Bioactive Polyphenols for Health and Pathology Treatment presents the most up-to-date research on the role of polyphenols in physiological function, organs, and disease. Presenting preclinical animal studies and clinical assays from different points of view, this book explores how herb extracts affect cardiovascular, cognitive, and immunological health and their action on obesity, cancer, digestion, blood pressure, diabetes, mood, and on the skin and eyes. This book begins with the biological properties and pathways of polyphenols, their bioavailability, phytochemistry, and, finally, their pharmacological action. This book closes exploring the processing and production of polyphenols within functional foods and as nutraceuticals.

This book is an excellent resource for professionals and academics working in the phytochemical and medical fields, including food chemists, nutritionists, and industrialists, as well as postgraduate students.
