Abstract

Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-carcinogenic effects have been associated with flavonoids, a class of phenolic chemicals present in several plants. Brain, stomach, and blood cancers are just a few of the many types of malignancies that these substances have the potential to prevent or treat, according to research. Flavonoids have several effects on cancer, including slowing tumour development, promoting apoptosis, and preventing metastasis. Furthermore, their antioxidant capabilities can shield cells from free radical damage and lower cancer risk. To completely understand the effects of flavonoids and to define the exact quantities and methods of their administration for optimal efficacy, further study and more extensive clinical trials are needed, notwithstanding the early promising results. Nonetheless, a nutritious diet that includes foods high in flavonoids can aid in improving general health and lowering the risk of chronic illnesses

Abstract

Flavonoids are the effective ingredients of the compounds found in grains, vegetables, fruits, seeds and some drinks that have medicinal, free radical reducing and anti-cancer functions. In plants, flavonoids play an important role in multiple functions including color formation, growth, and protection against damage and microorganisms. Articles have stated that the molecular functions of flavonoids may improve health and reduce disease symptoms, reduce antibiotic resistance and reduce inflammation in humans. One of the features of such research is the potential effect of flavonoids on cancer risk.Chemically, flavonoids have an overall 15-carbon skeletal structure consisting of two phenyl rings and one heterocyclic ring. This carbon structure can be abbreviated as C6-C3-C6.
