FUNCTIONS Flavonoids are a class of phytochemicals that are responsible for many of the brilliant colors of fruits and vegetables. They are perhaps the most beneficial phytochemicals found in food. Flavonoids are extremely potent antioxidants, scavenging many potentially damaging free radicals. Some flavonoids appear to be much more potent antioxidants than even beta-carotene, vitamin C or vitamin E. Many flavonoids are also capable of binding to metal ions, which prevents these metals from acting as catalysts that enhance free radical production in the body. Many flavonoids support the health of the body’s circulatory system by helping maintain proper vascular permeability, integrity, and resiliency. Flavonoids also have a wide array of other biochemical functions. For example, flavonoids are involved in immune function, gene expression, capillary and cerebral blood flow, platelet aggregation, liver function, enzyme activity, and collagen, phospholipid, cholesterol, and histamine metabolism.
INDICATIONS FlavonAll may be taken as a dietary supplement for individuals who wish to increase their intake of a broad spectrum of nutritionally important flavonoids.
