00:00Your daily glass of orange juice may be doing more than you think.
00:03New research suggests it could influence thousands of genes in the body.
00:07Researchers studied adults drinking 500 milliliters of pure orange juice every day.
00:13After 60 days, several genes linked to inflammation became less active.
00:18Some genes connected to blood pressure and salt retention also showed changes.
00:23Scientists believe a citrus compound called hesperidin may help drive these effects.
00:27Previous studies have also linked regular orange juice consumption with lower cholesterol and insulin resistance.
00:34One review examined 639 people across 15 controlled studies.
00:39Other research found possible improvements in blood vessel function and blood sugar control.
00:44But researchers stress that not every study found the same benefits.
00:48Whole fruit still provides more fiber, while scientists continue studying juice's long-term effects.
