Phytonutrients can :
- Slow & or Stop the development of cancer cells.
- Block testosterone and estrogen from promoting cancer cell growth.
- Prevent tumors from spreading by choking off their blood supply.

Phytonutrients appear to serve three major functions in the human body:
1. They act as antioxidants - Protect our bodies from free-radical damage and support healthy cellular functions. (Free Radical damage)
2 . They regulate Hormone levels - Phytonutrients provide nutrients required for optimum hormonal functions.
3. Preserve optimal health and longevity - Prevent degenerative diseases such as hardening of the arteries, to cancer and premature aging.
Phyto Reds from LifeSource is an ideal nutritional boost for every individual who wants to ensure that in one's diet that one has the nutrients and phytonutrients needed for optimum health especially from natural superfoods. Our Phyto Red's are fortified with key nutrients to enable the body to boost the immune system and protect the body against free radical damages, all which have been associated with degenerative diseases. Our Phyto Reds are idea for weight loss and overall great health.
In recent studies, eating plenty of high-ORAC foods:
- Raised the antioxidant power of human blood 10 to 25 percent
- Prevented some loss of long-term memory and learning ability in middle-aged rats
- Maintained the ability of brain cells in middle-aged rats to respond to a chemical stimulus--a function that normally decreases with age
- Protected rats' tiny blood vessels--capillaries--against oxygen damage
Nutritionist Ronald L. Prior contends, "If we can show some relationship between ORAC intake and health outcome in people, I think we may reach a point where the ORAC value will become a new standard for good antioxidant protection."
We at LifeSource believe this will take place soon!
What is Oxidation & why should we worry about Antioxidation?
An easy to understand example of oxidation is to imagine rust attacking metal. When the rust eats away at the metal, the metal starts to weaken and decay until it can no longer work. This is what happens to our body when free radicals attack it. Organs, cells and other parts of the body can be weakened by oxidation. This leads to diseases such as cancer, skin and heart diseases , senile dementia and osteoarthritis .
The ORAC score test was developed by Dr. Guohua Cao, a chemist and physician . The ORAC score covers all the antioxidants in foods. Antioxidants cannot easily be measured separately, but the ORAC score test can identify which nutrients are the important antioxidants. Combinations of nutrients found in foods may have greater protective benefits than each nutrient on its own. Many people obtain a number of their daily nutrients from supplements in pill or powder form, but in order to receive the best form of nutrients, it is essential to receive them from plant based food supplements. There are certain types of plants that have a better antioxidant level than others, and the ORAC score can measure these.
Different types of fruit and vegetables have different ORAC scores. The recommended "5-a-day" fruit and vegetable servings will give you an ORAC score of 1,750 units. You could pick seven fruits with a low ORAC level and achieve only 1,300 ORAC units, or you could pick seven with high values and receive around 6,000 ORAC units or more. A large handful of blueberries would give you an ORAC score of around 6,000.
Studies have shown that eating foods with a high ORAC score will raise the antioxidant levels in the blood by around 10 to 25%. The ORAC figure suggested by experts is around 5,000 units per day to have a significant effect on plasma and tissue antioxidant levels. Eating eight to ten servings of brightly colored fruits and vegetables or dark greens will help achieve this level. More and more foods and supplements are beginning to state the ORAC score on their labels, and this should make it easier to find foods you like which are also good for you.
Here is what the Phyto Red's do in breakdown form:
Vitamin C ( Ascorbic Acid & Calcium Ascorbate ) is a very important vitamin. It helps to promote healthy capillaries, gums, teeth; aid iron absorption; heal wounds, burns and broken bones; increase calcium absorption; form collagen in connective tissues; aid in adrenal gland function; reduce free-radical production etc.
Bioflavonoids are brightly coloured chemical constituents of the pulp and rind of citrus fruits, green pepper, tomatoes and broccoli. They may act as an antioxidant, increase effectiveness of Vitamin C and decrease cholesterol levels. They may also prevent haemorrhoids, nosebleed, menstrual disorders, blood clotting, easy bruising and cataract.
Quercitin is one of the bioflavonoids. It may help regulate blood-sugar levels in diabetes and lessen asthma symptoms.
D-alpha tocopherol is the most absorbable form of Vitamin E. It aids in promoting normal growth and development, normal red-blood-cell formation and vitamin C recycling. Vitamin E acts as an anti-blood clotting agent and antioxidant to enable the body to better deal with cancer, heart disease, free radicals in the body. It also improves immunity especially in Vitamin E deficient people.
Lipoic Acid is a contingent nutrient which helps recycle antioxidants, such as Vitamin C, E, Coenzymes Q10 and Glutathione. It improves ATP synthesis, reduces insulin resistance and improves glucose metabolism.
L-Glutathione is an amino acid that acts as an extracellular anti-oxidant, anti-toxin, and deactivator of free radicals. It helps to regulate the immune system, inhibit lipid peroxidation, protect intestinal endothelial cells against oxidative stress and protect the integrity of red blood cells.
Lycopene is a carotenoid found in tomatoes. It appears to have protective properties against cancer throughout the digestive tract and prostate cancer.
Co-enzyme Q10 acts as a lipid antioxidant. It is a cofactor in several metabolic pathways particularly oxidative respiration. It also improves the energetic of the immune cellular system. A deficiency in Co-enzyme Q10 may cause diabetes, heart disease, heart failure, muscular dystrophy and infection.
Zinc is a mineral that functions in antioxidant reactions, maintains normal taste and sense of smell, promotes normal growth and development, aids wound healing, helps synthesise DNA and RNA, promotes cell division, repair and growth. It also boosts immunity in zinc-deficient people.
Selenium complements Vitamin E as an efficient antioxidant. It also promotes normal growth and development and stimulates the immune system.
