Hollywood Trender: Viralaurin Immune, Organic Pharmacy Superantioxidant hot new finds

By April MacIntyre Aug 7, 2011, 6:40 GMT

Investigators said the findings are partly explained by chance, but noted that a well-balanced intake of “antioxidant nutrients is good for maintaining cognitive performance, especially verbal memory.”

The best new finds for food, drink and supplements are always spotted first on the trend-forward craft service tables in Hollywood, where everyone is concerned about health, well-being and looking good.

The hottest new supplements that I have been introduced to in the last month are two specialty vegan capsule organic formulas, one made in the UK, and one in the USA.

The immune system benefits from the latest formula from Reserveage Organics, an American company that we were introduced to last year.

Bolstering your defenses is a must these days. Summer will come to an end soon and then cold and flu season is on top of us once again.

To prepare, get good sleep, and try and get three colors in every meal.  Fruits and vegetables in reds, oranges, yellows, and greens. These foods contain antioxidants and vitamins A and C, which strengthen cells and help them defend against invading bacteria.

Also important are probiotic foods or supplements which can be found in yogurts, tempeh, fortified cheeses, and kefir drinks. Be sure to choose probiotic foods or supplements that contain proven strains, such as Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1 or GG, L. casei Immunitas, and Bifidobacterium animalis DN 114 001.

Also, adults who take vitamin and mineral supplements for 10 years exhibited better long-term memory skills than those who took placebos, according to a study published online in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

French researchers followed 4,500 French men and women between the ages of 45 and 60 for eight years, with half the group taking a daily supplement that included vitamins C and E, selenium, zinc, and beta-carotene, and half of the group taking placebos. After that period was up, all of the participants were given the option of taking vitamin supplements for six more years.

At the end of the six-year period, both groups were given a series of memory tests. The groups performed similarly on most of the tests, but the nutrient-taking group did better on long-term memory exercises than the placebo group.

Investigators said the findings are partly explained by chance, but noted that a well-balanced intake of “antioxidant nutrients is good for maintaining cognitive performance, especially verbal memory.”

Observed: Here is what Hollywood has discovered to help stay well.  Savvy crews and stars alike are using these two supplements to keep healthy:

Reserveage Organics is an American company that uses certified organic ingredients. The company also promotes the sustainability of nature.  The largest study ever of organic food was complete in 2007 and found that organic fruits and vegetables contain up to 40% more antioxidants than non-organic equivalents.

Reserveage ingredients help reverse the signs of aging, and are enriched with age-defying antioxidants, performance-oriented peptides, refining hydroxyl acids, essential vitamins and nutrients to promote vibrant health.  They use organic muscadine grapes directly from USDA-approved certified organic farms and French grapes grown in organic vineyards certified by Agriculture Biologique (ECOCERT).
