Herein, we analyzed recent data on the synthetic pathways, features, and similarity of the properties of quercetin, as the most famous flavonoid, and curcumin, a representative of curcuminoids that despite their anti-oxidant activity, also have a pro-oxidant effect, depending on the concentration and the cellular environment. However, the potential effects and mechanisms of action of individual polyphenols remain largely unknown. Polyphenols are considered popular ingredients in the pharmaceutical and medical fields due to their preventive and therapeutic properties.
