Salu's products have been developed using the safest, most refined ingredients. Our ingredients have been derived from plants, herbs and naturally occurring compounds and extracts. We use vegetable-based capsules for speedy dissolution and safe absorption.
Vital~resV harnesses the purest form of trans Resveratrol (the stable, easily absorbed version of the molecule) in a custom blend with maqui berry, acai berry and grape seed extract. Resveratrol is a natural chemical compound found in the skin of red grapes, as well as a host of other plants and foods including mulberries, peanuts and, of course, red wine.
Vital~resV takes full advantage of Resveratrol's extraordinary ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) score of 30,000 per gram, an antioxidant rating that indicates an ability to rid the body of free radicals. According to scientists, this is one of the keys to understanding Resveratrol's role as an inhibiting agent in reducing the risk of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and age-related illnesses.
Additionally, studies identify Resveratrol as a trigger for enzyme activity that mimics the effects of a caloric restricted diet, which has been shown to increase lifespan in some invertebrates; similar activity has been reported in studies on humans. Just as encouraging, Resveratrol has been linked to slowing age-related decline in heart function.
Salu's other proprietary blend, vital~flex, combines anti-inflammatory and pain reduction powers, which have been identified in glucosamine, chondroiten, MSM (methylsufonylmethane) and white willow (a compound derived from bark of the white willow tree). The result is a potent fusion of nutritional supplements delivered in a safe, effective manner to cells and tissues.
Vital~flex also promotes blocking of NF-kappaB, which is a cellular component found in all mammals. NF-kB activation has been linked with a wide range of diseases including asthma, atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, osteoporosis, Alzheimer's and particular forms of cancer. By inhibiting NF-kB activity, vital~flex supports the human body's preventative systems while helping to reduce inflammation in joints and alleviate pain.
Vital~resV and vital~flex establish Salu International as a benchmark developer of nutriceuticals in the field of nutritional health.
