Although there is no “fountain of youth,” there are many foods and natural compounds that can help combat the consequences of normal aging, like memory loss and sagging skin. Recent research has uncovered the potential power of antioxidant compounds found in berries for fighting some of the undesirable effects of aging.

As I have before and still do, I highly recommend a whole, live food product.

Healthy Energy
When you make live, whole foods part of your daily diet, you’ll immediately start to notice some changes in how you feel. For starters, you’ll sleep better at night and awaken feeling rested and alert. You’ll find that as you go through your day you think more clearly and feel more energetic the whole day through. LiVE and ReVive don’t merely provide long-term health benefits—They deliver an immediate, noticeable change in how you feel.

•Greater Mental Clarity
•Improved Endurance
•More Restful Sleep
•Long-lasting Energy

Natural Weight Loss
One of the great advantages of LiVE and ReVive’s whole food nutrition is that your body will become accustomed to the best kind of nutrients. As a consequence, you’ll be less likely to crave snack foods and other hollow calories, less prone to the between-meal hunger pangs that seem to undermine your attempts to lose weight. Meanwhile, your digestion will improve as your body benefits from a natural cleansing process that helps your body retain only what it needs to keep you feeling fit.

•Less Hunger
•Fewer Cravings
•Improved Digestion
•Natural Cleansing

Personal Vitality
It is an established fact that the natural whole foods in LiVE help your body to function better overall. One reason for that is that live, whole foods are high in antioxidants, phytonutrients and enzymes, which means that they help reduce the negative effects of toxins that build up in your body. At the same time, however, such nutrients tend to increase oxygenation (which is good), meaning that your blood remains richer in oxygen to supply the functions of healthy cells. Many people also report that whole food nutrition helps to reduce stress and improve their overall sense of well-being.

•Reduced Stress
•Improved Circulation
•Increased Oxygenation

A recent study, presented at the National Meeting of the American Chemical Society, analyzed the effects of certain compounds found in berries1. Researchers found that antioxidant compounds from berries may activate and protect special cells within the brain (known as microglia) which help remove the buildup of toxins that can lead to memory decline.

As part of the normal aging process, microglia can become dysfunctional, either failing to do their job of “cleaning up” the brain or actually damaging healthy cells, both of which are associated with age-related cognitive decline. This new research suggests that consuming antioxidant-rich berries, including blueberries, strawberries and blackberries, may help protect the brain from the gradual buildup of harmful toxins that can affect proper cognitive function.

In addition to their brain-boosting benefits, berries may also help counter the effects of aging on the surface of the skin. A recent study published in Experimental Dermatology revealed that ellagic acid, an antioxidant compound found in various berries, may actually reverse skin damage (including wrinkles and inflammation) caused by UV-B radiation2.

Researchers used a topical preparation of ellagic acid on human skin cells and hairless mice exposed to UV-B radiation. Results showed that the application of ellagic acid to the skin prevented inflammatory response, as well as the destruction of collagen, the compound responsible for skin’s firmness and elasticity.

Another similar study analyzed the effect of antioxidant-rich bog blueberry extract on human dermal fibroblasts (skin cells) exposed to UV-B radiation3. Researchers discovered that the extract reduced collagen breakdown and inflammation in the exposed skin cells. The study author hypothesized that the anthocyanins (antioxidant compounds) found in the blueberry extract may have a protective power against UV-induced photoaging, a common cause of wrinkles.

I believe in the power of antioxidants – and this research only confirms my thoughts that a healthy diet can help make the natural aging process as smooth and graceful as possible. I recommend eating plenty of dark-skinned fruits, such as blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, cranberries, cherries and grapes, as these typically contain a higher concentration of antioxidants. I particularly recommend eating fresh fruit and/or freshly prepared fruit juice, or frozen fruit when fresh is not available. Alternatively, one may drink commercially prepared, vacuum packed fruit juice. For skin protection and preservation, I suggest looking for a facial cream or serum that is enriched with antioxidants such as resveratrol (commonly found in grape skin), vitamin C or CoQ10. To your best health always!

And I have found that using my whole live food product LiVE and ReVive are the easiest and cheapest way to get what we need into our bodies. I highly recommend that you visit http://www.mynuriche.com./connieclark and read more about this phenomenal product. You can’t do better than this.

MaxATP™ is a completely unique and refreshing clean energy blend powered by RiboCeine™ that features optimal amounts of proprietary ingredients to support an active lifestyle along with the energy and antioxidant protection . . . → Read More: Energy … Natural ATP Production in the body!]]> MAXATP for great, natural energy!!!
Purpose: To provide a comprehensive solution to the energy creation, support, and protection needs of your body at the cellular level.

MaxATP™ is a completely unique and refreshing clean energy blend powered by RiboCeine™ that features optimal amounts of proprietary ingredients to support an active lifestyle along with the energy and antioxidant protection needs of our bodies at the cellular level.

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the basic form of cellular energy for your body and is critically important to the life and health of every cell. As long as ATP is present in sufficient quantity, energy levels are maintained allowing cells and tissues to function at optimal levels. However, as we age, ATP production can become less efficient. The ATP process requires certain critical elements in order to be manufactured. Numerous vitamins and minerals support both ATP production as well as the process to release the energy stored in food as it goes through the metabolic process. ATP in our bodies is like the battery in a car. Everything in the car is dependent on the energy from the battery. When the battery power runs low, the lights in the car begin to dim and the performance of the car starts to suffer. However, when the battery power is re-charged or restored, performance returns to normal and the car functions exactly how it was designed. MaxATP provides the critical elements needed for proper ATP function and support. It includes optimal amounts of ribose (a precursor to ATP production), as well as other needed vitamins and nutrients to support natural ATP production in the cell. These fundamental building blocks of ATP ensure that your body is able to maintain optimal levels of energy for longer periods of time. Furthermore, MaxATP provides critical antioxidants needed to help protect the body from free radicals. MaxATP is powered by RiboCeine™, a breakthrough compound exclusive to Max International®, which effectively protects and delivers the fragile cysteine molecule to the cell. Cysteine is often in limited supply in the body, but is an essential component needed for the production of glutathione, the body’s master antioxidant. Glutathione is especially important due to its unique ability to protect the mitochondria within the cell, the exact location where ATP is manufactured. RiboCeine also delivers ribose, a natural compound that is critical in replenishing the body’s energy reserves.

Unique Attributes
MaxATP supports the body’s production of ATP in three (3) unique ways:
1- Fuels ATP Production*- provides the nutrients that fuel ATP production in our cells including optimal amounts of ribose. Ribose is one of the primary components needed for the production of ATP.
2- Replenishes energy and fights fatigue*- helps your body with the conversion of food into energy. Optimal amounts of ATP help you feel less fatigued.
3- Neutralizes free radicals*- only MaxATP can provide RiboCeine™ to assist your body in the production of glutathione which helps to neutralize the enormous amount of free radicals created during ATP production. MaxATP also provides other substances known to neutralize free radicals.

Product Benefits
• Fuels ATP production*
• Replenishes energy and fights fatigue*
• Neutralizes free radicals*
• Builds ATP in the heart and muscles*
• Assists with the conversion of food to energy*
• Increases vitality*
• Features RiboCeine™ to support production of glutathione to neutralize many different types of free radicals*

Supporting Ingredients
Proprietary Blend:
Ribose – an essential component in the natural creation of ATP. Your body cannot create ATP without it.
N-acetyl -L-carnitine – increases the rate at which the liver oxidizes fat therefore increasing the amount of energy available. Carnitine shuttles long chain fatty acids from the liver into the mitochondria to be metabolized.
RiboCeine™ – an exclusive product comprised of ribose and cysteine, RiboCeine effectively passes through the digestive tract and delivers the fragile cysteine molecule to the cell, enabling efficient, natural production of glutathione. The ribose compound in RiboCeine is also used by the cell as an essential component to ATP production, your body’s source of energy. This allows your body to essentially manufacture glutathione “on demand” so it is ready to defend itself from free radical damage when it needs it most.
Panax Ginseng – Panax Ginseng is ginseng from Asia and is a known adaptogen to support an increased flow of steady energy throughout the day.
Green Tea Extract – is known to have high antioxidant activity and together with RiboCeine, promotes a critical step in the production of glutathione. It also provides the natural source of caffeine which acts as a natural metabolic enhancer and supports mental alertness.
Rhodiola Rosea – an adaptogen shown to reduce symptoms of fatigue and improve mental performance.
Quercetin – a flavonoid antioxidant known to support energy levels.
CoQ10 – a powerful endogenous (made naturally in the body) antioxidant that resides in the mitochondria and is a vital component of the energy producing process of ATP. It helps to eliminate harmful free radicals produced during the ATP process.

Clean Cellular Energy1
Supporting Ingredients:
B Vitamins (thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, pyridoxine, biotin, folic acid, cyancobalamin) – support various enzymes that help convert food to energy. B Vitamins serve as coenzymes that assist in specific metabolic processes to break down fats, amino acids and carbohydrates for energy.
Magnesium – essential in all energy dependent reactions that include the use of ATP energy. It serves as a catalyst in the creation of ATP from ADP. It is also a catalyst when ATP is used for energy by helping in the hydrolysis of ATP (the act of releasing the energy stored in the high energy phosphate bond).
Copper – plays an important role supporting the synthesis of ATP in the mitochondria, or the part of the cell responsible for energy production.
Chromium – an essential trace element that is needed for the metabolism of energy. Chromium works with insulin and assists cells to uptake glucose and release energy.
