Abstract

In particular, when it comes to the cure and management of chronic diseases, consuming a diet that contain natural products such as; plants is crucial for health promotion. Citrus fruit has been widely consumed and possess nutritional components that supports the management and cure of various disease conditions and the underlying metabolic changes that leads to development of long term serious diseases. Multiple citrus fruit species are analyzed for their curative effect particularly for the diseases that are associated with metabolic alterations such as diabetes, heart burn and dyspepsia. Diabetes is found to be effectively cured and allied health problems are managed by the use of citrus fruits and the speci c secondary metabolites found in citrus fruits such has; hesperidin, naringenin and nobiletin. Citrus fruits primarily contain avonoids, which have a number of advantageous properties for health promotion, especially anti-diabetic effects. Present review enlightened the speci c curative potential of citrus fruits and phytochemicals on the living organisms, the potential anti-diabetic e cacy and the metabolic pathway of citrus bioactive compounds hesperidin and naringenin is explained. Mechanistic regulation of metabolic disturbances owing to various disease conditions that are root caused by diabetes are effectively done by the bioactive compounds of citrus fruits. Citrus fruits have matchless bene ts when it comes the issues of hyperglycemia, while their antidiabetic effects and have ameliorative effect on diabetes related health problems remain to be veri ed in detail at molecular and clinical level in forthcoming studies.
