  • Patent number: 11135145
    Abstract: The invention relates to a composition, in particular to an oral anti-ageing composition for treating hair ageing. This invention is based on the observation that the combination of hesperetin, a flavanone, derivable from a natural rutinoside hesperetin 7-rutinoside (also known as hesperidin) in citrus, e.g., in Citrus aurantium L, Citrus sinensis, Zanthozylum gilletti, leaves of Agathosma serratifolia, and trans-resveratrol synergistically up-regulates NQO-1 in a gene expression assay. The combination also induces Glo1, decreases MG and MG-protein glycation, decreases insulin resistance, decreases fasting plasma glucose, induces modest weight loss, improves renal function, decreases vascular inflammation marker slCAM-1, improves arterial dilatation and decreases the risk of cardiovascular disease.
