Oats (Avena sativa L.) are rich in protein, fiber, calcium, vitamins (B, C, E, and K), amino acids, and antioxidants (beta-carotene, polyphenols, chlorophyll, and flavonoids). β-glucan and avenanthramides improve the immune system, eliminate harmful substances from the body, reduce blood cholesterol, and help with dietary weight loss by enhancing the lipid profile and breaking down fat in the body. β-glucan regulates insulin secretion, preventing diabetes. Progladins also lower cholesterol levels, suppress the accumulation of triglycerides, reduce blood sugar levels, suppress inflammation, and improve skin health. Saponin-based avanacosidase and functional substances of flavone glycoside improve the immune function, control inflammation, and prevent infiltration in the skin. Moreover, lignin and phytoestrogen prevent hormone-related cancer and improve the quality of life of postmenopausal women. Sprouted oats are rich in saponarin in detoxifying the liver. The literatures have been reviewed and the recent concepts and prospects have been summarized with figures and tables. This review discusses recent trends in research on the functionality of oats rather than their nutritional value with individual immunity for self-medication. The oat and its acting components have been revisited for the future prospect and development of human healthy and functional sources.

燕麦 (Avena sativa L.) 对人体健康的多种抗氧化和生物活性分子

燕麦（Avena sativaL.) 富含蛋白质、纤维、钙、维生素（B、C、E 和 K）、氨基酸和抗氧化剂（β-胡萝卜素、多酚、叶绿素和类黄酮）。β-葡聚糖和燕麦蒽酰胺可改善免疫系统，消除体内有害物质，降低血液中的胆固醇，并通过提高体内脂质和分解脂肪来帮助减肥。β-葡聚糖调节胰岛素分泌，预防糖尿病。Progladins 还能降低胆固醇水平，抑制甘油三酯的积累，降低血糖水平，抑制炎症，改善皮肤健康。基于皂苷的阿瓦那糖苷酶和黄酮糖苷的功能性物质可提高免疫功能，控制炎症，防止皮肤浸润。而且，木质素和植物雌激素可预防激素相关癌症并提高绝经后妇女的生活质量。发芽的燕麦含有丰富的皂苷，可以为肝脏解毒。回顾了文献，并用图表总结了最近的概念和前景。这篇综述讨论了燕麦的功能性研究的最新趋势，而不是它们的营养价值与自我用药的个体免疫力。燕麦及其作用成分已被重新审视，以用于人类健康和功能来源的未来前景和发展。这篇综述讨论了燕麦的功能性研究的最新趋势，而不是它们的营养价值与自我用药的个体免疫力。燕麦及其作用成分已被重新审视，以用于人类健康和功能来源的未来前景和发展。这篇综述讨论了燕麦的功能性研究的最新趋势，而不是它们的营养价值与自我用药的个体免疫力。燕麦及其作用成分已被重新审视，以用于人类健康和功能来源的未来前景和发展。
