Impact of cocoa flavanols on human health
Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2021 Cocoa is a source of flavanols, and these phenolic compounds exert beneficial effects on health and aging, and reduce the risk of suffering chronic diseases (cardiovascular diseases, metabolic disorders, cancer). An increasing body of evidence has emerged to suggest that cocoa flavanols potentially are important chemopreventive natural agents.

On the bioavailability of flavanols and anthocyanins: Flavanol–anthocyanin dimers
Food Chemistry, 2012The bioavailability of flavanols, anthocyanins and anthocyanin-derived pigments like flavanol-anthocyanin dimers already reported to occur in food products is a major unsolved issue. The absorption of the flavanol-anthocyanin dimer (+)-catechin-(4,8)-malvidin-3-O-glucoside (Cat-Mv3glc) through Caco-2 cells was assessed by performing transepithelial ...

Cocoa Flavanols and Brain Perfusion
Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 2006Foods and beverages rich in flavonoids are being heralded as potential preventive agents for a range of pathologic conditions, ranging from hypertension to coronary heart disease to stroke and dementia. We and others have demonstrated that short-term ingestion of cocoa, particularly rich in the subclass of flavonoids known as flavanols, induced a ...

Dietary Flavanols and Platelet Reactivity
Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 2006Epidemiology studies suggest that the consumption of diets rich in flavonoids is associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular disease. Plant-derived foods and beverages, such as red wine, tea, grape and grape juice, cocoa and chocolate, can be rich in 1 particular class of flavonoid, the flavan-3-ols.

Flavanols and Proanthocyanidins
2014There are many kinds of natural, oligo- and polymeric materials with very specific, almost unique properties. In the field of redox active secondary metabolites, the class of ‘condensed’ polyphenolic flavonoids, often referred to as proanthocyanidins or––at higher molecular weight––as tannins clearly stands out. Such substances are found in many edible

Hypertension, the Kuna, and the Epidemiology of Flavanols
Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 2006A low sodium diet has often been implicated in the protection of low blood pressure populations from hypertension, but several other dietary factors, including those as yet unidentified, may also be involved. The Kuna Indians of Panama are free of hypertension and cardiovascular disease, but this is changing with migration to urban areas.

Simplified analysis of flavanols in matcha tea
Food Chemistry, 2022Matcha tea contains only the softer parts of the tea leaves and is finely ground. Therefore, extraction of the flavanols for analysis by HPLC is possible by a simpler protocol compared to the ISO 14502-2 method. 21 different simplified extraction methods were screened and five of them gave equal results as the ISO 14502-2 method.

The Anti-inflammatory Properties of Cocoa Flavanols
Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 2006Signs of chronic or acute inflammation have been demonstrated in most cardiovascular diseases of multifactorial pathogenesis, including atherosclerosis and chronic heart failure. The triggers and mechanisms leading to inflammation may vary between clinical conditions but they share many common mediators, including specific patterns of eicosanoid and ...

Chemistry of Natural Compounds, 2004
Plants of the Limonium bicolor (Plumbaginaceae) genus are rich sources of flavonoids [1, 2]. Many of them are used in folk and modern medicine [3–6]. The aerial part of Limonium bicolor Kunze (Bge.) can be used as traditional medicine to enrich the blood and hemostasis, to cure emmeniopathy, as well as to treat carcinoma uteri. [3].

Studies on the Flavanols in Tea
Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1965A study was made of the enzymic oxidation of various flavanols, alone or in combination of them. The results confirmed that the oxidation of mixtures containing the catechol flavanols and (–)-epigallocatechin developed remarkable red colors. In addition to the current information some other courses producing the theaflavin-like substance were found ...
