Abstract

This paper reviews the occurrence in foods of flavanones, chalcones and dihydrochalcones. The major dietary sources of flavanones and dihydrochalcones are citrus fruits and apples respectively. These compounds may make a greater contribution to the total daily intake of flavonoids than the more extensively studied flavonols. There are no data for plasma or tissue levels, but both endogenous and gut flora metabolites of both classes of compound are found in urine. For these reasons, these compounds deserve greater attention in epidemiological studies.
