Question 6: What are flavonoids?
A) They shrink hemorrhoids.
B) They're on your tongue.
C) They're near your adenoids.
D) They're in foods that contain antioxidants.
The correct answer is D.
Flavonoids
are found in food—in things like teas and dark-colored berries. They're similar
to vitamins and are important in maintaining health—studies have suggested an
association between diets high in flavonoids and a reduced risk of cancer and
heart disease. "They're what gives a lot of foods we have color," Dr. Oz says.
"They're particularly effective at helping the body get rid of toxins that
affect us."
