Purpose
Prove the hypothesis that dietary supplementation with bioflavonoids will diminish the recurrence rate of colonic neoplasia, we will implement a clinical trial comparing bioflavonoids and placebo in a double blind randomized clinical trial. To use a standardised supplementation of bioflavonoids, a commercially available preparation (Flavo-Natin®) will be used.

Experimental: I
Flavonoid treatment

Dietary Supplement: Flavonoids
Nutritional Supplement: flavonoid mixture with 20 mg apigenin and 20 mg epigallocathechin gallate as tablets per day
|
Detailed Description:
The preparation contains a mixture of 200mg chamomile and tea (green tea) extract which contains naturally occurring bioflavonoids (2%) together with vitamins and folic acid. This flavonoids mixture will be applied for 3 years and the compliance and effects of this treatment will be determined by measuring the serum concentrations of apigenin and EGCG of the patients.
