Adaptogen Drink - Energy Drink - Antioxidants

http://www.ClaimWellness.com

When deciding on a nutrition drink or juice, it’s all about the adaptogens. Don’t forget about the free radicals that the adaptogens can fight to help the body to minimize disease, toxin build up and the aging process. Adaptgens also help the body in absorbing nutrients. Free radicals are molecules that are produced in disease states such as stress, diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, cancer, high cortisol states, and many more. Adaptogens are the neutralizers of these free radicals. Free radicals can speed up the aging process. Smoking and alcohol abuse can also increase free radical production.

What are Antioxidants?

Antioxidants can be used interchangeably with adaptogens. All adpatogens are usually antioxidants. Some adaptogens include vitamins A, C and E. Without getting into the oxidizing process of chemistry, antioxidants are fighters or neutralizers of free radicals. This is probably why increased vitamin C intake is associtated with lower rates of certain cancers. Other sources of antioxidants include fruits and vegetables. Individuals who eat multiple servings of fruits and vegetables on a daily basis usually have lower risks of cancer. Finally antioxidants help the body to absorb nutrients and assist enzymes in multiple processes of the body.

What are Free Radicals?

Free radicals are substances in the body that a have an odd number of electrons (bad memories of chemistry for some reading this). They can be very damaging to cells including the DNA or genes of the cells.

Tunguska Blast Juice - What is It?

There are many juices on the market. I am especially pleased with a juice or nutrition drink called Tunguska blast. This juice has 10 all natural plant adaptogens. This propretary blend of adaptogens is made by the company Cyberwize. It imparts energy, stamina while boosting the immune system. A sample of these adaptogens are Eleuthero root, Licorice root, Chinese Magnolia, and Golden root. Sorbus Aucuparia is an adaptogen in Tunguska Blast juice that can enhance the body’s ability to prevent vitamin C deficiency. Eleutherococcus supports better oxygen utilization by muscles. It can also support the body in promoting sleep. Rhaponticum Carthamoides can further enhance physical performance by supporting the increase in muscle mass.

Finally

Adaptogens are critical in supporting the body’s systems: stamina, energy, boosting the immune system, and fighting toxins in the body that promote disease, cellular damage, DNA damage, and aging. Whether with diet or dietary supplements, choose foods and supplements rich in adaptogens.

Natural polysaccharide peptides are vital proteins attached to the necessary and natural sugars your body needs to perform key functions. Some of these functions include neuron (nerve cell) function to help with memory, nerve to nerve communication, and other vital brain and nervous system functions, muscle function, digestion, stabilizing blood sugar, clearing the body of toxins.

Gift #1: Supplements rich in at least 5 Adaptogens

Adaptogens are herbal or plant substances that help or support the different systems of the body. For example, they may support the immune and nervous systems. They may also help the body to adapt to physical and mental stress or internal and external stressors. Adaptogens also help to neutralize free radicals. Free radicals are charged particles your body generates in disease states (e.g. high blood pressure, obesity, atherosclerosis, cancer, etc.) and stress states. Free radicals promote aging and tissue damage in blood vessels and organs.

Gift #2: Whole Food Vitamins

If quality and natural matters to you then make sure the source of your vitamins is whole foods. Read the label to see if you have a synthetic (made up in lab) vitamin. If it is a whole food vitamin then the company will usually be proud to advertise as such and list the source of the vitamin. For example, the label should say how much vitamin A, percentage of RDA, and the source such as carrots. Whole food vitamins are more expensive but more natural to the body to use. Most people need a quality vitamin since in this fast paced society, most do not eat well balanced meals low in animal protein and high in fruits, nuts and vegetables.

Gift #3: Probiotic Supplements with at least 4 Probiotics

An optimally functioning colon may have over 100 billion friendly bacteria per millimeter surface area. These good or friendly bacteria are called probiotics. Probiotics help the body to: support the immune system; fight cancer causing agents; discard old fecal matter; decrease inflammation in the colon; make certain vitamins (vitamin K and some B vitamins); protect against food poisoning; and fight bad bacteria, fungi, and viruses.

Probiotics can be significantly decreased in our colon because of many everyday factors. Some of these factors include: stress, carbonated beverages, constipation, antibiotics in our food supply, chlorine in our water supply, smoking, alcohol, and drugs such as certain nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDS), laxatives, antibiotics (overuse) and birth control pills.

You should start taking probiotics today. With the daily assault on good bacteria, bad bacteria are waiting to move into the space left by good bacteria. Consider your colon an apartment building for bacterial tenants. You can either have good tenants or bad tenants. The more you are depleted of those good bacterial tenants, the more bad ones will move in.

Gift #4: Vital Digestion Enzymes

Enzymes are proteins that help to break down nutrients and help to facilitate physiologic processes in the body. Without enzymes our bodies could not absorb the vital nutrients and would cease all physiologic functions. Toxin build up and a diet rich in animal protein and processed foods help to deplete these vital enzymes. High protein drinks or shakes may tax the kidneys and deplete enzymes. So if you are taking high protein nutrition drinks or shakes, you may need to take an enzyme product rich in proteases (enzymes that break down protein).

Gift #5: PolySaccharide Peptide (Glyco-Protein) Nutritional Supplement

Natural polysaccharide peptides are vital proteins attached to the necessary and natural sugars your body needs to perform key functions. Some of these functions include neuron (nerve cell) function to help with memory, nerve to nerve communication, and other vital brain and nervous system functions, muscle function, digestion, stabilizing blood sugar, clearing the body of toxins.
