Polyphenols (noun, pronunciation of the singular /pÉli'finÉl/ or /pÉli'fÉnÉl/, also known as polyhydroxyphenols) are a structural class of mainly natural, but also synthetic or semisynthetic, organic chemicals characterized by the presence of large multiples of phenol structural units.he term polyphenol should be used to define compounds exclusively derived from the shikimate / phenylpropanoid and/or the polyketide pathway, featuring more than one phenolic unit and deprived of nitrogen-based functions.
Polyphenols are powerful gene-activating agents that are found in low concentrations in colorful fruits and vegetables. Purified extracts are the best way to obtain adequate levels of polyphenols on a daily basis. Consumption of adequate levels helps support digestive health, reduction of inflammation, slowing of aging, cognitive function, athletic performance, healthy blood sugar, and reduction of oxidative stress.
