Abstract
Polyphenols constitute one of the most numerous and ubiquitous groups of fungal metabolites and are an integral part of the human diet. These molecules can be met as simple phenolic compounds or highly polymerized compounds. Recent interest in phenolic compounds has increased, owing to their antioxidant capacity. Besides, these compounds can have possible beneficial implications in human health, such as in the treatment and prevention of cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and other pathologies. Since there is little research done in Armenia, the data is scattered. This review aims to combine domestic and abroad papers on this matter.
