Bioavailable Microbial Metabolites of Flavanols Demonstrate Highly Individualized Bioactivity on In Vitro & beta;-Cell Functions Critical for Metabolic Health
Bioavailable Microbial Metabolites of Flavanols Demonstrate Highly Individualized Bioactivity on In Vitro & beta;-Cell Functions Critical for Metabolic Health. METABOLITES, 13(7).
author keywords: gut microbiome; phytochemicals; flavanol metabolites; glucose sensitivity; responder analysis; personalized nutrition
TL;DR:
It is concluded that metabolite bioactivity on GSIS capacity is less related to flavanol supplementation or antibiotic treatment and may be more associated with the unique microbiome or metabolome of each animal, suggesting flavanol metabolite activities are individualized and point to the need for personalized nutrition practices.

Boosting the Bioaccessibility of Dietary Bioactives by Delivery as Protein-Polyphenol Aggregate Particles
Lila, M. A., Hoskin, R. T., Grace, M. H., Xiong, J., Strauch, R., Ferruzzi, M., … Kay, C. (2022, April 8). JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD CHEMISTRY, Vol. 4.
author keywords: bioavailability; digestion; absorption; circulation; uptake; matrix
MeSH headings : Humans; Polyphenols / analysis; Fruit / chemistry; Protein Aggregates; Dietary Proteins; Biological Availability; Food Ingredients
TL;DR:
Evidence to date suggests that complexation of phy toactive polyphenolics effectively enhances their health-relevant impacts, specifically because the phytoactives are protected in the protein matrix during transit in the GIT, allowing intact, non-degraded molecules to reach the colon for catabolism at the gut microbiome level.

Anthocyanin Stability and Recovery: Implications for the Analysis of Clinical and Experimental Samples
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 57(12), 5271–5278.
author keywords: Degradation; anthocyanin; phenolic acids; flavonoid; stability
MeSH headings : Anthocyanins / chemistry; Anthocyanins / metabolism; Humans; Models, Biological
TL;DR:
Data indicate that significant portions of ingested anthocyanins are likely to degrade to phenolic acids and aldehyde in vivo, and these compounds should be the target of future bioavailability and bioactivity studies to establish the true occurrence and impact of anthcyanins on human health.

Aspects of anthocyanin absorption, metabolism and pharmacokinetics in humans
Nutrition Research Reviews, 19(1), 137–146.
author keywords: anthocyanins; flavonoids; pharmacokinetics; metabolites
TL;DR:
The present review integrates the available anthocyanin literature with that of similar flavonoids or polyphenols in order to form hypotheses regarding absorption, metabolism and clearance in humans, and suggests that Anthocyanins are absorbed and transported in human serum and urine primarily as metabolites.

Anthocyanin metabolites in human urine and serum
British Journal of Nutrition, 91(6), 933–942.

TL;DR:
It is confirmed that human subjects have the capacity to metabolise cyanidin 3-glycosides, as at least ten individual anthocyanin metabolites in the urine and serum, and these metabolic products are likely in part responsible for the reported health benefits associated with the consumption of Anthocyanins.
