Polyphenols: the natural chemicals that could give you a small waist, healthy heart and low blood pressure

PolyphenolsThere’s a new buzzword in town when it comes to health: polyphenols. While scientists have been investigating the plant compounds for years, the term has now caught the public imagination – and for good reason.

A growing body of evidence shows that eating a diet high in these clever natural chemicals offers numerous health benefits, improving everything from heart and metabolic health to lowering the risk of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s.

There is also research that suggests eating more polyphenols can slow down the signs of skin ageing and reduce waist size.

Polyphenols are a group of phytonutrients (though the terms are often and erroneously used interchangeably), naturally occurring chemicals in plants that help to protect them in nature from threats such as insects and UV light, and, as it turns out, also help to protect us when we eat them.
