Hesperidin
Hesperidin is a bioflavonoid that is predominantly found in citrus fruits in nature, such as oranges, lemons, and grapefruits. This substance is known for its antioxidant properties, ability to strengthen the walls of blood vessels, and positive effects on blood circulation and cholesterol levels.
Importance of Hesperidin in the Keto Diet
In the context of the keto diet, hesperidin can play an important role as it contributes to the maintenance of vascular health and may help reduce the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases.
Other actions attributed to it include:
- Enhancing the body’s antioxidant defenses.
- Improving blood circulation.
- Reducing inflammatory processes.
- Stabilizing cholesterol levels.
These effects are particularly valuable when following the keto diet, as it affects metabolic processes in the body and can lead to increased stress on the cardiovascular system.
However, considering that the keto diet restricts the intake of carbohydrates, including fruits, low-carb citrus fruits or dietary supplements become sources of hesperidin.
Sources of hesperidin for the keto diet:
- Dietary supplements with hesperidin
- Lemon zest
- Grapefruit zest
When choosing a source of hesperidin for the keto diet, it is important to consider the total amount of carbohydrates to avoid exceeding the established limit and exiting the state of ketosis.
