perfect food". It contains over 18 Amino Acids, high
in vitamins, minerals, enzymes and co-enzymes. Athletes
use it to increase muscular vigor, energy and stamina.

BEE PROPOLIS
Is a waxy substance collected by honey bees which
contains phytotonizides. Phytotnzides are believed to
contain immunity factors, which when used internally,
stimulates the body and gives it a natural resistance to
diseases ( a natural antibiotic). See

BIOFLAVONOIDS * HESPERIDIN * RUTIN * QUERCETIN
IMPORTANCE: They are vital in their ability to
increase the strength of the capillaries (blood vessels)
and to regulate their permeability. They assist Vitamin C
in keeping collagen, the intercellular "cement"
in healthy condition; are essential for the proper
absorption and use of vitamin C; prevents Vitamin C from
being destroyed in the body by oxidation; beneficial in
hypertension; helps hemorrhages and ruptures in the
capillaries and connective tissues and builds a protective
barrier against infections. Quercetin is a very highly
concentrated form of Bioflavonoids derived from citrus
fruit
DEFICIENCY SYMPTOMS: May result in varicose
veins, tendency to bruise and bleed easily, appearance of
purplish spots on the skin. See

B-SITOSTEROL
It is derived from many plants and cereal grasses;
commonly found in rye germ oil. It has the ability to
emulsify fats; and is found to be 30 times more potent
than choline when it comes to the breaking down of
cholesterol deposits. See
References
GRAPE SEED EXTRACT
Grape seed extract is very similar to pine bark extract
as it contains a unique type of bioflavonoids called
proanthocyanidins, which are synergistic with vitamin C,
that is, they greatly enhance the activity of Vitamin C.
In fact, some researchers believe that grape seed extract
helps vitamin C enter cells, thus strengthening the cell
membranes and protecting the cells from oxidative damage.

L-CARNITINE
A "free amino acid" which has been found to
improve fat metabolism in the heart and other organs and
tissues, reduces Triglyceride and cholesterol levels,
improves heart muscle tolerance, prevents irregular
heartbeat and angina, provides more energy for the heart
and helps lower blood pressure. See
References
LECITHIN
Contains Choline & Inositol which are essential for
the breakdown of fats and cholesterol. It helps prevent
arterial congestion, helps distribute bodyweight,
increases immunity to virus infections, cleans the liver
and purifies the kidneys. See

OMEGA 3 FATTY ACIDS
EPA & DHA which are present in fish body oils have
the potential for improving the health of cardio-vascular
system. Medical reports show that as the amount of
EPA in the diet increases, the risk of coronary heart
disease decreases. In a nutshell, EPA from fish oils
lowers serum cholesterol & triglyceride levels, make
your blood less viscous, thinner & less sticky, less
prone to clump together. Diets of Eskimo and coastal
Japanese are rich in the Omega 3 fatty acids, EPA &
DHA. Their death rate from heart attacks is much
lower when compared to the Western man. DHA is a major
component of the brain and retina, and has a possible role
in nerve transmission. Research has shown that many
migraine suffers have experienced some relief from
consuming Fatty Acids. See

PHOSPHATIDYL CHOLINE
The most significant component of lecithin. it
emulsifies and breaks down fat deposits in the body, which
make it helpful in the prevention of arteriosclerosis,
heart disease, gallstones and liver problems. Medical
studies have also shown that PHOSPHATIDYL Choline is
beneficial in neurological disorders, memory loss and
depression. Phosphatidyl Choline is 3 times more potent
than lecithin. See

PYC
NOGENOL
Pycnogenol is the trade name of a commercial mixture of
bioflavonoids (catechins, phenolic acid, proan,
thocyanidins) that exhibits antioxidative activity,
according to researchers doing animal studies at the
University of Arizona. See

RNA & DNA
Is the reproductive substance found in the body which
rejuvenates cellular activity. It is often referred to as
the "essence of life" or the
"substance" which retards the aging process. See

ROYAL JELLY
The food of the Queen bee. It is a salivary secretion
