Bioactives, polyphenols, phytochemicals, flavonoids…with so many ways to describe naturally occurring plant compounds, the topic can get complicated. In this presentation, we’ll dive into the latest research on the science of bioactives, with a focus on citrus, as well as share the results of a consumer survey aimed at identifying consumer-friendly messaging to enhance your ability to communicate and share the health benefits of these compounds with your patients and clients.
