antioxidantes.

          Abstract Introduction and objective: pregnancy is a stage of life with high nutritional vulnerability and increased levels of maternal oxidative stress. Total antioxidant capacity (CAT) identifies the protective effect of a balanced diet rich in foods of plant origin with antioxidant activity. The aim of this study was to relate CAT with dietary intake and body mass index (BMI) in pregnant women in the Community of Madrid. Methods: a cross-sectional, comparative study was conducted in 89 pregnant women and 61 healthy women of reproductive age. Age, place of origin, weight, height, BMI, macronutrient and micronutrient intake, and dietary CAT by food frequency were recorded; CAT was classified as desirable (≥ 19,301.0 µm/g) or undesirable (< 19,301.0 µm/g); the statistical analysis, including χ², Student's t-test or Mann Whitney U-test, was made using the SPSS program v.23. Results: differences were found in caloric profile, intake of antioxidant micronutrients, and dietary CAT (p < 0.05). Mean CAT in pregnant women was 23,163.0 ± 10,829.0 µm/g, whereas in non-pregnant women it was 25,916.0 ± 9,703.0 µm/g (p = 0.035). Pregnant women with a desirable CAT (56.2 %) preferred to consume fruits and vegetables, and 65.6 % of non-pregnant women preferred bread, pasta and cereals (p = 0.02). Hand fruit, citrus fruits, green leafy vegetables, and tomato were preferentially consumed by both groups. In pregnant women, poor nutritional status, overweight, and obesity rates of 36.0 % were found versus 28.0 % in non-pregnant women (p < 0.001). Conclusion: the BMI of pregnant women is not related to dietary CAT or the relatively low consumption of antioxidant components.

          The total antioxidant content of more than 3100 foods, beverages, spices, herbs and supplements used worldwide

          Background A plant-based diet protects against chronic oxidative stress-related diseases. Dietary plants contain variable chemical families and amounts of antioxidants. It has been hypothesized that plant antioxidants may contribute to the beneficial health effects of dietary plants. Our objective was to develop a comprehensive food database consisting of the total antioxidant content of typical foods as well as other dietary items such as traditional medicine plants, herbs and spices and dietary supplements. This database is intended for use in a wide range of nutritional research, from in vitro and cell and animal studies, to clinical trials and nutritional epidemiological studies. Methods We procured samples from countries worldwide and assayed the samples for their total antioxidant content using a modified version of the FRAP assay. Results and sample information (such as country of origin, product and/or brand name) were registered for each individual food sample and constitute the Antioxidant Food Table. Results The results demonstrate that there are several thousand-fold differences in antioxidant content of foods. Spices, herbs and supplements include the most antioxidant rich products in our study, some exceptionally high. Berries, fruits, nuts, chocolate, vegetables and products thereof constitute common foods and beverages with high antioxidant values. Conclusions This database is to our best knowledge the most comprehensive Antioxidant Food Database published and it shows that plant-based foods introduce significantly more antioxidants into human diet than non-plant foods. Because of the large variations observed between otherwise comparable food samples the study emphasizes the importance of using a comprehensive database combined with a detailed system for food registration in clinical and epidemiological studies. The present antioxidant database is therefore an essential research tool to further elucidate the potential health effects of phytochemical antioxidants in diet.
