Berries are the Highest Scoring Food on the Antioxidant Scale
Our bodies show signs of aging due to the amount of oxidation they experience. Aging may be the result of oxidation to the central nervous system. Over time, there will be an increase in age-associated diseases which involve the nervous system, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.
Several studies suggest that foods can reduce this oxidation due to their antioxidant activity. Memory impairment and difficulties in concentration can be reduced with fruits and vegetables high in flavonoids and antioxidants.
James Joseph, Ph.D., lead scientist at the Laboratory of Neuroscience of the USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University, found astonishing results with spinach and berries. He found that diets supplemented with either spinach, strawberries or blueberries can prevent declines in motor learning and memory in aged animals. All three supplements--blueberries, strawberries and spinach--improved short-term memory. In addition, blueberries improved balance and coordination.
The Natural Safeguard Against Stroke,
Heart Disease And Cancer
Flavonoids are phytochemicals and strong antioxidants. The process of heart disease is thought to be due to free radical damage. Flavonoids can destroy the two most dangerous types of free radicals and may actually help naturally prevent heart disease since flavonoids can lower blood cholesterol.
Reduce Risk of Stroke by 31%
One study showed that the highest fruit and vegetable eaters were found to have a 31% lower risk of stroke. The women had almost 6 servings per day and the men about 5 servings. Each additional serving per day cut their risk by 6%. The key components of fruits and vegetables that were responsible for reducing the risk of stroke were flavonoids, potassium, folate and fiber, which berries have in high amounts.
Berries are the Edible Superstars That Act as a Shield of Armor Against Disease, Illness and Damage to Your Health Caused by Free Radicals
Our formula includes the nutrients of over 20 berries acquired through a new extraction process that exponentially accelerates the antioxidant values. With an ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity, which is the standard for measuring the potency of antioxidants in foods) value of no less than 5,000, this “berry powerful” addition to Life-Factors™ provides nature's best solution to free radical damage.
Berries May Protect Against Certain Cancers, Heart Disease and Aging
Specific fruits and vegetables have been showcased as superior health protectors. Brightly colored berries are edible superstars that may protect against certain cancers, heart disease and aging. Berries have been given this high status because of the vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber and phytochemicals they contain.
Phytochemicals are plant substances that promote health and prevent chronic disease. Some of these phytochemicals are antioxidants, such as flavonoids, quercetin, anthocyanins and ellagic acid.
Berries Neutralize Free Radicals
and Prevent Cell Damage
Exposure to our environment causes our bodies to form free radicals. When free radicals attack the cell membranes, the development of heart disease begins. When free radicals injure the cellular DNA, it initiates cancer. A free radical assault is called oxidation since it reacts with oxygen.
Antioxidants fight against oxidation. They neutralize the free radicals and prevent cell damage. Concentrated sources of antioxidants, such as berries, will have the greatest impact on the antioxidant fighting capacity in the body.
Berries are the Highest Scoring Food on the Antioxidant Scale
Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) is a test that measures the total antioxidant score of foods.
Four berries topped the ORAC chart for 10 fresh fruits tested. Blueberries, blackberries, strawberries and raspberries showed superior ORAC scores.
Blue berries and blackberries even beat the top ORAC vegetable, kale, and strawberries beat the second highest ORAC vegetable, spinach.
All four berries won over the eight other vegetables tested for ORAC value, showing their superiority as antioxidant fighters.
