Citrus Bioflavonoids

The Vascular & Antioxidant Protector

A natural complex of flavonoids extracted from citrus fruits, clinically studied for their role in cardiovascular health, antioxidant defence, and immune support.

What are Citrus Bioflavonoids Good For?

Citrus bioflavonoids are a group of plant compounds found in citrus peels and pulp, including hesperidin, naringin, diosmin, and rutin. These bioactives work have immense scientific evidence to improve circulation, lipid markers and neutralise free radicals.

 

Citrus Bioflavonoid supplementation may lead to:

  • Improvements in cardiovascular health by widening blood vessels in response to increased blood flow
  • Reducing oxidative stress and inflammation (according to mouse model studies)
  • Reduction in blood glucose levels and blood pressure in diabetic patients
  • Beneficial improvements in glucose metabolism, inflammation markers in diabetics who are on metformin treatment
  • Improvements in lipid profiles by reducing low density-lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and triglycerides
  • Increase in immune defence during viral infection
  • Skin UVB protection by reducing inflammation and downregulate gene expressions for pigmentation (as demonstrated in laboratory studies)

What are Bioflavonoids?

Bioflavonoids are polyphenolic compounds widely distributed in fruits and vegetables. Citrus-derived flavonoids are particularly well studied for their effects on cardiovascular health and capillary resistance, as well as their ability to enhance the absorption of vitamin C.

What is the Recommended Daily Dose of Citrus Bioflavonoids?

Human studies commonly use 500 mg per day, either alone or in combination with vitamin C, to improve cardiovascular health, antioxidant capacity, and immune defense.

They are natural plant compounds from citrus fruits that support vascular integrity, antioxidant defence, and immune health.
They help protect blood vessels, reduce oxidative stress, enhance vitamin C absorption, and support cardiovascular, and immune health.
Unlike isolated antioxidants, citrus bioflavonoids work in synergy with vitamin C and provide a broad spectrum of plant-based protective compounds.
They are generally well tolerated. At high doses, some individuals may experience mild digestive discomfort.
Yes, citrus bioflavanoids may enhance each vitamin C absorption.
