ABSTRACT / САЖЕТАК:

The results of conducted scientific studies indicate the pharmacological and biochemical potential of plant polyphenols and their importance for human health. Thanks to their pronounced pharmacological and biochemical activity, plant polyphenols enable the prevention of chronic pathological conditions such as cancer, cardiovascular, neurodegenerative and other diseases.

KEYWORDS / КЉУЧНЕ РЕЧИ:

plant polyphenols, distribution in plants, pharmacological and biochemical activity

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT / ПРОЈЕКАТ:

Research was supported by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development of the Republic of Serbia (Grant numbers: 451-03- 66/2024-03/200032; 451-03-65/2024-03/200116) and Bilateral Project Serbia and Croatia (2024-2025): Alternative and fodder plants as a source of protein andfunctional food; and Bulgarian Project (2024-2027): “Intercropping when growingmaize for sustainable agriculture.”
