many supplements. Researchers have concluded that
Goji is one of the best antioxidants to promote healthy
aging.
Pomegranate (Punica granatum) contains thousands of
phytochemicals including anthocyananins, ellagic acid
derivatives, catechins and procyandins, flavonols, fatty
acids and sterols. Human studies show that pomegranate
polyphenols and their metabolites offer protection
against various diseases. Pomegranate increases nitric
oxide production in the endothelial cells of the vascular
system protecting against cardiovascular disease. Studies
show consumption of the juice benefits patients with
carotid artery stenosis, those with hypertension, and
those with coronary heart disease. Pomegranate has been
heavily studied in the treatment of prostate cancer. In
one study when men with aggressive prostate cancer
were given pomegranate juice daily after treatment by
surgery or radiation, there was over a four-fold prolonged
delay in prostate specific antigen (PSA) doubling time,
and the rate of PSA rise was reduced by 50% over the
course of just one year. Numerous other studies demon-
strate pomegranate inhibits inflammation, slows cartilage
loss in arthritis, improves sperm health, and increases the
overall antioxidant capacity of the blood.
The powerful antioxidants in Green Tea may help fight
the free radicals that contribute to skin, lung, and stom-
ach cancer as well as contribute to lowered blood pres-
sure and LDL cholesterol. Green Tea is rich in a type of
polyphenol called catechin. Catechins are 40 to 200
times more effective in seeking out and destroying free
radicals than Vitamin A, C and E. These catechins
include four major polyphenols including epigallocate-
chin gallate (EGCG), epicatechin gallate (ECG), epigallo-
catechin (EGC) and epicatechin (EC). Of these com-
pounds EGCG is the most abundant in green tea and has
generated the most interest. Peer?reviewed scientific
research has consistently shown that EGCG is a potent
antioxidant, deactivating health-damaging free-radicals.
By virtue of its antioxidant effects EGCG has been shown
to exert a number of beneficial activities, such as reduc-
ing inflammation, and normalizing cell and tissue func-
tions. In promoting cardiovascular health EGCG has been
shown to inhibit free-radical activity in the arteries,
improving coronary circulation. Other studies have
shown that ECGC has a benefit in normalizing blood glu-
cose and protecting the pancreas from oxidative damage,
as well as in boosting metabolism and burning fat. Green
tea catechins and ECGC in particular have also been
shown to naturally support detoxification and the elimi-
nation of toxic substances from the body while protect-
ing the liver.
Grape skin and grape seed extracts are anti-inflamma-
tory and radioprotective. They are abundant in a group
of polyphenols called procyanidins. Procyanidins are
strong antioxidants, lipid peroxidation inhibitors, and free
radical scavengers. Procyanidins have antimutagenic
effects, meaning they can counteract environmental
mutagens, which are thought to be one of the causes of
chronic degenerative diseases. Procyanidins also increase
circulation making them helpful for conditions such as
venous insufficiency (a condition in which the veins hav
trouble sending blood from the legs back to the heart).
placebo controlled study showed that treatment with
procyanidins improved venous functionality and reduce
pain, cramps, edema and paresthesias (tingling). Due to
procyanidins positive effects on circulation, grape skin
and seed extracts are helpful for numerous vision disor-
ders. Studies show treatment with procyanidins from the
extracts increase resistance to glare, decrease ocular
stress from prolonged activity at a computer and improv
contrast sensitivity, retinal function and sensitivity in
myopia (nearsightedness).
