Flavanols,Flavonols and Flavanoids – What is the Difference of this three?

flavonols

Nowadays, there’s so much health and nutrition lingo floating out there that it can leave your head spinning. Take flavonols, flavanols, and flavonoids, for example. One is spelled with an “a”, one with an “o”, and one with an “o” and ends “with an “oids”. What is the difference between the three, and why does it matter? Simply put, both flavonols and flavanols are subclasses of flavonoids, which  are essential nutritional compounds commonly found in colorful fruits and vegetables.

Flavonols have just made giant strides as a component associated with decreasing the risk for Alzheimer’s Disease, which is a topic gaining more spotlight in societies with increasing geriatric populations (such as China, Japan, and the United States). Flavonols additionally perform the very important work of herding the harmful free-radical compounds out of your body via the liver, but they also exhibit anti-inflammatory and antibacterial activity in the body. All this further suggests that making healthy lifestyle choices is the ultimate way to maintain health.

The most common flavonols found in foods include quercetin, kaempferol, isorhamnetin, and myricetin. All of these flavonoids have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The amount of flavonols present in a dish is intimately correlated with the preparation of that dish. The more processed, the fewer flavonols are preserved; for example, eating gummy bears made with real blueberries pales in comparison to blueberry juice, which in turns pales in comparison to fresh blueberries.

We may only need simple sugars and carbohydrates to be satiated, but we absolutely need flavonoids to stay healthy, because all repair, regeneration, and detox processes in the body require flavonols. We recommend eating fruits and vegetables from the entirety of the color spectrum to best supply your body with the flavonols it needs to keep you feeling your best.

We understand that it can be difficult to track all of the essential nutrients recommended for a healthy diet in this day and age, which is why we recommend PhytoMulti by Metagenics. This tablet contains a proprietary blend of phytonutrients (including several important flavonoids), vitamins, and minerals. Thanks to its excellent coverage, you can be sure you are supporting a healthy diet and not missing out on any important nutritional compounds.
