anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, and other fatty acids. Studies have

shown that acai has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and apoptic

(programmed cell death). effects A study published in the Journal of

Agricultural and Food Chemistry, showed extracts of Acai berries trig-

gered apostisis in up to 86 percent of leukemia cells tested.

Mangosteen (Garcinia magostana) is a plant native to Southeast

Asia. Studies reveal that xanthones from the fruit hulls of mangos-

teen have antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, and anti?inflammato-

ry properties. In one study mangosteen’s xanthones significantly

inhibited the growth of leukemia cells. One xanthone in particular,

alpha?mangostin, showed complete inhibition of leukemia cells

through the induction of apoptosis (programmed cell death). Other

studies indicate xanthones from mangosteen inhibit the activities of

COX?1 and COX?2 enzymes, prevent oxidative damage of LDL cho-

lesterol, have cytotoxic effects on liver cancer cells, and are antipro-

liferative, antioxidative, and apoptic against breast cancer cells.

Goji Berry (Lycium barbarum) polysaccharides exhibit anti-tumor,

immune enhancing and liver-protective properties. Studies suggest

that Goji polysacharides have positive effects when used with con-

ventional cancer treatments. A 1994 study done in China on

patients with a variety of cancers revealed that patients who were

given Goji Berry polysaccharides along with their conventional can-

cer treatment had a 40.9 percent response rate to the treatment,

while patients who received conventional treatment without the Goji

Berry supplement had only a 16.1 percent response rate.

Additionally the Goji Berry supplemented patients experienced

longer remissions and had a significant increase in natural killer cell

activity. Goji berries contain high levels of Zeaxanthin, a carotenoid

necessary for healthy vision that is present in high amounts in the

macula of the human eye. The Zeaxanthin in Goji berries is a natu-

rally esterifed zeaxanthin which has been proven to cause a higher

increase in plasma levels than the non-esterified form contained in

many supplements. Researchers have concluded that Goji is one of

the best antioxidants to promote healthy aging.

Pomegranate (Punica granatum) contains thousands of phytochem-

icals 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 produc-

tion in the endothelial cells of the vascular system protecting against

cardiovascular disease. Studies show consumption of the juice bene-

fits 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 demonstrate pomegranate inhibits

inflammation, slows cartilage loss in arthritis, improves sperm health,

and increases the overall antioxidant capacity of the blood.
