New Physician Developed Pharmaceutical Strength Supplements Targets Telomeres, The Body?s Biologic Time Clock

New Physician Developed Pharmaceutical Strength Supplements Targets Telomeres, The Body’s Biologic Time Clock

Fleetwood, PA (PRWEB) May 04, 2011

Telomeres are segments of genetic material residing at the end of our chromosomes that protect our DNA and determine the maximum lifespan of a cell, and ultimately a person. It is a true biological clock. But biological clocks are not as predictable as chronological clocks. which move at a steady and predictable pace. Biologically, our cellular time clocks (telomeres) diminish, maintain or grow at varying and unpredictable rates. Telomeres are susceptible to change based on diet, fitness level and emotional well-being.

These discoveries mean that ailments once believed to result from a cruel roll of the genetic dice and the passing of time may now be able to be prevented. The secret lies in controlling how fast your biologic fuse, the telomere, burns out. Dave Woynarowski MD, developer of the Telomere Edge Packs says “Shortened telomeres create inflammation through a unique pathway very different than the inflammation that is caused by poor diet, lack of sleep and a sedentary lifestyle. The inflammation caused by telomere erosion plays a critical role in all diseases of aging. When telomeres get too short, the fuse burns out, cells stop dividing and when too many cells stop dividing, death occurs.”

This new knowledge empowers everyone. We are no longer captive to our genetic predispositions of disease and aging. 70-80% of factors determining whether we become afflicted with illness or disease is in our control. “Thanks to new discoveries about telomeres and telomerase, we can reset our biological clocks and redefine “aging gracefully;” we call this new measure health span,” said Dr. Woynarowski.

“To live as long as possible while maintaining vitality-to keep telomeres from shrinking too fast- the right supplements are needed to put up the strongest possible defense against the disease of aging. Until now there was not a clear understanding of what it took to maintain healthy telomeres”, said Dr. Woynarowski.. The Immortality Edge Pack is the only supplement regime that includes the most important combination of natural substances designed by a physician specifically for the purpose of preserving telomere length.

The key is to take the supplements that really matter. The Telomere Edge Pack protocol is based on the latest scientific discoveries proven to help slow telomere loss. The convenient daily AM & PM packets include the most important vitamins, herbs, amino acids and nutrients for preserving telomeres.

For most people increased telomere length means improved energy, a longer, healthier life and a stronger immune system. Other effects of reducing telomere loss includes younger looking skin, improved vitality and sexual performance, better tolerance to sugar and cholesterol along with fewer aches and pains.

The Pharmaceutical Grade Telomere Edge Packs include well researched nutrients such as:

Omega 3 Fish Oil- reduces inflammation and stress, protects DNA from oxidation and according to a five year medical study published in JAMA found participants with the greatest dietary intake of EPA an DHA had the longest telomeres and those with the lowest dietary intake had the shortest telomeres.

CoQ10- utilizing the more bioavailable ubiquinol form this potent antioxidant helps keep energy output up to help keep genetic material, including telomeres, healthy and helps cells’ mitochondria young which results in greater vitality for cells and telomeres.

N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine- supports detoxification, boosts the “master antioxidant” glutathione’s levels in the body and helps maintain the integrity of cells and telomeres.

Vitamin D3- is an inflammation inhibitor which reduces stress on cells thereby keeping telomeres from shortening too rapidly. A female twin study provided strong evidence that D3 dramatically slows the rate of telomere shortening.

L-Carnosine-reduces inflammation, boosts immune system and reduces effects of glucose damage and protein oxidation. According to research at the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing it dramatically reduces the rate of telomere shortening. Some studies even suggest it may be a telomerase activator.

Phosphatidylserine- binds to and inactivates the stress hormone cortisol. Studies by Nobel Prize winner Elizabeth Blackburn and others show how stress speeds up the shortening of telomeres.

Promising Results of First-Ever Human Clinical Trial of a Resveratrol Supplement?s Impact on Pre-diabetes

Promising Results of First-Ever Human Clinical Trial of a Resveratrol Supplement’s Impact on Pre-diabetes

Orlando, FL (PRWEB) June 28, 2010

Investigators from Albert Einstein College of Medicine’s Diabetes Clinical Trials Unit today presented the results of a promising study on the effect of regular consumption of a resveratrol supplement and the health of patients with Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT), also called “pre-diabetes”. The pilot study, titled “Resveratrol Improves Glucose Metabolism in Older Adults with IGT”, involved a small group of older adults who were given the resveratrol supplement Transmax, produced by nutraceutical company Biotivia LLC, on a daily basis over the course of four weeks.

Results of the study of 10 individuals show that at moderate doses, Transmax resveratrol improved insulin resistance and lowered post-meal glucose levels in patients with IGT, a promising result for people with type 2 diabetes or at high risk for this condition. These results were considered sufficiently important for presentation to researchers assembled at the American Diabetes Association’s Annual Scientific Meeting this weekend.

The resveratrol supplement used in the study, Transmax, is produced by Biotivia LLC of New York, a manufacturer of resveratrol-based health supplements. Another study recently completed at Northumbria University in the United Kingdom also used a Biotivia resveratrol supplement to investigate brain blood flow and cognition after resveratrol consumption. That study found that resveratrol increased the volume of circulation to the cerebrum by as much as 200%.

As the focus of intense media and consumer interest for the past year, resveratrol has been featured by the media on shows such as 60 Minutes, as well as in Time Magazine and other leading national and international publications. Many scientists studying this compound believe that daily consumption of a quality resveratrol supplement such as the one used in this clinical trial may provide benefits that include anti-inflammation, cardiovascular protection and improved physical and cognitive health.

The Albert Einstein trial appears to confirm resveratrol’s potential role as a beneficial modulator of insulin sensitivity, a key component of Type 2 diabetes.

“The results of this pilot study are preliminary and need to be confirmed in larger numbers of patients,” said Jill Crandall, M.D., Associate Professor of clinical medicine at Albert Einstein College of Medicine and lead investigator of the study. “However, we are encouraged by these findings and plan to conduct additional studies to further explore the potential utility of resveratrol in improving glucose metabolism.”

Resveratrol has been tested in relation to diabetes before, but only in animal subjects or on cell lines. Those studies have repeatedly shown promising effects on insulin secretion, insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance, leading to the initiation of this first-of-its-kind pilot clinical study on humans.

“We find these results to be extremely encouraging but not at all surprising,” said Biotivia CEO and founder James Betz. “This human clinical trial confirms the insights gleaned from a substantial number of earlier in vitro and animal studies which have clearly elucidated the various biokinetic pathways and modalities via which resveratrol operates in animals. We have had good reason to believe for some time now that resveratrol has the potential to ameliorate or prevent many of the adverse health conditions associated with aging and various adverse contemporary environmental and life style factors.”

The study’s findings are bolstered by the results of several other resveratrol clinical trials to be presented at the ADA’s 70th Annual Meeting.

Mannatech Prepared for New Law that will Require Reporting of Adverse Events with Consumption of Dietary Supplements

Mannatech Prepared for New Law that will Require Reporting of Adverse Events with Consumption of Dietary Supplements

Coppell, Texas (Vocus) December 16, 2006

Global health and wellness provider Mannatech, Incorporated (NASDAQ-MTEX) is prepared to meet the requirements of a new law designed by Congress to boost consumer confidence in the safety of dietary supplements.

The bill, which will become effective within a year of being signed into law, will require supplement companies to include contact information on product labels for consumers to report adverse events during consumption. The bill received bipartisan support in both the U.S. Senate, which passed the bill unanimously, and the U.S. House of Representatives, which approved it by more than a 2-to-1 majority.

Mannatech has operated a product safety monitoring program for more than eight years. Modeled after programs used by the prescription drug industry, Mannatech’s safety monitoring is designed to record any possible adverse event reported to the company in its international and domestic markets.

“Mannatech’s impeccable safety record is a direct result of our stringent control programs,” said company founder, CEO and chairman of the board, Sam Caster. “Our Good Manufacturing Practices and safety monitoring systems give consumers the confidence they need to know they are getting the best and safest products.”

Given its legacy of monitoring the safety of its products, Mannatech believes the company has systems in place that will comply with the new law. In fact, the company already complies with similar requirements in some of its international markets.

Founded in 1993, Mannatech is a leading wellness company and a pioneer in the field of proprietary glyconutritional supplements and wellness products. The company announced a ground-breaking formulation in 1996 of a nutritional supplement comprised of a unique blend of plant-based saccahrides, which are also known as glyconutrients (‘glyco’ is the Greek word for ‘sweet’).

Medical research acknowledges that certain sugars are needed at the cellular level for optimum cellular function.* Considering that most of these sugars are often lacking in modern diets, Mannatech sought new and better sources of these nutrients. The effort culminated in 1996 with the Ambrotose complex.

Ten years of research, including in vitro studies, animal studies, human case reports and human clinical studies suggest that Ambrotose provides a wide range of benefits. More than 20 patents worldwide – including one from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office – have been issued to Mannatech for technology related to the Ambrotose formulation.

Today Mannatech has more than two dozen glyconutritional products for adults and children that address health and nutrition, sports performance, weight management and skin care.

About Mannatech, Incorporated

Mannatech, Incorporated, is a global wellness solutions provider that develops innovative, high-quality, proprietary nutritional supplements, topical and skin care products, and weight management products that are sold through approximately 536,000 independent associates and members located in the United States and the international markets of Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, Japan, New Zealand, the Republic of Korea, Taiwan, Denmark and Germany.

What Health Supplements Can Do to Promote Health

There are many supplements that can be purchased and each has a different function to aid with health in the body and mind. These supplements can be vitamins, antioxidants, minerals, flavonoids and enzymes.

Natural health supplements and vitamins can be used not only to promote good health but also to combat things like allergies. They are also combatants against bone loss, the effects of aging and other health concerns. There are vitamins that are commonly heard of, and there are also supplements that are not as familiar,which also ensure health. Vitamins such as A, B, C and D are commonly found in things like milk and orange juice however most people do not get enough of them each day. This means their bodies do not have what they need to stay healthy and along with these vitamins there are also other supplements that help to ensure the body has what it needs like essential fatty acid and enzymes.

The meals that are eaten today do not have the amount of supplements required to keep the body naturally health. This is why these supplements help to ensure a naturally healthy body.  The use of a daily vitamin can help the body, but it also does not offer everything one needs.

There are supplements that can assist with all types of health issues from controlling weight to helping memory.

There have been studies done on many supplements, antioxidants, minerals and enzymes and there is proof that many are beneficial in promoting a healthy body. Vitamin C is known to help during cold season and while it is not the cure for the common cold it can help the body to avoid colds and help to shorten them in length. Vitamin D is known for helping the body grow and become strong, just as vitamin B is known for helping the body cope with stress.  Vitamin E helps the body by preventing inflammation; it has also been associated with protection from cancer and heart disease.

Then there are supplements that have herbal properties such as grape seeds that contain proantocyanidins, which is an antioxidant that is up to fifty times more potent than vitamin C or E.

Vitamin B has also been proven to be one of the vitamins that help the body and unlike some other vitamins there is not one type of B vitamin but several. There is B 1 which is known as Thiamine, B 2 is known as Riboflavin, B 3 is Niacin, B 5 is know as Pantothenic, B 6 also known as Ptridoxine, B 7 is known as Biotin, B9 is Folic Acid and there is also B 12. The B vitamins are proven to relieve stress, heal acne, heart disease and are used in pre-natal vitamins.

Garlic is also known for its abilities to protect the body by preventing viruses, bacteria and fungi and it is also known to aid in reducing cholesterol and blood pressure.

Ginko has been proven to aid with memory and mental ability, because it helps by increasing blood flow to the brain and extremities that can occur from aging.

Milk Thistle extract promotes health in the liver this is because it contains silymarin that can help to prevent liver destruction.  At the same time helps increase the liver to detoxify chemicals from the body.

Omega 3 is lacking in most diets and aids in the body by stopping inflammation and reduces allergies. It also aids in healthy function of cells that relate to the brain and nerves.

Calcium supplements for many years have been recommended for good bone health in women who during their mature years can be diagnosed with osteoporosis. While calcium can be put into the body by drinking milk this is not a high enough amount to protect against this disease.  There is also evidence that calcium supplements can promote weight loss and decrease body fat in women.

There is evidence that some vitamins and other natural health compounds are absorbed and used more efficiently by the body when taken together. One of these is calcium; when it is taken with vitamin D and Magnesium it is absorbed into the body better and works more efficiently.

Calcium and Magnesium are both minerals and there are other minerals that help to promote a healthy body. Chloride, Phosphorus, Potassium and Sodium are other minerals that help the body. Minerals are one thing that the body can not make on its own and it can be found in some foods but not always in the amount that is needed to keep the body health.

There are also trace minerals that the body needs to have natural health, there are fifteen of these that can help to promote health in the body. These fifteen are Baron, Chromium, Cobalt, Copper, Fluoride, Iodine, Iron, Lithium, Manganese, Molybdenum, Nickel, Selenium, Tin, Vanadium and Zinc.

These trace minerals will usually be found in most daily supplements but may not be found in the amount the body needs for complete health. It is not all together unusual to find a person deficient in iron, manganese or zinc.

These are only a small amount of the natural health supplements that are available and for each health condition there are natural supplements that can be taken to combat poor health. There are natural supplement regiments that can fight the affects of aging, diseases like cancer and heart disease. Natural supplements have also been proven to be beneficial to the health of the body during pregnancy and during menopause. Certain supplements are also known for helping to diminish acne and other skin problems.

Putting natural supplements into the body is unlike taking medications in the respect that supplements are safe. They are often something that the body makes naturally that decreases at certain times of the twenty-four hour day or as the body begins to age. Many supplements can also be found in a proper diet, which is not always adhered to and for this reason supplements provide the needed nutrients.
