This group of phenylpropanoids and polyketides has the chemical formula $\text{C}_{15}\text{H}_{12}\text{O}_2$ and an average molecular weight of 224.25 g/mol. Biologically, these compounds function as antioxidants (PMC4036647) and diuretics (PMC7833388). Flavonoids are found in 14 recorded sources. These include household cleaning and consumer products such as soap detergents and perfumes within detergents and soaps. They are also present in electrical and electronic equipment, specifically electrodes, fixed capacitors and their manufacture, hybrid capacitors, electrically stimulated smoking devices, and conductors or conductive bodies characterised by the conductive materials. Additionally, they are associated with food, food processing, and cookware, including the preparation of wine or sparkling wine, the preparation of vinegar, the preparation of malt, molasses and treatment of molasses, and food preservation. The health effects of flavonoids are varied. They have therapeutic effects on acne (PMC12715063), eczema (PMC12715063), inflammation (PMC12030471, PMC12250604), and cancer (PMC10058801). They are associated with a decrease in dementia (PMC13406943) and prostate cancer (PMC11223595), though they are associated with an increase in lung cancer (PMC5000748) and generally associated with cancer (PMC3365481).
