The Benefits of Antioxidants: Polyphenols and Flavonoids

Polyphenols and flavonoids are part of the next nutrition revolution. You heard it here first.

Polyphenols are phytochemicals that make up bold plant pigmentation to protect plants against UV radiation and viruses. Simply put, they're the reason fruits and vegetables can be so colorful. Plants make these chemicals to keep themselves safe -- safe from the sun, from deteriorating viruses, and from the things that would otherwise kill them. Flavonoids are a class of polyphenol that don't just help plants - they help humans too. They're an incredibly effective and important parts of a plant's makeup.

But the human body cannot make flavonoids.

Not on our own, at least. When we eat these fruits and vegetables, we consume the polyphenols and flavonoids which give some of those same benefits to our bodies. Unfortunately, we should be consuming 400-500mg of flavonoids per day, and the average American only gets 50mg. You can see how this is a problem.

Current clinical studies show an impressive correlation between high dietary polyphenol intake and reduced risk for overall mortality, heart disease, inflammation, oxidative stress, diabetes, and high blood pressure. A 12-year study of 807 elderly men and women in Italy showed that those in the upper tertile for total urinary phenolic concentration (which is a proxy measure of fruit and vegetable polyphenol intake) experienced a 30% reduction in all-cause mortality. Essentially, people getting the proper amount of polyphenols in their diet live longer. That's why our board of doctors specially formulated our pods to be packed with flavonoids like green tea extract and isoquercetin.

Our Vitapod beverages provide anywhere between 50mg to 370mg of flavonoids in each drink, helping you reach that daily nutritional value. Alongside foods like fruits and vegetables that are naturally high in flavonoids, like berries, onions, and leafy greens, Vitapod will help you reach the polyphenol levels you need to experience the reported health benefits.

The health benefits of high flavonoid intake:

Anti-inflammatory.

Aid in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases.

Suffer less from the common cold and chronic diseases.

Maintain a better ideal weight.

Lower risk of dementia.

Combats oxidative stress and inflammation.

Helps athletes recover better from hard workouts.

Improved gut microbiome and immune system.

The Importance of Hydration

We don't have to tell you that hydration is important. It's something that has been ingrained into our minds since youth. Despite this, 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. Dehydration can impact your mood, alertness, brain function, ability to concentrate and exercise vigorously. Other symptoms include headaches, dizziness, cramps, and fatigue - so maybe drinking water is good? Who knew.

Hydration 101

Water is often seen as a method of quenching your thirst - but there are many other crucial reasons to drink enough water. Proper hydration helps regulate body temperature, keep joints lubricated, prevent infections, deliver nutrients to cells, improve sleep, and keep organs functioning properly.

How Can You Tell If You're Dehydrated? 

Your urine is darker than usual. 

You wake up feeling thirsty.

Your bodyweight dips 2 or 3 lbs. within a day. 

Dehydration is a simple result of our bodies not replenishing the water we lost. You might reach for water, then a sports drink, or a cup of coffee and find you are still dehydrated. Our drinks contain the optimum amount of sodium for hydration with no added sugar. Vitapod was created with the idea to give your body all of the things it needs and not what you don't - low sodium, zero sugar, and no artificial flavors or sweeteners. If you are looking for a boost of hydration, Vitapod might be the solution to your hydration woes.
