Object. Results on the associations of fruit and vegetable intake with risk of chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are still in conflict. Hence, we conducted a meta …

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterised by increased oxidative
stress. Dietary factors, such as ample consumption of foods rich in antioxidants, such as fruit …

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between vegetable and fruit consumption and
the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a case–control study was …

Background Fruits and vegetables, due to high antioxidant capacity, may protect the lung
from oxidative damage caused by tobacco smoke and potentially prevent chronic obstructive …

Background Pulmonary inflammation, oxidants-antioxidants imbalance, as well as innate
and adaptive immunity have been proposed as playing a key role in the development of …

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is not restricted to smokers.
Dietary habits may contribute to the disease occurrence. Epidemiological studies point to a …

Background In recent years antioxidants, foods rich in antioxidants (eg fruits, vegetables)
and fish have been suggested to protect against chronic obstructive pulmonary disease …

It is unclear why some smokers develop chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
whilst the majority do not. Antioxidants found in food may protect against lung tissue injury …
