“…On the other hand, fruit was an important polyphenol contributor although the consumption was similar as for vegetables (Table 2). This is in line with the Australian population where apple was the important flavonoid source for young people [14], and the contribution of fruit to flavonoid intake was higher than vegetables' contribution [36].…”

Estimated dietary intake of polyphenols in European adolescents: the HELENA study

The current study provided for the first time numbers on the total polyphenol intake and their main food sources in a heterogeneous group of European adolescents. Major differences with adult populations are the lower polyphenol consumption and the major food sources, such as chocolate and biscuits. The discussed determinants and polyphenol types already point to some important population groups that need to be targeted in future public health initiatives.

“…One research in Chinese adults also reported that apple was the main food sources of flavonols and flavones [ 23 ]. The present results is in line with the Australian population where apple was the important flavonoid source for young people [ 28 ], and the contribution of fruit to flavonoid intake was higher than that for vegetables [ 29 ].…”

Background Polyphenol intake assessment is a first step for evaluating relationships between polyphenols and health-related outcomes. Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region is one of the minority areas in China, which is primarily consists of arid, dry desert. Objectives This study was to make assessment about phenolics intake by university students from Ningxia of China. Methods This study employed data from a cross-sectional survey conducted from February to June 2018 in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region of Northwest China. A total of 413 undergraduate students (143 boys, 270 girls), mean age 20.6 years, participated in the study. Food-frequency consumption and anthropometric measurements were included in the survey. According to phenol-explorer website, the amount of different classes of phenolic compounds were established. Statistics analyses were conducted with IBM SPSS 20.0. Results Profile of the student subjects showed low weight (19.1%), overweight (6.8%) and obesity (0.5%). The mean value about phenolics intake was 1378 mg/day. The main polyphenols consumed were flavonoids (58.7% of total polyphenols), followed by phenolic acids (38.1%). Vegetables, fruits and cereals products were the most consumed foods, while infusions and sugar products were lower. Fruit was the main food sources of total polyphenols, especially apple (22.95%), orange juice (19.03%) and apple juice (3.93%). Conclusions This is the first study on the polyphenol intake of university students in Ningxia of China. The present results will be benefit for further investigation on the role of polyphenol intake against disease occurrence for this adults group.

“…Mean total flavonoid intake for adolescents (12•5-17•5 years) in the Healthy Lifestyle in Europe by Nutrition in Adolescence (HELENA) study was estimated at 120 mg/4184 kJ per d using two non-consecutive 24-h recalls (10) . Since dietary habits develop during childhood and adolescence, they are considered very important for shaping lifelong dietary habits and the prevention of chronic diseases later in life (11,12) . However, the few studies that described flavonoid intake in children and adolescents are limited to cross-sectional analysis (7,8) , a certain age group (9) , girls (9) , or in the case of isoflavones to Asian populations (13) .…”

Flavonoids are suggested to reduce disease risk. Since dietary habits are acquired during early life, describing age and time trends of flavonoid intake and major food sources are important for monitoring and disease prevention in later life. We aimed to describe total flavonoid intake and food sources, and investigate age and time trends of flavonoid intake in 3 to 18 year-olds, from the DONALD Study from 1985 to 2016. Intake was assessed annually using 3-day weighed food records (WFR). Flavonoid values were assigned using the USDA database. Foods contributing to intake were determined. Age and time trends in total flavonoid and isoflavone density were analysed by sex with PROC MIXED. In total 1312 children completed 10758 WFR. Across all ages, daily mean total flavonoid density was lower in boys compared to girls (134 vs 146 mg/1000 kcal) and no difference in median isoflavone density (0.04 mg/1000 kcal/d) was found. Top 5 foods contributing to total flavonoid intake were apple with peel (15.0/17.1%), strawberries (5.9/6.1%), chocolate spread (3.9/3.5%), orange juice (3.5/3.4%), and pasta (3.5/3.4%) for boys and girls, respectively. Overall, in boys total flavonoid density decreased over the course of age and time. In girls there was no association with age or time. In both sexes, isoflavone density followed a U-shaped age trend with no change over time. From a public health perspective, the overall observed downward trend of flavonoid intake in boys deserves attention. Future initiatives should be tailored at maintaining a high flavonoid density as children age, specifically among boys.
