Last Updated: 2015-07-17
Study Overview
This article is a narrative review as opposed to a more objective systematic review, intended to summarize the science on the influence of whole foods, phytonutrients, and other food-based components on specific metabolic detoxification pathways (phase I cytochrome enzymes, phase II conjugation enzymes, antioxidant support systems and metallothionein) for naturopathic therapies (1). It cites studies about detoxification by the predominantly liver expressed enzymes (cytochrome...
