As an anti‐oxidant, kaempferol counteracts production of superoxide ions and lowers the formation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. It also scavenges Fenton‐generated hydroxyl radical, peroxynitrite, and hydroxyl radicals. Furthermore, kaempferol suppresses the activity of xanthine oxidase and enhances the activities of catalase, heme oxygenase‐1, and superoxide dismutase
