A member asked:
Hi can flavonoids and polyphenols stunt bone growth in males ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: You may have read that flavonoids can act as a weak estrogen in the body and estrogens can shorten the period of bone growth in teenage boys but there is NO evidence that flavonoids and polyphenols have this effect on bones and you are 22 so you are already fully grown
