- [1.1] [#Catechins]
- Epicatechin, catechin and the #Proanthocyanidins are the main flavan-3-ols metabolized by the gut microbiota that also elicit beneficial anti-inflammatory effects. - [#Grape seed] - #Catechins and epicatechins are major constituents of #Grape seed extracts and the production of their bioactive metabolites is dependent on the presence of the microbiota
- - #Eggerthella lenta JCM 9979 was shown to facilitate the C-ring cleavage of epicatechins and #Catechins and the subsequent 4’-dehydroxylation to produce different intermediate metabolites.
