Bergamot extract powder is a citrus fruit native to southern Italy. Citrus bergamia or Citrus aurantium is the scientific name for bergamot. A variety of phytochemicals have been found in bergamot, including brutieridin and melitidin as well as other flavonoids, the flavonoids O-glycosides, and C-glycosides. Oral bergamot in different forms reduces total and LDL cholesterol. In vitro, mechanistic studies have shown that polyphenols in bergamot can alter the functions of AMPK and pancreatic cholesterol esterase (pCEH). It is also used to manage high blood cholesterol levels and other medical conditions, including anxiety, mental alertness, and joint pain.The extract has been used to add fragrance to food, perfume and cosmetics.

The fragrant skin of bergamot fruit is considered to have antibacterial, antiviral, antioxidative, and lipid-lowering effects, and can be used to make antibacterial agents, antiviral agents, preservatives, and lipid-lowering drugs. In addition, naringenin, the main active ingredient in bergamot extract, is also widely used in cardiovascular diseases, such as hypertension, arteriosclerosis, coronary heart disease, and other fields.

While most citrus fruits contain flavonoids, bergamot is unique in that it contains especially high flavonoid content. Neoanthobidin, naringin, and neohesperidin have been isolated and identified in bergamot. C-glucoside flavonoids identified in bergamot include apigenin 6,8-di-c-glucoside, diometin 6,8-di-c-glucoside, lucenin‐2, vicenin‐2, stellin‐2, lucenin‐2‐40‐methyl ether, scoparin, and orientin 40‐methyl ether; flavonoid O‐glycosides identified in bergamot include brutieridin, melitidin, rhoifolin 40‐O - glucoside, chrysoeriol 7‐O - nehesperidoside‐40‐ O - glucoside, dismin, rhoifolin, chrysoeriol 7‐O - nehesperidoside, narirutin, and neodismin. Bergamot peel and many other citrus peels are high in volatile compounds and are therefore widely used in the perfume and cosmetic industries.

The origin of bergamot dates back 3 centuries ago and is said to have been cultivated in China. In the 15th century, Arabs brought bergamot to Italy, first on the island of Langkawi, and later spread to Sicily and Calabria. Today, bergamot is grown almost exclusively in the narrow coastal Calabria region of southern Italy due to its sensitivity to weather and soil conditions.

Although the "bergamot" mainly produced in our country is also called "bergamot", it is essentially different from the bergamot in Italy.

Italy Bergamot

China Bergamot

• "Bergamot" in my country also belongs to the citrus genus of Rutaceae. When the fruit is ripe, each carpel is separated to form a slender and curved fruit petal, shaped like a finger, hence the name bergamot. Usually used in traditional Chinese medicine, because of its unique fruit shape, it is also used as an ornamental plant.

• The bergamot, which is mainly produced in Italy, has a fruit like a small orange, with pitted skin and a pear-shaped shape. This peel is also a characteristic of bergamot.

1. Good for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases
Bergamot has received a lot of attention for being rich in antioxidants and flavonoids in both its juice and peel, which are effective in maintaining healthy cholesterol levels and cardiovascular health in humans.

In the Calabria region of Italy, bergamot juice is also considered a remedy for supporting healthy cholesterol levels and cardiovascular health by local residents.

The juice and albedo of bergamot have a unique profile of flavonoids and glycosides such as neohesperidin, neohesperidin, naringin, rutin, neodesmin, rofolin, and citrusin. Naringin is beneficial in animal models of atherosclerosis, while neonaringin and rutin have been found to exhibit a strong ability to prevent LDL oxidation.

• Promote blood circulation: The active ingredients in Bergamot Herb Powder help dilate blood vessels, increase blood fluidity, and improve blood circulation. This can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and microvascular diseases such as diabetes.

• Lower cholesterol: naringin and other ingredients in Citrus Bergamot Extract have the effect of lowering cholesterol levels, which helps prevent and manage atherosclerosis and improve the health of capillaries.

• Inhibition of thrombosis: Bergamot Herb Powder contains naringin and other components that have anti-platelet aggregation effects, help prevent thrombosis, and improve the patency of fine blood vessels.

2. Antioxidant capacity
The antioxidant substances in Bergamot Extract Powder can neutralize free radicals in the body. Free radicals are by-products of the body's production process that can be induced by environmental factors such as UV rays, pollutants, and smoking. Free radicals are bad for your health because they can damage cells, trigger oxidative stress and inflammation, and cause chronic disease. The high antioxidant capacity of bergamot extract  neutralizes the activity of free radicals and protects cells from oxidative stress damage. This antioxidant property gives it the following benefits:

• Anti-aging: Excessive accumulation of free radicals in cells will lead to cell aging, and antioxidant substances can help slow down this process and maintain the stability of cell function and structure.

• Protects heart health: Antioxidants can help lower cholesterol levels and prevent oxidative damage, helping to reduce damage to blood vessel walls and reduce the risk of heart disease.

• Anti-cancer effect: free radicals are related to the development of cancer, and antioxidant substances can neutralize the activity of free radicals, thus helping to prevent the occurrence of cancer.

Bergamot Extract Powder is used in teas and health foods and added to cosmetics and skin care products. Of course, bergamot extract has become a common health supplement due to its remarkable benefits in maintaining cholesterol levels and cardiovascular health in the body. In addition, bergamot extract is also widely used in the food and beverage industry. For example, adding bergamot essential oil and extract to ice cream and beverages can increase its flavor, taste, and nutritional value.
