This work examines the redox paradox of polyphenols and their impact on bioavailability and safety.
Review of existing literature on polyphenols and their physiological effects.
Analysis of bioavailability and safety data regarding polyphenol consumption.
Discussion of the hormesis phenomenon in relation to polyphenols.
Polyphenols exhibit both beneficial and harmful effects depending on their concentration and bioavailability.
Hormetic effects suggest that low doses may provide health benefits while high doses pose safety risks.
