PHYTONUTRIENTS

The old saying "eat your vegetables" probably holds more truth than originally intended. Not only do most fruits and vegetables have little or no fat, cholesterol or sodium, but they are also among the most nutrient-packed foods in the diet. Your daily need for vitamins, including vitamin C, folic acid and beta-carotene, can be satisfied almost exclusively from fresh fruits and vegetables.

Researchers have found that people who eat lots of fruit, vegetables, beans and grains have a remarkably lower risk of coronary heart diseases and cancers than people whose diets mainly consist of meat and dairy products. Part of the benefit undoubtedly stems from the fact that plant foods are low in fat and high in vitamins, minerals and fiber, but the overall benefit seems greater than the sum above. This is now being attributed to phytonutrients. Phytonutrients are different form vitamins and minerals, in that they have no known nutritional values. But they have been associated with the prevention and/or treatment of at least four leading causes of death in this country, including cancers, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and hypertension. Phytonutrients are present in a number of frequently consumed foods, especially fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes and seeds. One of the phytonutrients is Ellagic Acid, a type of phenolic acid found in strawberries and raspberries. It reduces the genetic damage caused by carcinogens like tobacco smoke or air pollution. It does this by affecting the carcinogen, and also, possibly, by directly protecting the cell's genetic material. Although eating 5 servings of fresh, raw fruits and vegetables is the best choice to obtain a healthy diet, it is difficult for people who are busy or with selective diets. So taking an alternative is very important and practical. LifeTime's Orchard Delight and Garden Delight supplements are a breakthrough, which can bring back the balance of your diet. Garden Delight is constituted by a wide variety of whole vegetable concentrates, botanical extracts, enzymes and probiotics. Likewise, Orchard Delight is primarily made from a wide variety of whole fruit concentrates, fruit juice concentrates, botanical extracts, enzymes and probiotics. They are both rich in natural vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin C, beta-carotene, folic acid, vitamin E, calcium, phosphorus, iron and zinc. LifeTime Orchard Delight and Garden Delight are whole food supplements, which contain ingredients that are pure in natural form, with no artificial flavoring, coloring or additives. Natural nutrients have higher biovavalility than artificial ones. And all the ingredients are in concentrated powder form, some of them extracts, so they provide a much higher density of vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients than fresh, raw fruits, vegetables and botanicals do. The foundation for a healthy life is a combination of a good diet and a healthful lifestyle. High consumption of fruits and vegetables is a proven healthy diet. No matter if you can take five servings of fruits and vegetables daily or not, LifeTime can provide you extra nutritional benefits or make up the nutritional needs of our daily life.
