Plant Polyphenol Poster

A poster-shaped Nutrition Education graphic of my production is available for download for a free educational resource for home or office. Have the file printed in 3 x4 ratio, Small - 12 x 16; Medium - 18 x 24 *this is the size of a kitchen cupboard door; or Large - 21 x 24. The margins of the poster are slightly wider than in the view seen below.

• Plant Polyphenols - Eat Plants! (sync)

​

The Take home point is in the last paragraph - there is a new dietary recommendation for daily intake of the type of polyphenols found in tea, berries and pomegranate: 

​

Flavanols: Catechin, Epicatechin, Gallocatechin, EGCG, Proanthocyanidins; 400/600 mg per day intake of this type of flavonoid is the new dietary recommendation by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (Crowe-White, et al, 2022).

• Green or black tea leaves, Yerba Mate, pomegranate peel or leaves, sumac powder, goji and other berries, quince and persimmon fruit & leaves are sources of flavanols.

• 3 cups of green tea provide about 200 mg EGCG. Red wine & eat grape seeds too!

• Dark chocolate, flaxseeds.
