Resveratrol and caffeic acid are some of the most consumed antioxidants during the day, so their importance as sources and their benefits need to be evaluated and updated. This survey aimed not only to analyze whether young Romanian consumers are informed about the benefits of antioxidants in general, and resveratrol and caffeic acid in particular, but also to observe the degree of nutritional education of these participants. Young consumers know the concept of antioxidants relatively well; they managed to give examples of antioxidants and indicate their effects. The majority of those chosen drink wine and coffee, but many are unaware of their health advantages and antioxidant properties. Students are less familiar with the antioxidant chemicals resveratrol and caffeic acid. It is advised to have a thorough understanding of these significant antioxidants and their nutritional content as they are present in our regular diets, and further studies on different kinds of antioxidants are required to increase the awareness of people concerning their importance in daily life.
白藜芦醇和咖啡酸是白天最常食用的抗氧化剂之一，因此需要对它们作为来源的重要性及其益处进行评估和更新。本次调查不仅旨在分析罗马尼亚年轻消费者对一般抗氧化剂，特别是白藜芦醇和咖啡酸的益处的了解程度，还旨在观察这些参与者的营养教育程度。年轻消费者对抗氧化剂的概念相对了解；他们成功地给出了抗氧化剂的例子并指出了它们的作用。大多数被选择的人喝酒和咖啡，但许多人不知道它们的健康益处和抗氧化特性。学生们对化学抗氧化剂白藜芦醇和咖啡酸不太熟悉。建议深入了解这些重要的抗氧化剂及其营养成分，因为它们存在于我们的日常饮食中，还需要对不同类型的抗氧化剂进行进一步研究，以提高人们对它们在日常生活中的重要性的认识。
