Unlike other antioxidants, Essential Blend Antioxidant:

• Vitamin A – Best known for promoting healthy eyesight, vitamin A also helps keep the skin, mucous membranes, and other surface linings healthy so that bacteria and viruses can’t get into the body. It also enhances the infection-fighting actions of white blood cells (lymphocytes).
• Vitamin C (Ester-C^® as calcium ascorbate) – See below.
• Vitamin D3 – Also known as calciferol, vitamin D3 is the most active form of vitamin D as well as the most absorbable form. In the body, D3 converts to a hormone to allow calcium to be absorbed by the body and is, therefore, essential for strong bones.
• Vitamin E – A highly effective antioxidant on its own, vitamin E becomes much more effective when combined with vitamin C. Its combined powers destroy the free radicals that can lead to chronic conditions.

• Natural, non-acidic Ester-C (as calcium ascorbate) is easier on the stomach.
• More readily absorbed and used by the body to protect the immune system, heart, joints, skin, eyes, and more.
• Has natural vitamin C metabolites that helps it work better than ordinary vitamin C.
• Includes calcium and other essential minerals.
• Free of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and animal by-products.

• Has been shown to have up to 33 times more anthocyanins—thought to account for the low incidence of heart disease in France, despite high rates of smoking and a diet high in saturated fat—than red wine grapes.
• Packs powerful nutrients—including vitamins B1, B2, B3, C, E, phosphorous, calcium, potassium, fiber, protein, essential fatty acids, and more—into each berry.
• Comes from the acai berry found only in Brazil.
• Ratio of fatty acids is similar to that of olive oil—thought to account for the low incidence of heart disease in the Mediterranean.
• Helps regulate cholesterol, increase vitality, boost immunity, support cardiovascular health, and more.

• Thought to be the richest source of xanthones in the world
  • Xanthones help support cardiovascular health, strengthen immune function, promote joint flexibility, reduce inflammation, and stabilize allergies.
  • Comes primarily from the fruit of trees found in Southeast Asia, and used as a traditional remedy for diarrhea, infection, and wounds.

• Lycopene – The most abundant carotenoid in the U.S., lycopene—found in the red color of tomatoes—is a more potent destroyer of free radicals than other major carotenoids including beta-carotene.
• Quercetin – A building block for other flavonoids, quercetin helps fend off free radicals to fight a wide range of disorders affecting the heart, lungs, eyes, bones, and more.
• Hesperidin – A flavonoid found in citrus fruits, hesperidin helps fight diseases caused by free radical damage to the blood vessels and lymph system by strengthening the walls of blood vessels.
• Green tea extract – A well-established source of healing antioxidants, green tea extract contains epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a high-powered antioxidant that offers 25-100 times more potency than vitamins C and E. Green tea extract may help promote cardiovascular function, balance cholesterol levels, maintain blood pressure, promote longevity, and support healthy teeth and gums.
• Grape seed extract – Another potent antioxidant considered more powerful than vitamins C and E, grape seed extract helps improve blood circulation and strengthen blood vessels—thought to benefit those with chronic conditions.

• Pomegranate extract – May contain almost three times the total antioxidant power of green tea or red wine.
• Blueberry leaf extract – Has more disease-fighting, age-defying antioxidants than any other fruit or vegetable—which likely comes from its anthocyanins, the substances that give blueberries their color.
• Turmeric extract – Contains a compound called curcumin which is thought to be as powerful an antioxidant as vitamins C and E and beta-carotene.
• Cranberry extract – Known to help reduce urinary tract infections, cranberries also contain rich stores of disease-fighting antioxidants.
