Evaluation of (−)-epicatechin metabolites as recovery biomarker of dietary flavan-3-ol intake

Abstract Data from dietary intervention studies suggest that intake of (−)-epicatechin mediates beneficial vascular effects in humans. However, population-based investigations are required to evaluate associations between habitual intake and health and these studies rely on accurate estimates of int...
