An Exciting Discovery: The Science Behind RiSoTriene™

For centuries, mothers in India believed that the rice bran which encapsulates white rice held certain healing powers that worked miracles on their ill children. The outer layer of rice, the 'rice bran', contains 65% of the nutrients found in the kernel; in other words, over two thirds of the rice kernel's nutrients lie in the bran. Unfortunately, the life span of the fragile rice bran is short, rendering it useless within hours after being milled from the kernel.  Because the outer layer contains an enzyme called lipase which causes the rice to become rancid within hours after harvesting, the bran has always been removed and discarded. Efforts to prolong the life sustaining power of the rice bran were fruitless. For the past 50 years, every major rice growing country in the world has searched for a way to stabilize the bran, but without success. A major breakthrough in extrusion technology has now unlocked the means to stabilize the rice bran while maintaining and enhancing its nutritional value. The stabilization is accomplished without the use of chemicals or any additives. This special processing of rice concentrates have combined extracts and stabilized fractions to deliver the ultimate nutritional complex. The rice bran has been transformed into one of the most valuable food resources ever discovered. In fact, it is believed that RiSoTriene™ is the most bioavailable whole food on earth.

RiSoTriene™ is one of the most potent sources of phytochemicals of any food. It contains all of the vitamins, minerals and other nutrients needed to help fight disease, aging and to help promote health. According to research and clinical studies conducted at the University of Wisconsin, it contains compounds which dramatically reduce harmful cholesterol levels (LDL), while increasing the good cholesterol (HDL) required for a healthy coronary artery system. 

Certain antioxidants that are present in RiSoTriene™ have been documented to support the slowing of the aging process and to battle free radicals that are linked to degenerative conditions.  Antioxidant supplements work by boosting the immune system to help fight off free radical damage. Free radical damage is caused by oxidation within the cells; antioxidants neutralize the damage of oxidation.

For example, the power of tocopherols has a positive effect on cholesterol levels. These antioxidants boost the body's ability to  regenerate itself while bolstering its energy and stamina. Their ability to help regulate blood sugar levels may prove helpful to diabetics and others who suffer from hypoglycemia.

National Institute on Aging researchers recently discovered that taking antioxidants cut the death risk from any cause in half among ten thousand elderly persons, ages 67 to 105. Further, the elderly vitamin takers had only one-third as many heart disease deaths as non-vitamin takers.

In a 1993 National Cancer Institute study of nearly thirty thousand people over age forty, antioxidant supplements slashed cancer and cancer deaths by over 13 percent. Cancer survival rates increased 50 percent! Heart attacks, bypass surgery, cardiac deaths and strokes were dramatically reduced in a long term double blind study conducted at Harvard University. According to a study at the New Jersey Medical School, a supplemental dose of antioxidant vitamins brought immunity up and infections down by fifty percent in older healthy people.

a powerful source of vitamins, nutrients, protein and fiber. It contains a newly discovered complex of Vitamin E and tocotrienols as well as tocopherol, which is the compound generally called Vitamin E. The tocotrienol compounds are 40 to 6,000 times more potent than alpha-tocopherol as antioxidants. This makes the anti-inflammatory properties inherent to Vitamin E E even more powerful for those suffering with any type of chronic pain disorder. It contains superior forms of B Complex vitamins, which are crucial for energy metabolism, along with 90 extremely powerful antioxidant vitamins. When these potent antioxidant vitamins are combined they have a synergistic effect and together are up to 100 times more powerful than pycnogenols or grape seed extract.

Lipoic Acid is a powerful compound for producing energy in muscles and is an important link in the vital antioxidant network. It is an essential key that unlocks energy from the food we eat. This energy is available for everything we need to do.

Lipoic acid normalizes blood sugar levels and reduces glycation.  Glycation is the damage done to the body by excess sugar. Glycation leads to accelerated aging, heart disease and diabetes complications. It has been used for nearly thirty years to treat neuropathy, help regulate blood sugar and prevent diabetic cardiopathy and retinopathy. Lipoic acid protects the nervous system and may be involved in the regeneration of nerves. 

For decades, lipoic acid has been used to protect the liver and to detoxify the body of heavy metal pollutants such as cadmium, lead, mercury and excessive iron and copper. According to Dr. Richard A. Passwater, Ph.D., one of the most exciting recent developments is that lipoic acid appears to help slow the progression of HIV infection to clinical AIDS. Known as the metabolic antioxidant, lipoic acid regenerates other antioxidants. Antioxidants help protect the body against the damage that can cause heart disease, cancer, aging, strokes, arthritis, cataracts and most degenerative diseases. Lipoic acid increases the efficiency of Vitamins C & E, glutathione and improves metabolism. When the body is deficient in lipoic acid, other antioxidants do not network properly together. Lipoic acid is a coenzyme that is involved in energy production and is a universal antioxidant that directly and indirectly helps protect every body part from the damage of oxidative stress.

RiSoTriene™ has all Essential Fatty Acids, great for skin disorders such as eczema or psoriasis; absolutely necessary for normal function and development of the brain. Deficiency of EFA'S leads to an impaired ability to learn and recall information.

It contains all Essential Amino Acids. Amino acids act as precursors to neurotransmitters. They are necessary in order for the brain to receive and send messages. Amino acids enable vitamins and minerals to perform their jobs properly. High Potency Antioxidant Enzymes aid in tissue growth and repair, development of nerve cells, and proper metabolic functioning. Enzymes help prevent digestive problems. Enzymes are essential and play a role in virtually all body functions- life could not be sustained without enzymes.

CoEnzyme Q10 is a powerful antioxidant; it activates beta receptor cells which allow the body to recognize the insulin it produces, protects the brain from free radical damage, helps reduce clogged arteries of the heart and is beneficial for heart disease. It is a vitamin-like substance that resembles vitamin E, but may be an even more powerful antioxidant. It declines naturally in the body as we age and needs to be supplemented. The New England Institute reports that CoEnzyme Q10 alone is extremely effective at reducing mortality in people affected with tumors and leukemia. It has the ability to counter histamine and is valuable to allergy and asthma sufferers. It is beneficial in aging, obesity, candidiasis, multiple sclerosis, periodontal disease and diabetes. Because of its immense effect on boosting the immune system, AIDs is a primary target for research.

Phytosterols are natural phytonutrients which help to modulate hormone levels. At any age, hormones are involved in nearly all our bodily functions. They carry messages to cells all over the body, influencing activities such as growth, metabolism, cholesterol transport,  bone building and sexual development. Phytosterols are natural plant compounds that are converted into hormones during the normal digestive process.

A healthy cell knows precisely how to grow, when to divide and when to stop. But if the genetic information within the cell is injured or altered, the cell may begin to behave erratically.  This often leads to cancers and tumors, which can grow malignant and spread  throughout the body. Researchers have discovered that phytosterols may help manipulate the hormonal environment in a favorable way, and by doing so, may help prevent hormone related cellular changes from occurring.

Glutathione and Glutathione Peroxidase are high detoxifiers of free radicals and are critical for overall health maintenance.  Known as the 'triple threat' amino acid, glutathione is found in the cells of nearly all living organisms on earth, and its primary job is waste disposal.

When free radicals are lurking about, threatening to start an oxidation reaction, Glutathione catches them, neutralizes them, passes them on to another antioxidant (such as vitamin E) and begins the cycle anew. In the liver, this powerful amino acid latches onto toxic substances and binds to them, so the liver can excrete them without being damaged. It also prevents healthy  red blood cells from being damaged by neutralizing unstable forms of oxygen. 

We could not possibly survive without this powerful antioxidant. It plays an important role in fighting cancer, stabilizing blood sugar and cellular repair after a stroke. It is the front line defense for preventing oxidation of LDL cholesterol, which damages the arteries. It protects the lymphatic system and the digestive system from an overload of unstable fatty molecules. It maintains the integrity of red blood cells and prevents damage to them. An important study done in Germany indicated that raising glutathione levels will increase T-cells, a prime marker of a good immune system function and crucial to those infected with HIV.

In addition to the above benefits, glutathione is useful in modulating blood sugar in diabetics and in boosting performance in athletes. It stops or slows down macular  degeneration which causes vision loss and cataracts.

Glutathione is depleted by natural aging. It is also depleted by chronic diseases such as cancer and arthritis; overexposure to pesticides; pharmaceutical drugs that stress the liver (acetaminophen) and aspirin; vitamin and mineral deficiency and birth control pills.

Gamma Oryzanol has extremely positive effects on blood lipids and metabolism. It is a natural replacement for anabolic steroids and helps build muscle. It also has extremely beneficial effects on hormone imbalances associated with PMS or Menopause.

These nutrients flow through your body in a surge of regeneration moments after they are ingested.
