Abstract: Polyphenols have various potentially beneficial effects on human health. However, the positive bioactivities depend on the bioavailability and bioaccessibility of polyphenols since many polyphenols are rapidly metabolized upon oral administration. Starch can interact with polyphenols… read more here.
