Antioxidant nutrients and immune functions

These proceedings of a symposium in Los Angeles, September 1988, survey the effects of vitamins A, C, and E; the provitamin beta carotene; the key micronutrients zinc, copper, and selenium, polyunsaturated lipids, and natural antioxidants in human milk on cells of the immune and phagocytic systems and on the biochemical reactions that underlie their functions. Such research is leading to new definitions of adequate nutrition.
