Anthocyanins are a kind of glycoside derivatives with C6-C3-C6 as the skeleton widely existing in various fruits and vegetables. In addition to giving food its bright color, anthocyanins have a variety of biological health effects on the human body. In this paper, the structure, distribution, and content of anthocyanins and the research progress of anthocyanins and their metabolites on intestinal microbiological regulation in recent years were reviewed in order to provide a theoretical basis for further development of nutritive and healthy food rich in anthocyanins.
