What is Naringin?
- It belongs to a type of dihydroflavonoid compound, and due to the structural characteristics of dihydroflavonoids, Naringin possesses various biological activities.
- Source of Naringin: Citrus plants of the Rutaceae family (e.g., pomelo)and the peel and pulp of the grapefruit.They have the highest content of naringin.
- Naringin raw material is an off-white or light yellow powder, slightly soluble in cold water, and easily soluble in hot water, alcohol, acetone, or dilute alkaline solutions. Its solubility varies with factors such as temperature and pH.
- It is widely used in the pharmaceutical field, health product industry, food industry, cosmetics, and animal feed.

Naringin ----- Food Additive
- Preservative: Naringin has strong antioxidant properties,it is used as a natural antioxidant additive in oils, meat products, nuts, and other products to extend their shelf life. This is also the most important application of Naringin in the food industry.
- Natural Pigment/Colorant: It’s not due to its own color or coloring ability, but rather through reactions with different metal ions, producing various colored chelates, thus achieving a coloring effect.
- Sweetener: Naringin itself has a bitter taste, but it is a key raw material for the preparation of neohesperidin dihydrochalcone, a non-toxic, low-energy, high-sweetness novel sweetener.
- Bittering Agent:It has a strong, persistent bitter taste, but its “green” appearance is its advantage.It is commonly added to beverages (such as soda and energy drinks) and food products (such as chocolate and candy). It can not only enhance the unique flavor of the product, but also introduce antioxidant and other bioactive substances.It is highly favored by high-end products.
Naringin ----- Pharmaceuticals and Health Products
As an important component in compound formulations or as a single chemical/botanical drug, it can be formulated into tablets, capsules, injections, and other drug forms.
- It can be used for the prevention and adjunctive treatment of cardiovascular diseases(For example, by reducing blood viscosity and decreasing the formation of blood clots, etc.)
- It can be used for the adjuvant management of metabolic diseases (type 2 diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, etc.).
- It can be used for the adjuvant treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases and for regulating immunity (arthritis, colitis, etc.).
- It can also be used for nervous system protection (improving cognitive ability, enhancing memory, etc.).
As a dietary supplement, it can be formulated into capsules, tablets, oral liquids, or powders for use in the health product field. Its main functions are prevention, regulation, and improvement. It is a functional ingredient for “antioxidant, cardioprotective, and hepatoprotective” purposes.
Naringin - Animal Feed Additive
- As a feed additive derived from plant extracts, it meets the development trend of “antibiotic-free farming” and “green and healthy animal husbandry.”
- Naringin is a natural and safe feed additive with multiple functions, including antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and immune-enhancing properties.
- It is particularly suitable for use as a premix added to complete feed for pigs, poultry, ruminants, or aquatic animals.
- It can not only promote animal growth and reduce diseases, but also improve the reproductive capacity of breeding animals and Improve the quality of animal products.
Naringin ----- Cosmetic Additive
- As a natural, multi-functional active ingredient additive, it aligns with the consumer trends of “clean beauty” and “green cosmetics.”
- Naringin has antioxidant, anti-aging, whitening, brightening, soothing, and anti-inflammatory effects, making it a gentle and multi-functional ingredient for cosmetics.
- Used in a range of high-end skincare products, including serums, lotions, creams, eye creams, face masks, and sunscreens.
Structurally, Naringin has an extra sugar chain compared to Naringenin, which leads to differences in their solubility, taste, and certain biological activities. However, the connection between them is also extremely close, because for the human body, most of the Naringin that enters the body is converted into Naringenin to exert its effects.
Naringin obtained through a normal diet does not cause a significant decrease in hematocrit levels. However, if you take high doses of naringin while also taking chemotherapy drugs, sulfonamides, or anti-epileptic drugs, it can indirectly lead to a significant decrease in hematocrit levels .
This issue is currently still under research. Naringin theoretically has a positive effect on weight management, but it is also necessary to maintain healthy eating habits and regular exercise.
Naringin is highly hygroscopic and should be stored in a dry place, protected from light and high temperatures.
Advantages of Naringin
- It is of natural origin, not an artificially synthesized product, and is obtained through processes such as extraction, purification, and drying of raw materials.
- The raw materials are widely available, especially for food-grade and cosmetic-grade applications. By-products from the food processing industry (such as the citrus canning industry and fruit juice industry) are the most important and economical source of N It not only offers low costs and a stable supply, but also facilitates waste utilization and promotes a circular economy.
- Pharmaceutical-grade naringin is derived from the extraction of traditional Chinese medicinal materials such as immature bitter orange, mature bitter orange, and dried tangerine peel.We can ensure that the purity and quality standards of this raw material are of the highest level.
Side effects of Naringin
- Common side effects include mild symptoms such as bloating, nausea, and loss of appetite, especially after taking high doses. However, these are temporary and will disappear after stopping or reducing the dosage.
- Those allergic to citrus ingredients should avoid taking this product.As it may cause allergic reactions such as rashes, itching, and shortness of breath.
- The most serious risk of naringin is that it can interact with dozens of common medications, especially lipid-lowering and antihypertensive drugs. Taking them together can significantly increase the accumulation of these drugs in the body, potentially leading to poisoning.
- For pregnant and breastfeeding women, and individuals with impaired liver or kidney function, and other special populations.It is recommended to consult a doctor before use.
