Bioavailability and Nutritional Analysis of Flavonoids
Flavonoids are plant-specific dietary components with their promising health-promoting effects in human cell which has been well proven with plethora of experimental and human clinical studies. They own a variety of biological activities and properties as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancerous, anti-allergic and many more which can modulate cell signaling and gene expression-related disease development. Poor bioavailability of flavonoids is a great concern as it can put a check or even can hinder their health effects. Therefore, efforts to improve their bioavailability with the aim of improving the efficacy of flavonoids are subject of current research in this area. This chapter highlights the overall picture of flavonoids, including their beneficial roles, contributing toward improving the human health
