Associated with various health benefits, (poly)phenols and their microbially mediated phenolic catabolites represent a potential means to reduce DNA damage. Four colonic-microbiota-derived phenolic catabolites were investigated for their ability to reduce H2O2-induced oxidative DNA damage and modulate the Nrf2-Antixoidant Response Element (ARE) pathway, in normal (CCD 841 CoN) and adenocarcinoma (HT29) colonocyte cell lines. Each catabolite demonstrated significant (p < .001) genoprotective activity and modulation of key genes in the Nrf2-ARE pathway.

Therefore, this pilot study aimed to explore whether rhamnose could help maintain BMD via bone resorption suppression in postmenopausal women. The participants consumed either 1.0 or 0.5 g/day of rhamnose or placebo for 24 weeks, and BMD (lumbar spine and femur) and bone turnover markers were measured. After 24 weeks, the group consuming rhamnose 1.0 g/day exhibited a significantly higher BMD of the lumbar spine than the placebo group. Furthermore, the levels of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b, a bone resorption marker, were significantly lower in both rhamnose groups.
