DESCRIPTION
Ultra Antioxidants pack (# 1) of Functionalab, offers a comprehensive antioxidant blend including antioxidant-rich superfruits designed to protect cells against free radical attacks.
FUNCTIONS
Studies show that a high percentage of adults eat less than the minimum daily recommendation of 10 or more essential nutrients. Adequate amounts and proper balance of these nutrients are needed not only for maintaining good health, but also for the dietary management of the body’s structure as well as the optimal functioning of the body, such as the immune and gastrointestinal systems. Ultra Health has been carefully developed to contain the right proportions of vitamins, minerals, trace elements, and other nutrients without danger of toxic build-up or other side effects.
In Scientific parlance, Free radicals are any chemicals that have an unpaired electron or a free electron. Excessive production of free radicals can damage useful cells and compromise your health essentially by trying to “steal” electrons from other cells. Fats, proteins, carbohydrates, and DNA are all subject to free radical damage. Once damaged, a tissue may no longer function properly. Indeed, it is widely accepted in the scientific community that free radical may be one of the causal factor driving the aging process. Fortunately our body has developed effective strategies to detect and limit free radical damages. Aging is an inevitable process of life. However, cutting-edge research has shown that it is possible to do something about it, and the notion of healthy aging was born. Free radicals have been coined by scientists. They can cause damage to proteins, lipids and DNA. In the skin, the deleterious action free radicals will negatively affect cell membranes, the fibrillar structure of collagen and elastin and the integrity of lipids involved in the epidermal barrier function. Ultimately, damage caused by free radicals become irreversible and may lead to functional and structural alterations. Indeed, it is widely accepted in the scientific community that free radical may be one of the causal factors driving the aging process. The outcome is obviously readily visible at the skin level. Fortunately, our body has developed effective strategies to detect and detoxify free radicals limiting collateral damage. Antioxidants help to “buffer” the damage induced by free-radicals.
The Superfruit formula included in this pack is a potent blend of botanical extracts that supplies powerful antioxidant activity to fight free radicals. ORAC value is measured on every lot of Superfruit, and is typically around 7,000 μmole TE per serving which is the ORAC equivalent of 8 – 11 servings of fruits and vegetables. Superfruit antioxidant blend includes health benefits of white tea extract (standardized to 90% polyphenols and 70% catechins), Apple and Pomegranate fruits extract, and Blueberry extracts.
CoQ10 is a well known antioxidant that helps support the immune system and promote cardiovascular health by impeding the formation of free radicals. Coenzyme Q10 is a naturally-occurring antioxidant nutrient which retards free radical formation in biological systems. Coenzyme Q10 resembles vitamin E and vitamin K in chemical structure. Biochemically, it functions much like vitamin E in that it participates in certain antioxidant and free radical reactions. According to some experts, coenzyme Q10 should be considered an essential nutrient, as it is well established that coenzyme Q10 is essential for the health of every cell in the human body. Numerous studies indicate coenzyme Q10 also plays an important role in the maintenance of the entire cardiovascular system. Supplementation with coenzyme Q10 in patients has shown to be useful for the maintenance of already healthy blood pressure. Coenzyme Q10 is also important for the maintenance of blood vessels and heart muscle function.
Lipoic acid is unique among biological antioxidants, because it is soluble in both water and lipids. This allows it to neutralize free radicals just about everywhere in the body, inside and outside the cells. Because alpha-lipoic acid is involved in so many different antioxidant functions in virtually all body tissues, it has been called the universal antioxidant. Besides being a universal free radical scavenger, alpha-lipoic acid can also recharge other antioxidant systems throughout the body. Also, it can extend the activity of vitamins C and E and regenerate glutathione.
Hyaluronic acid is found in varying levels in the dermis. Variations in levels account for natural skin alterations associated with aging, such as altered elasticity, decreased hydration and appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid is also a well known antioxidant helping to protect against free radicals attacks.
