Regenerative organic agriculture (ROA) combines ecological and organic principles to promote soil health, biodiversity, and long-term sustainability. This narrative review explores the connection between soil quality, food nutritional value, and human health, highlighting how ROA can enhance phytochemical content and reduce harmful residues in plant-based foods. Empirical studies report increases in vitamin C, zinc, and polyphenols in crops such as leafy greens, grapes, and carrots grown under regenerative systems, along with reductions in nitrates and pesticide residues. We summarize recent literature (2000-2025) that links soil-driven improvements in food composition to antioxidant activity and potential health benefits. By addressing current research gaps, this review supports the role of ROA in building resilient food systems and preventing chronic disease.
再生有机农业(ROA)将生态和有机原则相结合,以促进土壤健康、生物多样性和长期可持续性。这篇叙述性综述探讨了土壤质量、食物营养价值和人类健康之间的联系,强调了再生有机农业如何提高植物性食物中的植物化学物质含量并减少有害残留物。实证研究报告称,在再生系统下种植的绿叶蔬菜、葡萄和胡萝卜等作物中,维生素C、锌和多酚的含量有所增加,同时硝酸盐和农药残留量有所减少。我们总结了最近的文献(2000 - 2025年),这些文献将土壤驱动的食物成分改善与抗氧化活性和潜在的健康益处联系起来。通过弥补当前的研究空白,本综述支持了再生有机农业在构建有韧性的食物系统和预防慢性病方面的作用。
