Abstract | ||||
Abstract Polyphenols are considered one of nature's greatest nutrients. Approximately forty-five percent of deaths that occur in children under the age of five are attributed to malnutrition. These mainly occur in nations with low and modest incomes. Diabetes, some malignancies, and cardiovascular disease are examples of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) associated with diet. Inadequate nutrition and poor eating habits are among the world's leading causes of chronic illness. A healthy diet should contain a range of foods high in polyphenolic substances, which are beneficial to people's overall health. Naturally occurring polyphenols are a kind of micronutrient that may be discovered in an array of foods, including fruits, vegetables, and beverages. While a low dietary intake of polyphenols may not cause a specific insufficient syndrome, consuming enough of them may have a good influence on health. Understanding the biological availability of dietary polyphenols may help find those that are beneficial to human health. It is quite accurate and covers a broad variety of diverse academic and scientific subjects. The latest study builds on previous studies on the health impacts of polyphenols. | ||||
