“…Antidiabetic properties have also been described, being attributed mainly to the antioxidant action of anthocyanins, and improvement of cardiovascular health has been related to their consumption . In particular, for strawberry fruits, anti‐inflammatory effects have been reported to be associated with the presence of pelargonidin‐3‐glucoside and cyanidin‐3‐glucoside …”

“…A summary of previous history with references to the pioneers in this field of work has been given [5,14]. Apart from their physiological role in plants, anthocyanins are regarded as important components in human nutrition [5,[14][15][16]. It has been stated that the consumption of the anthocyanins is of the order of 200 mg/day, a high amount if compares with the intake of other dietary flavonoids [5].…”

Anthocyanins are a family of natural pigments classified into the group of flavonoids, considered to be responsible for the color and taste of many fruits and vegetables, i.e. berries. Anthocyanins are common components of the human diet. Besides their interest as colorant because of their coloring properties, the study of anthocyanin compounds stems from their wide applicability in the prevention and even in the treatment of various human diseases. However, various aspects of the pharmacological roles of anthocyanins remain in the dark, having still several obstacles to the development of robust diets or prescribing lines on consumption of anthocyanins. The chemical structure of anthocyanins determines in large measure its capacity and efficacy as an antioxidant agent. In this study, the following aspects are reviewed: the antioxidant effect of anthocyanin pigments; the oxidative stress, the bioavailability after intake and biological aspects of anthocyanins, the method for measuring the antioxidant activity of anthocyanins, the relationship between structure and activity; and the influence of the anthocyanins in the antioxidant activity of wines. Finally an overview of some potential uses in food industry is attempted mainly focusing in the anthocyanin encapsulation topic. Attention has been paid to the more recent publications in the field.

“…The phenolics, found in fruits and berries show a wide range of antioxidant activities [35] and are thought to exert protective effects against major diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Other researches [36] praise anthocyanins, found in berries and fruits, and its positive health effects. There are abundant of scientific literature [37], [38], [39] on positive effects of vitamins and minerals found in fruits and berries.…”
