Polyphenols and Flavones from Agricultural Products and Their Health-Promoting Properties

Polyphenol and flavone compounds are abundant in fruits, vegetables and lots of other agricultural products (such as blueberries, cherries, grapes, onions, beans, cabbage, rice, sorghum, maize, etc.) and have received considerable attention for their health-promoting properties in many chronic disorders, including cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, etc. These properties of polyphenols and flavones have been historically ascribed to their antioxidant properties.

This reprint collected some of the latest research articles that help to highlight the most recent advances on polyphenol extracts from agricultural products and their role in these health-enhancing benefits.
