Two of these were not quite clear to me: flavanol and genistein.

With flavanol you think of the color in fruits and vegetables but not a particular supplement. Is there such a thing as a flavanol supplement?

I’ve never heard of genistein. What is it?

It’s one of the sterol compounds in soy (from memory).

Flavanols are in tea, blueberries, grapes, etc. They are a commonly talked about antioxidant.
