TL;DR: Flavonoid-rich dark chocolate improves endothelium-dependent flow-mediated dilation of the brachial artery and is associated with an increase in plasma epicatechin concentrations in healthy adults.

TL;DR: 3-O-methyldopa (3OMD) concentration appears to be a reliable marker of L-dopa therapy, and may be a further indication of a defect in NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I) in mitochondria in Parkinson's disease (PD).

TL;DR: Almond skin flavonoids possess antioxidant capacity in vitro; they are bioavailable and act in synergy with vitamins C and E to protect LDL against oxidation in hamsters.

TL;DR: Total phenols, flavonoids, and phenolic acids in California almond skins and kernels among the principal almond varieties are determined with high-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry under identical HPLC conditions to lead to a better understanding of the mechanisms of action underlying the relationship between almond consumption and health-related outcomes.

TL;DR: Both uric acid and glutathionine were significantly reduced in several regions of HD cerebral cortex, which could signify abnormal energy metabolism in HD, and kynurenic acid is an antagonist of excitatory amino acid receptors, a deficiency could contribute to the pathogenesis of neuronal degeneration in HD.
