Function:
Apple Polyphenols are phytochemicals concentrated in the skin of unripe
apples. Quercetin, procyanidins, catechins, phloridzin, phlorizin,
epicatechin, rutin, and chlorogenic acid are all apple polyphenols. These
chemical compounds are being studied extensively in labs around the
world for their health effects in major diseases. Polyphenols extracted from apples are also showing promise in treating , improving , and preventing
reactions. Apple polyphenol extracts have been shown to be 2 to 6 times
more powerful then Vitamin C as antioxidants. Apple polyphenols are naturally occurring plant compounds that act as potent antioxidants. They protect cells against , reactive atoms that contribute to tissue damage in the body. Recently, apple polyphenol extracts have been announced to dramatically
decrease and increase muscle strength in laboratory animals. This
exciting but preliminary report has fueled a strong interest in these natural botanical compounds.
