The tangerine fruit peels of Citrus reticulata contain significant amounts of three flavanones: hesperidin, naringin, and narirutin. Citrus is a rue group species of blooming trees and shrubs. In contrast to flavonol and quercetinRutaceae, citrus peel complex compounds quantities of flavonol and quercetinRutaceae. DM is one of most chronic diseases in the world. Citrus reticulata is a kind of citrus fruit with a various degrees of Hesperidin, a glycosylated flavanone of hesperetin, suppresses gluconeogenic pathways and diminishes intestinal glucose absorption in diabetes patients, leading in anti-hyperglycemic properties. Recent research looks into the efficacy of naringin to improve cholesterol levels by reducing HMGCoA reductase. Citrus sinensis, Citrus paradisi, and their combination have antihyperlipidemic and antiatherosclerosis properties.
