Bergamot –– technically known as Citrus Bergamia Risso – is a citrus fruit that looks like an orange but has the brilliant yellow colouring of a lemon. It has a tart citrus taste, slightly reminiscent of a grapefruit. It has the highest percentage content of Vitamin C from over 40 species of citrus fruits.

Bergamot Juice has a unique profile of flavonoids containing flavanones and flavones – this has attracted a very high level of attention by medical researchers. They have discovered there is a direct and highly beneficial correlation between these flavonoids and our cardiovascular health – especially an ability to lower levels of cholesterol in much the same way as pharmaceutical statins.

BENEFITS OF BERGAMOT JUICE

Bergamot juice is high in polyphenols, a natural compound best known for its antioxidant effects. Polyphenols can help to protect against cardiovascular disease, bone loss, diabetes, and other degenerative disorders.

It has been shown that bergamot juice contains exceptionally large amounts of several unique polyphenols. And, when you drink the juice, this helps reduce triglycerides and LDL cholesterol, raising protective HDL cholesterol.
