NameHesperetin
Groups experimental
DescriptionHesperetin belongs to the flavanone class of flavonoids. Hesperetin, in the form of its glycoside [hesperidin], is the predominant flavonoid in lemons and oranges.
Synonyms
  • (−)-hesperetin
  • Hesperetin
  • 3',5,7-Trihydroxy-4'-methoxyflavanone
  • (−)-(S)-hesperetin
  • (S)-2,3-dihydro-5,7-dihydroxy-2-(3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one
IndicationFor lowering cholesterol and, possibly, otherwise favorably affecting lipids. <i>In vitro</i> research also suggests the possibility that hesperetin might have some anticancer effects and that it might have some anti-aromatase activity, as well as activity again.
