Zambroza's Ingredients

Zambroza's special combination of ingredients synergistically provide health benefits many times greater than the individual benefits of each ingredient. This unique combination makes Zambroza the finest antioxidant drink on the market. Zambroza is made from the valued and exotic-tasting mangosteen and wolfberry fruits from the orient, which have been combined with the additional antioxidant power of red and concord grapes, raspberry, blueberry, grape seed and grape skin, applephenon and decaffeinated green tea extract. A detailed description of the health benefits of each ingredient can be seen below:-

Mangosteen:

Mangosteen is one of the most exciting fruits included in this juice blend. Mangosteen’s pericarp contains a class of super-antioxidants called xanthones which support the immune system, structural system, digestive system, brain and the skin. Three of these powerful Xanthones were discovered by Nature’s Sunshine scientists. Dr. Jerry McLaughlin (pharmacologist) explains the medicinal benefits of this Queen of Fruits: “The mangosteen is an important food throughout Southeast Asia. The healing powers of the fruit have been known for many years particularly in Thailand. Research has identified some of the bioactive components as a mixture of xanthones. These compounds possess powerful antioxidant properties but they also help to explain a whole series of healthful benefits that have appeared in recent literature”:
• Anticancer effects (involving apoptosis) in a variety of tumour types.
• Prevention of high cholesterol, a key factor in preventing atherosclerosis.
• Antibacterial effects against antibiotic-resistant bacteria, including tuberculosis.
• Antifungal activities against human fungal pathogens.
• Inhibitors of HIV-1, an important target for the treatment of AIDS.
• Inhibition of the COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes that mediate allergies and inflammation through prostaglandin E-2 synthesis.

Raspberries:

Raspberries are densely packed with powerful phytochemicals that improve health and provide needed energy. Raspberries are an excellent source of manganese, vitamin C, magnesium, potassium and B vitamins. They also contain bioflavonoids called anthrocyanins and ellagic acid which are powerful antioxidants.

Blueberries:

Blueberries contain over forty compounds that have antioxidant properties. Blueberries also contain one of the highest concentrations of anthocyanin which makes it one of the healthiest food choices in the fight against premature ageing. Blueberries have also been found to strengthen capillaries and help the body maintain healthy levels of cholesterol.

 

Wolfberry, also known as Goji Berries:

For thousands of years, Chinese healers used the fruit from the Wolfberry bush to strengthen the eyes, liver, kidneys, and build healthy circulatory and immune systems. Chinese physicians also use wolfberry for infertility. One of the key constituents of wolfberry is lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) which protects the body against cellular damage. Wolfberries also contain Carotenoids which are potent antioxidants. In-vitro results have shown a protective effect against testicular degeneration, thus providing a scientific basis for the traditional use of this plant. Pharmacological and clinical research indicate that wolfberry imparts a protective effect on the liver, and raises serum levels and macular density of zeaxanthin, which may decrease the risk for age-related macular degeneration.

Green Tea Extract:

The Chinese have known about the medicinal benefits of green tea for over 4,000 years. Today, scientific research in both Asia and the West are providing hard evidence for the health benefits of green tea, such as protection against ‘out of control cell growth’, lowering total cholesterol levels and supporting the digestive system. Published results of an 11-year population-based prospective study conducted by the National Cancer Centre in Tokyo Japan, found an inverse association between green tea consumption and distal gastric cancer among women. Those in the highest category of green tea consumption had the lowest relative risk of cancer. Another recent Japanese study found that green tea consumption was associated with a lower incidence of coronary artery disease. The more green tea patients consumed, the less likely they were to have coronary artery disease, which is the most common type of heart disease and the leading cause of death in the UK in both men and women.

Apple Juice and Peel extract:

Nature’s Sunshine scientists found that a combination of apples along with apple skins contain high amounts of antioxidant compounds called phenols. Phenols help the body maintain proper cell growth, support the circulatory system and prevent the oxidation of the bad cholesterol in fat which causes premature ageing in cells as well as inflammation and other damage. Epidemiological studies have linked apple consumption with reduced risk of asthma, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. The Women's Health Study surveyed nearly 40,000 women with a 6-9 year follow-up and found that women ingesting apples had a 13-22% decrease in cardiovascular disease risk. Apple consumption has been positively associated with general lung health, including increased lung function, as well as increased weight-loss.

Grape Juice, Seed & Skin Extracts:

Scientists have measured the health properties of grapes and found that they contain the vitamins A, B and C, as well as thirteen minerals essential to human life.

Concord grape concentrate contains anthocyanins, a class of flavonoids that give intense colour to many fruits and vegetables. Epidemiological studies have indicated that the consumption of anthocyanin-containing products is associated with a lower risk of cardiovascular disease and improvement of visual functions. In addition, concord grapes contain resveratrol, which demonstrates anti-inflammatory properties.
Red grape skin extract contains resveratrol, a powerful antioxidant that exhibits anti-inflammatory properties. In addition, red grapes contain anthocyanins, which offer an array of health-promoting benefits such as antioxidant protection and cardio-protective effects.

Red grape seed extract is a powerful antioxidant that protects the body from premature ageing, disease and decay. Grape seeds contain a class of naturally occurring compounds known as proanthocyanidins, which have been shown in scientific studies to have antioxidant power that is 20 times greater than vitamin E and 50 times greater than vitamin C. Many epidemiological studies indicate that consumption of dietary polyphenolic compounds is beneficial in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases. Other studies have shown that grape seed proanthocyanidins help protect the body from sun damage, enhance vision, improve flexibility in joints, arteries and body tissues such as the heart, and improve blood circulation by strengthening capillaries, veins and arteries.

Ingredients: Purified water, concord grape fruit concentrate, red grape fruit concentrate, blueberry fruit concentrate, reconstituted mangosteen fruit and pericarp extract, red raspberry fruit concentrate, red grapeskin extract, wolfberry lycium extract, sodium benzoate, red grapeseed extract, green tea leaves extract and apple fruit extract.
