Abstract
Natural antioxidants possess strong potential to inhibit oxidative stress by controlling the formation and scavenging the free radicals, known as reactive oxygen species (ROS). The ROS is a collective term and including both oxygen radicals and several non-radical oxidizing agents that participate in the initiation and/ or propagation of chain reaction [1,2].
