Resveratrol – Research Domination

According to Dr. Paul Gross, from BerryDoctor.com, no phytochemical has dominated the research over the past several years like the compound, Resveratrol. In 2008, there were about 500 articles published on this compound; enough to earn the Berry Doctor’s top berry research topic for 2008.   “As of June 2010, there are more than 3,330 [...]

ORAC is OUT – Cell Signaling Pathways are In

As I have stated many times, many functional beverages, tout their antioxidant strength with incredible “ORAC” values.  They get these high numbers by spiking their products with either extracted nutrients, or freeze dried ingredients, allowing them to “scientifically” prove an exceptionally high ORAC score inside their bottles. Flavonoids are a family of some 5,000 plant [...]

Eiro and ORAC – What’s the Real Number

Many times I get asked, “What’s the ORAC score of a 2 oz. serving of Eiro?”  I love this question, because its like asking someone what their cholesterol level is.  Unless you know how much is the good kind of cholesterol (HDL), how much is the bad kind (LDL) and what the particle size of [...]

Eiro and SuperOxide Dismutase (SOD) – A Big Deal

Eiro’s recently completed study showed that the Eiro Superantioxidant wellness beverage significantly raised the level of SOD in the body.  Based on the number of questions I have been getting, most people did not realize the significance of this nor did they understand the study.  Let me see if I can show you what a [...]

Lycopene, Lutein, and Lupeol – Fruit’s Trifecta

3 more additions to our antioxidant all-star team are Lycopene, Lutein, and a compound that is generating a lot of press these days, Lupeol.  What are they, how to they help me nutritionally, and can I get all I need of these phytonutrients from Eiro? First, let’s look at Lutein.  Lutein and its isomer zeaxanthin [...]

Resveratrol – Eiro’s Superantioxidant All-Star Team (Part II)

Our second member of Eiro’s Superantioxidant All-Star Team is Resveratrol.  This compound is the “Captain” of our All-Star team and probably accounts for many of the reasons you feel something after drinking Eiro.  Resveratrol is currently being studied and is implicated as having a beneficial role in the following conditions:  cardiovascular disease, anti-inflammatory, diabetes, increase lifespan, phytoestrogen, [...]

Eiro’s Superantioxidant All-Star Team (Part I)

All of the ingredients of Eiro are important and work together synergistically, but several are so significant they deserve further discussion.  I have put together what I call my all-star team.  The first member is Beta-Sitosterol.  This phytosterol has been implicated in over 27 different medical conditions, and in several of these the use of Beta-Sitosterol [...]

Eiro and Free Radicals – Good vs Evil

What are free radicals?  Why are they damaging to the Human body?  And how do the antioxidants in Eiro help protect the body against free radical damage?  To understand the way free radicals interact with antioxidants, you must first understand cells and molecules.
