What Is In Garden of Life products Fruits of Life?
Garden of LifeFruits of Life powder has been formulated by Jordan Rubin. It contains certified organic fruit extracts with
high scores in the ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capability) analysis
performed at Tufts University in Boston. Foods that score high on this
extensive test have been shown to significantly protect
cells and their components from oxidative damage and may even slow the
processes associated with aging in both body and brain function.
"If these findings are borne out in further research, young and middle-aged
people may be able to reduce aging-related diseases,including senility, simply by adding high-ORAC foods to their
diets," said ARS administrator Floyd P. Horn.
Chief of the neuroscience laboratory, James Joseph, PhD. says, "High ORAC foods have been found to
raise the antioxidant power of human blood 10% - 25% and prevent loss of
long-term memory and learning ability."
Garden of Life's Antioxidant Fruits of Life contains:
Blueberry:
Recent studies have shown that blueberries contain powerful antioxidants which may retard the effects of aging and play a significant role in preventing cancer. James Joseph, PhD. chief of the neuroscience laboratory at the Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University in Boston, says, "The blueberry has emerged as a very powerful food in the aging battle. Given the possibility that blueberries may reverse short-term memory loss and forestall other affects of aging, their potential may be very great."
Strawberry:
A great source of natural vitamin C and a rich source of phytochemicals such as quercetin and ellagic acid. It also
contains anthocyanin, a plant chemical that helps protect against heart disease.
Raspberry:
A rich source of ellagic acid, vitamin C, and fiber.
Blackberry: A concentrated source of anthocyanins and other phytochemicals.
Raisin:
Raisins (dried grapes), contain more than a dozen known antioxidants, as well as resveratrol, a phytonutrient shown to have cancer-prevention effects. Raisins are a rich source of polyphenols and proanthocyanidins, which are recommended in prevention and treatment protocols for cardiovascular disease, cancer, inflammatory conditions, asthma, diabetes, liver disease, cataracts, and macular degeneration.
Prune:
New studies show that, in addition to being a good source of fiber, prunes may also help slow the aging process in both the body and brain.
Mineral Matrix:
Garden of Life
TM has created this unique blend of alkalizing minerals, enzymes, and probiotics from goat's milk. Mineral Matrix
TM feeds the beneficial flora in the gastrointestinal tract, aiding in proper digestion and elimination. It contains a high
concentration of organic sodium and potassium, which produce alkaline reactions at the cellular level and aid in the reduction of acid.
Flavonoids:
Flavonoids are potent antioxidants that prevent the formation of free radicals. Flavonoids contain antibacterial and antiviral properties as well as offer protection to the vast network of capillaries and blood vessels in the system. The flavonoids
present in Fruits of Life
TM contain properties which help correct vision problems including night blindness. They also strengthen and repair broken capillaries, varicose veins, and cardiac irregularities arising from a decrease in blood flow and arterial blockage.
Proanthocyanidins:
This group of antioxidants is found in the seeds of grapes or raisins, and has known immune enhancing effects.
Anthocyanins:
Flavonoids such as anthocyanin, found in blueberries, have a unique chemical structure, that makes them 3 - 4 times more potent than vitamin C, according to Ronald L. Prior of Tufts University. Research indicates that anthocyanins offered as much protection as vitamin E against oxidative damage.
Ellagic Acid:
Strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, and blueberries contain the anticancer compound ellagic acid. It is a naturally occurring plant phenol with the highest concentrations contained in red raspberries. According to Dr. Gary D. Stoner, a pathologist at the Medical College of Ohio, ellagic acid is an antioxidant that helps detoxify cancer-causing agents in several different ways. Ellagic acid helps inhibit four different types of cancer causing agents, including aflatoxin and nitrosamines. Medical findings in Europe further show that ellagic acid reduces the incidence of birth defects, promotes wound healing, reduces and reverses chemically induced liver fibrosis, and is helpful in the fight against heart disease.
Glutathione:
Glutathione is considered to be the most important antioxidant for overall health. Dairy products, such as the goat's milk contained in the Fruits of Life
TM Mineral Matrix
TM, are potent sources of glutathione precursors. Glutathione helps regenerate cell tissue and is the most valuable detoxifying agent in the body. Low levels of glutathione are associated with early aging and premature death.
