Food supplement of vitamins ACE

Food supplement of vitamins ACE with fermented papaya load, acts favorably on the complex of physiological functions relating to the body's natural defenses, recommended to strengthen the immune system and prevent the symptoms of oxidative stress and premature aging.

Klamath seaweed
Aphanizomenon flos aque is a blue-green microalgae that grows in Upper Klamath Lake. Recent studies have confirmed that it is a food rich in Vitamins, Minerals, Omega 3 and Omega 6 essential fatty acids in the optimal proportion, high quantities of beta-carotene, amino acids, phycocyanins, phenylethylamine and chlorophyll. Useful for its antioxidant properties. It stimulates the immune system. It is an excellent source of phycocyanins and thanks to its phenylethylamine content it can have highly positive effects on all mood and memory problems. Klamath has also shown that it can quickly normalize fat metabolism, significantly reducing cholesterol and triglycerides and normalizing blood sugar.

Load up fermented papaya
It improves the physical condition and is also very useful for its ability to stimulate the immune system, increasing the body's defenses against pathogenic microorganisms. Helps to support the body in difficult moments. The fermented papaya extract is obtained by subjecting the entire ripe but still green fruit to a fermentation process with yeast, the process lasts several months and is carried out under controlled conditions. This patented process serves to enrich the raw material with beneficial substances, which is subsequently dried and ready for use.

C vitamin
It increases the immune defenses by helping the body to defend itself from viral attacks, it is important for growth as it strengthens bones and teeth, helps wound healing, adjuvant against anemia because it improves iron absorption. It also has an important antioxidant action, so it fights the formation of free radicals. It is important to note that vitamin C (even more than others) is a substance that is easily destroyed during cooking, food storage (even in the refrigerator), exposure of this to air and light, as well as our organism. eliminates it daily through urine and sweat, therefore, while serious deficiencies are rare in Western countries, hypovitaminosis can be frequent if fresh fruit and vegetables are lacking or scarce in the diet or in particular conditions of the organism that require of an increase in the daily dose of vitamin C (for example smoking that destroys it).

Aloe vera
It has shown important beneficial actions in disorders of the gastrointestinal system, can contribute to the improvement of the typical symptoms of peptic ulcer, allows a control of intestinal secretions and enzymatic juices, buffers the excess acidity of the stomach, improves the functions of the pancreas. Aloe vera juice contains active ingredients that have been shown to have antiviral and antibacterial activities. Immune stimulating activity thanks to the polysaccharide content present in it.

Grape seed extract (Vitis vinifera)
The seeds of red grapes (Vitis vinifera) contain Proanthocyanidins, molecules that have an interesting property: they are radical scavengers, capable, that is, of "capturing" free radicals neutralizing them and making them no longer harmful to the cells of the our body.

Pycnogenol (extracted from Maritime Pine Cortex)
It has shown antioxidant properties in fighting free radicals, preventing damage to the cell membrane and DNA and preventing lipid peroxidation. The compounds present in Pycnogenol belong to the chemical family of polyphenols and in particular to the class of flavonoids. These compounds have powerful antioxidant activity. It has an antioxidant effect against superoxide anion, inhibits lipid peroxidation, inhibits the enzyme xanthine oxidase (which forms the superoxide anion). They strengthen the capillaries and are used as adjuvants for peripheral venous insufficiency, capillary fragility, prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, stimulation of the immune system.

Lycopene
It is one of the main carotenoids, and is contained almost exclusively in tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum). Of all known carotenoids, Lycopene possesses the highest antioxidant capacity known.

Vitamin E
Antioxidant vitamin par excellence, it is one of the most active substances against free radicals deriving from oxygen (therefore also the superoxide anion). It improves the immune system. Vitamin E and Vitamin C combined together protect the hydrophilic and lipophilic components of the skin, reducing the damage induced by UVA, UVB.

Vitamin A
It is useful for the proper functioning of sight and therefore prevents many ailments, to fight different types of infections in particular of the respiratory system, to help keep the skin and mucous membranes healthy, to help prevent cardiovascular diseases, collaborates in the good functioning of the immune system and is important during growth stages because it helps to have healthy teeth and strong bones.

Selenium proteinated
Selenium is the mineral contained in Glutathione peroxidase, the body's most important enzyme in the defense against free radicals. Selenium catalyzes H2O2 + H2 (2 H2O) reaction. It helps to increase the immune defenses, by increasing the production of antibodies, and by inhibiting the abnormal cell growth and cancer. It protects against ultraviolet rays, carries out a protective action against mercury, cadmium, aluminum and arsenic intoxication. Acts as an antioxidant in association with vitamin E, preserving tissue elasticity, slowing the aging process and protecting against many degenerative diseases.
