Main Article Content

Abstract

The health-promoting effects of curcumin and resveratrol have been known for a long time. The most important features of polyphenols include their effect on blood vessels and participation in the neutralization of free oxygen radicals. Both resveratrol and curcumin exhibit antioxidant effects, and the combined use of both substances significantly improves their effectiveness. In the fight against diabetic retinopathy, the antiangiogenic effect of polyphenols also turn out to be important. Many researchers also point to the possibility of using resveratrol and curcumin in cancer therapy.
