Antioxidants and Free Radicals

Antioxidants are an integral part in the prevention of cellular damage -- the common pathway for cancer, aging, and a variety of diseases. Antioxidants are also thought to have a role in slowing the aging process and preventing heart disease and strokes. Therefore, the best advice, which comes from several authorities in cancer prevention, is to eat 5 servings of fruit or vegetables per day.

That's where Ningxia Red comes in. NingXia Red™ has benefits that may be life changing in their scope. No other juice we are aware of has such comprehensive, powerful, free-radical fighting abilities. The other ingredients found in NingXia Red™, in addition to heart and DNA health benefits, provide synergistic antioxidant benefits that, when combined with wolfberry juice, produce a product we are proud to claim as "The World's Most Powerful Antioxidant Food."

Ultra-High Antioxidants:
NingXia Red™ is considered to be a wide-spectrum antioxidant, meaning it does more than just protect the body against a single "free radical." (Free radicals in the body damage cells, proteins, and DNA by altering their chemical structure.) NingXia Red™'s capacity to absorb four of the most prevalent free radicals found in the human body is superior. Specifically, its capacity to absorb the superoxide free radical, the most abundant free radical in the human body, is many times more effective than the closest competing health drink!
The antioxidant potency of Ningxia Red is so strong that drinking one ounce every day infuses the body with more free radical defenses than could be consumed through diet alone.

One ounce of Ningxia Red has the same antioxidant levels as any one of the following:

34 large onions
100 oranges
814 blueberries
22 medium carrots
10.85 pounds of spinach
55.33 pounds of almonds
59 broccoli florets
73 medium strawberries
93 apples
130 tomatoes

There are many scales that measure antioxidant activity: ORAC, S-ORAC, HORAC, BOVIS, etc. The scale that Young Living uses is the newer S-ORAC (S stands for Superoxide) and SOD (sodium oxide dismutase) plays a huge part here. SOD is the highest anti-oxidant known.

NingXia Red™ always tested high but did not go off the charts until Gary Young added the skins, pulp and seeds to the drink in 2005. Other things to watch for:
1) is the product sold in plastic or glass? Plastic leaches unwanted chemicals into the product.
 
2) is the product made with lower temperatures (and therefore more costly) to help preserve the natural enzymes? Young Living does not heat NingXia Red™ at all-- a very small amounts of benign preservatives are used so the juice can be raw.

3) does the product have cheaper filler juices like pear and grape? NingXia Red™ has pomegranate, blueberry and raspberry, besides the Ningxia wolfberry. All whole foods. Speaking of wolfberry, there appear to be about 18 different species, and the Ningxia wolfberry is the only one with the great properties it has.
 
To get the same benefit as drinking just 1 oz of NingXia Red™ you would have to drink:

one and a half bottles of Via Viente™;

Eight bottles of Xango™;
(see: "A Friendly Skeptic Looks at Mangosteen" By Dr. Ralph Moss)

Nine Bottles of Noni™;

A whole truck load of Goji Juice™.
