1. Brief Information

Naringin DC (Naringin dihydrochalcone or NADC for short) is a novel high intensity sweetener derived from naringin, a bioflavonoid naturally found in citrus. Naringin DC is 500-700 times sweeter than sucrose. Due to its many advantages like high sweet taste, low caloric, innocuity and safety, Naringin DC can be used in areas like food, medicine and health-care products, as bitterness blocker or in bitter blocker tablets. Naringin dihydrochalcone displays clean taste profile, long aftertaste and special faint scent, as well as fine virtue of bitterness blocking.

Naringin is a major flavanone glycoside from Pomelo peel, and it has been experimentally demonstrated to improve long-term memory in the transgenic AD mouse model. It is interesting that whether its derivatives or other similar compounds may also have comparable or even better therapeutic effects on AD. Naringin dihydrochalcone is a widely used natural compound derivative in food, medicine, and cosmetic industry as an artificial sweetener with antioxidant activity. Large amount of evidence suggests that oxidative stress (OS) is involved in the development of AD , indicating NADC may have beneficial effects on the treatment of aging and neurodegenerative diseases. Research results suggest that oral administration of NADC ameliorated cognitive deficits, alleviated amyloid plaque burden and Aβ levels, suppressed neuroinflammation, and enhanced neurogenesis.
