Abstract in brief

The study explores how air frying sardines affects the formation of cholesterol oxidation products (COPs) and the degradation of essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), finding that air frying increases COPs and decreases PUFAs, but adding natural herbs like parsley and chives can significantly reduce lipid oxidation.
Air fryers are highlighted as a healthier alternative to traditional frying because they cook food without oil, but even with this method, oxidation of lipids and cholesterol occurs during cooking, which can pose health risks.
Incorporating fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, or a mixture called cheiroverde during air frying can serve as natural antioxidants, offering a protective effect against lipid oxidation in sardines, with 4% cheiroverde providing the most significant benefit.]
