This paper reviews the potential role of honey as a therapeutic antioxidant to reduce oxidative stress and improve cognitive ageing. All articles indexed to PubMed Central (PMC) were searched using the following key words: honey, antioxidant, memory and ageing. Honey is a natural insect-derived product with therapeutic, medicinal and nutritional values. Antioxidant properties of honey quench biologically-circulating reactive oxygen species (ROS) and counter oxidative stress while restoring the cellular antioxidant defense system. Antioxidant properties of honey may complement its nootropic effects to reduce cognitive ageing.
本文综述了蜂蜜作为一种治疗性抗氧化剂在减轻氧化应激和改善认知衰老方面的潜在作用。使用以下关键词在PubMed Central(PMC)中检索所有索引文章:蜂蜜、抗氧化剂、记忆和衰老。蜂蜜是一种天然的昆虫衍生产品,具有治疗、药用和营养价值。蜂蜜的抗氧化特性可清除生物循环中的活性氧(ROS),对抗氧化应激,同时恢复细胞抗氧化防御系统。蜂蜜的抗氧化特性可能会补充其益智作用,以减少认知衰老。
