Gut microbiota generate dinitrosyl iron complexes with cardiometabolic benefits https://medicalxpress.com/news/2026-08-gut-bacteria-spinach-beets-iron.html Gut bacteria may transform spinach, beets and plant iron into protective compounds https://www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(26)00924-4 Darmbakterien können Spinat, Rote Bete und pflanzliches Eisen in schützende Verbindungen umwandeln. „Wir beobachteten unter anderem einen niedrigeren Blutdruck und eine verbesserte Gefäßfunktion, eine bessere Blutzuckerkontrolle und eine verringerte Fetteinlagerung in der Leber. Die Ergebnisse tragen dazu bei, zu erklären, warum eine Ernährung reich an Gemüse, das sowohl Nitrat als auch Eisen enthält, mit einem geringeren Risiko für verschiedene Krankheiten verbunden ist."

Astaxanthin binds to interleukin-6 (IL-6), making it a key core target of its anti-inflammatory effects. https://pubs.rsc.org/fo/article/15/8/4207/850827/Astaxanthin-targets-IL-6-and-alleviates-the-LPS AST exhibits anti-oxidative stress, anti-cell damage, anti-inflammatory effects. It protects against cell damage, stimulates p53, inhibits STAT3. Seine Aktivität ist zudem zehnmal höher als die von Zeaxanthin, Lycopin, Lutein, Hordenin und β-Carotin. Nicht nur Astaxanthin, sondern auch Lutein und Zeaxanthin sind nachweislich in hoher Konzentration im menschlichen Gehirn und in der Macula lutea (dem gelben Fleck der Netzhaut) des Auges vorhanden. Um dorthin zu gelangen, müssen sie zwingend die Blut-Hirn- beziehungsweise Blut-Retina-Schranke passieren. Auch andere Vertreter wie Lycopin wurden im zentralen Nervensystem nachgewiesen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7q7Ruh4m9RU
