Are you being shortchanged by other gluta brands.? Do they really get in / absorbed? Are they not destroyed by stomach acid and stomach enzyme?
"THE ONE THAT GETS IN"
GLUTALIVE DR -The only DELAYED RELEASE Glutathione Capsule in the Phillippines today.Releases active ingredients in the small intestine for better absorption.
With “HYDROXYTYROSOL”
Do you know which antioxidant is the most powerful? Vitamin C? Beta-carotene? Green tea? ….”NO”
The world's most powerful antioxidant is something you've probably never heard of; it's a little polyphenol called “HYDROXYTYROSOL”
“HYDROXYTYROSOL” is the superstar of antioxidants - the most powerful discovered to date! It has an ORAC value (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity - its ability to absorb cell-damaging free radicals) of 68,576 µmolTE/g, - which is considered to be 15 times higher than green tea and 3 times higher than CoQ10.
What's So Special About HYDROXYTYROSOL in GLUTALIVE DR ?
100% natural solvent-free water extract of olive fruits.
Hydroxytyrosol is the major phenolic compound found in olives and provides a great part of the health benefits of both olive fruit and virgin olive oil.
The active substance is contained within product micelles on the nanoscale." giving a solubilisate with solubility in both water and fat media. Normally, the human body must convert nutrients into product micelles before it can use them.
By delivering them ready-micellised, the technology cuts the amount that would otherwise be lost in the conversion process.
A dosage of 100 mg of powder contains the hydroxytyrosol equivalent to 10 table olives or 1/2 liter or 500 ml of extra virgin olive oil, which may be difficult to consume in a normal healthy diet.
Hydroxytyrosol is an essential component of the anti-aging and wellness of the Mediterranean diet.
Hydroxytyrosol boasts the highest level of free radical absorption activity ever reported for a natural antioxidant.
Hydroxytyrosol has some other very special characteristics that contribute to its effectiveness.
It is:
• Rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream and tissues, where it can perform its free radical scavenging duties.
• The only phenol that is able to cross the blood-brain barrier, which allows it to also absorb free radicals throughout the central nervous system.
• A metabolite of the neurotransmitter dopamine, which means it may play a role in neuroprotection.
• Both fat and water soluble, giving it the highest bioavailability of any antioxidant.
HEALTH BENEFITS
SKIN CARE
Hydroxytyrosol's high antioxidant activity protects the skin from the damage of free radicals.
Brighter and more even skin tone
When exposed to sun, pollution and toxins, the skin needs more antioxidant defense to keep oxidative stress at bay and to control the production of melanin. Melanin levels in skin are responsible for darker skin tone and also for age spots. Glutathione (GSH) is a powerful antioxidant present in the body which dials down the skin’s dark pigment (melanin) naturally. GSH formation is controlled by Nrf2, the master regulator for the body’s own antioxidant defense system. the essence of olive fruits, which by activating Nrf2 stimulates the production of body’s own glutathione, helps reduce skin pigmentation and enables a brighter, more even skin tone…naturally.
GENERAL HEALTH
As a food and/or nutritional supplement because of its properties to protect blood fats from oxidative damage, thus avoiding the formation of oxidized LDL (precursor of arteriosclerosis).
Safety: Hydroxytyrosol has an excellent safety profile. No adverse effects have been demonstrated even at very high doses. The US FDA has granted hydroxytyrosol GRAS (generally recognized as safe) status.
Hydroxytyrosol and its derivatives have been the first polyphenols officially “granted to have a health claim” associated under the EC 1924/2006 Regulation. The EFSA Scientific Panel stated a positive opinion regarding hydroxytyrosol and its derivatives, in connection with the protection of blood lipids from oxidative stress.

The Most Powerful Natural Antioxidant Discovered to Date - Hydroxytyrosol
Do you know which antioxidant is the most powerful? Vitamin C? Beta-carotene? Green tea? No, the world's most powerful antioxidant is something you've probably never heard of; it's a little polyphenol called hydroxytyrosol.

Hydroxytyrosol is the superstar of antioxidants - the most powerful discovered to date! It has an ORAC value (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity - its ability to absorb cell-damaging free radicals) of 68,576 - which is considered to be 15 times higher than green tea and 3 times higher than CoQ10.

It is not well-known yet because its discovery, and extensive studies of its properties, are so recent. Yet hydroxytyrosol is already being recognized by scientists for its powerful anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant and cardioprotective properties.

What's So Special About Hydroxytyrosol?

Hydroxytyrosol is primarily found in the olive – its fruit, leaves and pulp. It was first discovered and extracted from the wastewater that resulted when green olives were rinsed in the process of making olive oil.

For decades olive oil has been known for its many healthy properties. It has long been noted that Mediterranean countries have lower rates of cardiovascular disease and cancer than other Western countries. And since the most characteristic element of the Mediterranean diet is olive oil, researchers began studying it, looking for the compound that was responsible for the anti-inflammatory and cholesterol-lowering effects.

Traditionally, the benefits of olive oil have been ascribed to its oleic acid content. However, other foods like pork and chicken are also rich in oleic acid but do not provide the same cardiovascular protection as olive oil. So scientists began to search for other properties of olive oil that might be responsible for its health-promoting effects.

That's when they found hydroxytyrosol - the polyphenol thought to be responsible for olive oil's anti-inflammatory effects. Its ability to absorb free radicals and protect cells and mitochondria from damage is quite impressive.

Hydroxytyrosol boasts the highest level of free radical absorption activity ever reported for a natural antioxidant.

Hydroxytyrosol has some other very special characteristics that contribute to its effectiveness. It is:
• Rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream and tissues, where it can perform its free radical scavenging duties.

• The only phenol that is able to cross the blood-brain barrier, which allows it to also absorb free radicals throughout the central nervous system.

• A metabolite of the neurotransmitter dopamine, which means it may play a role in neuroprotection.

• Both fat and water soluble, giving it the highest bioavailability of any antioxidant.
The Science Behind Hydroxytyrosol

In numerous human, animal and in vitro studies, hydroxytyrosol has been shown to:

• Reduce markers/indicators of inflammation including IL-10, PEG-1, C-reactive protein, COX-2, TNF-a, iNOS and others.(1)

• Support healthy mitochondrial function and significantly increase ATP energy production.(2)

• Improve the quality of life for osteoporosis patients.(3)

• Promote significant and rapid reductions in LDL or 'bad' cholesterol.(4)

• Boost eye health and reduce the risk of macular degeneration.(5)

• Have a therapeutic effect on the cardiovascular system.(6)
Additional research shows that hydroxytyrosol holds great promise for a wide variety of potential health benefits.

Neuroprotection

A two-part German study in 2007 investigating the effect of hydroxytyrosol on mitochondrial membranes in the brains of mice concluded, “...the ex vivo data provide the first evidence of neuroprotective effects of oral hydroxytyrosol intake.”(7)

In 2010, the same group of researchers conducted a study to determine whether hydroxytyrosol reduces the risk of age-dependent neurodegeneration and cognitive decline. They concluded, “The results we obtained mainly confirm our previous observation of promising cytoprotection of brain cells...”(8)

Breast Tissue Health

Because previous studies had related olive oil ingestion to a low incidence of breast cancer, researchers in Spain tested the effect of hydroxytyrosol on human breast cell lines.

They found that “...hydroxytyrosol could contribute to a lower incidence of breast cancer in populations that consume virgin olive oil due to its antioxidant activity and its protection against oxidative DNA damage in mammary cells.”(9)

Diabetic Neuropathy

In a study published last month (May 2012) using rats, Italian researchers investigated hydroxytyrosol as a potential new strategy for counteracting the progression of peripheral diabetic neuropathy.

They concluded, “The present study provides evidence of the therapeutic potential of the natural substance hydroxytyrosol in the early stage of diabetic neuropathy.”(10)
