( Natural News ) Citrus fruits are rich in vitamin C, which can help strengthen the immune system. But according to study, citrus fruits can also help lower your risk of stroke . Earlier research has determined that certain orange phytochemicals can even help protect against intracerebral hemorrhage and significantly improve blood flow in the brain. The study, which was conducted at the University of East Anglia , showed that eating citrus fruits, especially oranges, can greatly reduce the risk of ischemic stroke. The scientists involved in the study compared the health of women who consumed oranges and grapefruit regularly to those who did not. Flavonoids and blood vessel health The researchers examined the flavonoid content of citrus fruits and how they affect blood vessel health. They also analyzed an estimated 14 years’ worth of Nurse’s Health Study data, which monitored the health and diets of around 70,000 women. The researchers studied correlations among six flavonoid sub-classes from citrus fruits linked to risks of hemorrhagic, ischemic, or complete stroke.

Data revealed that the women who ate the highest amounts of orange and grapefruit , along with juices from the two fruits, had better blood circulation and a 19 percent reduced stroke risk associated with blood clotting compared to the women who didn’t eat the same amount of citrus fruit. Separate studies of flavonoids in fruit confirm these results. Overall, an increased consumption of various kinds of fruit can help lower stroke risk and improve one’s well-being. 100% organic essential oil sets now available for your home and personal care, including Rosemary, Oregano, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Clary Sage and more, all 100% organic and laboratory tested for safety.
