Moringa oleifera

Moringo

Moringa oleifera, also known as Tree of life, clarifier tree, horseradish tree and drumstick tree, has been used for centuries by people living in asia and many parts of Africa. Many refer to this tree as "nutritional dynamite," as it contains copious amounts of important nutrients like iron, calcium and Vitamin A. It also has hundreds of medicinal uses for both prevention and treatment. This may be due to its novel isothiocynate compounds which is a class of phytochemicals.

Origanum vulgare

Origanum vulgare is an aromatic herb native to the Mediterranean region that has been used for centuries to treat a number of different medical ailments. The warm, balsamic and aromatic flavor of oregano makes it the perfect addition to Mediterranean and Mexican cuisines. This popular herb whose name means "mountain joy" is available throughout the year . It contains 80 nutrients.It has primarily been used to treat psoriasis, food poisoning, indigestion, bloating, flatulence, coughs, urinary problems, bronchial problems, headaches, swollen glands and to promote menstruation. However, it also has been used in the past to relieve fevers, diarrhea, vomiting and jaundice. Oregano contains numerous phytonutrients - including thymoland rosmarinic acid - that have also been shown to function as potent antioxidants that can prevent oxygen-based damage to cell structures throughout the body. In laboratory studies, oregano has demonstrated stronger anti-oxidant capacity than either of the two synthetic anti-oxidants commonly added to processed food—BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene) and BHA (butylated bydroxyanisole). Additionally, on a per gram fresh weight basis, oregano has demonstrated 42 times more antioxidant activity than apples, 30 times more than potatoes, 12 times more than oranges and 4 times more than blueberries.

Vitamin B12

Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin necessary for energy production; for nervous system function as it is needed to produce myelin, the fatty substance that forms a protective sheath around nerves; for the production of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that helps with memory and learning; for the synthesis of red blood cells; for producing the genetic materials, DNA and RNA. It can help depression and give you energy. Most vitamin B12 comes from animal source foods and is deficient in strict vegetarian diets. In a recent study, subjects taking methylcobalamin experience improved sleep quality and increased daytime alertness and concentration, and in some cases they also reported improved mood. Much of the benefit appears to be a result of methylcobalamin's influence on melatonin secretion and resetting the biological clock. Specifically, methylcobalamin causes a significant decrease in daytime melatonin levels while increasing nighttime levels.

Trace Mineral complex

Trace Mineral complex –(Humic &Fulvic acid) Humic acid comes from humates that are found in rich organic soil. Humates are fossilised plant material originating from a period which pre–dates the dinosaurs. The humic acid is extracted from compressed, ancient plant matter in the form of Leonardite, a soft brown coal. This dark powder contains dense mineral components which characterize those ancient plants. It also contains the amino acids and many of the other beneficial phytochemicals from that original plant matter. If you have ever put fertilizer on your yard, chances are it contained small amounts of humic acid. In fact, the word describing dark rich soil is humus which contains humic acid. Humic acid is absorbed by plants and helps in many ways.

Humates contain both humic and fulvic acids. Even though they are call acids, they are more like salts. Fulvic acid is derived from humic acid. It contains minerals and acts as a chelator. Humic acid is a dilator, which increases the cell wall permeability. Humates contain a wide range of essential minerals and other vital nutrients necessary for human health. Together, they help the body absorb necessary nutrients and expel waste and toxins.

Humic acid is an excellent anti–oxidant and is a complex organic molecule. Humic and fulvic acids together contain a wide variety of trace minerals.

Humic acid has been used for hundreds of years, by cultures around the globe, for a wide variety of traditional remedies. Humic acid helps the body in several ways at the cellular level including:

Piperine

Piperine, which boasts health benefits too, is known for enhancing bioavailability and bioefficacy when used in combination with other ingredients. Research has shown that piperine increases the bioavailability of different drugs from 30 to 200%, while improving the absorption of many nutrients, including vitamin C, selenium, beta-carotene, vitamin A, vitamin B6 and coenzyme . However, in one study, while piperine was shown to increase the bioavailability of curcumin by almost ten-fold, nanoparticle encapsulation improved oral bioavailability even more.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C acts as a preservative and antioxidant capacities. Increasing the amount of Vitamin C in the extract helps increase the concentration of glutathione cofactors in the body. These cofactors are essential for the Moringa to up-regulate this antioxidant pathway.
