The sweet orange, Citrus sinensis, traces its origin to China, India, and Southeast Asia. Around the ninth century, Moors brought the sweet orange to southern Spain. Eventually, the fruit made its way to Florida with Spanish explorers around 1565.

In addition to their numerous health benefits--due in large part to their rich supply of vitamin C--sweet oranges may also help with the treatment of vascular problems, such as varicose and spider veins, hemorrhoids, and diabetic neuropathy. This particular variety of orange (not to be confused with bitter orange, Citrus aurantium), contains a bioflavonoid called diosmin, which has been researched for more than 30 years.

But you don't need to own an orange grove to experience the benefits of sweet orange. Supplements of DiosVein--a proprietary form of diosmin combined with the bioflavonoid hesperidin and other ingredients--are a promising way to address circulation-related conditions.

Science Favors the Sweet Stuff

An estimated 25 percent of women and 10 percent of men complain of varicose veins, which can be linked to obesity, lack of exercise, and sitting or standing for extended periods.

Researchers know that capillary breakage, which can manifest as varicose or spider veins, is characteristic of vitamin C deficiency and that vitamin C maintains capillary health. Bioflavonoids appear to work with vitamin C to increase capillary strength and regulate their permeability. DiosVein capsules are therefore a natural option that may diminish varicose and spider veins by improving circulation.
