Anti-Inflammatory Formulation

 

Description
Oxifend® Anti-inflamm is a proprietary blend of grape extracts manufactured from New Zealand grown grapes and formulated to deliver high levels of anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity.

 

Oxifend® Anti-inflamm is formulated from the extracts of two iconic New Zealand grape varieties:

• Grape Seed Extract from the seeds of Marlborough’s Sauvignon blanc grapes
  and
• Red Grape Skin Extract from the skins of unfermented
  Pinot noir grapes.

 

These fruit have adapted to the high levels of light and UV radiation that penetrate through New Zealand’s clean, clear skies by producing high levels of natural bioactives in their skin and seeds. For example the seeds of Marlborough’s sauvignon blanc grapes have much higher levels of antioxidants than seeds from other grape varieties from around the world. In addition the use of unfermented pinot noir skins ensures that all the bioactives are retained in the skin and have not been leached out during the wine making process.

 

Sustainable and Traceable
Oxifend® Anti-inflamm is produced from fruit that is grown in sustainably managed vineyards, and is fully traceable back to these vineyards.

 

Naturally Extracted
Oxifend® Anti-inflamm is naturally extracted using our 100% Aqua Pure® process that uses only water to extract the bioactives from these fruit. This means that the bioactives are extracted in their natural form and not damaged by solvents, or harsh chemical extraction methods. In addition no chemical or solvent residues are in the final product. Freeze drying of the final product ensures the activity of the extracts is maintained and not destroyed.

 

 

Purity is assured from independent tests that show that Oxifend® Anti-inflamm is free from pesticides and heavy metals, and no GMOs are used at any stage of the process.

Functionality
Anti-inflammatory - Oxifend® Anti-inflamm was shown to completely inhibit the activation of cells involved in inflammation. This was measured as the LPS-dependent production of TNF- a in isolated rat neutrophils.

 

 

Antioxidant - Oxifend® Anti-inflamm is a powerful antioxidant as determined from its ORAC activity compared to other fruits or antioxidants like vitamin C.
