VITAMINS AND NUTRIENTS

Mandarin orange juice

Mandarins, like other citrus fruits, are particularly rich in primary metabolites, such as sugars and organic acids, amino acids and vitamins (vitamin C, provitamin A and B vitamins, mainly folic acid), as well as secondary metabolites, such as carotenoids, polyphenols (mainly flavonoids and flavones) and phenolic acids, limonoids and volatile compounds that together provide the characteristic flavor and nutritional benefits of mandarins.

Flavonoid

Flavonoids in citrus fruits can help reduce the risk or delay the onset of cardiovascular disease, cancer, osteoporosis, diabetes and neurodegenerative diseases.

Total carotenoids

Carotenoids are yellow, orange or red pigments synthesized by plants. The antioxidant activity of carotenoids is very important and may reduce the risk of developing chronic degenerative diseases.

Beta-carotene

Beta-carotene is an orange pigment found in certain fruits and vegetables. Beta-carotene is a precursor of vitamin A, which means that in the human body it is converted into vitamin A (retinol). Vitamin A is essential for healthy skin and mucous membranes, a well-functioning immune system and eye health.

Calcium

Calcium is an essential mineral for healthy bones and teeth, with most of the body's calcium being stored in them. Calcium is also important for the muscular and nervous system, for the health of the cardiovascular system and in the synthesis of hormones involved in many functions of the human body.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is also known as ascorbic acid. It is a water-soluble vitamin that occurs naturally in various fruits and vegetables. The human body cannot synthesize vitamin C endogenously, so it is an essential dietary component obtained exclusively from food. In addition to its function in the biosynthesis of certain compounds and its antioxidant properties, vitamin C plays an important role in immune function and improves iron absorption. Vitamin C is required for the biosynthesis of collagen, L-carnitine and certain neurotransmitters and plays an important role in protein metabolism. Vitamin C is a physiologically important antioxidant and has been shown to regenerate other antioxidants in the body, including vitamin E.

Folates (Folic acid)

Folic acid is a water-soluble vitamin of the B vitamin group, also known as vitamin B9. The body uses folates to produce genetic material, for the process of cell division and for the development of red blood cells.

Sea Buckthorn

Total carotenoids

Carotenoids are yellow, orange or red pigments synthesized by plants. Carotenoids commonly found in nature are alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, beta-cryptoxanthin, lutein, zeaxanthin and lycopene. The antioxidant activity of carotenoids is very important and may reduce the risk of developing chronic degenerative diseases.

Beta carotene

Licopen

Lycopene belongs to the group of carotenoids. It is recognized as a powerful antioxidant. Lycopene has been found to be effective in reducing the risk of cancer, diabetes mellitus, cardiac complications, oxidative stress-mediated dysfunction, inflammatory events, bone and skin diseases, liver, neuronal and reproductive disorders.

Lutein

Lutein is a carotenoid with anti-inflammatory properties. Lutein has a number of beneficial effects, particularly on eye health, improving or decreasing the risk of developing age-related macular diseases, which are the main causes of blindness and visual impairment. Furthermore, many studies have reported that lutein may also have positive effects in various conditions, improving cognitive function, lowering the risk of cancer and improving cardiovascular health.

Vitamin C

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin with antioxidant properties, which means it has the ability to protect the body's cells from harmful free radicals in the environment. It is also an important nutrient for vision, the reproductive system, vascular health, brain and skin health.

Vitamin K

Vitamin K is an essential nutrient for the human body. Vitamin K is important for blood clotting and bone health, wound healing, but it is also involved in other body functions.

Calcium

Calcium is an essential mineral for healthy bones and teeth, with most of the body's calcium being stored in them. Calcium is also important for the muscular and nervous system, for the health of the cardio-vascular system and in the synthesis of hormones involved in many functions of the human body.

Omega 3

Omega-3 is a group of essential fatty acids that play important roles in the human body. The most important omega-3 fatty acids are: ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid). Sufficient intake of omega-3 acids can help support normal fetal development, protect eye health, contribute to the health of the cardio-vascular system, reduce inflammation and improve mental health.

Omega 6

Omega-6 fatty acids, such as gamma-linolenic acid, are a group of essential unsaturated fatty acids. Omega-6 fatty acids are important for the normal growth and development of the body. The human body requires a healthy balance between omega-6 fatty acids and omega-3 fatty acids.

Omega 7

Omega-7 (palmitoleic acid) is a monounsaturated fatty acid. Omega-7 may be effective in managing metabolic disorders and improving skin quality.

Omega 9

Omega-9 is a group of non-essential, unsaturated fatty acids. They have benefits in reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease, improving depressive symptoms and cognitive function.

Phytosterols

Consuming plant sterols can reduce plasma cholesterol in humans. Lowering cholesterol is important for the prevention and management of coronary heart disease.

Amino acids

Sea buckthorn contains 18 of the 22 known amino acids. They are involved in important processes in the human body, such as energy production, tissue formation and fat metabolism, as well as in the proper functioning of the brain.

POSSIBLE BENEFITS

Mandarin orange juice

Antioxidant effect

Tangerines are rich in antioxidant plant compounds such as flavonoids. Carotenoids such as beta-carotene and beta-cryptoxanthin are compounds that give mandarin oranges their intense orange color and also have antioxidant activity.
The body converts beta-carotene and beta-cryptoxanthin into vitamin A, which is essential for a healthy immune system, vision and harmonious body development.

Anticarcinogenic effect

Flavonoids may have a protective effect against cancer by suppressing genes that support the growth of cancer cells. Beta-carotene and beta-cryptoxanthin due to their antioxidant effect may help reduce the risk of developing cancer.

Immunostimulant effect

With their high vitamin C content, tangerines can help support the immune system.
Vitamin C is an antioxidant that boosts immune cell function to fight oxidative damage caused by free radicals. Carotenoids such as beta-carotene and beta-cryptoxanthin are precursors of vitamin A. Vitamin A is essential for a well-functioning immune system. Tangerines are also an excellent source of vitamin C, another very important nutrient for the functioning of the immune system.

Beneficial for skin and wound healing

Vitamin C improves skin and tissue integrity. High-dose vitamin C supplementation can shorten wound healing time. Beta-carotene and beta-cryptoxanthin are biotransformed into vitamin A, an essential vitamin for skin health.

Beneficial effect on digestion

Citrus fruits, including tangerines, are rich in soluble fiber. Soluble fiber can help improve bowel transit and relieve symptoms of constipation. Tangerines also contain insoluble fiber. Insoluble fibers pass through the intestine without breaking down and are associated with a lower risk of chronic diseases and may help maintain a normal body weight.

Antilitiazic effect

A diet rich in citrus fruits like tangerines may be associated with a reduced risk of developing kidney stones. These are crystallized minerals that the body excretes in the urine. Low levels of citrate in the urine can cause certain types of kidney stones to form. Regular consumption of citrus fruits can increase citrate levels, which are thought to reduce the risk of developing kidney stones.

Sea buckthorn juice

Antioxidant effect

Many studies have confirmed the antioxidant activity of sea buckthorn compounds. Nutrients present in sea buckthorn have been shown to lower blood cholesterol levels and reduce inflammation and oxidative stress parameters. Bil Bilberry can be used as a natural source of antioxidants for the prevention and management of oxidative stress-related diseases.

Anti-inflammatory effect

The anti-inflammatory activity of sea buckthorn can be attributed to ursolic acid, oleanolic acid, citric acid derivatives and flavonoids. Its anti-inflammatory mechanism of action may be related to the inhibition of proinflammatory cytokines and a reduction in the production of proinflammatory mediators. Cumin has shown promise as a source of bioactive compounds used for the management of inflammatory diseases.

Antimicrobial and antiviral effect

Extract from sea buckthorn pulp may have bactericidal effects on some periodontal pathogens and may inhibit bacterial biofilm formation. Phenolic compounds in sea buckthorn fruit appear to inhibit the growth of gram-negative bacteria. It also shows significant antiviral activity.

Immunostimulatory and immunomodulatory effect

Flavones in sea buckthorn fruit may modulate the production and levels of several signaling molecules associated with immune function and inflammation. The vitamins and antioxidants contained may provide important immune support.

Toning and vitaminizing effect

Sea buckthorn fruit contains vitamins A and C, alpha-tocopherol, high amounts of carotenoids and vitamin E, minerals (K, Na, Mg, Ca, Fe, Zn, Se), monosaccharides, amino acids, flavonoids, fatty acids, glycerolphospholipids, phytosterols, zeaxanthin esters, polyphenolic compounds. Vitamin C is one of the major vitamins contained in sea buckthorn. Thanks to its rich vitamin and nutrient content, sea buckthorn can exert a toning and invigorating effect on the body.

Anti-cancer effect

Numerous studies support the anti-cancer effect of sea buckthorn and suggest that certain polyphenolic compounds may be responsible for this effect.

Lipid-lowering effect

Hypercholesterolemia is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The phytosterols present in sea buckthorn pulp play an important role in the prevention of cardiovascular disease, in particular in the prevention of hypercholesterolemia. Supplementation with fruit or extract of sea buckthorn fruit significantly improves total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-cholesterol („bad cholesterol”) and HDL-cholesterol („good cholesterol”) levels in people with dyslipidemia.

Anti-obesity effect

Oil from sea buckthorn fruit, also present in the pulp, may reduce obesity caused by hyperlipidemia. Also, powder obtained from sea buckthorn fruit may reduce obesity by altering the composition and structure of the gut microbiome.

Healing and regenerating effect

Sea buckthorn fruit and seed oil, also present in the pulp, contains high levels of unsaturated fatty acids (omega-3,6,7), natural antioxidants, vitamins (E, K), carotenoids and phytosterols. All these chemicals protect cell membranes and stimulate cell regeneration. Palmitoleic acid is a component used in the treatment of burns and wound healing. Sea buckthorn oil also has protective effects and can relieve various types of gastric ulcers, chronic cervicitis and atopic dermatitis.

Anti-diabetic effect

The potential hypoglycaemic, triglyceride-lowering and antioxidant effects of sea buckthorn-based supplements indicate that sea buckthorn products could be useful for preventing diabetic complications associated with dyslipidaemia and oxidative stress.

Gastroprotective effect

Compounds called procyanidins in sea buckthorn play an important role in healing gastric lesions, possibly by accelerating mucosal repair. Compounds present in sea buckthorn fruit normalize gastric acid secretion and reduce inflammation as well as pro-inflammatory factors.

Neuroprotective effect

Quercetin reduces intracellular deposits of beta-amyloid, one of the causes of Alzheimer's disease. This action can be attributed to the high levels of antioxidants present in sea buckthorn. Antioxidants inhibit beta-amyloid-induced toxicity and prevent cell death by exerting a neuroprotective effect. In addition, sea buckthorn improves epileptiform activity in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus and reduces memory impairment. These effects can be attributed to the presence of flavonoids and other antioxidant compounds in sea buckthorn.

Hepatoprotective effect

Sea buckthorn extract and sea buckthorn oil have significant hepatoprotective activities. Sea buckthorn oil is rich in carotenoids and may be an important source of lutein. Carotenoids such as beta-carotene, lycopene, lutein and beta-cryptoxanthin exhibit hepatoprotective activity by reducing oxidative stress and regulating lipid metabolism in hepatocytes. Mechanisms for these effects may be associated with the regulation of lipid metabolism and oxidative stress and a reduction in inflammatory processes.

AFFECTIONS

Viral infections

Viral infections are contagious diseases caused by viruses. There are several types of viral infections, including respiratory infections, gastric infections, herpes infections, skin infections and many others. The symptoms of a viral infection will depend on the part of the body affected and the virus contacted. Most viral infections go away on their own, but some infections can become severe and require treatment.

Oncologic diseases (cancer)

Cancer is a large group of diseases that can start in almost any organ or tissue of the body when abnormal cells grow out of control and invade adjacent parts or spread to other organs. Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally. Lung, prostate, colorectal, stomach and liver cancers are the most common types of cancer in men, while breast, colorectal, lung, cervical and thyroid cancers are the most common in women.

Astenie

Asthenia is a broad term describing general tiredness and weakness that causes both physical and mental symptoms.

Obese and overweight

Overweight and obesity is an abnormal or excessive accumulation of fat that poses a health risk. A body mass index greater than 25 means overweight and a body mass index greater than 30 indicates obesity.

Constipation

Constipation is characterized by a slow bowel transit, hard stools and bowel movements less than three times a week. Symptoms of constipation may include lumpy, hard or dry stools, a feeling of fullness even after bowel movements, and straining or straining during bowel movements.

Kidney stones

Kidney stones is a chronic disease characterized by the formation of stones (calculi) in the urinary system. A kidney stone can form when minerals build up in the urinary tract, creating crystals that consolidate into a stone-like mass.

Cardiovascular diseases

Cardiovascular diseases are a group of disorders that affect the heart and blood vessels. They include coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, rheumatic heart disease and other related conditions. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death globally.

Hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis

Hypercholesterolemia is the term used to define a high level of cholesterol in the blood. Excess cholesterol in the blood forms fatty deposits in the walls of the coronary arteries, the blood vessels that supply blood to the heart. As cholesterol builds up, it causes atherosclerotic plaques to form, which narrow and stiffen the walls of the arteries. This condition is called atherosclerosis. Atherosclerotic plaques can block arteries and limit the amount of oxygen-rich blood that can reach the heart. This increases a person's risk of developing angina pectoris and heart attack.

Gastric ulcer

Gastric ulcer is a lesion that develops in the lining of the stomach. Ulcers can also affect part of the intestine. This type of ulcer is called a duodenal ulcer. Gastric and duodenal ulcers are also called peptic ulcers. Gastric ulcers are pain and burning in the center of the abdomen, indigestion and nausea.

Liver diseases

The term liver disease refers to chronic conditions that affect the liver over time. Viral infections, toxic poisoning and certain metabolic disorders are among the common causes of chronic liver disease. Chronic liver disease progresses in about four stages: hepatitis, liver fibrosis, cirrhosis and eventually liver failure.

Diabetes

Diabetes is a chronic disease that occurs either when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin or when the body cannot use the insulin it does produce efficiently. Insulin is a hormone that regulates blood glucose. Hyperglycaemia is a common effect of uncontrolled diabetes and, over time, leads to serious damage to many systems and organs, especially nerves and blood vessels.

Eczema or atopic dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis, also known as eczema, is a chronic disease that causes inflammation, redness and irritation of the skin. Atopic dermatitis causes extreme itching of the skin. Scratching leads to worsening, crusting and flaking. In most cases, there are periods of time when the disease worsens, called relapses, followed by periods when the skin partly or completely improves, called remissions.

Macular degeneration

Macular degeneration is an eye disease that affects central vision. This eye condition is age-related and occurs mostly in people over the age of 50. Macular degeneration affects the macula, the central part of the retina. The retina is at the back of the eye and controls central vision, while peripheral vision is unaffected.

Neurodegenerative diseases

Neurodegenerative diseases are diseases that gradually affect and destroy parts of the nervous system, particularly areas of the brain. These diseases usually develop slowly, progressively and the effects and symptoms tend to appear later in life. This term does not refer to just one type of condition, but is a general term that covers several types of disease.

Astenie

Asthenia is a broad term describing general tiredness and weakness that causes both physical and mental symptoms.
