SA and FA are normal human serum components provided in measurable amounts by fruit consumption.

Fruit and vegetables provide measurable amounts of bioactive compounds., that are often secondary metabolites of plants where they exert hormonal and defensive activity.In vivo several phytochemicals show healthy properties, like antioxidant or anti-inflammatory compounds, or inducing cell apoptosis.

Anti-inflammatory effect by:

•reversible inhibition of COX-1 enzyme;

•inhibition of COX-2 gene transcription;

•inhibition of NF-κB activation.

In vegetarians blood levels of salicylic acid are generally higher than non-vegetarians, with concentrations that may overlap with those of people who take 75mg/die of Aspirin.

A normal diet provides 0-7 mg/die of total salicylates. Circulating SA was related to fruit and vegetables consumption in healthy subjects.

In plants, the 95% of total FA is esterified to form lignin conferring the rigidity to the vegetal cell wall.

People can take from 80 mg to 160 mg of ferulic acid per meal depending on the amount of fruit and vegetables consumed

Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties:•Radical scavenger activity, stabilizing the phenoxyl radical intermediate and terminating the free radical chain reaction;•Inhibition of endothelial and inducible NOS (iNOS) in mouse.

Food is a complex mixture of macro and micronutrients that interact with human body producing specific metabolic and inflammatory responses relevant to health status.

A chronic systemic inflammation is reported to be involved in atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, diabetes and the metabolic syndrome. Evidences suggest that elevated levels of circulating pro-inflammatory markers (interleukin 6, C-reactive protein and tumor necrosis factor alpha) are risk factors for many chronic diseases.Several studies, that have examined the association between dietary patterns and systemic inflammation, suggest that food choices play an important role.

We hypothesized that fruit meals provide measurable amounts of the anti-inflammatory compounds salicylic (SA) and ferulic acids (FA) and produce different metabolic, endocrine and inflammatory responses compared to the bare fruit macronutrients. In this study we want also to evaluate the effects of a dietary intervention based on a fruit meal on the kinetics SA and FA in blood.

Serum concentrations of SA and FA were determined by a high selectivity and sensibility method, suitable to detect in concentrations found in aspirin-free persons, using stable isotope dilution and GC-MS. Deuterated internal standards of SA (d4-SA, M/Z 313) and FA (d3-FA, M/Z 368) were used. (Spadafranca et al.,2006)
