Red Superfood (Kiwi/straw)

● Supports vision health, skin health, immune health, and increases antioxidant support (182, 183).

● Supports antioxidant function via decreased inflammatory cytokines (inflammation), decreased reactive oxygen species, and increased L-glutathione production (master antioxidant) (182,183)

● Supports visual health via increased amounts of plasma vitamin A in macular (eye) tissues (182,183).

● May reduce DNA damage in lymphocytes (immune cells) of individuals who smoke (315).

● Supports immune health, antioxidant support, digestive support (21).

● Supports suppression of lipid accumulation (fat build up) in adipocytes (fat cells) (21).

● Increases total antioxidant capacity by increasing enzymes associated with decreasing reactive oxygen species (superoxide dismutase) (22).

● Increases natural production of master antioxidant L-Glutathione (2).

● Supports immune, cardiovascular, skin, cognitive, fat burning, and digestive health (97, 98).

● Supports immune health via increased oxidant, free radical scavenging, and fueling neutrophilic (immune cell) activity in chemotaxis, phagocytosis, and microbial killing (97,98).

● Supports fat burning by increasing carnitine biosynthesis (molecule required for mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation) (97,98).

● Supports accelerate bone healing after a fracture, increase type I collagen synthesis, and reduce oxidative stress (inflammation) (98).

● Supports reduced DNA damage in the kidney, liver, and bone marrow (318).

● Supports immune health, antioxidant support, digestive support (21).

● Supports suppression of lipid accumulation (fat build up) in adipocytes (fat cells) (21).

● Increases total antioxidant capacity by increasing enzymes associated with decreasing reactive oxygen species (superoxide dismutase) (22).

● Increases natural production of master antioxidant L-Glutathione (2).

● Supports immune health, antioxidant function, and cardiovascular health.

● Supports cardiovascular health via reduced atherosclerotic lesions (319).

● Supports immune health and antioxidant function via levels of naturally occurring zinc, fiber, magnesium (319).

● Supports reduced blood pressure, increased nitric oxide production, immune health, blood sugar regulation, prostate health, gut health and aids as an antimicrobial compound (170).

● Supports prostate health via high polyphenolic antioxidant levels (three times the antioxidant activity of green tea) that protect the prostate gland from inflammation (170).

● Supports reduced blood pressure via increased nitric oxide production, increased cardiac output (blood flow), and reduced cholesterol levels (170.

● Supports digestive health via combating inflammatory bowel disease (171).

● Supports immune health via reduced inflammatory cytokines (markers of inflammation) throughout the body (171).

● Supports cardiovascular health, immune health, hydration levels, and improves aerobic exercise performance (324).

● Supports cardiovascular health via increased nitric oxide production (324).

● Supports aerobic exercise performance via reduced muscular fatigue, improved cellular hydration, and improved lactic acid buffering capability (324).

● Supports cardiovascular, immune health, reduced blood pressure, and optimizes exercise performance (87).

● High in antioxidants such as ascorbic acid, carotenoids, phenolic acids, flavonoids, polyphenols, and anti-inflammatory compounds (betalains) (87).

● Betalains have been shown to inhibit inflammatory pathways (Nuclear Factor-Kappa B “NF-κB”) that manifest in a plethora of chronic diseases (87).

● Increases nitric oxide production optimizing healthy blood pressure and enhanced cardiovascular output during exercise (87).

● Beetroot extract exemplifies anti-carcinogenic activity by inhibiting cancer cell growth mechanisms (cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and tumorigenesis) (87).

● Supports cardiovascular health, digestive health, healthy bowel movements, and joint health (323).

● Supports cardiovascular health via antihypertensive action, antiatherogenic effects, reduced cholesterol, reduced arterial (blood vessel) inflammation, high amounts of omega 3 fatty acids, and an inhibition of arrhythmias (323).

● Supports immune health via high amounts of the antioxidant lignan secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (323).

● Supports digestive health via its high fiber content have been implicated primarily in these beneficial cardiovascular actions (323).

● Supports immune health via high levels of antioxidants, vitamin C, and polyphenols (320).

● Supports recovery from exercise via reduced muscle damage (320).

● Supports immune health and antioxidant function (325).

● Supports immune health via reduced oxidative damage to lipids and reduced inflammatory markers (TNF-α, IL-1β, RAGE and NFκB) (325).

● Supports antioxidant function via high concentration of carotenoids and polyphenols (325).

● Supports immune health and digestion.

● Supports digestive health via enzymatic support of protein digestion.
