Health-conscious consumers interested in the health-enhancing antioxidant benefits of botanicals have made superfruits more popular than ever. NutraGenesis is introducing Wellberry�, the new and improved, patent-pending functional ingredient in the superfruit category. Wellberry� features high antioxidant value, scientifically validated human health benefits, and substantiated structure/function claims in a diverse range of categories including: Antioxidant, Anti-Aging, Immune Support, and Cellular Protection. Wellberry's advanced, new formula possesses an ORAC of 2895 μmole TE/g which is more than twice the level of ascorbic acid and other regular Vitamin C ingredients. Wellberry� is a novel combination of superior, GRAS-affirmed, proprietary forms of two of nature's most power-packed antioxidants ---- a multi-patented extract of the renowned Ayurvedic superfruit antioxidant, Indian Gooseberry (also called Amla), and an extraordinary, new, more effective form of Vitamin C called Transport C-Plus™. This merging of outstanding ingredients has created a formulation that provides superior, fast-acting, long-lasting antioxidant activity for improved cellular protection and whole body health.
Indian Gooseberry ---- A Revered Adaptogenic Superfruit Antioxidant Indian Gooseberry, the "Fruit of Immortality", has been used in Ayurvedic medicinal formulations such as Chyawanprash for over 5,000 years and is considered to be Ayurveda's foremost restorative, rejuvenative tonic. Both traditional use and scientific research has shown that Indian Gooseberry helps promote vitality, longevity and a defense against aging, resistance to environmental stressors, skin and digestive health, and healthy metabolic function. Its superior, broad spectrum antioxidant properties are derived from powerful, low molecular weight hydrolysable tannin polyphenols that are extracted and concentrated in the patented Indian Gooseberry extract used to make Wellberry�. These continually recycling bioactives provide long lasting "cascading" antioxidant activity, unlike most antioxidants which quickly lose effectiveness after neutralizing free radicals. Indian Gooseberry's adaptogenic properties help balance bodily functions and enhance Wellberry's wellness profile beyond the standard benefits provided by generic antioxidants.
Transport C-Plus™ ---- The Only Proprietary Vitamin C Source Enriched with Alpha Lipoic Acid In addition to Indian Gooseberry extract, Wellberry's new and advanced formula contains Transport C-Plus™, the new absolute Gold Standard of Vitamin C ingredients. Vitamin C is an essential nutrient with many functions in the body including antioxidant protection, immune support, relief of inflammation, and cardiovascular health. Transport C-Plus™ in Wellberry� is a superior form of Vitamin C because its multi-patented formulation contains a unique blend of buffered Vitamin C and alpha lipoic acid. Alpha lipoic acid, itself, provides powerful antioxidant protection. Studies have shown that it also regenerates Vitamin C and prevents premature degradation to increase the bioavailability and effectiveness of Vitamin C in cells. Transport C-Plus™ provides enhanced Vitamin C activity without causing stomach upset and diarrhea, adverse effects that are often observed with other forms of Vitamin C.
Wellberry� Applications Wellberry� is regulatorily compliant for both dietary supplement and food and beverage applications utilizing a number of different delivery systems. For dietary supplements, Wellberry� can be used in tablets, capsules, stick packs, effervescents, and liquids.

So if you are interested in supercharging your superfruit product with a high antioxidant ingredient with proven health benefits and substantiated structure/function claims, count on patent-pending Wellberry� for a real competitive advantage ---- it's the very "berry" best!
