| Nutravex Ingredient Description
Resveratrol
is a naturally occurring phytoalexin produced by some plants in response to injury or fungal infection. It is also extracted from the shrub, Polygonum Cuspidatum. Phytoalexins are chemical substances produced by plants as a defense against disease. Resveratrol occurs in the vines, roots, seeds and stalks but the highest concentrations are found in grape skins and red wines. Resveratrol interferes with all three stages of cancer formation: Initiation, Promotion and Progression. It is believed that Resveratrol is behind the French paradox (despite the French having diets high in saturated fats, they suffer relatively low incidence of coronary heart disease).

Bioperine
is an extract obtained from the black pepper fruit that is cultivated in the damp, nutrient-rich soil regions of southern India . The delicate pepper berries are harvested just prior to ripening and then sun dried to assure optimum maturity and quality. Bioperine, in the patented form, has been clinically tested in the United States. The studies showed Bioperine significantly enhances the bioavailability of various nutrients and increases absorption of other supplements.

Trace Minerals:
Plant derived minerals play an important role in providing the essential minerals our bodies are missing from poor eating habits and depleted foods. Minerals initiate, regulate and control every organ and function in our bodies. Minerals are the catalysts that support enzyme function, protein digestion, metabolism, cellular electrolyte impulses and billions of chemical reactions that keep the body functioning properly.
