Numerous clinical and epidemiological studies have led to the result that polyphenol intake may protect against chronic diseases such as cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, or type 2 diabetes, to name some. Polyphenol intake estimation can be obtained through food frequency questionnaires and nutritional biomarkers, both having their own advantages and disadvantages. Although the association between these bioactive compounds and health seems irrefutable, many questions remain still unanswered. For instance, more studies are needed to identify possible interactions and effect-modulating variables, such as smoking habit, body mass index, sex, alcohol, hormones, other foods, etc. Moreover, intestinal microbiota seems to play an important role in the metabolism of polyphenols, but it is still unclear how.Biology, life sciencesbicsscResearch & information: generalbicsscadipose tissueagingatherosclerosisattentionberriesblack sorghumbraincatechinscognitionconcentration-responsedark chocolatedepressiondiabetesdietary flavonoidsendocrineestrogenicflavonoidsflaxseedsfruitsgene expressionglignansHDL-cholesterolhealthinsulin secretionisoflavoneslignanslipid metabolismmangiferinmango leaf extractMediterranean dietmemorymental healthmenumetabolic regulationmetabolic syndromen/aNHANESnon-alcoholic fatty liver diseasenursing homeobesityphenolic acidsphenolic extractsphysical healthplatelet microparticlesplateletspolyphenolpolyphenolspsychological well-beingresidential carerice bransleep disorderssleep durationsoystages of lifestilbenesurinary phytoestrogensvegetablesβ-cell functionBiology, life sciencesResearch & information: generalTresserra-Rimbau Annaedt1327832Tresserra-Rimbau AnnaothBOOK9910557682403321Dietary Polyphenols and Human Health3038157UNINA
