Abstract

Various physical or chemical injuries suffered by the human body in daily life may cause damage to internal organs in certain degrees. This chapter summarizes the protective and repairing effects of anthocyanins on heart injury, liver injury, and lung injury induced by common physical and chemical factors and concludes the protection mechanism of anthocyanins into viscera.
