Background: Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin that has many important functions in the body including antioxidant activity, support of normal, healthy collagen, synthesis of neurotransmitters such as serotonin, carnitine production and the support of normal, healthy immune function.  PureWay-C® is a scientifically advanced form of vitamin C which binds ascorbic acid to lipid metabolites such as fatty acids, esters and fatty alcohols to enhance digestion, absorption, cellular uptake and retention as well as utilization of essential vitamin C in the body.  The increased cellular uptake and retention of vitamin C, results in enhanced vitamin C functions.*    Features: Contains vitamin C bound to lipid metabolites. This form is able to enhance the absorption and utilization of vitamin C.* Added calcium to create non-acidic, “GI friendly” delivery system. Synergistic benefits of citrus bioflavonoid complex. Available in 500 mg tablets and vegetarian capsules as well as 1000 mg tablets.     Benefits: PureWay-C® allows vitamin C to more efficiently pass through the cell membrane, be retained and utilized by individual cells for all vitamin C related functions.* Numerous studies show the benefits of Pureway-C® over other forms of vitamin C, including calcium ascorbate and ascorbic acid in regards to:                   - 2 hour cellular uptake higher with Pureway-C®.*                   - cellular uptake and retention over a 24 hr time period higher with                      Pureway-C®.* Due to better absorption and retention, studies demonstrate vitamin C functions are enhanced including:                       - support of wound healing activities*                       - immune system support*                       - promoting healthy levels of c-reactive protein (marker of                         inflammation) and oxidized LDL (risk factor for heart disease)*                                                                 - antioxidant activity* Comparative studies using PureWay-C® show significantly greater antioxidant activity over other forms of vitamin C. Citrus bioflavonoids help enhance the biological benefits of vitamin C.*   Ingredients

Aging is a major contributing factor to the issues associated with prostate health. The prostate gland is a walnut-shaped gland that surrounds the urethra, for this reason, any inflammation of the prostate may result in urinary-related problems i.e. difficulty urinating, painful urination, etc. Saw palmetto has been studied and shown to help support prostate health via several different mechanisms of action. Clinical trials have demonstrated the beneficial properties of the active ingredients found in saw palmetto. Most of the clinical research done on saw palmetto has been carried out using European standardized extracts of saw palmetto. European standardized saw palmetto unlike other types, is grown, processed, extracted, etc. using the most stringent standards in the nutraceutical industry. It is b cause of these standards, that European standardized saw palmetto is able to provide the beneficial effects associated with its use.†   Features Standardized Saw Palmetto from EuroMed, a world leader in the manufacturing of European standardized herbs. Standardized to 85-95% fatty acids and sterols in a liquid softgel. Also available in 160mg potency.   Benefits Saw Palmetto Berry Extract is used to support a healthy prostate.† Its primary mode of action involves supporting healthy testosterone metabolism, in part by maintaining healthy 5-alpha-reductase enzyme activity and receptor binding.† Clinical studies have shown Saw Palmetto helps to support the normal activity of 5-alpha reductase enzyme thereby supporting normal, healthy levels of DHT (dihydrotestosterone). Saw palmetto also influences the binding of DHT to prostate cells, which helps support normal, healthy prostate cell structure and function.† In a recently published JAMA meta-analysis of 18 clinical studies involving over 3,000 men, Saw Palmetto extract was shown to provide important urologic support by promoting healthy urinary function.†   LABEL

Elderberry contains several compounds that help support healthy immune function. These active compounds help defend against viruses by affecting their ability to infect the body’s cells. Certain proteins at the surface of viruses have the ability to breakdown the body’s cell membranes and infect the cell. By neutralizing these proteins, the active compounds in elderberry help to protect the cells from infection. Elderberry is also rich in anthocyanins, which have well documented antioxidant properties. In addition, the anthocyanins in the elderberry help to support cytokine production. Cytokines are essential for regulating immune function.†   Features Provides 6,400 mg of certified organic elderberry fruit extract per serving. Contains no sugar, artificial colors or flavors. Elderberry extract has been shown to support immune function, particularly against the cold and flu virus.† Has twice the potency of the leading brand.

Cardiovascular disease continues to be the leading cause of mortality in the United States. One of the major risk factors for cardiovascular disease is elevated total and LDL (“bad”) cholesterol. There are several categories of prescription drugs that are designed to help lower cholesterol; the most commonly prescribed being Statin drugs. Statins are effective at lowering total and LDL cholesterol, but they are associated with significant side effects. Many individuals with elevated cholesterol have been able to improve their cardiovascular health through diet, exercise, and nutraceutical supplements. One of the nutraceuticals that have been shown in research studies to support normal LDL and total cholesterol levels is red yeast rice. Red yeast rice is the product of yeast (Monascus purpureus) grown on rice, and is served as a dietary staple in some Asian countries. It contains several compounds that are collectively known as monacolins which support the mechanisms that can lead to improved cardiovascular health.†   Features 600mg of red yeast rice per serving. Carefully manufactured to avoid the presence of citrinin, a toxic by-product of the fermentation process. Easy to swallow vegetarian capsule Gluten-Free   Benefits Red yeast rice has been shown in numerous studies to help support cardiovascular health.† Supports normal triglyceride, LDL, and total cholesterol levels.† Red yeast rice offers a safe option for supporting healthy cholesterol levels.
