Citrus aurantium extract is a mixture of active ingredients extracted from the dried young fruits of sour orange (Citrus aurantium L.) and its cultivated varieties or sweet orange (Citrus sinensis Osbeck) of the Rutaceae family, which is widely used in the fields of pharmaceuticals, food, nutraceuticals and cosmetics. The following is a detailed introduction from the composition, efficacy, application and safety:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Main components<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Citrus aurantium extract is rich in a variety of bioactive components, mainly including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Flavonoids: such as Hesperidin, Neohesperidin, Naringin and Nobiletin. These components have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and hypolipidemic effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alkaloids: such as Synephrine (Synephrine), N-Methyltyramine (N-Methyltyramine) and so on. Synephrine is the main active ingredient of Citrus aurantium extract, which has the effect of promoting lipolysis and increasing metabolism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volatile oils: such as limonene (Limonene), linalool (Linalool), etc., which give Hovenia cepa a unique aroma, and has a certain antibacterial, anti-inflammatory effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Organic acids: such as Citric acid, Aurantiamaric acid and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other components: vitamins A, B, C, P, riboflavin, pectin, etc..<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Main effects<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Promote lipolysis and weight loss:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Synephrine is the main component of Hovenia extract that promotes lipolysis, and its mechanism of action is similar to that of ephedrine, but with fewer side effects. Studies have shown that Synephrine can increase cellular thermogenesis and metabolism, accelerating fat consumption while increasing muscle production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Citrus aurantium extract is often used in weight loss products as a natural fat burner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Regulation of cardiovascular function:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Citrus aurantium extract is cardiotonic, vasoconstrictive, and increases peripheral resistance, which can enhance myocardial contractility and pumping function, and increase blood pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Clinically, Citrus aurantium extract can be used to treat symptoms such as low blood pressure, deficiency and shock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Improve the function of digestive system:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Citrus aurantium extract can promote gastric juice secretion, enhance gastrointestinal peristalsis, relieve indigestion, bloating, constipation and other symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Chinese medicine, Citrus aurantium is often used to treat symptoms such as stagnation and internal stagnation, plumpness and distension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Citrus aurantium extract has an inhibitory effect on a variety of bacteria and viruses, and can inhibit bacterial growth and viral infections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Its flavonoid components have anti-inflammatory effects and can reduce inflammatory reactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other effects:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pectin in Citrus aurantium extract is a kind of water-soluble dietary fiber, which has the function of enhancing gastrointestinal peristalsis and promoting nutrient absorption, and is effective in the prevention and treatment of diarrhea, intestinal cancer, diabetes, obesity and other conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pectin is also able to adsorb heavy metal ions, with good heavy metal adsorption function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. The application field<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pharmaceutical field:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Citrus aurantium extract is commonly used in the treatment of dyspepsia, constipation, low blood pressure, shock and other symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Its cardiotonic and vasoconstrictive effects make it potentially useful in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Food & Nutraceutical Field:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Citrus aurantium extract is widely used in weight loss products, functional foods and nutraceuticals as a natural fat burner and metabolism booster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Its pectin component can be used as a food thickener, emulsifier, gelling agent and stabilizer, and is widely used in jams, jellies, mayonnaise and other food products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cosmetic field:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The flavonoid components in Citrus aurantium extract have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, and can be used in the development of skin care products to help protect the skin from free radical damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Its pectin components can be used in cosmetics as moisturizers and stabilizers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
