CITRACTIVE, the citrus revelation revolutionising health and well-being
At the heart of sweet oranges lies a powerful ally for health and wellness. CITRACTIVE, extracted specifically from Citrus sinensis, is emerging as an innovative solution with multiple benefits for the human body. At Bordas, we are at the forefront of citrus flavonoid innovation, and today we present our new and versatile solution aimed at improving people’s quality of life.
What exactly is CITRACTIVE?
CITRACTIVE is naturally found in high concentrations in citrus fruits, especially in the white inner layer and peel of oranges. It comes as a beige to yellowish powder, obtained through a meticulous extraction process that ensures its purity and efficacy.
Functional properties: a protective shield
Scientific research conducted at Bordas has revealed that CITRACTIVE acts in the body through three main mechanisms, offering comprehensive protection:
1. Powerful antioxidant defence
Each day, the body faces free radicals—unstable molecules that cause oxidative stress and accelerate cellular ageing. CITRACTIVE acts as a powerful antioxidant, neutralising these harmful agents and protecting cells from their damaging effects. This action helps maintain cellular integrity and prevent age-related deterioration.
2. Cardioprotective effect
Cardiovascular health is fundamental to a long and active life. CITRACTIVE has proven to be an excellent ally for the heart and blood vessels. It helps improve circulation, strengthens capillaries, and supports healthy blood pressure. Its ability to protect the cardiovascular system makes it a key ingredient in formulas aimed at supporting heart health.
3. Suppression of pro-inflammatory processes
Chronic inflammation is a silent yet harmful response in the body that can lead to various diseases. CITRACTIVE possesses remarkable anti-inflammatory properties, helping to modulate and reduce inflammatory responses. This effect is particularly beneficial for muscle recovery and overall well-being.
Application fields of CITRACTIVE
Thanks to its extraordinary properties, this new solution proposed by the Bordas technical team is ideal for a wide range of applications designed to enhance health and well-being.
Food supplements
The combination with Vitamin C creates a dynamic duo, enhancing Vitamin C’s action, improving absorption, and strengthening immune defences. Together, they offer superior antioxidant protection.
Cosmetics industry
CITRACTIVE’s antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties also translate into visible skin benefits. Used in cosmetic formulations, it helps improve skin condition, acts as an emollient, and protects against environmental aggressors that cause premature ageing.
Technical characteristics
- Appearance: Beige to yellowish powder
- Solubility: Soluble in diluted hydroxide solutions, which facilitates its incorporation into various formulations
- Synergy: Demonstrated synergistic effect in combination with Diosmin, enhancing results
Also available through advanced micronisation technology. This state-of-the-art process reduces the particle size of the compound, resulting in several benefits:
- Precise and concentrated dosing: Micronisation ensures superior absorption in the body, allowing for a much more accurate and concentrated dosage.
- Lower quantity, greater efficacy: Thanks to its increased bioavailability, it is possible to reduce the necessary dose without compromising effectiveness while achieving the same benefits.
- Improved stability: This technology not only enhances the effect but also improves product stability, significantly prolonging its shelf life and ensuring long-lasting potency.
At Bordas, we are committed to revealing the purest and most effective ingredients nature has to offer. CITRACTIVE is the result of in-depth research and an unwavering commitment to quality.
