How does it work?
Diosmin is a flavonoid that can also be isolated from hesperidin, a flavonoid derived from citrus fruits. DiosVein is derived specifically from Sweet Orange. When taken orally by humans, diosmin is converted to diosmetin by the bacterial flora of the intestines prior to being absorbed into the bloodstream. Certain studies suggest that diosmin has numerous beneficial effects on blood vessels and circulation. These effects include enhancing venous tone, supporting lymphatic drainage, promoting the health of cells comprising the blood vessel lining and supporting normal, but not excessive, capillary permeability. Vitamin K activates a protein present in blood vessels known as Matrix Gla Protein (MGP), which inhibits arterial calcification and is known to be necessary for maintenance of vascular health.
