- Improves circulation and helps with certain venous disorders.
- May help with symptoms of venous insufficiency, such as cramps or ‘heavy legs'.
- Contains antioxidant potency, which may combat free radical damage and the effects of oxidative stress.
Diosmin Plus is a flavonoid supplement standardised to 80% diosmin, a natural compound with powerful venotonic benefits. It is designed to naturally reduce symptoms of venous insufficiency and improve circulation throughout the body, now available to buy at Supersmart.
Its enhanced bioavailability (the diosmin is 4-10 times better absorbed than standard supplements) makes it, along with the famous VeinoMax, one of the best natural venotonics available.
Diosmin Plus is for all those affected by any of the following:
Once ingested, it is rapidly converted into diosmetin by enzymes in the gut microflora. The diosmetin is then absorbed across the intestinal wall to be converted in the bloodstream into its more active metabolite: 3, 7-O-diglucuronide (5-6).
Unfortunately, most flavonoids – and diosmin is no exception – are not very soluble, which significantly reduces their absorption through the gastrointestinal wall (7).
To rectify this problem, Supersmart has employed three innovative, high-tech processes:
This approach produces a diosmin supplement which is much more absorbable than standard micronised supplements. Two studies have demonstrated that Diosmin Plus is 4-10 times more bioavailable compared with conventional micronised diosmin supplements (8-9).

Hesperidin methyl chalcone (HMC) supplement is an extract of Citrus aurantium standardised to 98% hesperidin methyl chalcone delivered in vegetarian capsules, to support venous health and improve circulation, now available to buy at Supersmart.
Hesperidin methyl chalcone (HMC) is a methylated derivative of the flavonoid compound hesperidin. It is found in several fruits, particularly citrus fruits, the majority of which are grown in Spain. The compound takes the form of a pale yellow, slightly bitter, water-soluble powder.
It is widely used in Japan, as well as in Europe both as a nutritional supplement and an ingredient in cosmetics. It is also available in pharmacies, mainly in combination with other plants such as butcher's broom, for treating circulation problems.
Unlike hesperidin itself, HMC is easily solubilised, facilitating its absorption in the gastrointestinal tract. Like all flavonoids, HMC is a powerful antioxidant, and is thus excellent for optimising eye health and protecting the cardiovascular system from oxidative attack. Its main activity, widely supported by clinical studies, lies in maintaining blood vessel integrity and strengthening the capillary network:
These latter developments suggest that HMC may also play a key role in approaches to age-related disorders – in preventing or even treating them. But it is really the compound's overall effects, particularly those related to general circulatory problems, which make such a strong case for supplementing with this very safe product - ideally at a dose of 500-1000mg/day for 2-3 months.
