Neohesperidin Explained

Neohesperidin is a flavanone glycoside found in citrus fruits.[1] It is the 7-O-neohesperidose derivative of hesperetin, which in turn is the 4'-methoxy derivative of eriodictyol. Neohesperidin dihydrochalcone has an intense sweet taste, and is listed as a generally recognized as safe flavour enhancer by the Flavor and Extract Manufacturers Association.[2]
