Lipid oxidation in foods produce the peroxidation products, toxic substance and rancidity odor. In vivo, lipid peroxidation by free radicals or molecular singlet oxygen cause such as a damage of DNA, cancer and aging. Accordingly, the development of new compound inhibit lipid oxidation in foods and in vivo is very important. Antioxidants are generally used as a protection material of oxidation for a storage and preservation of foods. In terms of stability of foods and health for human, development of a high effective antioxidants in a nature is required. In this point of view, this paper presents the research trends of a kind of natural antioxidative substances and its antioxidative activity.
