Guaraná (Paullinia cupana) catechins and procyanidins: Gastrointestinal/colonic bioaccessibility, Caco-2 cell permeability and the impact of macronutrients

Guaraná (Paullinia cupana) seeds are rich in flavan-3-ols (catechins) and reduce oxidative stress in humans. We determined the concentration and in vitro bioaccessibility of catechins in guaraná seeds from two geographical origins, and measured their Caco-2 permeability. The effect of macronutrients...
