Nature's Sunshine Thai-Go
Benefits:
• Enhances the immune system.
• Supports the cardiovascular system.
• Promotes energy.
Thai-Go® [Vital Nutrition, Immune] is a blend of the most healthful fruits and nutritional supplements from all over the world. Nature's Sunshine Thai-Go is replete with xanthones, bioflavonoids and powerful antioxidants.
Bioflavonoids contribute to the bright colors of fruits and vegetables. In the body, bioflavonoids enhance vitamin C absorption and help maintain collagen and capillary walls. They also aid in the body’s immune-defense system. Rich in nutrition, Thai-Go was formulated to include powerful antioxidant bioflavonoids.
Free radicals are unstable molecules in search of a stabilizing electron. Our body creates free radicals from everyday living. These molecules can damage cells
and tissues, which can lead to many common health problems. Protection from free radical damage is an important step in keeping the body healthy. Thai-Go is your best bet to protect your body from free radical damage.
Antioxidants scavenge the free radicals that the body accumulates as a byproduct of energy production as well as through pollution, tobacco smoke, ultraviolet light and radiation. Antioxidants are compounds that offset “oxidants” or free radicals in the body. No two antioxidants are exactly alike. Each offers particular benefits on a cellular and/or molecular level. Some support the heart while others benefit eye health, nourish the liver, etc. Antioxidants benefit virtually every organ and body system because they mop up damaging free radicals.
Thai-Go delivers a punch of antioxidant potential with a very high ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) value. ORAC is a measurement of free radical-quenching ability. Measuring ORAC value allows us to compare the antioxidant capacity of individual fruits, vegetables, supplements and even juices. An independent lab1 found that Thai-Go has more than twice the antioxidant capacity–the power to neutralize free radicals (measured using ORAC)–as its closest competitors.
Xanthones are specific food compounds that offer immune and cardiovascular support. Researchers have investigated these compounds and know they support the immune and structural systems and provide several other health benefits.
Among Thai-Go’s key ingredients is mangosteen, a tasty fruit found in eastern tropical nations, such as Thailand. Mangosteen is known as "the queen of fruits." Recent literature cites mangosteen's benefits to include support for cholesterol levels already within the normal range and powerful support for the immune system. Mangosteen fruit and its pericarp (peel) contain the greatest known supply of compounds called xanthones, which offer powerful immune and cardiovascular support. In cooperation with Ohio State University, NSP scientists discovered three new xanthones present in the mangosteen pericarp extract used in Thai-Go.
Nature's Sunshine carefully researched ingredients high in antioxidant activity and selected only the best for this formula. In a study conducted by an independent laboratory, Thai-Go clearly outperformed other leading competitors in ORAC capacity (a measure of a product’s antioxidant strength).1 The extract of mangosteen fruit and pericarp significantly contributes to Thai-Go’s high xanthone content.
Antioxidants are getting increasing attention from the scientific community. Promising studies have led the USDA to state, "Eating plenty of high-ORAC fruits and vegetables—such as spinach and blueberries—may help slow the processes associated with aging in both body and brain." Xanthones have also attracted attention from scientists and researchers who are discovering that these compounds support the immune, structural and digestive systems, and the brain and the skin.
Other ingredients in this nutritious juice include concord and red grape, blueberry, red raspberry, red grape skin, wolfberry/gogi fruit, açai berry, pomegranate, sea buckthorn, red grape seed, green tea and apple fruit.
Also known as lycium fruit, the wolfberry has been used in Asia for thousands of years. This fruit is a favorite for supporting eyesight and for helping with maintaining already-normal blood sugar levels. Wolfberry contains polysaccharides that appear to strengthen immunity by increasing T-cell response.
Sea buckthorn berries support digestive and respiratory health and may help maintain skin health and texture. They may also provide support for the circulatory system. Sea buckthorn berries contain the antioxidants beta carotene (eye support), lycopene and beta-sitosterol (supports prostate health) and vitamins C and E.
Apple fruit extract is a concentrated source of polyphenols, plant compounds with strong antioxidant activity. Apple polyphenols have been studied for their actions in supporting cholesterol levels already within a normal range, oral health benefits, cell-protecting actions, and stabilizing mast cells for respiratory support.
Rich in anthocyanins, blueberries help protect brain cells. They support the cardiovascular system and may help support eyesight and memory. Blueberries may also offer urinary system support similar to cranberries.
The seeds, skins and fruits of concord and red grapes offer support for the cardiovascular system. Grapes may also help support artery health and elasticity. The popular antioxidant resveratrol, present in red grapes, may help support the immune system and promote longevity.
Green tea has been shown to support the circulatory and immune systems. Green tea contains the powerful polyphenol Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) which may help stimulate fat burning.
Red raspberries contain anthocyanins, which may help support the nervous and circulatory systems. They may also aid eyesight and memory. Red raspberries also contain ellagic acid, which benefits the immune system.
Pomegranate contains powerful antioxidant polyphenols, tannins and anthocyanins. This fruit may support cholesterol and blood pressure levels already within the normal range and may facilitate getting oxygen to the heart.
Found in Brazil and Peru, açai berries are known to help the body’s natural cleansing functions. They also support blood flow and help maintain cholesterol levels already within a normal range. Açai berries also contain abundant amounts of potassium.
Adults: Take 1 ounce (2 tablespoons) twice daily.
