Blueberry: Potent Antiageing
Dear Friends
Senescence is the technical word for aging. It is the condition or process of deterioration with age- a loss of a cell’s power of division and growth. The question is, What does healthy ageing look like?
We certainly can see unhealthy ageing all around us- people ridden with chronic degenerative diseases. Ageing is among the greatest known risk factors for most human diseases: of the roughly 150,000 people who die each day across the globe, about two thirds die from age-related causes (Dillin et al., 2014).
So, what methods can be used today to support healthy ageing? An ageing where our bodies may be slowing down but where our bodily systems are still functioning well. How for example can we keep our brain sharp, even to the very end of our life?
Research suggests that the polyphenolic compounds found in fruits, such as blueberries, may exert protection against Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s diseases; that they do indeed provide benefits for cognitive health, protection, and restoration (Joseph et al., 2007).
Spencer’s (2010) research, Beyond antioxidants: the cellular and molecular interactions of flavonoids and how these underpin their actions on the brain, explores the potential inhibitory or stimulatory actions of flavonoids within three sytems: The first, through their interactions with important neuronal and glial signaling cascades in the brain; second, through an ability to improve peripheral and cerebral blood flow and trigger angiogenesis and neurogenensis in the hippocampus; third, by their capacity to directly react with and scavenge neurotoxic species and pro-inflammatory agents produced in the brain as a result of both normal and abnormal brain senenscence.
Blueberry Extract is the most powerful blueberry extract on the market, our 100% North American blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum) provides a comprehensive profile of anthocyanins. Scientists describe blueberries as agents of neuro-regeneration. Research studies show that blueberry and blueberry extract offer a potent and effective brain food to support cognition, memory, and the general health of our nervous system.

Phyto Power is formulated to support DNA and cellular integrity. A wildcrafted wonder from remote, pure, and fertile regions of Alaska, Phyto Power is filled with biologically high actives, creating a phenolic powerhouse. Blueberries, rose hip, and dandelion are shown in research to help maintain cellular integrity, suppressing or interfering with oncogenic transformation, bolstering antioxidant and anti-inflammatory defenses, and contributing significant re-generative health benefits.
