[What is Curcuma Longa?]

Turmeric is an herbaceous plant known scientifically as Curcuma longa. It belongs to the Zingiberaceae family, which includes ginger. Tumeric has rhizomes rather than true roots, which are the primary source of commercial value for this plant. Tumeric originates from southwest India, where it has been a stable of Siddha medicine for thousands of years. It is also a common spice in Indian cuisine and is often used as flavoring for Asian mustards.

https://www.lifeplusvitamins.com/opc85.html – Tests show how Life Plus Proanthenols OPC contains on average 4- 5 times more OPC than typical Grape Seed Extract products. Making it the most potent OPC – grape seed extract antioxidant product you can buy. Dr. Jacques Masquelier’s original OPC product.

The Proanthocyanidins (OPC) in these quality products are 100% bioavailable active proanthocyanidins from Masquelier’s OPC including pharmaceutical grade 100% residue free extracts of both Grape Seed and Pine Bark

Life Plus Proanthenols OPC stands out is the inclusion of CytoFlav-C, a secret blend of synergistic nutrients including Lemon Bioflavonoids, Hesperidin, Rutin, Quercetin and Vitamin C.

Antioxidants Protect Against Free Radical Attack

Cigarette smoke, air pollution, alcohol, drugs, radiation, and chemicals —what do all these have in common? They generate free radicals, which cause “oxidative stress”. Free radicals attack many of your vital cellular components, including cellular membranes.

They also stimulate processes that have been linked to accelerated cellular aging.

Proanthenols contains the exclusive Real OPC extracted by Berkem Laboratories from both grape seeds and pine bark as based on research by Dr. Jack Masquelier, Professor from the University of Bordeaux in Southern France.

Vascular health has been shown to be supported by supplementation with OPC.* Actually, OPC are unique among antioxidants, due to their complex mixture of different sized molecules (oligomers). This complex mixture enables them to function as an antioxidant network in-and-of themselves; they also protect other important antioxidant reserves in the body, such as glutathione and vitamin E.

Life Plus combines Real OPC with a proprietary blend of bioflavonoids including citrus flavonoids, hesperidin, rutin, quercetin, and even vitamin C. Of course, we’ve included our exclusive PhytoZyme™ Base of concentrates from over 30 specially selected fruit, vegetable, and herbal concentrates to further enhance its benefits.

Supports Collagen

In addition to antioxidant protection, Real OPC also support collagen and help maintain elastin throughout your whole body. These two critical proteins are major components of all your connective tissues and organs. They are responsible for maintaining structural integrity as well as the elasticity of all the tissues throughout your body.*

This includes your joints, blood vessels, skin, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and even your heart. By maintaining healthy levels of structural collagen and elastin, your body is able to continue to function more efficiently and maintain its youthful strength and flexibility longer.*

The OPC in Proanthenols actually attach to “reactive sites” on collagen molecules and protect them from free radical attack. This is one of the reasons they are so protective and so valuable for your circulatory system.

Supports Vision

Double blind studies have shown that OPC actually strengthen capillaries (the tiniest of all blood vessels) while using as little as 100 mg per day.

A clinical study has also demonstrated that OPC help to maintain and support visual performance in the dark and after exposure to glare in healthy people with normal vision. Research at Loma Linda University, which showed protective effects of OPC on blood vessels in various experimental models, has also suggested that OPC may play a role in helping to maintain healthy mental function as people age.

Let’s look at the source of this natural protection, Ocular Lens Pigment or OLP. OLP is a natural substance in the eye that filters blue light and protects the macula. At the beginning of our lives, when we are children, there is no OLP presence in our eyes, this pigment is build up over our lifetime, and we finally have a full complement of OLP sometimes after the age of 65. In some cases, this may be even later, at age 75 or older.

OLP provides natural protection from the effects of the blue light that occurs naturally in our environment, so when we remove this pigment with a cataract surgery, we essentially return the patient to the state of a child, with no natural defense against blue light.

So can we engineer a lens that provides blue light filtration in a way that commences with nature? Can we make that happen?

Yes, we can. With BluTech.

BluTech lenses filters the damaging blue light in exactly the same way that nature does. BluTech is a lens monomer that is infused with synthesize ocular lens pigment, BluTech is not a blue blocker or a tinted lens.

There is a slight champagne tint to the lens, which is an indicator that the patient is wearing a genuine BluTech product and is receiving the full benefits of the best blue light protection available. Filtering Blue light in the best and most natural way is the best reason to put your patients in BluTech lenses.

BluTech is not a coating that selectively deflects small bands of blue light, BluTech lenses filters more blue light at the lowest end to the visible light spectrum, 400 to 440 nm, where the energy levels and the danger level are higher. No other product offers this much protection in that wavelength.

The filtration continues all the way to 480 nm, where sleep deprivation occurs, no other lens product or anti-reflective blue light coating addresses this specific portion of the damaging blue light.

So, BluTech is a lens monomer infused with OLP, providing the perfect natural level of protection to your patients, all without interfering with or impacting color perception, and as a complete solution BluTech is available to protect your patients, both indoors and outdoors, with a polarized sunglass lens.

We have addressed the single most common complaint for polarized lenses, your patients in BluTech will be able to read the characters and images on digital screens, smartphones, tablets and digital dashboard without distortion. That alone is a tremendous benefits for a sun lens wearer and built in blue light protection outdoors.
