Abstract

Oxidative stress can provide a ground for the development of cardiometabolic disorders. In such conditions, increasing the power of the antioxidant agents to rebalance pro- and antioxidant markers is necessary to improve the status and prevent the progress of complications. Dietary patterns and lifestyle can play the key roles in maintaining the balance between pro- and antioxidant markers. Consumption of nutrients and food full of the anti-oxidative components is likely to be one of the main defensive methods. Although biochemical tests can show pro-oxidant and antioxidant concentrations, they are expensive. Therefore, using a valid, accessible, and inexpensive alternative tool containing main parameters affecting oxidative status will be helpful to clarify the status of body in this regard. One of the new dietary indices is the “Oxidative Balance Score” that will be introduced in the present chapter.
