That's right. Turns out all of time I was told to "just try" or "eat up" those tangerines, I had no idea of their great antioxidant properties! By the way, I do enjoy tangerines.
So what makes tangerines so good? In a word, flavonoids. Flavonoids give vegetables and fruits their color, they're pigments. Flavonoids are well known for antioxidant effects.
Also in the white pith of the tangerine is a compound called nobiletin. In a study, mice were treated with nobiletin and they were initially showed that it aided with obesity.
Then, in longer term studies, the mice were protected from plaque build up in the arteries and atherosclerosis, which can lead to stroke and heart attack.
This information comes from Dr. Murray Huff, Director of the vascular biology research group at the Robarts Research Institute, University of Western Ontario, USA.
