Natural orange flavor

Natural orange flavour is an aromatic extract derived from natural sources — primarily the zest or essential oil of the Citrus sinensis fruit. It is used in the formulation of food supplements to improve their palatability and make daily intake more pleasant, without altering their nutritional profile. Unlike artificial flavours, natural flavours are obtained from raw materials of plant or animal origin through physical, microbiological or enzymatic processes. Natural orange flavour provides a characteristic, light and familiar fruity note that helps mask the bitterness or neutral taste of certain active ingredients. Its role in a food supplement is primarily organoleptic: it has no nutritional purpose of its own, but supports compliance by making supplementation easier to incorporate into a daily routine. It is generally used in very small quantities and is among the best-tolerated ingredients in supplement formulations.
