6. Polyphenols Hell Detoxify The Liver In the late 1900s, scientists looked at diets rich in fruits and vegetables. They found they protected people from cancers, heart disease, diabetes and more. Today, they know those health benefits come from polyphenols. Polyphenols are naturally occurring compounds that come only from fruit and other plants. But when your dog eats fruits, he can’t actually digest polyphenols directly. The polyphenols travel to his colon, where bacteria eat them. The bacteria then produce healthy by-products like short-chain fatty acids. Polyphenols are in some spices, herbs, nuts, vegetables but are especially high in fruits. Apples, pears and berries contain about 200 to 300 mg of polyphenols per 100 grams of fresh fruit.
