SwansonDiosmin & Hesperidin

Diosmin and hesperidin are citrus flavonoids, a group of plant compounds found in citrus fruits. Hesperidin naturally occurs in citrus peels, while diosmin is often obtained from citrus flavonoids and then processed for use in supplements. Both substances are often used together in a single formula.

Hesperidin is naturally found in citrus fruits, especially in the peel and the white part of oranges, lemons, and mandarins. Diosmin is related to these citrus flavonoids and is usually obtained from compounds derived from citrus sources, such as Citrus aurantium.

Flavonoids are plant compounds that naturally occur in fruit, vegetables, herbs, tea, and cocoa. They belong to the polyphenols and, among other things, give plants their color, taste, and composition. Specific flavonoids are often used in supplements, such as diosmin and hesperidin from citrus fruits.
