AB  - According to the Food and Health Bureau and Trade and Industry Department of the 
      Hong Kong Government, 90 % of the total food supply in Hong Kong was imported 
      from the Mainland China. In addition, the hidden or illegal use of prohibited 
      pesticides, food adulteration (e.g., using industrial salt in food processing, 
      using gutter oil as cooking oil), and pollutions were periodically reported by 
      the media. Excessive exposure to toxic heavy metals or persistent organic 
      pollutants (POPs) from diet or environmental is inevitable amid industrialization 
      and pollution. Understanding of the detoxification ability among nutrients in 
      plant-based food (i.e., phytonutrients in green tea, onion, garlic, coriander, 
      and turmeric) offers therapeutic and preventive effects against the poisoning 
      effects due to these pollutants. Oxidative stress and pro-inflammatory actions 
      are the common mechanisms for heavy metals or POPs toxicities, while 
      phytonutrients counteracts these cellular insults by anti-oxidation, upregulation 
      of anti-inflammatory pathways, and chelation.
