Polyphenols

How many polyphenols to eat per day?

Studies show that people who eat a diet rich in polyphenols — who consume more than 650 milligrams per day — have a lower risk of death than those who consume less than 500 milligrams per day.

There is currently no recommended daily dose. Several sources recommend 500 to 1000mg of polyphenols per day.

--

Olive oil, 60mg polyphenols per 100g
Brussels sprouts, 257mg polyphenols per 100g
Black Elderberry, 1300mg polyphenols per 100g
Olive leaf, 10 800mg polyphenols per 100g

Recommended but not a must: take an organic olive leaf extract, which is high in polyphenols, along with food. Preferably do not take olive leaf extract on an empty stomach.
