Sweet Orange Overview
Sweet orange, also known as Citrus sinensis, is a type of citrus fruit native to Southeast Asia. It is a good source of vitamin C and other nutrients, including folate, potassium, and dietary fiber. It is also a good source of antioxidants, which are substances that help to protect the body's cells from damage caused by free radicals.
Sweet orange is used in traditional medicine as both aromatherapy and herbal remedies. The essential oil is generally extracted from the sweet orange peel and is used for its purported relaxant properties. As a dietary supplement, it is most commonly used to treat digestive problems and to help reduce the severity of colds and other respiratory infections.
Rabeprazole Overview
-
Rabeprazole is used to treat the symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a condition in which backward flow of acid from the stomach causes heartburn and possible injury of the esophagus (the tube that connects the throat and stomach) in adults and children 12 year of age and older. Rabeprazole is used to treat damage from GERD, allow the esophagus to heal, and prevent further damage to the esophagus in adults. Rabeprazole is also used to treat conditions in which the stomach produces too much acid, such as Zollinger-Ellison syndrome in adults. Rabeprazole is used to treat ulcers (sores in the lining of the stomach or intestine) and is used in combination with other medications to eliminate H. pylori (a bacteria that causes ulcers) in adults. Rabeprazole is in a class of medications called proton-pump inhibitors. It works by decreasing the amount of acid made in the stomach.
