Super Antioxidants

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.
