Targeted delivery of dietary flavanols for optimal human cell function: Effect on cardiovascular health (FLAVIOLA)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Feb 28, 2013,

Nutrition, i.e. our daily diet, is a major life style factor, greatly impacting on human health and disease. Epidemiological evidence suggests that diets rich in plant-based foods and beverages decrease the risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Various phytochemical constituents, in particular a class of compounds called flavanols, have been avidly investigated in recent years. Current ...
