Kaempferol

Flavonol

Kaempferol is a dietary flavonol usually consumed as glycosides. Aglycone, glucosides, glucuronides, and food matrices cannot share one exposure model.

Pharmacokinetic model

A route-level PK model for kaempferol is being prepared from published data. Dosing references, studies, and documented interactions are below; the app catalog is updated as models are validated.

  1. Absorption of kaempferol from endive, a source of kaempferol-3-glucuronide, in humans DuPont MS, Day AJ, Bennett RN, Mellon FA, Kroon PA · European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2004 DOI

    Eight adults consumed endive providing 9 mg kaempferol. Plasma peaked around 5.8 hours and kaempferol-3-glucuronide predominated; these food-matrix data do not establish isolated aglycone supplement PK.
