Lignins, a wood industry byproduct, are apparently effective against viruses & bacteria, scientists in Finland have found. The polyphenol has potential as a promising green alternative to synthetic antimicrobials. Tests show lignins are active against #SARSCoV2 as well as Staph aureus & E. coli👇

Berries like strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries are polyphenol powerhouses, packed with fiber, vitamin C, and anthocyanins that support brain function, heart health, and blood sugar balance.
Tip: Frozen berries are just as nutritious as fresh, can be cheaper and will keep for longer.

Gonna make a large batch of curry later but didn't want to actually make it now, been prepping ingredients over the past day or two
Pork with aromatics (ginger, onion, garlic), lots of chopped onions, and now cubed potatoes (I'm parboiling them to inactivate polyphenol oxidase so they don't darken)

I was writing something and confused the word lignan, a polyphenol precursor to phytoestrogens, for example in beans that I always have on my mind, when I meant lignin, the rigid cell structure of wood
if that had made it out into the world I would have been dragged on the tree forums so hard

When tissues of the apple are exposed to oxygen, an enzyme called POLYPHENOL OXIDASE (PPO) activates & begins converting phenolic compounds to quinones.
These polymerize, like beads on a string, into ALLOMELANIN.
Allomelanin acts like a blood clot, creating a barrier that blocks further damage.
