Get ready for tomorrow's nutritional science Today right here, right now. Hello,
and welcome to Invite Health Radio. I am doctor Amanda Williams, Scientific director
at Invite Health, and happy New Year to everyone. I was last with
you just before we entered into twenty twenty four, so we're off to a
good start, well at least I am for twenty twenty four. As you
all probably know, I'm a huge Michigan fan, so winning the National Championship
game this week was highly exciting for me. I will admit I was a
little nervous. Had to turn to that bottle of theanine before the game so
I could remain calm, and that's my go to I give that advice to
anyone who is heading out to any sporting event or something that drives up your
your angst a bit is stop by invite health and get some lthenine. That
is that wonderful amino acid that is derived from green tea, and it just
does such a great job. It's very fast acting, which is a wonderful
thing. It's not one of those supplements where you need to, you know,
take it for three months before you start to see the difference. So
not that those are bad. Look at a product like cartilage HX, for
example, we have to build up a nice steady state of cartilage HX before
you really start to see the true benefits, which is why the clinical research
studies on type two under natured collagen, which is what's found in cartilage HX,
that is shown to be effective right around that eight week window of taking.
Now that's not to say that people don't see the benefit of that within
the first week, because we're all unique and we're all different. So but
but in any event, althionine is quick acting. So if you are going
to be heading out to a football game, I know in New York that's
not the case. I still have hope because uh the Lions they get to
play tomorrow should be interesting. We have the return of Stafford back in Detroit,
so we shall see and Uh. I will definitely be tuning in tonight
just to see what happens with with the Dolphins heading out to Kansas City.
Goodness gracious, it's going to be cold there. I think, uh probably
the fans may may decide to stay home. There's always those brave fans.
But I mean, that's incredibly cold, is what they're expecting. I think
it's supposed to be like minus five at kickoff, and that's not even with
the windshills. So that's just the That would not be my cup of tea,
let's put it that way. But in any event, I was over
the moon happy that Michigan won, and then I got right back to it
and got into my science and really diving into what we're going to be doing
at Invite Health as we move through twenty twenty four. And so we have
a lot of really great things that we are working on behind the scenes,
and myself and Jerry Hickey will keep you all up to date on the latest
news. But one of the things that I will say is that right now
we have a flash sail going on on our immunity multi vitamin, so definitely
take advantage of that this weekend. Stop by one of our stores. If
you're not going to be out and about but you still want to take advantage
of that, go to our website invitehealth dot com and you can see that
we have significantly lowered the price on that immunity multivitamin. So do take advantage
of that. And remember that is a formulation that Jerry Hicky worked on where
he partnered up Elderberry extract along with the nucleic acids, and so the nucleotide
complex, which we know definitely helps to enhance our immune defenses, partnered with
that Elderberry really gives you a heightened ability during cold and flu season to batten
down any little viruses that are out there in the environment. And we have
found that when people started to take this, not only do they have this
added layer of support for their immune system, but they feel really good energy.
And that makes sense to us because it's the core multi vitamin is the
backbone to this product. So you have the activated b vitamins, you get
all those wonderful carotenoids, you get the power of citrus bioflavonoids in this,
and then you also have the added support coming from the nucleotides as well as
the Elderberry. And remember with whenever you're looking at a formulation such as this,
and you may think in your mind, well, I'm already doing an
immune system routine, so I don't really need an immune multi vitamin. But
always keep in mind that there's many side benefits that go along with these different
nutrients, including GI benefits. So interestingly enough, we know that the nucleotides
have been studied, so nucleotide supplementation exactly what we use in our formulation.
These have been studied in the setting of muscle recovery and athletes, for example,
as well as looking at the way in which the immune system obviously is
supported through the action of the nucleotides. But they have really been able to
zero in on the GI support. So for folks who deal with conditions such
as al certificatelitis or Crohn's disease, irritable bowel, supplementing each day with nucleotides
very very helpful. Same thing with Elderberry. You know, clearly we can
look at the clinical research trials. They did a really lovely meta analysis where
they populated the data from multiple clinical studies. This was published in the British
Journal of Complementary Medical therapy, and this was two years ago. I believe
that this study came out where they were looking at the multiple uses of elderberry
extract when it came to preventing and treating respiratory problems, So not just for
viral infections, for example, but also for people who you know, maybe
have chronic respiratory conditions such as asthma or chronic bronchitis. So populating all of
the data, they could clearly see that elderberry is an excellent alternative to some
of those over the counter harsher medications that people turn to during cold and flu
season and the way that it is working to enhance the immune system defenses,
which is a great thing. But you can also look at many other clinical
research trials with elderberry extract. In the Journal of Food Science Nutrition in twenty
twenty three, they looked at and this I always find these studies interesting because
oftentimes, let's just say they have a big study and they have a thousand
people in it, and they're looking at elderberry extract for its use in upper
respiratory infections and for folks who you know come across the common cold or influenza.
And then they look at other markers. So outside of just looking at
the immune system response and let's just say happenstance, they're like, well,
you know what, let's look at other markers for inflammation. And one of
the most fascinating studies that came out and they published the findings in twenty twenty
three. This was out of a university over in the UK, but they
could see how elderberry xtract was actually improving endothelial function. So this is a
wonderful side benefit if you are using our immunity multi vitamin because you may think,
well, what the heck is endothelial function? Well, when you look
at your your blood vessels, the lining of those blood vessels are through endothelial
cells. And if those endothelial cells are getting beat up for whatever reason,
whether it's high blood pressure, just overall systemic inflammation that's occurring the aging process
alone, we know that there's the correlation between endothelial diss function or beat up
en ethelial cells and athosclerosis. So we don't want to have in a sense
hardening of the arteries as they used to always call it. So this study
was designed to look at the way in which elderberry extract was working to improve
upon the function of the circulatory system. And I sit back and I look
and I say, you know, this is what's so wonderful about nutritional science
is when you can look at a nutrient that has been so well studied,
and you know the clinical evidence and the documentation on elderberry extract for upper respiratory
infections and the way in which our immune system responds to supplementation with elderberry extract,
which is why it's been used globally for so many decades. But then
when you see, wow, this same nutrient can enhance our endothelial function and
it can lower markers for inflammation. They were looking at how through supplementation of
elderberry extract levels of things such as TNF alpha, which is the main marker
for inflammation, they could see these levels coming down. So this is a
wonderful thing. And when you start to look at the biochemical aspects or the
bioactive components to a product such as elderberry, and you say, oh,
okay, well, it's because it has high levels of these powerful anthoscionis it
has these powerful levels of antioxidant, so it helps the body increase your natural
antioxidant capacity. So we do a much better job at fighting off free radicals.
So not just free radicals that we come in contact with just in our
everyday environment, but also free radicals that build up in our system. So
at the end of the day, the point that I'm making is that our
immunity multivitamin is on this wonderful flash sale right now. Take advantage of that.
I think they have it discounted down to twenty four ninety five. I
mean, this is a powerful daily multivitamin with those keylated minerals, so that
you know that those minerals are going to be able to bypass that harsh stomach
acid environment make its way into the blood stream, so that you can actually
benefit from nutrients such as chromium and vanadium to help with blood sugar regulation.
That you're getting those bioactive b vitamins to help with cell detoxification and to support
mood. So this is why when people use the Immunity multivitamin or any of
our daily multivitamins, they feel that energy. They can actually feel the difference,
and that should speak volume to you as to why when you're using an
invite health multivitamin, you see that shift in your energy and your overall sense
of well being. It number one tells you the powerful way in which we
create our multivitamins, but it also should indicate to you how your diet itself
is truly lacking the adequate exposure to those nutrients. And when we have any
type of nutritional deficiency, we're not getting adequate exposure to things such as chromium
or magnesium in our foods, then this can blunt the proper function of certain
pathways in the body. So the body will, you know, continue to
move, move, but it's struggling in a sense to do that. So
if we get these nutrients back on board, we start to create this environment
that everything is working like a very well oiled machine. And that's what we
want for ourselves. We want our body to be able to function in its
full capacity each and every single day. So through the inclusion of the immunity
multivitamin, not only do we gain the benefit of saying, well, yeah,
it's cold and flu season and there's a lot of people out there coffing
and crouping and sneezing and blowing their nose, and I don't want to get
whatever they have. So it gives you that support. But at the same
time, it's also yielding you the benefit when it comes to GI health,
when it comes to overall systemic health for your circulatory system, so you get
a lot of benefits when it comes to supplementing with the immunity multivitamin. So
I have to take a quick break. Definitely pop into our website right now
invite health dot com. Check out that immunity multivitamin. I have a lot
more ground to cover, so stick around with me. I will be right

Scientific director at Invite Health, and happy Saturday to everyone. Sounds like up
there in New York, you guys are not going to be so much affected
by the Arctic blast that is hitting so many other areas of the country,
So I guess that's a good thing. And I don't think you guys have
had much snow up there either. So it's just one of those odd winters.
And it's been very strange here in South Florida. It's we've had a
lot more cold days than normal. Not that I'm you know, complaining woe
is me, but it's it's oddly been quite cold and very windy. So
the last two days have been quite warm. Yesterday, I think it was
about a high of eighty five and it was very very muggy. But this
is coming off of you know where we haven't been even really going above seventy
So for South Florida, that's a little bit chilly. And with the wind,
all goodness is it just doing a walloping on our avocado tree. It's
amazing, like the leaves stay on the tree, but just the wind itself,
it just it's very harsh. So we're hoping that our avocado tree will
will thrive and survive even in this harsh winter that we're experiencing here in South
Florida. Interesting study came out. I want to talk to you about this
one. John's Hopkins Medicine. They just published a study into twenty twenty four
here talking about isoflavones. Now, why are isoflavones so darn beneficial? This
is what they're talking about. And they were actually looking at this in the
in the setting of cancer. So they said that the natural compounds derived from
soi, hence derived giving us the isoflavone because that's what it's considered is the
soy isoflavone. It's this very powerful antioxidant, this active bioactive constituent that's contained
in the soy itself. And they found that this can actually be quite beneficial
at that cellular level when it comes to proper cell division, and these are
all key things that we want to think about. So they were looking at
trying to reduce the risk in breast cancer recurrence. So they were looking at
women who have a history of breast cancer and then looking at the correlation between
a variety of different you know, natural based nutrients and how those would have
an influence. So they were looking at cruciferous vegetables, which you know,
we have our indul three carbonyl with DIM formulation that is derived directly from those
cruciferous vegetables, which is like you're broccoli and your califlower, all of those
power nutrients that are contained in those veggies, which is why you want to
include those into your diet each day, the foods that you were taking in.
But also via supplementation. We've seen study after study with indul three carbonyl
and DIM and the effectiveness of those two constituents when it comes to different types
of cancers. In particular, they have been predominantly studied in the settings of
breast cancer and metrial cancers as well as prostate cancers through major research universities,
String Cancer Institute, Carmanos Cancer Institute up in Detroit, so we know the
effectiveness of that. But they were also looking at green tea and the power
of EGCG when it comes to proper cell division. And then they really zeroed
in on the soy isoflavones. And there's a reason why they wanted to hone
in on that. When you look at areas of the world where there are
a higher intake of isoflavones in the diet, you could see a direct correlation
between a reduced risk in certain types of cancers, including breast cancer. So
they said, well, there must be something, you know, if you
see some a part of the world and they have a high consumption of soy
isoflavones in their diet and then they have a very low overall risk in terms
of the entire area when it comes to breast cancer, prostate cancers, there's
obviously something that's you know, correlating with this. And so they were looking
at these statistical ways to which these different nutrients, including the cruciferous vegetables,
the green tea extract, and that soy isoflavone. So I just wanted to
mention this because I always find it fascinating when you have a major institute such
as Johns Hopkins. That's really taking the time to say, you know,
these phyto nutrients, they do pack a punch and while they may not be
the answer for every single person who is dealing with a particular cancer, it
may be a really wonderful AJUVNCT therapy. And you see this through you know,
research done out of MD Anderson Cancer Institute in Texas, and so I
just like to see that they continue to reinforce and look at these nutrients.
Now in our product line, we have isoflavones contained in different formulations, including
the Menopause Advanced. There is a reason why I put that novasoi into that
product looking at the way in which those isoflavones have been studied and shown to
be highly effective. So what we use in the menopause advance, which is
different than our menopause HX. So just to make that clear, so menopause
advanced, So it's the advanced variety of that we use novasi. And the
reason why we use the nova soi is because this has been clinically studied and
it has been shown to just be a powerhouse of an isoflavone extract. Now,
looking at the way in which those isoflavones have been shown to be effective.
Is not only in the setting of hormone balance and helping the body facilitate
the removal of bad metabolites of hormone breakdown. So not to get too technical,
but as your hormones break down naturally in the body, remember your hormones,
or your chemical messengers in our system, they're very, very important.
We need to have them. They get a bad name, and it's kind
of like cholesterol. You know, everybody wants to beat up on cholesterol,
but we need cholesterol. If you don't have cholesterol, it's not a good
thing either. There's a reason why we come equipped with that, So we
always have to understand, you know, where damage can occur. And the
same thing with hormones. It's you know, having too much of something is
not a good thing, but not having enough of something also can be problematic.
So in the setting of hormones such as estrogen, for example, estrogen
breaks down and it creates these byproducts or metabolites that is what can lead to
significant problems, especially if the liver is struggling to remove that, which is
why I always zero in on you know, nutransit support liver detoxification. Every
single day, our body is trying to clear itself of you know, these
different metabolites other pollutants that we come across. So it's always key to zero
in on liver support as part of your daily supplementation routine. But looking at
the novasoi and how that novasoi has been shown to not only be beneficial when
it comes to the proper hormone balance, but also how beneficial those isoflavones have
been shown to support healthy bone density. So thinking about women going through menopause
and recognizing that bone loss or bone turnover increases significantly once estrogen levels start to
plummet. So this is once again shows you why hormones can be very important
in our health. So higher estrogen throughout our life helps to maintain bone density
and in females helps to support circulatory system our heart. So postmenopause of women
are at a much greater risk for rapid bone loss leading to osteoporosis as well
as an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. So if we are supplementing with Menopause
Advanced which contains novasoi, this powerful isoflavone extract, this is going to help
maintain healthy bone density. This has also been shown to be very helpful for
skin health. And this is one of the points that I always like to
make about our products is you may be taking it for one thing. Maybe
you are a female and you're dealing with hot flashes, and so you say,
well, you know, I'm going to go to Invite Health and I'm
going to get that menopause advanced formulation. This is definitely going to zero in
on the hot flashes that you're having, but you're also getting these side benefits
for cardiovascular health, for bone health, and for the health of your skin.
Because remember, as estrogen levels go down, this once again loses the
ability in our skin to have that kind of that tightness of the skin,
which is why women postmenopausely may start to notice more pronounced wrinkling and sagging in
their skin. So now you can see, hey, maybe this Novasoi,
which has been shown to be helpful for all of these different ways in the
body, maybe I should be supplementing with this particular product. Now, this
is partnered up with Estrog one hundred, which is a triple blend of key
herbs. Estrog one hundred is a registered trademark blend that has been shown to
be once again highly effective to the main symptoms that many women experience, not
just postmenopausally, but also perimenopausely and premenopausally. So for women who are maybe
in their twenties that feel like they get are those mood issues, feel a
little bloated, low energy, this product is definitely geared for you as well,
So don't let the name fool you. Even though it's called Menopause Advance.
This is for women of all ages and you're going to be yielding those
benefits across multiple systems. It has grape seed extract in this, so we
know the circulatory support of grape seed extract. We know how it is that
the estrog is working to target the issues with sleep. A lot of women
experience, you know, periods of insomnia or sleep disruption because of hormone loss.
We know that just generalize pain, so a lot of women will experience
what oftentimes their doctors will diagnosis fibromyalgia, but oftentimes you will find that women
as their hormone level are fluctuating, they can experience fatigue, pain in the
joints. And we know that through supplementation of stro G one hundred. This
has been shown to be highly effective and this was studied, as I mentioned,
in Women of all ages and to see those significant improvements across all of
these different markers is highly impressive. So ladies, if you're out there and
you're listening and you say, well, you know what I've been through,
you know the change of life, and I don't really have hot flashes,
but I do feel like my energy levels are low, this is a product
that you want to check out. So Menopause Advanced. If you were listening
and you have you know, a daughter who's struggling with PMS or you know
has disrupted menstrual cycles, this is definitely a product that you would like to
check out because the power of this combined New Trent formulation. It also has
Rodeola extract so it helps with that energy each day. So we're kind of
hitting all of the different marks that we need to address when it comes to
hormonal imbalances, so an excellent formulation. Have great feedback on this. Even
for women who are dealing with more significant issues such as vaginal dryness, this
definitely will target those issues, so check that product out. So that's menopause
advanced HX. I do need to squeeze in a quick break. When I
get back, I want to talk a little bit more about grape seed extract
because we have an excellent formulation a standalone grape seed extract. So I want
to talk about the science behind grape seed extract and all of the many ways
grape seed extract can enhance your overall health. So stick around with me.
I will be right back just after this. Maintain muscle mass and fuel your

We're going to invite health dot com and welcome back to invite Health Radio
im doctor Aman to Williams. Happy Saturday morning to everyone. Hopefully you've got
some plans for the weekend that include wellness and being healthy, and hopefully you
haven't already dropped your New Year's resolutions. I know we're just two weeks in
here, but this is usually that critical time. Some people give up after
the first couple of days. But that's why I always say, you know,
set a goal that is reasonable, something that's attainable. Don't set yourself
up for failure. As human beings, sometimes I think that we convince ourselves
that we can take on the world, and then that can lead to guilt
tripping ourselves, and that's never beneficial. It definitely isn't. You know.
You gotta roll with the punches, but make sure that when you do set
goals for yourself that they're sustainable. I always say, if you are carrying
around an extra fifty pounds, don't tell yourself you're going to lose all of
that weight in one month. That's not going to happen. So, you
know, work with one of our nutritional experts and they can help guide you
along your journey to wellness. It's a free service. You hear Jerry Hickey
talk about it. You hear me talk about it. This is one of
the wonderful things that Jerry Hickey did so many years ago when he started to
Invite Health. You know, we're twenty five years in now, but he
not only wanted to be the creator of these wonderful formulations and these powerhouse nutrients,
but he also wanted to back that with having the ability for people to
have a support system along their journey. And hence, this is where the
whole design of Invite Health, Caine is, we are inviting, you know,
a healthy lifestyle for you to partake in. And this is why when
you go into and Invite Health store, you can speak with a nutritional expert
and they are there to guide you. And it doesn't have to be just
about oh, let me try and figure out which supplements I'm taking today.
It may be you know, I get confused when I go into the grocery
store and I'm not exactly sure if I'm selecting the right foods or you know,
I'm trying to do these techniques to help me destress, I don't know
if I'm actually doing them correctly. So you can talk to them about a
whole variety of different issues that may pop up throughout your year. And if
you can't make it into one of our stores, give us a call and
we're happy to patch you through to one of our nutritional experts. So do
take advantage of that. Now off to the world of grape seed extract.
Grape seed extract is one of those nutrients that's been so well studied, similar
to risveratrol. Resveratrol obviously was looked at as the you know, the king
of or the queen of anti aging supplements, and it still is, you
know, I mean, there's nothing has come along where we say, wow,
you know that that really kind of overtakes what we know about risveratrol.
Now, remember not all resveratrols are created equal. So if you want a
really powerful resveratrol, you use invite Health risveratrol Max. You're getting two hundred
milligrams of trans risveratrol that folks packs a punch. And that's not even to
mention there's also grape seed extract in that as well as corstin. So it
is a power anti aging formulation that goes above and beyond when you think about
all of the benefits that you yield from supplementing with risveratrol max. But let's
just look at just isolating out just grape seed extract, and so we use
a registered trademark form known as novida, and novida is once again a reason
what makes invite Health so unique is following that science understanding that when we use
nutrients such as novida, the amount of power that brings with our formulation.
Now this is sourced in Italy, it is manufactured, you know, processed
in Italy, and then it's brought over to us. And the reason why
we source from Indena and n olvida is because of the science behind this and
the sustainability of how they're actually sourcing out those OPCs or those oleegomeric pro anthocynodens
that come from that grape seed extract. So looking at not only the the
sourcing standards that they use, but then looking at the science behind enovida.
So this is the Invite Health grape seed extract and has been studied in human
human by the way human clinical trials to maintain healthy blood pressure. We know
how it's working in the body to regulate different enzymes, which is what can
lead to that blood pressure support. We know that it can help to enhance
natural nitric oxide release, so the more nitric oxide than what we get is
vasodilation. So the more open your blood vessels are, the better blood flow
you get through your vessels. So that's one aspect. But then they said,
well, let's look outside of just the cardiovascular benefits. We can clearly
see how it has a positive effect on cholesterol. We can see its powerful
effects on the endothelial cells we just talked about endothela. But also they could
see how beneficial Novita was in improving mood and stress management. So when they
were supplementing individuals with Novida grape seed extract is what we use in our formulation,
they could see a reduction in stress in folks who are you know,
known self admitted warriors. They could see that those stress response levels were starting
to drop. So we also now know that those oleegomer pro anthocynodins are working
within that hypothalmis pituitary adrenal access and this is why when you start to look
at the full spectrum of the ways in which supplementing with Invite Health grape seed
extract can benefit your overall health. So maybe you say, you know what,
I have some you know, mild peripheral artery to my legs, feel
kind of heavy or achy. I have some circulation issues. Maybe you do
have you know, diagnosed hypertension or undiagnosed high blood pressure, but you know
that your blood pressure has a tendency to elevate, so you know this is
the product that you want to start with. You say, okay, I'm
gonna go to Invite Health. I'm going to get that grape seed extract,
but start supplementing with that. I know that this is wonderful for my vascular
system. So even if we're dealing with conditions like you know, varicose veins
for example, also quite beneficial is using this grape seed extract. Maybe you
have elevated cholesterol, you have high LDL levels, which is your low density
lipoproteins. Maybe you have elevated triglyst rides. So this is a product that
would be excellent for you to consider. We also know that when it comes
to the vaso motor issues that can occur in women as well as men,
and when it comes to hot flashes, grape seed extract once again has been
shown to be highly beneficial. Now in the Journal of Menopause over a decade
ago now, they looked at GrapeSEED extract supplementation not only in its ability to
regulate problems such as hot flashes and night sweats. But what's really interesting in
this is they were looking at the cardiovascular markers and they were also looking at
weight, and this is a big problem for both men and women as they
go through hormonal changes throughout their lives. So they designed this study where they
took a group of women who were postmenopausal and they were looking not only at
how they were feeling via supplementation when it came to their hot flashes, and
they were reduction in those. But then they looked and they said, wow,
you know, these women are actually having an improvement in their overall percent
body fat. They're losing weight. So this is a wonderful way to once
again look at grape seed extract as having this multi purpose for you. So
whether you're just thinking anti aging, thinking about blood pressure support, all of
the different ways to which grape seed extracts certainly packs a punch. Now we
have another formulation that always makes me kind of gravitate towards especially during cold and
flu season, and that's our inflammune. Inflammune is a blend of four different
types of Omega three fatty acids. So it contains green lip muscle source from
New Zealand, and then it also has perilla extract and perilla extract is a
plant based omega three. So this is providing you with ala or alfha lina
la like acid, and then the green lip muscle is giving you epa dha
plus a very unique form of omega three only found in green lip muscle,
which is known as Eta. And what is fascinating about Eta is that it's
ability, this particular form of omega three, its ability to get into our
bloodstream in a really quick manner. Is why when people supplement with our inflammune
formulation, they're like, wow, this works pretty darn quick. Well,
what it is is that ETA, that unique form of omega three that is
derived from only green lip muscle. And so when people supplement with it,
maybe you're taking it because you have some airway constriction you just got over having
the common cold, and you have a little bit of lingering, you know,
upper respiratory issues, a little viral bronchitis, which can last folks for
a very long time. Unfortunately, sometimes you can get the common cold,
and you know, six weeks out from that, you're still finding that you
feel like you have a little tightness or just some some upper respiratory issues that
are just kind of lingering. You no longer feel sick in the sense of
you know, achy fever, running nose, any of that, but you
still have that lingering upper respiratory issue. So this is where the inflammune formulation
is very helpful because it can ease inflammation throughout the airways. But this is
what's great about it. Every time I talk to someone and I say,
oh, you know, try the inflammune formulation. I've been sick with,
you know, covid or I'm sick with the flu, which you know product
should I turn to? And I say, okay, well let's add in
some inflammune right now, so we can keep that inflammation in the airways down.
But then what's always fascinating is they'll say, you know, it's amazing,
I have been dealing with arthritis, you know, in my knee and
I started taking the inflammune and within a week I was like, Wow,
you know, I feel so much better. So that's not surprising to us.
Remember that ETA, that unique form of omega three that's in the green
lip muscle that absorbs really rapidly into the bloodstreams. You get the power that
Omega three to be able to go in and target those areas of inflammation,
so including within your joints. So looking at the clinical research studies on both
the green lip muscle as well as perilla extract are incredibly impressive, not just
for the upper respiratory system, but more importantly for many folks is the way
in which it can help to create support for joint inflammation. So if you're
achy joints, inflammune is a really good choice for you. Also if you
have GI issues, this is one of those wonderful side benefits that goes along
with combining these four different omega three fatty acids. We can see the way
in which those omega threes in combination are working to lessen inflammation and GI discomfort
that can occur. So I'm going to talk about a study that was shown
in the British Journal of Complimentary Alternative medicine on how Perilla extract helps to improve
GI function. But I do need to squeeze in a break, so I'm
going to put a pin in that one and we will address it on the
flip side of this break. You are listening to Invite Health Radio and I

I can't believe we're almost at the end of the show. It flies by
sometimes, but I enjoy it. I love talking about science. Remember if
there's ever anything that I'm talking about on this show. Sometimes I don't go
into heavy detail on particular studies, and you want to know more, just
reach out to me. I'm very accessible, so you can shoot me an
email a Williams at invitehealth dot com. So that's a for Amanda Williams at
invitehealth dot com. Now, immunity multivitamin, as I mentioned, that is

dot com check that out, or stop by one of our stores this weekend
get your immunity multivitamin. Excellent choice to have on hand during cold and flu
season. We cannot outrun that, that is for sure. Now back to
perilla extract. I had mentioned that there's a study that came out of the
British Journal of Complimentary and Alternative Medicine looking at how perilla extract could gastro intestinal
discomfort So this was a randomized, placebo controlled double blind study. This is
the exact type of study design that we always seek out at INVITE Health.
We like to see the randomized, which means they have two groups of people,
and so one group will be the placebo group. The other group is
going to receive the perilla extract in this setting. But what's interesting about a
controlled double blind study is that the people who are conducting, the researchers themselves,
who are conducting this trial, they don't know which of these study participants
are in which group, So that eliminates bias, and that's key. And
I remember learning about all the different types of biases when I went through medical
school, and it was like, goodness, gracious, there's a lot of
bias out there. But at the end of the day, when we're looking
at trials, we want to always see them be randomized, placeble, control,
double blind. That's the ideal way. And so this is what we
always look at whenever we're assessing any nutrient. Now, this study was looking
at individuals who had experienced to such a degree it was affecting their quality of
life, so it was driving up additional stress, it was leading to mild
to moderate depression because of constant chronic GI issues. And as we know,
that's you know, can be considered slightly subjective because you may have one person
who is always dealing with stomach issues and they don't really ever complain about it,
but you can have someone else who is like, oh my goodness,
like I have all of this pain every single day. So they look to
the Perilla extract and they said, we know that the Parla extract is this
powerful omega three, but we also know that it's a powerful antioxidant, and
if we give individuals who are experiencing this significant GI discomfort, would this help?
And what they found was a significant improvement. Now, what was fascinating
was that this was shown within two weeks. And you're talking about individuals who
were enrolled into this study who had years of GI issues, and within two
weeks they could see the clear improvement in the symptomatic reporting on these individuals.
So this is why when you look at a formulation like infommune, folks,
I don't want you to think, oh, well, maybe that's just for
the immune system. Well, hey, anything that's for the immune system is
a wonderful thing, right, But this really does pack a punch in so
many different systems, So not just for respiratory health, but we can also
look at its benefits for our joints. We can look at its benefits for
our GI trapped So this is why we always like to address these things and
identify how when you're using it formulations such as inflamon, you may be taking
it for one reason, but you're also going to start to see the difference
a positive shift in another area. Same thing with the green lip muscle.
In the Journal of Inflow Pharmacology back in twenty twelve, they were able to
see the same thing. They were studying green lip muscle for knee osteoarthritis.
So they took a group of folks who all were like, yeah, I
have you know, knie arthritis, and they were giving them green lip muscle.
Now, the interesting find out of this was not only did they have
an improvement in their pain levels and less inflammation within the knee, but they
started to see, wow, we have an improvement in GI health. So
this is what's so nice about a product such as inflamming is that you have
this partnering, this wonderful blend of four different power omega threes. Remember our
diet, folks, doesn't matter how good you think you're eating, you're likely
not getting adequate omega threes in your diet. It's just it's a very difficult
thing to achieve. And this is why when they look at blood levels of
you know, most Americans, our ratio is so off and where we need
that ratio to be of omega six to omega three should be a two to
one, even a four to one would be acceptable, but unfortunately many Americans
are up close to to twenty to one, which shows this heightened level of
inflammation and a lessening of the protectiveness that we know omega three fatty acids actually
yield us. So even if you're eating healthy, you're adhering to a Mediterranean
diet. That's what I do. I still am aware of the fact that
I need additional supplementation of omega threes. And you have a variety of omega
threes that you can choose from at invite. Obviously, we have this inflammone
formulation excellent across the board. You get four different omegas in one capsule.
That's a great thing. We have our kryll oil advanced, so the krill
oil, remember that is not just your omega three. You also get that
very unique phosphol lipid, so it has the phosphatidyl coalin, and that phosphatyle
colin is key because this helps your brain produce more acetyl coalin moreceetyl colin is
really good for our memory, for attention and for focus. And then of
course krill naturally contains asda'santhin, so Asda's anthen is a powerful carotenoid wonderful for
eye health but also for brain health. So we know that those carotenoids are
cross functional nutrients. So carotenoids are not only great for the health of our
eye and to help fend off UV exposure coming from the sun or from your
light emitting devices like your cell phone or your computer, but they're also wonderful
for our immune system as well as for our brain. So for the connection
points in the brain, we always want to make sure that we have that
ability to have those good communication pathways, so we know that those carotenoids very
helpful. So that's the krill oil advanced. And then of course we have
our fish oil or fish oil is our most powerful in terms of total omega
three, so you get the highest yield of Omega three fatty acids. When
you use our fish oil soft gells. And remember that goes through this double
distillation process. So we source from very tiny little fish, so less likely
that they have had any type of exposure to pollutants from the ocean, and
then we go through a double distillation to remove any trace amount of contaminant from
that. And that makes a difference. I'm telling you there's a lot of
fish oils out there on the market. Not all fish oil has created the
same. It's kind of like risveratrol. Not all risveratrol is created the same.
Not all grape seed. Like I said, we use enovita. We
can trace where exactly they pulled those grapes from which vines. I mean the
traceability and the way in which we know the science behind our grape seed extract.
That's what makes it such a wonderful formulation. It's not willy nilly thrown
together. So when you're supplementing, you want to supplement with the highest potency,
the highest quality formulations. You're investing into your health. And when you
invest into your health, you don't want to cut corners. And this is
what we've been doing for twenty five years. Is we are not cutting corners.
We are following that science, We are following the research. We are
understanding how when we partner and blend different nutrients together. This is why Jerry
put the green lip muscle along with that perilla extra because understanding that when you
put four omega three fatty acids together in one capsule, the amount of benefit
you can get from that. This is why the Menopause Advanced Formulation has this
wonderful blend of registered trademark nutrients that have been shown in clinical trials to improve
upon the symptoms that so many women struggle with throughout their lives when it comes
to hormonal imbalances. So at the end of the day, you know that
when you're using any of the Invite Health formulas, they are truly backed in
that science. And for you, that should give you a lot of reassurance
because your health matters, your wellness matters, and we want to be your
partner in that. So do take advantage of that immunity multi vitamin being on
