Food and Living Organism
Essential nutrients available from food are fats, proteins, carbohydrates, Vitamins, minerals.
Food provides : nutritional support for the body energy, maintains life and stimulates growth
Foods types are classified as per their source & process of preparation like :
• plant source foods e.g. vegetables/fruits• animal source foods e.g. meat/eggs • sea foods e.g. fish/crab/lobster Dehydrates, oils and frozen foods of above sources •processed / frozen foods e.g. bread/jelly

Oxidation: Biggest challenge to Food
Food Oxidation is one of the major causes of food spoilage
Major source of decreasing the nutritional quality of food
Potential to generate toxics like hydrogen peroxides, hyperoxides, ketones
Food Oxidation is a …….
Reaction that takes place when oxygen has access to products containing fat or pigments

Oxidation: Biggest challenge to Food
Food Oxidation is one of the major causes of food spoilage
If fats oxidize, they produce “off” odors and flavors (stale, rancid odors)
If pigments oxidize, they change color completelyFor example, Red meat turns grey when the myoglobin pigment oxidizes
AfterOxidation Before

WHAT is Rancidity and HOW it affects Food
Rancidity : - is oxidation of fats into aldehydes and ketones - severely compromises the quality of food products
- gives objectionable taste and odor in food- limits their shelf-life - leads to loss of colour- limits nutrient value of food- Leads to accumulation of toxic compounds in body
All foods that contain lipids, even at a very low level (<1%), are susceptible to oxidation, leading to rancidity
Free Radicals : The Reason Behind Food Oxidation
Free radicals are atoms , molecules or ions that are highly reactive with other cellular structures because they contain unpaired electrons.
Free radicals are formed when a weak chemical bond between molecules or atoms breaks leaving behind ion, atom or molecule with unpaired electron.
Free radicals are natural by-products of our body’s metabolic processes and immune system responses ( to neutralize viruses and bacteria).
Environmental factors such as Sunlight, heat, transition metals, pollution, radiation, cigarette smoke and herbicides can also create free radicals.
Free Radicals : The Reason Behind Food Oxidation
Free radicals attack the nearest stable molecule, "stealing" its electron.
When the "attacked" molecule loses its electron, it becomes a free radical itself, beginning a chain reaction
Free radicals can cause damage to parts of cells such as proteins, DNA, and cell membranes by stealing their electrons through a process called oxidation.
Free radicals are very unstable and react quickly with other compounds, trying to capture the needed electron to gain stability
This is why free radical damage is also called “oxidative damage.”
When free radicals oxidize important components of the cell, they lose their ability to function normally & may cause the cell to die
Food Oxidation process explained…
Antioxidant as Food PreservativesOne of the most effective ways of retarding lipid oxidation in foods is
to incorporate antioxidants
Antioxidants donate an electron to the free radical before it can oxidize other cell components
Antioxidants donate an electron to the free radical before it can oxidize other cell components
Once the electrons of the free radical are paired, the free radical is stabilized and becomes non-toxic to cells
Antioxidant as Food Preservatives
The antioxidant molecule oxidize itself & neutralize a free radical molecule, breaking the chain reaction
The resulting antioxidant free radical does not initiate another free radical due to the stabilization of delocalization of radical electron. It is not subject to oxidation due to its stability.
The antioxidant free radicals react with other free radicals to form stable complex compounds
Damaging free radical Neutralised free radical
Radical now in a stable pair

The Discovery…..
THE YEAR : 1922THE RESEARCHERS : Herbert Evans and Katherine Bishop THE UNIVERSITY : University of California THE SOURCE : Green Leafy Vegetables
Vitamin E : Tocopherols & Tocotrienols
Vitamin E Family consist of 8 Compounds : 4 Tocopherols & 4 Tocotrienols
Alpha
Beta
Gamma
Delta
Gamma
Beta
Alpha
Delta
Matrix Vitamin E is a Natural BlendOf Mixed Tocopherols
Consist of all 4 Forms of Tocopherols - alpha, beta, gamma & delta 80 % of these are Delta & Gamma – Tocopherols which exhibits the highest Antioxidant properties
Though d-alpha tocopherol is most prominent among Vitamin E family members, we get maximum benefit by combinations of all Tocopherols
d- alpha-tocopherol
The most abundant of the 8 compounds in our & animal bodies
The most potent of the eight compounds
Only available as an individual compound. The other seven members of Vitamin E (3 tocopherol & 4 Tocotrienols) are available only as mixture
Produced both in natural & synthetic form. Other seven members have only natural forms
Tocopherol - Chemistry
- Tocopherols function to capture and interrupt free radical chain reactions. This gives them their antioxidant properties
- The free hydroxyl group on the aromatic ring is responsible for the antioxidant properties
- The hydrogen from this group is donated to the free radical, resulting in a relatively stable free radical form of the vitamin
What is Better…. Natural vs. Synthetic Vitamin E
Natural Vs Synthetic Antioxidant
Natural Antioxidant
1. Derived from natural sources like soya & sunflower and contains no addictives
2. Provide great nutritional value along with its main function of anti-oxidation.
3. Do not have any side effects & has GRAS status by FDA and no usage upper limit.
Synthetic Antioxidant
1. Synthetic antioxidant like THBQ,BHA, BHT, PG are synthetically prepared in laboratories & are basically chemicals
2. Do not provide any nutritional value
3. Are known to be cytotoxic as they found to increase toxicity in cells. It is strictly regulated & can’t be used above 200 ppm
Natural Vs Synthetic AntioxidantNatural Antioxidant
4. Increasingly being used in all countries worldwide as it is safe & natural
5. Are more readily accepted by the body & retained by human tissues for longer period
6. They have antioxidant effects in human tissues as well
7. More consumers prefer foods with natural preservatives due to additional health benefits
Synthetic Antioxidant:
4.Many synthetic antioxidant like BHA, BHT are banned in Europe, Japan as there are many evidence pointing them as carcinogenic
5. They require more effort in metabolism
6. They don’t have any antioxidant effect in human tissues
7. Consumers don’t prefer synthetic preservatives as they causes health issues like liver & kidney damage, insomnia, etc.
Naturally Occurring

Extracted from Petrochemicals
Additions of Acetic Acid and other Chemical based Ingredients Very Low Prevention from Rancidity in Oil Based Formulations
Has very low bioavailability
The Natural Vs. Synthetic Tocopherol
Our body has Tocopherol transfer protein which recognizes natural tocopherol & preferentially puts it in blood
Our body retains natural tocopherol longer in its tissues
Natural Tocopherol passes from pregnant mother to child 3 times better as compared to synthetic form
Does not have any side effects
Tocopherol transfer protein does not give preference to synthetic tocopherol & tries to flush it from body
Retention of Synthetic tocopherol in our body tissues is very low
dl-alpha Tocopherol passes only one-third from pregnant mother to child in comparison to natural form
Increases toxicity in body due to itsharmful metabolic compounds
Natural Mixed tocopherol Synthetic dl-alpha tocopherol /acetate
The Natural Vs. Synthetic Tocopherol
Synthetic Antioxidant – A Health Hazard !!!
Adverse Reactions to Synthetic Antioxidants like BHA, BHT and/ or TBHQ
Synthetic Antioxidant – A Health Hazard !!!
Synthetic Antioxidant cannot be recycled & reused by the Organism, once they have donated their electron
After showing their antioxidant property, synthetic antioxidant tends to turn into harmful metabolic by products
These By products, instead of decreasing oxidative stress on Organism increase it
Natural Antioxidant after oxidation is either re-charged by accepting an electron from another type of antioxidant OrIt is re-cycled into building material such as collagen for purposes of tissue repair.
There are no By-products in case of natural antioxidant
Synthetic Antioxidant – A Health Hazard !!!
Synthetic Antioxidant can suppress the immune system or disrupt the production of natural antioxidants in the body.
E.g. - Glutathione, an antioxidant made by the liver, is readily depleted due to toxic by products produced by synthetic antioxidants
They can disrupt normal biochemical pathways in the body, due to production of by product hydrogen peroxide
The hydrogen peroxide undergoes metabolic breakdown under oxidative stress leading to the formation of more hydroxyl radicals
Synthetic antioxidant actually accelerate free radical biochemistry

Synthetic Antioxidant – A Health Hazard !!!
Both BHA and BHT influence cellular metabolism through induction of various drug metabolizing enzymes such as cytochrome P450, cytochrome b, NADH reductase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase
BHA causes increase in organ weight like hypertrophy of liver, thyroid, adrenals, lungs and proliferation of endoplasmic reticulum in liver cells
BHT may also cause decrease in lung & kidney cells and cell growth inhibition
Both BHA and BHT might cause induction of chromosomal & sperm abnormalities & cause decrease in smooth muscle and heart muscle contractility
BHA might cause alteration of lipid composition in liver, serum & platelets and might cause lesions in fore stomach
Synthetic Antioxidant – A Health Hazard !!!
BHT may cause inhibition of repair DNA synthesis & vitamin K antagonism leading to a decrease in clotting factors.
Tertiary-Butylhydroquinone (tBHQ), one of the degradation products of BHA is known to exert carcinogenic effects by causing oxidative damage to DNA
Synthetic antioxidant intake is strictly regulated by - • European Union Directives and Regulations, • FDA in the United States, • Food Standards Australia New Zealand for Australia and New Zealand, • Joint FAO/WHO Expert committee on food additives • FSSAI, Indiaproves the fact that they have potential harmful effects
Natural antioxidant do not have any such regulation & enjoys GRAS status worldwide
Synthetic Antioxidant – A Health Hazard !!!
BHA (Butylated hydroxyanisole) is banned in Japan while TBHQ (Tertiary-Butylhydroquinone ) is banned in Canada, Japan & all European countries
Synthetic antioxidants manufacturers suggest that intake of synthetic antioxidants within ADI (Acceptable Daily Intake) generally poses no significant health risk. However they do not mention its long term use effects
It is clinically proven that currently used synthetic antioxidants like BHA, BHT, TBHQ, PG, OG, DG have tendency to get accumulated in body
Thus long-term ingestion of these antioxidants may aid in acute toxicity of several carcinogenic / mutagenic chemicals and lead to chronic side effects

Edible Oil Processing
Crude Vegetable Oil naturally contains Vitamin E / Tocopherols which acts as primary antioxidant in its preservation
However during Oil refining process there is significant loss of Tocopherols
For e.g. The average losses of tocopherol content in sunflower seed oil during the chemical & physical refining processes were found to be 30.2% and 35.5%, respectively
Due to loss of antioxidants, the refined oil is highly vulnerable to undergo oxidation & ultimately turn rancid
Hence its extremely important to add natural mixed tocopherol to refined oil so that it replenishes the lost tocopherol level & the finished product has longer shelf life and improved nutritional value

Edible Oil & Processed Foods
The Mixed Tocopherol has 80% Delta & Gamma Tocopherol which shows the highest antioxidant properties
Processed foods are frequently subjected to Irradiation to kill the pathogenic & spoilage microorganisms
Irradiation has the ability to ionize the moisture content in food followed by formation of free radicals & peroxides
If the oil used for food preparation is fortified with additional Natural Mixed Tocopherol then the complete oxidation processed is delayed
extending the shelf life of processed foods

Repeated Heating of Edible Oil
Reusing cooking oil in food preparation, especially during deep-frying, is a common practice to save costs
Repeated heating of the oil accelerates oxidative degradation of lipids, forming hazardous reactive oxygen species
It could lead to pathologies such as hypertension, diabetes , vascular inflammation & numerous other metabolic disorders
It completely depletes the natural antioxidant contents of the cooking oil
Long-term ingestion of foods prepared using reheated oil compromises one’s antioxidant defense network
Hence taking into consideration the common practice of usage of reheated oil, its absolutely necessary to fortify cooking oil with additional Natural Mixed Tocopherol to maintain the level of antioxidant in oil

Mixed Tocopherol Mechanism in Edible Oil
Tocopherols interact with the polyunsaturated acyl groups of lipids, stabilize membranes, and scavenge and quench various Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and lipid soluble byproducts of oxidative stress
The antioxidant activity of Tocopherol is based on the ease with which the hydrogen on the hydroxyl group of the chroman ring can be donated to
neutralize a free radical
Tocopherols compete with unsaturated fats and oils for lipid peroxy radicals. Lipid peroxy radicals react with Tocopherols much faster at 104
to 109 M−1s−1 than with lipids (10 to 60 M−1s−1)
One tocopherol molecule can protect about 103 to 108 polyunsaturated fatty acid molecules

Mixed Tocopherol Mechanism in Edible Oil
Tocopheroxy radicals are more stable than lipid peroxy radicals due to resonance structures. This ultimately slows down the oil oxidation rate
in edible oil
As with phospholipids, the polar chroman ring tends to stay near the edges of the membrane, whereas the hydrophobic core will be buried deep into the membrane
Tocopherols can transfer a hydrogen atom at the 6-hydroxyl group on its chroman ring to lipid peroxy radical and scavenge the peroxy radicals
When a phospholipid tail becomes peroxidized by a free radical, the tail becomes more polar and migrates to the surface
It can then meet the tocopherol chroman ring to be neutralized, while forming a tocopheroxyl radical

Mixed Tocopherol Mechanism in Edible Oil
To minimize the oxidation of edible oil during processing and storage:
• Decrease temperature• Exclude sunlight and oxygen• Remove metals and oxidized compounds• Use Natural antioxidants such as Mixed Tocopherol
Tocopherol protects against lipid peroxidation by acting directly with a variety of oxygen radicals, singlet oxygen, lipid peroxide products, & the superoxide radical, to form a relatively safe tocopherol radical
Tocopherol is aptly called as Universal Stabilizer in Oxidation process
Moreover Tocopherol radical can be regenerated into tocopherol molecule by Vitamin C or by Ubiquinol (reduced) form of coenzyme Q10
