Food products may contain protective or harmful effects on enzymes or transporters. Several notable examples are included in this sunrise session. Fruit juices and herbal products as well as nutrient supplements are part of food intake in every day life. The manner in which juices and herbal and nutraceutical products affect enzymes and transporters has not been fully characterized. This sunrise session will summarize the latest studies on these, and include other food stuff such as garlic and green tea effects. The pros and cons of the interactions are highlighted.
