Flavonols

Flavonols are a subgroup of flavonoids that occur in varying levels in commonly consumed fruits, vegetables and plant based beverages. For example, major sources of flavonols in the diet include tomato, apple, onion, grape berries, red lettuce and broccoli. The major dietary flavonols include Quercetin, Kaempferol and Myricetin.In addition to fruits and vegetables, beverages such as tea and red wine are also a significant source of flavonols. For example, both green tea and black tea are a significant source of conjugated Quercetin, Myricetin and Kaempferol.

Flavonols provide numerous health benefits. For example, increased intake of flavonols is associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular diseases. This can be attributed to their anti-oxidant properties which helps improve endothelial function and reduce platelet activity. Furthermore, antioxidant properties of flavonols also help prevent oxidative damage to cells, lipids and DNA.The antioxidant properties of flavonols stems from the presence of aromatic rings of the flavonoid molecule, which allow the donation and acceptance of electrons from free radical species. This helps quench free radicals. In addition, intake of flavonols is associated with reduced risk of cancer and stroke. Furthermore, some flavonols also promote bone health, prevent osteoporosis, and have anti-inflammatory properties. Flavonols also promote healthy brain, as they possess neuroprotective properties. Hence, consumption of food rich in flavonols is associated with long-term health benefits.

Widespread availability and therapeutic potential of these compounds motivated us to enhance their native value by functionalizing them with safe and biocompatible molecules. These functionalized flavonols are expected to have increased solubility and bioavailability along with controlled release profiles.
