FRUIT VEGETABLES - DAILY PRODUCE

Fruit Vegetables - Daily
Produce 24 helps in supplementing your daily
intake of fruits and vegetables, this supplement encapsulates various
vegetable and fruit juice powders to help protect the body against
oxidative damage by free radicals.*
Experts
agree that adults should eat at least five daily servings of fruits and
vegetables-and for optimal health benefits, they need seven to nine
daily servings. However, the U.S. National Cancer Institute and
National Research Council have found that only nine percent of adults
achieve the five-serving daily minimum. Even when we manage to eat
enough fruits and vegetables, modern methods of harvesting, processing,
and cooking often diminish their nutritional value.
Fruits and vegetables contain irreplaceable combinations of powerful
phytonutrients that are essential to good health. It's impossible to
pack all the nutrition of fresh fruits and vegetables into a capsule,
and no supplement can completely replace fruits and vegetables in the
diet. However, new scientific advances allow us to better encapsulate
many of the nutrients in fruits and vegetables to help bridge the gap
in the modern diet.
Daily Produce 24 Fruit Infusion and Vegetable
Infusion will help improve your health in several important
ways. In particular, these vegetable and fruit juice powders have been
shown to protect the body against oxidative damage by free radicals.
The ingredients in Vegetable Infusion and Fruit
Infusion come from whole fruits and vegetables grown under
ideal conditions in rich soil and harvested at peak maturation. Recent
research indicates that getting antioxidants from whole foods may be
more effective than taking isolated vitamins, minerals, and
antioxidants. Both supplements are packaged in gelatin-free capsules of
plant origin.*
The fruits and vegetables used in Daily Produce 24 are not
subjected to any unnecessary processing, heating, or pasteurization,
which can damage phytonutrients and weaken potency. The fruits and
vegetables are pulped in a manner that retains all the nutrient
sources, and the liquid is gently flash-dried to minimize damage to
nutrients. The resulting high-potency powder is encapsulated without
added binders and fillers.
FEATURES
& BENEFITS
- Provides excellent
protection against oxidative stress, as measured by the power and
duration of Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity.*
- Harvested and processed to
maximize whole-food benefits and preserve micronutrients and naturally
occurring enzymes.
- Features extracts that
retain natural deep color. Studies have shown that robust colors in
food indicate higher levels of nutrient activity.*
RESEARCH BRIEF
According
to Agricultural Research, Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) is
the measurement of "the ability of foods, blood plasma, and just about
any substance to subdue oxygen free radicals in the test tube." The
higher the ORAC value, the more potent the substance's
free-radical-scavenging capability. Consuming high-ORAC foods results
in a proportionate rise in blood serum ORAC. Across the board, fruits
and vegetables have higher ORAC values than any other foods.
Researchers at the Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on
Aging at Tufts University in Boston found that eating foods with
high-ORAC activity "raised the antioxidant power of human blood,
prevented some loss of long-term memory and learning ability in
middle-aged rats, maintained the ability of brain cells in middle-aged
rats to respond to a chemical stimulus, and protected rats' tiny blood
vessels-capillaries-against oxygen damage."
By consuming foods with high ORAC values, we may be able to combat the
effects of aging. Aging has been linked to oxidative stress on tissues
and cells. In fact, in certain human diseases associated with premature
aging, scientists have observed oxidation of proteins at a much higher
rate than in healthy subjects. Oxidative stress has also been
associated with coronary artery disease. Reducing oxidative stress and
damage through high-ORAC nutrition may lead to health and
longevity.*
