In metabolic terms, this activity of flavonoids involves the inhibition of cyclo-oxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) enzymes. Not only have specific flavonoids (for example, quercetin) been shown to provide these benefits but so also have flavonoid-containing extracts from a variety of foods, spices, and herbs.ecause many flavonoidsâand especially those belonging to two flavonoid subgroups called flavonols and flavan-3-olsâcan be effective in reducing free radical damage to cells and other components in body tissue, they provide antioxidant benefits.
