ANTIOXIDANT ARMOR ~Fruit Rinds ~ Quercetin

 

We’ve been eating fruit all wrong! The greatest concentration of vital nutrition is contained in the one part most often discarded – the rind. More fiber, vitamins and nutrients are packed into the edible outside than the flesh of the fruit alone. These healthful properties are uniquely concentrated like ‘antioxidant armor’ at a fruit’s front line — the rind.

 

The exterior of fruit acts as a defensive barrier against environmental stressors such as extrme temperature variations. As a result, the most potent and healthful properties are located in the skin.

WHICH IS WHY PEELS ARE BURSTING WITH FLAVOR AND NUTRITION.

 

Fruit rinds, on average, contain three to four times the fiber content compared to a serving of the flesh alone. Fiber not only makes a snack more satisfying, but high fiber diets are linked to less heart disease, improved gut health, lower cholesterol and and lower obesity rates.

 

Citrus peel enriched with flavonoids, polymethoxylated flavones and numerous bioactive components demonstrated anti-carcinogenic, anti-tumour, anti-proliferative and anti-inflammatory activities on skin cancer, gastric cancer, prostate cancer, oseophageal tumorigenesis, colon carcinogenesis, colorectal carcinoma cell, human squamous cell carcinoma and against human cancer cell lines.
