Abstract

Eriodictyol is a flavanone compound commonly found in several edible plants. Ultrasound-assisted extraction and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) are commonly used methods for the separation and analysis of eriodictyol. Many studies show that some micro-organisms can produce eriodictyol as a host. What is more, eriodictyol has a wide range of health benefits, including skincare, neuroprotective, hypoglycemic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activities. In addition, the therapeutic properties of eriodictyol are cardioprotective, hepatoprotective, anticancer, with protective effects on the lungs and kidneys, and so on. This review examines the extraction, biosynthesis, and health and therapeutic properties of the natural compound eriodictyol and its value in medicine and food.
