Phytochemicals are non-nutritive plant chemicals that protect us and prevent us from diseases. There are thousands of known phytochemicals, e.g. in tomatoes, soy and in fruits. While these are known helpful antioxidants, their potential toxicity is essential for identifying any risks for humans.
Providing the scientific background on the risk and safety assessment of toxicity in phytochemicals in everyday food, this monograph contains the pros and cons of 20 testing methods, with comments by the internationally acknowledged and independent DFG Senate Commission on Food Safety.Supplemented by 40 poster contributions on phytochemicals and their effects.
