Hesperidin-Important Bioactive From Plants!

Hesperidin-Important Bioactive From Plants!

Hesperidin  is a flavonoid that is commonly found in citrus fruits, particularly in  the peels and membranes of oranges and lemons.

Among its possible health benefits:

·     Antioxidant Properties

·     Anti-Inflammatory Effects

·     Cardioprotective

·     Blood Vessel Health

·     Immune System Support

·     Neuroprotective Effects

·     Anti-Cancer Potential

·     Antiviral Activity

·     Anti-Allergic Effects

·     Skin Health

The  main area of interest for Hesperidin seems to be for its use in  inflammation or conditions where inflammation is playing a key role,  especially due to its combination of anti-inflammatory and antioxidant  activities.

Hesperidin’s  anti-inflammatory activity has been observed in a number of models and  physiological processes and it shows promise for benefitting  cardiovascular health, neurological health, psychiatric mechanisms,  lipid-lowering and insulin-sensitizing, among other uses.

Research  has indicated that Hesperidin enhances activities of other antioxidants  and enzymes, and has been combined with other nutrients in clinical  research. For example, combined with calcium it may help preserve bone  health in postmenopausal women.
