References:
Acai Berry (Euterpe oleraceae) is the fruit of a palm tree
native to South America. The pulp and skin of acai are rich in
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 triggered 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 mangosteen have antioxidant, antibacterial,
antifungal, and anti?inflammatory 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 cholesterol, have cytotoxic effects on liver
cancer cells, and are antiproliferative, 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 conventional 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 cancer
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 naturally 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
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
demonstrate pomegranate inhibits inflammation, slows
cartilage loss in arthritis, improves sperm health, and
increases the overall antioxidant capacity of the blood.
Antiox Phyto Complex II
Some of the most powerful, broad-spectrum
antioxidants are those found in plants.
This supplement contains a blend of several of the
most potent plant-derived phyto-antioxidants
available, in a high potency, professional strength
Veggie Cap.
New, High Potency 375 mg Veggie Caps
90 Veggie Caps - Product Code 63745
Phyto-Tech™ Antiox Phyto Complex II is a blend of powerful
plant-derived (phyto) antioxidants. Most health problems are
either directly or indirectly related to oxidative (free-radical)
damage. While vitamins and minerals (vitamin C, vitamin E
and selenium, for example) are antioxidants, it is now
recognized that phytoantioxidants, rich in a broad spectrum
of flavonoids, polyphenols, anthocyanidins, etc are the most
powerful.

C
an one nutrient can reduce your risk of
stroke, heart failure, diabetes, and, last
but not least, death?
We have talked about the importance of
magnesium supplementation frequently over
the years. We have urged you to take
magnesium along with calcium rather than
calcium alone. We have modified the ratio of
calcium to magnesium in our broad spectrum
multivitamin-multimineral supplement,
Willvite.
Were We Right?
Doctors measured magnesium in the diets
of more than 1 million participants in 40
studies covering follow-up periods from four
to 30 years. Here is what they found: overall,
those with higher levels of magnesium were
less likely to develop several health
conditions, as follows:
Because of the many studies and
conditions, doctors used a standard
increment of 100 mg per day to measure
health changes in response to magnesium
levels.
For stroke, each 100 mg increase in
magnesium per day reduced chances for this
condition by 7 percent. For heart failure,
each 100 mg increase reduced chances by 22
percent. For type 2 diabetes, chances were
19 percent lower, and chances of dying from
any cause decreased 10 percent for each 100
mg increase in magnesium per day.
