Polyphenol

And the reason we're going to do this is because, as most people have seen, apparently you're not meant to blend bananas and blueberries together because apparently it diminishes or ruins any advantage you would get from consuming bananas.

those blueberries in terms of things like polyphenol content.

And this was a wonderful example posted by Dr. Patrick Ronda of probably what none of us should do as practitioners is create a level of hysteria or nuance around a single study and a single outcome which actually didn't even exist um in terms of the reference to bananas and blueberries together because of the impact and negative impact it can have on the community in terms of around nutrition so i thought it'd be a good one we're not going to go too over the top in terms of the actual study um But we will talk about that study and talk about its importance, I guess, in terms of the bigger picture.

And we're also going to talk about a few other studies just to sort of highlight and some other concepts to highlight, I guess, do we call it orthorexia or the potential for orthorexia as a result of being too focused on healthy eating?

And I think that was a really good example of that happening.

And we can kind of talk about the study itself and then what the what the online message was around it.

Yeah, so why don't we get into that? So the actual study was what? Impact of polyphenol oxidase or PPO on the bioavailability of flavan-3-ols or flavanols from fruit smoothies.

What's your take on this study? And again, let's go big picture on this study.
