In fact, a John _x000d_Hopkins study found that only 28% and 32% of American adults met the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) guidelines for fruit and _x000d_vegetable intake respectively.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFortunately, Life Extension Mix is here to help. This state-of-the-art multi-nutrient formula is jam-packed with the purest and most potent _x000d_forms of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and unique vegetable, fruit, and botanical extracts. In every daily dose of Life Extension Mix, you'll _x000d_get an extensive array of nutrients, including:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDelphinidins\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFound in dark red fruits, delphinidins are potent anthocyanin compounds that activate the production of nitric oxide, enabling vascular _x000d_relaxation and supporting healthy blood pressure. They can also help to ease inflammatory factors and glycation, stimulate the immune system, and _x000d_maintain healthy blood sugar levels within normal range, which helps to control metabolic balance. With Life Extension Mix, you get the same _x000d_amount of delphinidins found in 3¼ cups of raspberries or 5¾ cups of dried plums.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePterostilbene\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn addition to its already broad spectrum of botanical extracts, our formula also contains \u003cem\u003etrans\u003c\/em\u003e-pterostilbene — a compound found _x000d_naturally in blueberries and grapes that has been shown to have beneficial anti-aging effects on gene expression and to promote healthy cognitive _x000d_function. According to Dr. Agnes Rimando, a leading expert in the biology of stilbenes, \"Stilbenes have diverse pharmacological activities which _x000d_include enhanced insulin sensitivity and increased lifespan.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePyridoxal 5'-phosphate \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGlycation occurs when sugars react with your body's proteins and lipids, forming non-functioning cross-linked structures called Advanced _x000d_Glycation End Products (AGEs). While glycation is a normal consequence of aging, it is far from desirable. In addition, the effect of glycation _x000d_can be seen outwardly in the form of cross-linked proteins in normal aging skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo combat these effects, each daily dose of Life Extension Mix provides 100 mg of the expensive pyridoxal 5'-phosphate — a metabolically _x000d_active B6 that has been shown to protect against glycation reactions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStandardized pomegranate extract\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePublished studies show that pomegranate helps maintain healthy cardiovascular function and healthy DNA structure in prostate cells. Our _x000d_pomegranate extract is standardized to provide the biologically active punicalagins that are so unique to this fruit. These punicalagins are 100% _x000d_water-soluble, have a remarkable 95% absorption rate, and are highly potent at inhibiting free radicals. That means that they not only absorb _x000d_much better than other natural antioxidants, but they also have a superior antioxidant capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA daily dose of Life Extension Mix provides the punicalagins and other polyphenols found in up to 2.6 ounces of pomegranate juice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlueberry extracts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe potent natural antioxidants blueberry anthocyanins have demonstrated properties that extend well beyond inhibiting free radicals, while _x000d_blueberry's active constituent (pterostilbene) promotes healthy lipid and glucose levels for those already within normal range.Even more exciting _x000d_is that these blueberry constituents (pterostilbene and anthocyanins) may help protect DNA structure. Life Extension Mix features the wild _x000d_blueberry extract that provides the most active constituents found in this health-promoting fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStandardized green tea extract\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn recent years, a multitude of positive studies have been published about the health benefits of green tea. The active \"polyphenol\" _x000d_constituents of green tea have been found to possess remarkable biological activities that include inhibiting LDL oxidation and neuronal _x000d_peroxidation, while maintaining healthy DNA structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLife Extension Mix's daily dose contains 325 mg of a decaffeinated green tea extract that is standardized to provide 98% of the active _x000d_polyphenols that scientists attribute to green tea's multiple health benefits. That's equivalent to drinking about one and a half cups of green _x000d_tea per day. What's more, green tea powdered extracts have been shown to absorb 60% to 90% better into the bloodstream compared with drinking _x000d_green tea itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStandardized vegetable extracts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost multivitamin supplements provide no vegetable extracts at all, but Life Extension Mix offers a wide array of them, including 8 mg of _x000d_luteolin, a flavonoid found in parsley, basil, celery, and other foods. Luteolin has been shown to provide DNA protection from oxidative damage _x000d_and to inhibit excess levels of cytokines such as interleukin-4 and interleukin-13.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBroccoli contains several active constituents, with sulforaphane being the most significant because of its unique detoxification and DNA-_x000d_protecting effects. Our formula features a concentrated broccoli mixture with standardized extracts of sulforaphane and glucosinolates, _x000d_compounds attributed to broccoli's multiple protective benefits, as well as gene-protecting chlorophyll.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA daily dose also provides 200 mg of calcium D-glucarate (supplying 175 mg of D-glucarate), a phytonutrient found in grapefruit, apples, _x000d_oranges, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts. D-glucarate effectively supports a detoxification process that helps to remove DNA toxins from the _x000d_body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLife Extension Mix also contains 60 times more lutein and 10 times more lycopene than popular one-per-day vitamins. Lutein, an extract found in _x000d_corn and in leafy greens such as kale and spinach, has been shown to help maintain critical pigments in the eye macula, while lycopene from _x000d_tomatoes helps to maintain DNA structure and protect against LDL oxidation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStandardized fruit extracts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn addition to our standardized pomegranate and wild blueberry extracts, Life Extension Mix also features fruit extracts such as bilberry, _x000d_grape seed, and citrus bioflavonoids to provide healthy circulation throughout the body and maintain healthy DNA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur unique formula is fortified with maqui berry and tart cherry for their antioxidant benefits for heart health as well as muscle and joint _x000d_function.

Life Extension _x000d_ Mix provides 10 mg of a sesame lignan extract to supply the direct benefits of the lignans and to augment the effects of vitamin E and other _x000d_nutrients in the body such as gamma-linolenic acid (GLA).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNutrients to maintain healthy blood glucose levels\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChromium, magnesium, and biotin are necessary to maintain healthy blood sugar for those already within normal range. In addition to highly _x000d_absorbable forms of magnesium and a super high-potency biotin, Life Extension Mix contains 500 mcg of Crominex 3+, a highly stable, biologically _x000d_active cutting-edge chromium complex. Studies on the benefits of chromium supplementation show that doses exceeding 200 mcg a day are required _x000d_for optimal effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-potency vitamin D3\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eResearchers today are concerned that many people are not supplementing with enough vitamin D, a critical nutrient for maintaining bone _x000d_density and healthy cell division. In fact, a review in the New England Journal of Medicine suggested that recommended intakes for vitamin D are _x000d_inadequate and need to be increased to at least 800 IU of vitamin D3 per day. Currently, most experts in the field believe that intakes of _x000d_between 1,000 and 10,000 IU for adults will lead to a more healthy level of serum 25(OH)D, at approximately 50-80 ng\/mL.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach daily dose of Life Extension Mix provides 2,000 IU of vitamin D3. What's more, this formula contains only 500 IU of preformed vitamin A. _x000d_Preformed (not beta-carotene) vitamin A may interfere with the benefits of vitamin D, yet most multivitamins contain between 5,000 and 25,000 IU _x000d_of preformed vitamin A.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCyanidin-3-glucoside (C3G) \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLife Extension Mix contains 1.25 mg of C3G to support eye health.
