Advanced Whole Food
OPC Complex
Super Antioxidant is one of the most powerful
enzyme-active and phyto-nutrient rich whole food and
herbal antioxidant formulations available for your maximum
health and well-being containing OPC’s
(Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins).
Of all the deaths that occur in the United
States, approximately 80% result from cancer or heart
disease. Both of these diseases' development and progression
have been associated with what has come to be called
"free radical" tissue damage.
Antioxidants help protect us from free radicals which
are by-products formed in our bodies when molecules
of fat react with oxygen. Free radicals are the unstable
part of a molecule and they seek and find other molecules
to which they become attached.
It is believed that this triggers a reaction
that causes our bodies to oxidize, or in plainer terms,
we rust. Even though this is a normal metabolic process,
other sources of free radicals, such as air pollution,
pesticides, smoke and alcohol, can have similar effects.
All have been associated with over sixty degenerative
diseases including stroke, arthritis, cancer, cataracts,
Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease, varicose veins, ADD
and rheumatism. OPC's are renowned for their superior
antioxidant power and instant bioavailability, for their
antihistamine, anti-inflammatory and anti-elastase/collagenase
properties among other attributes.
They are considered 20 times more powerful
than Vitamin C and 50 times more powerful than Vitamin
E and are in many plants. Although the best known sources
of OPCs come from grape seeds and the bark of the Maritime
pine tree, it is the grape seed extract that has emerged
as the preferred source!
According to Michael T. Murray, N.D.,
a leading researcher in the field of natural medicine
in his Health Counselor Vol. 7, page 33, "The overwhelming
majority of published clinical and experimental studies
over the past 20 years have been performed on grape
seed extract....Only the OPC extracted from grape seed
is approved for medicinal use in France."
Even though grape seed extract is the
most potent of all OPCs, not all grape seed extracts
are the same. The most beneficial grape seed complex
are those which utilize a special process to bind one
part of the grape seed OPC extract with two parts of
phosphatidylcholine. This process is referred to as
the "Phytosome Process".
The result is a completely new molecule
composed of a central molecule of OPC encased by two
phosphatidylcholine molecules and offers significant
advantages over unbound OPCs. The major advantage is
improved absorption from the gastrointestinal tract
and protection from being degraded by digestion and
gut bacteria.
Another advantage is improved utilization
and incorporation into biological membranes; more OPCs
are delivered to body tissue. Once delivered to the
tissue, the bound OPCs exert much greater antioxidant
effects.
Not only does AMS’ Super Antioxidant contain
the grape seed extract utilizing the Phytosome Process,
it contains a blend of other proven antioxidant ingredients
making it one of the most powerful antioxidant products
on the market today.
