Probiotics

The term probiotics (from pro and biota, meaning "for life") refers to living bacteria that produce health benefits. Such helpful microorganisms live naturally in every healthy person's digestive tract. They're also found in foods fermented with bacteria, such as yogurt. A small but growing body of evidence suggests that you can treat and even prevent some illnesses with foods and supplements that contain probiotics.

  Grape Seed Extract

Grape seed extract is derived from the small seeds (and occasionally the skins) of red grapes - the same kind that are pressed to make red wine. Grape seed extract is rich in flavonoids, phytochemicals that have antioxidant properties some consider even greater than the old standbys - vitamin C and vitamin E. Antioxidants are believed to prevent and control numerous ailments by safeguarding cells against the ravages of unstable oxygen molecules called free radicals. The most valuable flavonoids in grape seed extract are procyanidolic oligomers (also known as proanthocyanidins), commonly called PCOs. Beyond their antioxidant powers, PCOs are thought to improve blood circulation and help strengthen blood vessels. These actions benefit people with heart disease and cancer.

Olive leaf extract comes from the olive tree, a member of the evergreen family native to the Mediterranean region, but grown around the world.

Studies have shown that people who have taken olive oil extract have achieved a better sense of wellness. The extract acts to boost the body's ability to ward of illness and disease. Research points to olive extract's ability to stop the replication of pathogens, including bacteria and viruses, in the body.
