The article linked here offers an outstanding (if somewhat technical) overview of what flavonoids are and why the food industry is so interested in using them to market food products.
What's hilarious about all this is that researchers continue to think the health benefits of whole foods are due entirely to the activity of certain identifiable phytonutrients. They have no concept that it may be the vibrational nature of the plant itself that imparts a significant portion of the documented health effects. It's not just some isolated chemical that makes plants healthy: it's the whole plant. The character of the plant. Or, as I sometimes say, the homeopathy of the plant. And you can't see that under a microscope.
