Intestinal metabolism revealed that hydroxycinnamates were preferentially hydrolyzed and subsequently methylated, whereas hydrolysis of flavanols could not be confirmed, being mostly conjugated to sulfate, methyl- and methyl-sulfate derivatives. It is noteworthy that methyl derivatives of procyanidin-B2 were detected inside Caco-2 cells, confirming its absorption. In addition, culture medium influenced phenol isomerization to a higher extent than cells. In conclusion, hydroxycinnamates were better absorbed than
