LifeMap Ingredients: AC-11 (Uncaria Tomentosa)

AC-11 is a proprietary, water-soluble extract of Uncaria tomentosa, a herb that grows in the Amazon rain forest and has been used as a healing plant by the native Indians of South America for over 2000 years. Now AC-11 is at he forefront of a new generation of supplements focused on maintaining gene health.

AC-11 helps maintain DNA health. It protects DNA against oxidation and naturally advances the repair and rebuilding of DNA damage caused by free radicals. It is thought that cells are prone to up to 10,000 oxidation attacks per day and whilst antioxidants are important in neutralizing free radicals it is likely that some cellular damage will still occur. AC-11 helps to increase DNA repair enzymes that are necessary when this type of damage occurs, thereby ensuring that healthy genes are maintained.

LifeMap Ingredients: Blueberry

The American blueberry has long been recognized for its flavor, nutrition, and health benefits. Early settlers valued the blueberry as a major ingredient in foods and medicines. They ate blueberries off the bush and added them to soups, stews, and other foods. Native Americans in colonial times gathered blueberries for winter storage. They dried the fruit and combined it with cornmeal, honey, and water to make a delicate pudding known as “Sautauthig.” The juice of blueberries was also used for medicinal purposes: to treat coughs, as a relaxant during childbirth, and to combat the “runs” thanks to a substance contained in the berries called anthocyanin. This substance has mild antibiotic properties, especially against intestinal bacteria that cause diarrhea.

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Agriculture Human Nutrition Center have found that blueberries rank No. 1 in antioxidant benefits, compared to 40 other fresh fruits and vegetables. Antioxidants help neutralize harmful “free radicals” that can lead to cancer and other age-related diseases. The total antioxidant capacity of blueberries (24 mcgmol Trolox equivalents per gram) is twice that of spinach and three times that of oranges. This extraordinary fruit is also rich in pectin, a soluble fiber that has been shown in several research studies to be effective in lowering cholesterol.

LifeMap Ingredients: Acai Berry

Some of the major benefits of the acai berry are thought to include its strong heart health benefits. The acai berry is known to be a rich source anthocyanins. These anthocyanins are the same compounds thought to give red wine its health benefits, but acai berries may contain even higher concentrations of these healthy chemicals than wine.

The acai berry is also a rich source of protein and dietary fiber, in addition to high levels of both omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids, thought to have a protective effect on the heart and cardiovascular system. The omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids contained in the acai berry may also play a role in lowering levels of cholesterol in the blood.

In addition to these important benefits, the acai berry is thought to play a vital role in slowing down the aging process. In health food circles, the acai berry is known as one of the most powerful of the anti-aging superfoods. It is thought that this anti-aging effect is a combination of the high levels of anthocyanins and the strong antioxidant vitamin content the fruit contains. In fact, the acai berry is known to contain ten times as many antioxidant vitamins as grapes and twice as many as blueberries.

LifeMap Ingredients: Resveratrol

Resveratrol has been proven to be Beneficial in:
* Anti-Aging (Slows down aging in animals & humans)
* More Endurance
* Fights against Heart Attacks & Strokes
* Fights Free Radicals (that can damage cells & cause -premature aging -cancer -brain degeneration)

Researchers at Harvard Medical School believe they have discovered the universal cause of aging in all animals. As animals age (including humans) their cell's DNA becomes damaged. This damage decreases their cell's ability to regulate which genes are turned on and off. If the wrong genes are switched on, this can harm the cell. Helping to solve this problem, sirtuins help ensure that the the incorrect genes remain switched off. Sirtuins also repair the damaged DNA. Resveratrol is a proven activator of sirtuins in animals and humans.

Red wine is a Great source of Resveratrol, however... What is the exact amount You need?
