Protection against free radicals
*Supplementation with antioxidants such as vitamins C and E has
been growing rapidly in the past few years as research on harmful
free radicals intensifies. Free radicals are atoms, ions, or molecules
with one or more unpaired electrons which bind to and destroy
cellular compounds. Dietary antioxidants disarm free radicals
through a number of different mechanisms. Foremost, they bind to
the free electrons, "pairing up" with them, creating an innocuous
cellular compound that the body can eliminate as waste. The antioxidants
in this formula also support and enhance the body's natural
defense mechanisms against free radicals: the enzymes superoxide
dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase. Recent research
points to the fact that a synergistic combination of antioxidants is
more effective than the total effect of each antioxidant taken alone.
AntiOxidant Formula offers a synergistic, broad spectrum of antioxidants
designed to protect against free radical damage in every cell
of the body.

The combined nutritional power of
pomegranate, acai and red raspberry; for cardiovascular and cellular
health
*Polyphenols and anthocyanins are just
some of the components of pomegranate contributing to its vascular support
properties, including antioxidant protection for healthy coronary endothelial
cells. Pomegranate juice consumption has also been associated with helping to
moderate the effects of stress on healthy heart and circulatory function as well
as maintaining healthy blood vessel relaxation properties. Red raspberry
flavonoids provide complementary vascular support, especially for neutralizing
free radicals that attack lipid cell membranes. Ellagic acid, found in both
extracts, also has a promising role in supporting liver, lung, esophagus,
stomach, colon and prostate health. The prized palm berry acai of Brazil, where
it is known as "the fruit of life", is a dynamic, nutrient dense addition to
this formulation, offering vitamins, minerals, fiber, essential fatty acids,
amino acids, and anthocyanins. As a source of potassium, calcium, magnesium and
phytosterols, acai berry presents synergistic cardiovascular support potential.
Furthermore, acai has oleic acids and provides an ideal profile of heart?healthy
mono and polyunsaturated fatty acids, comparable to that of olive oil. Naturally
occurring alpha tocopherol and tocotrienols are also valuable components for
lipid antioxidant protection. In a university study, acai berry also revealed
important support for maintaining healthy cell cycle function.
Pomegranate Plus provides a diverse
profile of highly bioactive phytochemical, phenolic, flavonoid and nutritional
components for exceptional vascular and cellular support
potential.
