Physiological Effects of New Polyphenol-enriched Foods in Healthy Humans

ClinicalTrials.gov · COMPLETED, 2011

10 participants

Abstract

Polyphenolic compounds exert several health benefits depending on bioavailability. Encapsulation may improve bioavailability of these compounds.This study will evaluate bioavailability of some polyphenols (curcumin and cocoa polyphenols) from new enriched-foods. In particular bread and nut based creams will be used as food matrices to include free or encapsulated polyphenols.

Conditions: Healthy.

Primary outcome: Serum Polyphenol Concentrations Over 24h From Food Consumption; Urinary Excretion of Total Polyphenols; Amount of Total Fecal Polyphenols.

Enrollment: 10 participants.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 10 participants or records.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
