REGENEBLEND (LIQUID) INGREDIENT BENEFIT SUMMARY The power of the product is the synergistic blend of fruits, vegetables, legumes and bioactive spices. It is now widely believed that the actions of the antioxidant nutrients alone do not explain the observed health benefits of diets rich in fruits and vegetables. Phytochemical extracts from fruits and vegetable phytochemical extracts exhibit strong antioxidant and antiproliferative activities and that the major part of total antioxidant activity is from the combination of phytochemicals. Scientists have proposed that the additive and synergistic effects of phytochemicals in fruits and vegetables are responsible for these potent antioxidant and anticancer activities and that the benefit of a diet rich in a diversity of fruits and vegetables is attributed to the complex mixture of phytochemicals. This explains why no single antioxidant can replace the combination of natural phytochemicals in fruits and vegetables to achieve the health benefits. Regular consumption of fruit and vegetables is associated with reduced risks of cancer, cardiovascular disease, stroke, Alzheimer disease, cataracts, and some of the functional declines associated with aging. Prevention is a more effective strategy than is treatment of chronic diseases. Functional foods and nutraceutical products that contain significant amounts of bioactive components may provide desirable health benefits beyond basic nutrition and play important roles in the prevention of chronic diseases. The additive and synergistic effects of phytochemicals in fruit and vegetables are responsible for their potent antioxidant and anticancer activities. The benefit of a diet rich in fruit and vegetables is attributed to the complex mixture of phytochemicals present. Ingredient Review: Granny Smith & Red Delicious Apples: Procyanidins are a subclass of flavonoids found in commonly consumed foods that have attracted increasing attention due to their potential health benefits. Proanthocyanidins have antioxidant activity and they play a role in the stabilization of collagen and maintenance of elastin two critical proteins in connective tissue that support organs, joints, blood vessels, and muscle. The procyanidin content varied greatly between apple samples with the highest amounts on average observed for the Red Delicious and Granny Smith varieties. Proanthocyanidins have strong anti-oxidant properties. Foods rich in proanthocyanidins have high oxygen radical absorbance capacity, which has been linked to numerous health benefits such as weight management, cell health, and cardiovascular health.[28] Scientists continue to research the relevance of proanthocyanidins' strong anti-oxidant properties in vivo for such applications as cancer prevention and cardiovascular health.

Concord Grape Juice: Concord grape juice is a rich source of phenolic antioxidants. Studies suggest regular consumption of Concord grape juice benefited immunity. Preliminary findings suggest that supplementation with Concord grape juice may enhance cognitive function for older adults with early memory decline. Many of the flavonoids found in grapes and grape products such as juice or wine have been known to exert antioxidant, antiinflammatory, platelet inhibitory and arterial relaxing effects either in vitro, in animal studies and in human trials. Daily consumption of Concord grape juice attenuates hypercholesterolemia-enhanced platelet aggregation, blood pressure, total serum cholesterol and development of atheroma in rabbits. Consuming Concord grape juice, which is high in polyphenolic compounds, may favorably affect blood pressure in hypertensive individuals. Concord Grape Juice flavonoids are potent antioxidants that may protect against oxidative stress and reduce the risk of free radical damage and chronic diseases. Citations: 1.

Cranberry: Cranberries, high in polyphenols, have been associated with several cardiovascular health benefits. In a recent clinical study, Cranberry juice significantly increased plasma antioxidant capacity and significantly reduced lipid oxidation and increased plasma antioxidant capacity in women with metabolic syndrome. Cranberries are a source of polyphenol antioxidants, phytochemicals under active research for possible benefits to the cardiovascular system and immune system, and as anti-cancer agents. They are abundant food sources of flavonoids such as proanthocyanidins, flavonols and quercetin. These compounds have shown possible activity as anti-cancer agents in vitro. Citations: 1.

Ginger: Ginger is a rich source of powerfully beneficial plant chemicals and antioxidants. It has been claimed to decrease the pain from arthritis, though studies have been inconsistent. It may also have blood thinning and cholesterol lowering properties that may make it useful for treating heart disease. Preliminary research also indicates that nine compounds found in ginger may bind to human serotonin receptors, possibly helping to affect anxiety and motion sickness and pre-operative nausea. Ginger supplementation in chickens has been used to antioxidant status and enhanced dietary oxidation stability in a dose-dependent manner. A number of preclinical investigations with a wide variety of assay systems and carcinogens have shown that ginger and its compounds possess chemopreventive and antineoplastic effects. The cancer preventive activities of ginger are supposed to be mainly due to free radical scavenging, antioxidant pathways, alteration of gene expressions, and induction of apoptosis, all of which contribute towards decrease in tumor initiation, promotion, and progression.

Raspberry: Raspberries contain significant amounts of polyphenol antioxidants such as anthocyanin pigments linked to potential health protection against several human diseases. Approximately 50% of the antioxidant effect of raspberries is caused by a unique antioxidant called ellagitannins. These you find in small doses in strawberries and practically nowhere else. Animal studies have shown that raspberries can help to prevent the development of early atherosclerosis, with the underlying mechanisms related to improved antioxidant status and serum lipid profiles.

Blackberry: Blackberries rank highly among fruits for antioxidant strength, particularly due to their dense contents of polyphenolic compounds, such as ellagic acid, tannins, quercetin, gallic acid, anthocyanins and cyanidins. Blackberries are packed with polyphenols helping to prevent cancer and heart disease. Blackberries are filled with anthocyanins (antioxidants which give blackberries their deep purple color) which help in memory retention and the risk of hypertension. They contain phytoestrogens (plant estrogens), a compound believed to play a vital role in preventing breast and cervical cancer. Citation 1.

Carrot: Carrots are a rich source of carotenoids, and are a rich source of bioavailable beta-carotene. The availability of high carotene carrots could readily increase consumption of beta-carotene and potentially impact the vitamin A status of those individuals who are deficient or at risk of depletion. Antioxidant nutrients in carrots are believed to explain many of the cardioprotective benefits provided by these root vegetables. The many different kinds of carrot antioxidants are most likely to work together and provide us with cardiovascular benefits that we could not obtain from any of these antioxidants alone if they were split apart and consumed individually, in isolation from each other.

Lemon: Phytochemicals in lemon have shown mechanistic effects relevant to the pathological targets in dementia are discussed, with an emphasis on those showing positive clinical trial evidence. Phytochemical compounds in lemon also have strong antibacterial, antiviral, and immune-boosting powers. They have potential antiinflammatory properties as well. Limonins found in lemon have also demonstrated potential anti-inflammatory, cholesterol-lowering and anti-cancer effects which are benig evaluated in further clinical studies. Citation 1.

Blueberry: Much research has shown that blueberries provide health benefits in the areas of anti-aging, antioxidant action, and disease prevention, treatment of urinary tract infection, improving eyesight and controlling cholesterol. Blueberries are powerful antioxidants. Anthocyanin, which is the pigment that makes the blueberry blue, is the key antioxidant responsible for these benefits. Researchers believe that the phytochemicals in blueberries may reduce inflammatory processes in tissues by increasing cells membranes ability to allow vital nutrients and chemical signals to pass in and out of the cell. Among all fruits, berries have shown substantial cardio-protective benefits due to their high polyphenol content.

Asparagus: Asparagus contains a unique combination of anti-inflammatory nutrients. Among these antiinflammatory nutrients are asparagus saponins, including asparanin A, sarsasapogenin, protodioscin, and diosgenin. Other anti-inflammatory nutrients in asparagus include the flavonoids quercetin, rutin, kaempferol and isorhamnetin. It also contains a valuable amount of the antioxidant glutathione (GSH). GSH is one of the body's best-studied antioxidants. Citations: 1. Demirkol O, Adams C, Ercal N. (2004) Biologically important thiols in various vegetables and fruits.

These substances found in prunes and plums are classified as phenols, and their function as antioxidants has been well documented. They are especially good at neutralizing a particularly dangerous oxygen radical called superoxide anion radical, and they have also been shown to help prevent oxygen-based damage to fats. These substances found in prunes and plums are classified as phenols, and their function as antioxidants has been well documented. These damage-preventing substances are particularly effective in neutralizing a particularly dangerous oxygen radical called superoxide anion radical, and they have also been shown to help prevent oxygen-based damage to fats. Since our cell membranes, brain cells and molecules such as cholesterol are largely composed of fats, preventing free radical damage to fats is no small benefit. The ability of prunes to fight free radicals is boosted by beta-carotene. Beta-carotene acts as a fatsoluble antioxidant, eliminating free radicals that would otherwise cause a lot of damage to our cells and cell membranes. Prunes have also been studied for their role in controlling high blood pressure. Citations: 1. Stacewicz-Sapuntzakis M, Bowen PE, Hussain EA, Damayanti-Wood BI, Farnsworth NR.

Biofactors. 21(1-4): 309-13. Cinnamon: Cinnamon contains an array of powerful phytochemicals. The main phytochemical in cinnamon is cinnamaldehyde, a compound that has antimicrobial activity. Cinnamaldehyde can destroy viruses, bacteria and fungi. The cinnamalydehyde in cinnamon also inhibits inflammatory enzymes and slows or halts the inflammatory cascade in the body. Other phytochemicals in cinnamon include cinnamyl acetate, cinnamyl alcohol, limonene, alpha-terpineol, lutein, zeaxanthin, tannins and eugenol. Some research has found that a particular type of cinnamon, cassia cinnamon, may lower blood sugar in people with diabetes. Laboratory studies have found that cinnamon may reduce inflammation, have antioxidant effects, and fight bacteria. A study conducted in 2007 and published in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry suggests that specific plant terpenoids contained within cinnamon have potent antiviral properties. Pharmacological experiments suggest that the cinnamon-derived dietary factor cinnamic aldehyde (cinnamaldehyde) activates the Nrf2-dependent antioxidant response in human epithelial colon cells and may therefore represent an experimental chemopreventive dietary factor.
