Anti-Aging Gerovital Gh3 Health Supplement

Startling New Evidence
By David L. Kern, Thu Dec 8th

Six years ago, government scientists announced what may be themost important news of your lifetime. Did you get the memo?_____________________________

What if you could actually slow your rate of aging, and livehealthier longer, simply by eating certain foods? U.S.Government scientists now say it’s possible.

Floyd P. Horn, then Administrator of the scientific research armof the USDA, broke the exciting news in February 1999.

“Young and middle-aged people,” said Horn, “may be able toreduce risk of diseases of aging -- including senility -- simplyby adding high-ORAC foods to their diets.”

I don’t know about you, but I find that statement tremendouslyexciting: “simply by adding high-ORAC foods.”

Buddy, Can You Spare Some ORAC?

Unfortunately, most Americans have no idea that there may be asimple solution to preventing- or at least postponing- theravages of decline, disease, and feeble old age.

ORAC stands for Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity. It’s a testdeveloped by the USDA and Tufts University to measure theantioxidant speed and power of foods and supplements. The ORACtest is quickly becoming the accepted standard for comparingantioxidant capacity.

And as you may know, oxidative stress, or free-radical damage,is implicated in all diseases associated with aging, includingcancer, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, anddiabetes- a short list of the 5 major killers of Americans.

She Told You So

An easier way to understand ORAC is to look at particular foods.Let’s take spinach, for example. We all know spinach is good forus. Mom said so. And Popeye.

When USDA scientists tested spinach, they found it has an ORACvalue of 1260 units per serving. So spinach qualifies as a“high-ORAC food,” which may help slow the aging process.

It turns out Mom was right. She knew it would keep youhealthier. But she probably never told you that spinach may keepyou younger- to actually help you age more slowly.

Sound the Alarm

We have an epidemic of age-related disease in America. Thestatistics are shocking. The CDC (Centers for Disease Control)in Atlanta now says that 80% of elderly Americans have at leastone chronic disease. And 50% have two or more!

And the ORAC tests help explain these terrible numbers. Thetruth is, our diets are woefully deficient in nutrient-dense,high-ORAC foods.

USDA researchers estimate that you need somewhere around 5,000ORAC units in your diet every day to get

the ORAC benefits thatslow aging and prevent disease.

But they also estimate that the average American gets only 1,200ORAC units a day. This means that most of us are eating our wayto one or more of the chronic diseases of aging.

Is it any wonder, then, that the diseases of aging are out ofcontrol? The average American gets less than the antioxidant(ORAC) value of one serving of spinach every day.

So what do you do if you hate spinach? No worries! There aremany foods that rank high on the ORAC scale. Many deliciousfruits and vegetables have high ORAC values: prunes, raisins,blueberries, blackberries, kale, alfalfa sprouts, and Brusselssprouts are all rich in ORAC. Just find the ones you like, andeat more of them.

Vitamin C, a common health supplement, scores 1,890 units pergram. (For comparison, spinach delivers 12.6 units per gram) Andthat’s another very good reason to supplement your diet withantioxidant vitamins.

But if you want to get serious about a true anti-aging diet,there are specialty food ingredients available that deliver farhigher ORAC values than ordinary foods and vitamins.

The Next Level of ORAC

Scientists are now testing “superfood” antioxidants that cangive you astonishing ORAC protection- much higher than ordinaryfoods and vitamins.

One of these new generation ORAC foods, derived from the skin ofimmature apples, tests as high as 13,000 per gram on the scale-over 1000 more powerful than spinach!

Anti-aging enthusiasts are now using these super-antioxidantORAC foods to get maximum protection for aging and relatedphysical and mental decline.

Why? Because high-ORAC foods may slow aging. And thenext-generation ORAC food ingredients are showing remarkablehealth benefits in human and animal studies, against the samediseases associated with aging- heart disease, cancer, diabetesand Alzheimer’s.

So let me ask you:

> If you are growing older

> If 80% of older Americans have at least one chronic disease

> If the USDA says that high-ORAC foods may slow aging

isn’t it time that you consider adding a lot more high-ORACfoods to your diet?

Or maybe, you didn’t get the memo.
