Many reasons you must take oranges (page 6 )

Asthma

In 2006, Cambridge researchers supporting a growing body of science that has linked antioxidant intake, particularly vitamins C and E, to the incidence of asthma, reported that moderate consumption (between 0.7 and 46.2 grams per day) of citrus fruits decreased the risk of asthma by 12 per cent. High consumption (46.3 grams per day or more) decreased the risk by 41 per cent.

The study, published in the journal Thorax, said also that apples consumption also reported a significant effect on the risk of asthma by 32 per cent. The mechanism behind the protective effects of vitamin C and manganese appears to be due to their antioxidant nature.

Diabetes

The citrus peel extracts, polymethoxylated flavones (PMFs), have beneficial effects on reducing insulin resistance in hamsters, suggesting the extract might also help prevent diabetes in humans. In 2006, the study, published in the journal Life Sciences, provides novel evidence that PMF reverse hypertriglyceridimia and restores insulin sensitivity,” said researchers from the University of Hawaii, in collaboration with KGK Synergize, a Canadian nutraceutical company.
