Description: Xtendlife Zupafood Elite - 30 Packets - 10 Grams EachCombining the power of "Super-foods", Medicinal Mushrooms and Collagen/Elastin Polypeptides to help you defy aging to look younger, more energized and keep your mental edge!Xtendlife developed Zupafood ELITE not only as a general overall health tonic but more specifically to help defy aging by improving your overall appearance with better skin (clearer, brighter and less signs of aging), healthier hair and nails AND to also to give you a boost in energy. Instead of having a mid-afternoon cup of coffee or an energy drink tear open a packet of Zupafood ELITE and give your body some extra nutrients, that it will thank you for.How can Zupafood ELITE give these benefits?By the selection of the best and most effective natural ingredients available and the synergistic combination of them. These are the steps that the Xtendlife R & D team followed to achieve this:First, Xtend-life developed a unique 'Superfood' blend using a combination of ‘superfood’ ingredients, all locally harvested in New Zealand. This blend consists of Kiwi Fruit Powder, a special Extract of Kiwi Fruit, Grape Seed Extract, Grape Juice Powder, Red Grape Skin Extract, Apple Fiber, Organic Wheat Grass, Organic Barley Grass. This gave the ‘foundation’ for the Xtendlife Zupafood range of products. This ELITE product has 10,000mgs of special nutrients per serving of which 3,800mgs is this unique blend. For more details on the individual components of this blend, please read the information below:AND, the 'Super-food' blend in this product is only the ‘tip of the iceberg’ of what you will receive. Keep reading to see what really makes Zupafood ELITE head and shoulders above other ‘Super-food’ products.Has to taste good! Of course, it is all very well to have the best possible blend of ‘super’ ingredients, but because it wasn't practical to put in capsules (as there would be around 20 per day needed to get optimal amounts of the ingredients) xtend-life made it in a packet, which you could mix with water or your favorite beverage. SO... it had to taste good.To sweeten a ‘Superfood’ naturally is quite easy, using stevia which is a natural sweetener (they would not use sugar) but, to get an acceptable flavor is not easy, since Xtendlife won't use any artificial flavoring. So, xtendlife developed their own special natural flavor, using real fruit by spray drying fruit and concentrating it so we could end up with a good tasting product. After several trials we successfully developed natural flavors for all our Zupafood products.For Zupafood ELITE the flavor is 'apple' from real apples!Information about the ingredients in Zupafood ELITE is listed below. The ‘official’ Supplement Facts table is reproduced under the ingredient info, at the bottom of the description.Kiwi-Fruit Kiwi-Fruit has a number of health benefits. Our NZ Superfood blend contains Kiwi-Fruit in two forms. One as a freeze dried powder and another in the form of a special water extract which focuses on concentrating some of the key actives being phenolics and enzymes. We use both of these forms in our Kiwi-Klenz supplement product and more info can be found there about this unique and very effective ingredient...especially in the area of digestion. Grape Seed Extract The Grape Seed Extract used in the Xtend-Life Superfood Blend is all produced in New Zealand from grapes harvested in the Malborough area of the South Island. The sun is very intense and one of the strongest exposures in the world. As a result, nature has adapted the grapes grown in this region to have more anti-oxidant capabilities, compared to grapes grown in other parts of the world. This is natures way of protecting the grapes. Also, the extraction process used for these grapes is water, not ethanol which is primarily the method used in other extracts.Red Grape Skin Extract This is a quite a unique form of extract and unusual to find in a supplement as very little of this type of extract is produced. What makes it different?Apart from the fact that it is grown in New Zealand, the extract is produced from non-fermented grapes. ( Generally this ingredient is produced from the skins from the grapes that are used in the making of red wine and they have been fermented and lost their deep purple colour and have been bleached white. Ethanol is also used in the extraction process).The grape skin which is used at Xtend-Life is from non-fermented grapes and a water extraction process. Laboratory tests on the extract prove that the extract is identical to the original natural grape skin with around 20 actives whereas the "usual" grape skin extract only has about 4 or 5.Apple Fiber The Apple Fiber provides extra fiber to the superfood blend.Organic Wheat Grass Contains a full spectrum of vitamins and minerals – including 13 essential ones, combined with dozens of trace elements and enzymes. What’s more wheat grass contains P4D1 – a "gluco-protein" that helps reduce inflammation.Wheat grass has been shown to help your body attack abnormal cells, stop the growth and development of unfriendly bacteria, neutralize toxins, improve blood sugar, purify the liver – just to name a FEW amazing benefits!Please note: the wheat grass found in Zupafoods is certified organic! So you can be certain you’re getting high quality, pure wheat grass for optimal health and wellness! And since our organic wheat grass is gluten-free – it’s safe to take if you have wheat allergies or sensitivities.Organic Barley Grass Acts as a free radical scavenger that may help reduce inflammation... pain... and even LDL cholesterol! A study published in the Journal of Chiropractic Medicine found that participants who followed a diet that includes barley grass, showed significant reductions in total and LDL cholesterol in just 21 days! Plus...Barley grass contains an exceptionally high amount of organic sodium – which helps dissolve calcium deposited on joints and helps to alleviate joint pain!Organic Spirulina Helps strengthen your immune system – and may help you feel better faster! Because it actively promotes cell regeneration - spirulina may help wounds heal quicker and speed recovery from illness faster.Spirulina is a good source of Gamma-linoleic acid (GLA) – a powerful natural anti-inflammatory agent – spirulina can also benefit your immune system – making you less vulnerable to bugs and other illnesses!Organic Chlorella Natural detox for your cells! This single-cell alga has an ability to bind with toxins like chemicals and heavy metals – and help remove them out of the body! Clinical studies and medical research have shown that toxins such as arsenic, mercury, lead, pesticides, insecticides, cadmium, uranium, P.C.B. and radio actives materials have been successfully eliminated from the body with the help of chlorella!This is a real benefit of this ingredient as many of these metals can wreak havoc with your organs and systems.Chlorella also helps promote the production of healthy flora, bacteria and probiotics throughout your digestive system… fight candida and yeast overgrowth...increase energy levels… and even elevate your mood!Our formula contains chlorella vulgaris – a superior form of broken cell wall chlorella – which has been meticulously pulverized and delicately processed to ensure the powerful nutrients in chlorella are digestible and bio-available.Green Tea Extract Along with general health benefits, this form of Green Tea in Zupafood delivers a natural energy boost! That’s because one of the active ingredients is natural caffeine – which is a known stimulant. However this green tea extract contains a low dose caffeine that doesn’t cause the “jittery” effects associated with caffeine found in coffee – yet still gives you that energy boost. What’s more...... green tea extract contains the amino acid L-theanine – which has been shown to increase the activity of the inhibitory neurotransmitter called GABA. It’s GABA that helps you remain cool and calm when under stress! Studies show that combining caffeine and L-theanine can have positive, synergistic effects – giving you a mild, natural “buzz” to keep you mentally and physically focusedAquamin TG (calcium) A marine based plant source that’s rich in natural calcium, magnesium and 74 other trace minerals including zinc, iron and selenium.Aquamin TG is produced from the red algae, Lithothamnion species – which is only found in three remote areas around the world. During its growth phase, these algae absorb essential minerals directly from the sea – giving Aquamin TG its unique and potent multi-mineral content.It is also likely to help with various aches and pains. A 12-week, randomized, controlled study printed in Nutrition Journal showed Aquamin TG provides relief from knee pain. Plus, the patients increased walking distance and experienced better joint mobility!Cordyceps Mushrooms For over 2,000 years Traditional Chinese Medicine tapped into the power of Cordyceps to:Increase vitality and energy!Enhance blood flow!Support healthy blood circulation!Fight stress!Balance blood pressure!When Olympic athletes revealed that cordyceps were their “secret weapon” for improving their speed, power and endurance – and winning Gold Medals – the rest of the world started to take note of this mushroom! In fact... Dr. Oz recently named cordyceps as “one of the 5 BEST Cures from Around the World!”Now – researchers are continuing to unlock the power of cordyceps. For example... A placebo-controlled clinical study of elderly patients experiencing fatigue reported heightened energy level when given cordyceps. Plus – the participants noted a better ability to tolerate cold temperature… improved sleep… better memory recall… and even a re-awakening in their sex drive!A boost in your sex drive?A Chinese study printed in China Patent Medicine Industry Report examined the “sex hormone-like” effects of cordyceps. Other published articles reported on animal studies that showed cordyceps can increase sperm production and mobility. And even other studies report that cordyceps can influence the release of testosterone and increase blood circulation via vasodilation.In Tibet and China - Cordyceps are hailed as an aphrodisiac with libido-enhancing properties that work for men and women!For natural energy… vitality… and a sexual charge – cordyceps is an important ingredient and the reason why it is included in the Zupafood ELITE formula.King Trumpet Mushrooms King Trumpet contains one of the highest levels of ‘ERGO’ than any other mushroom just makes sense.Prior to the discovery of ‘ERGO’ in mushrooms it was considered that wheat bran was the most potent source... but, King Trumpet mushrooms have around 40 times more ergo antioxidant power.ERGO not only is a powerful anti-oxidant it actually also helps other anti-oxidants be more effective as well!So more ergo in your body – means more total antioxidant power for optimum cell protection for your DNA and mitochondria! That’s why we include King Trumpet in every serving of Zupafood Elite.Agaricus Mushrooms This button mushroom – with a strong almond-like flavor – contains natural chemicals that can improve your body’s use of insulin. This may be helpful if you are one out of every three Americans who is struggling with maintaining healthy blood sugar levels. A study printed in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine showed patients with blood sugar issues were given either agaricus extract or a placebo daily. At the end of the 12 week study – the agaricus group showed significantly greater improvements in insulin levels, compared to those given the placebo.New research is coming out that also suggests agaricus may also strengthen the immune system and fight abnormal cell growth!Lion’s Mane Mushrooms When the Journal of Health Science broke the news – it ROCKED the medical establishment! Scientists discovered Lion’s Mane contains a group of potent compounds that can stimulate the re-growth of neurons and nerve cells!Do you know what that means for the 35.6 million people suffering with age-related memory decline? Now, there’s a proven medicinal mushroom that can help you sharpen your thinking... enhance concentration... and even remember where you put those car keys! What’s the secret to lion’s mane brain-boosting power?This medicinal mushroom contains two biological compounds that stimulate nerve regeneration: Hericenones and Erinacines. Clinical trials and tests show these 2 potent compounds stimulate Nerve Growth Factor activity. In one double-blind, placebo controlled trial reported in the journal Phytotherapy Research, the scientific team at the Hokuto Corporation and the Isogo Central and Neurological Hospital, reported:“ patients with mild cognitive impairment results in significant benefits for as long as they consumed Lion’s mane”. So imagine how these patients felt... going from foggy thinking and forgetfulness – to sharper memory recall and concentration!'Collactive' Marine Collagen and Elastin Polypeptides Collagen fibers form 70% of the total proteins found in the dermis. When collagen fibers cross-link – they give skin the tensile strength of steel. Elastin fibers create suppleness and elasticity. Combined – collagen and elastin create the perfect “dynamic duo” for smooth, soft, strong and supple skin!Low levels of collagen or a reduced amount of elastin causes skin to lose strength and flexibility. The result? Wrinkles and skin aging!Collactive™ is composed of low molecular weight marine collagen and elastin peptides in the same ratio as the dermis in human skin.Collactive™ combines the two main constituents of the extracellular matrix and has an anti-wrinkle synergic action: elastin fibres give the dermis suppleness that completes collagen fibres tensile strength.The key features are:Reinforces skin hydration. A 3-month clinical study involving women over 40 shows Collactive™ collagen increases the hydration of the epidermis – the layer of the skin that’s more prone to aging!Minimizes soft lines and wrinkles! They may not completely vanish – but it sure makes those lines harder to see! In a clinical trial there was a reduction in the number of deep wrinkles of 19% in the group taking the oral dose of Collactive compared to the placebo group. Help mature skin build lift – and a firming cushion! Collactive™ collagen and elastin polypeptides stimulate the dermis to lift and tone slacking areas of the skin. Rather like a natural ‘face lift’.Create protective shield against harsh weather! Trials found that Collactive helped provide protection for the skin against environmental elements.
