May have anticancer properties
Tangerine antioxidants may have cancer-fighting effects. Vitamin C may help to reduce tumor development and spread, boost wound healing after surgery, and improve the efficacy of chemotherapy while lowering toxicity. According to research, patients with cancer tend to be deficient in vitamin C, and vitamin C supplementation may improve outcomes for those with terminal cancer. Human research, on the other hand, remains inconclusive.
Citrus fruit flavonoids have been linked to a lower risk of some malignancies, including stomach, breast, colon, and lung cancer. Keep in mind, however, that most studies employed high quantities of the vitamins or chemicals contained in tangerines, which is not the same as eating tangerines. As a result, more investigation is required.
