Ever since the antioxidant anti aging boom there have been a number of great products pop up on the market to fill our anti-aging and health desires. But what is really in these products and which one is best for us and our budget. I am going to review a few of the antioxidant drink leaders and let you decide what is right for you. I will include ingredients, ORAC value, price, and real testimonials. You can decide what fits you best.
We may not be sure what antioxidant drink is right for us but no one can argue that an antioxidant supplement is an absolute MUST in our day and time. What with our food being chalked full of pesticides, hormones, and ever declining nutritional value. There is no denying if we want to live long and look good we have to make an effort and take advantage of these scientific discoveries.
I am sure you have all seen Dr.Oz on Oprah and Barbara Walters and Dr. Sinclair talking about the benefits and necessity of anti-oxidants in our diet. They have also gone on and on about the miracle discovery of resveratrol. So we know we need these miracle berries and ingredients in our daily routine but with everyone taking advantage of the media hype which product is right for us?
Ok, lets start with listing a number of antioxidant drinks now available and their main ingredient. I will start with highest ORAC value to lowest.
?cPath=15&products_id=86" " Vital Fruits -contains the premium antioxidant, Resveratrol and acai, as one of its key components as well as extracts of Acai, Noni, Mangosteen and 20 more antioxidant super foods.The TOTAL ORAC value of this product is 4000 (Brunswick Lab Tested)One bottle of Vital Fruits lasts one month taking one or two shots a day.
?cPath=15" " Resvinatrol Complete -this product contains a 6000 ORAC value but only for the anti oxidant Resveratrol. So if you are a resveratrol believer. This one is for you. This drink also contains an antioxidant blend, CO Q10, Omega 3 fatty acids to support heart health. It is one of the only drinks certified to lower cholesterol due to added plant sterols.
Mona vie-this products main ingredient is acai, it contains 13 servings of fruits and vegetables in a bottle. It contains a 1027 ORAC value and it comes in a lovely wine bottle, one bottle lasts two weeks. Although a quality product you may have to find a rep to buy it as it is a multi-level company who produces it.
Purple- Contains 7 antioxident berries. The TOTAL ORAC value is 2800. It comes in individual bottles and can be somewhat pricey when you add it up to one drink a day. It requires a whole bottle(individual size) a day rather then a shot. This can result in you needing a whole pack to last a week.
?products_id=93" " Brazillian Body Shot - although this products does not claim to be an antioxidant supplement. It was, however, one of the first ones on the market to actually contain acai. It combines acai and green tea. It comes in little individual shots and is one of the more economical choices. Warning, it does have taurine and will act as an "upper". Do not drink this one at night! There have been high levels of weight loss reported with this product. Although not one of your stronger antioxidant drinks. It contains only acai where others contain multi.
Beware of products boasting ORAC values of "21,000" or millions (as this is not possible). When in doubt call and find out what lab they are tested in.
