Polyphenols are dietary constituents of plants associated with health-promoting effects. In the human diet, polyphenols are generally consumed in foods along with macronutrients. Because the health benefits of polyphenols are critically determined by their bioavailability, the effect of interactions between plant phenols and food macronutrients is a very important topic. The protein-polyphenol complexes can significantly change the plasma kinetics profile. (8) Protein-polyphenol binding is mediated by a combination of hydrogen and hydrophobic bonding depending on chemical (polarity) and structural (size/shape) properties of interacting molecules. Covalent interactions between purified glycinin, a soybean storage protein, and selected flavonoids and phenolic acids have also been reported. Recently it is reported that protein-rich defatted soybean flour protects anthocyanins during transit through upper digestive tract for subsequent colonic delivery/metabolism (9).
