Good Fats & Bad Fats

Good [fish, nuts, seeds, coconut]- Promotes overall cardiovascular health- Helps maintain normal blood flow- Helps maintain normal blood pressure levels

Bad [hydrogenated or trans fats]Constricts arteriesMakes blood stickyDiminishes arterial health

3 Types of Dietary Fats

Saturated fats (animal products)

Monounsaturated fats are typically the best oils for cooking (olive oil has a higher oxidation threshold – resists hydrogen-ation or saturation)

Polyunsaturated fats (nuts, seeds, sunflower, safflower and corn oils)

**includes essential omega-3 fatty acids**

Omega 3 Fatty Acids

Two main types:

- Long Chain FA including EPA & DHA (Eicosapentanoic Acid & Docosahexanoic Acid) Plentiful in cold water fish and shellfish

- Short Chain FA including ALA (Alpha-Linolenic Acid) Found in plants such as flaxseed

Fatty Acids

Fatty Acids SaturatedUnsaturated

○ MonounsaturatedOlive Oil

○ PolyunsaturatedOmega-3s and Omega 6s (EFA’s)

Trans-fatty acids○ Hydrogenation

DHA

EPA

Importance of omega-3s Americans are NOT consuming as much

fish as in the past and we eat corn fed beef

Ratio of Omega 6 to Omega 3 should be 2:1 (per Am J Clin Nutr, 1999). Average American ratio is 20:1 (per Am J Clin Nutr, 2000)

Need to ↓Omega 6’s (corn, sunflower oil)

Good to ↑Omega 3’s (fish, shrimp)

AHA Scientific Statement: Fish Consumption, Fish Oil, Omega-3 FA’s & CVD Kris-Etherton et al, Circulation (2002)106:2747-2757

Strongly encourages increased Ω-3 consumption

Singles out EPA & DHA from fish as best for heart health

Sets out recommended daily intakes of ~1 g of EPA + DHA for people at risk of CVD and 2-4 g for lowering triglycerides

Recognizes fish oil supplements as a safe, effective alter-native to eating fish for people who don’t like it or who can’t consume enough to reach effective intakes of EPA + DHA

Stresses the importance of safe, high-quality supplements

Sources of EPA + DHA[Target amounts: 1 or 3 g per day]

Salmon 1.1g per 3 oz serving$6.99/lb at a local grocery store (8 oz = 3 g DHA + EPA)

Canned tuna provides 0.36 g per 3 oz serving$1.00 per 6 oz can this week (25 oz = 3 g DHA + EPA = 4+ cans

Primary Benefits of Hearth Health™ Essential Omega III Fish Oil Helps maintain: normal cholesterol levels,

normal blood pressure levels, normal blood flow, normal triglyceride levels, healthy levels of c-reactive protein

Promotes: overall cardiovascular health, a healthy complexion, healthy eye lubrication, normal tear production, healthy blood flow to the eye

Helps enhance mood and may help to retain low-light visual acuity

What Makes an Omega Supplement High Quality? High purity – small cold water

fish from deep depths and molecularlly distilled to remove impurities

Want the oil to be 50%+ EPA and DHA

Want the ratio of EPA:DHA to be 3:2

Contain Vit E (d-α-Tocopherol) to ensure freshness

Quality of Hearth Health™  Essential Omega III Fish Oil Made from sardines and anchovies harvested

off the coast of Peru Each batch is hand selected and must pass

more than 200 quality checks during production

Oil is tested twice (manufacturer and independent lab) for PCB’s, mercury, lead and other heavy metals.

消化酶 (Digestive Enzymes)什么是酶 (Enzymes)?

酶是催化体内生化反应的蛋白质 , 是我们身体里的动力。

酶具有高度的特异性 , 只在一定的 pH 值和温度范围内有活性。

酶的种类- 新陳代謝酶 : 在细胞内工作- 消化酶 : 在消化系统的细胞外工作 , 把食物中的大分

子分解成小分子。

Digestive Enzymes消化酶的來源 : - 生鮮食物 :

食物经过冷冻、高温、福射、微波等处理，其中的酶的活性和结构就完全被破坏掉。我们吃进去的绝大多数食物是不含酶的。

- 体內产生 : 唾液腺、胃、小肠、胰脏。Digestive enzymes are classified based on their target substrates:proteases and peptidases split proteins into small peptides and amino acids.lipases split fat into three fatty acids and a glycerol molecule.amylases split carbohydrates such as starch and sugars into simple sugars such as glucose.

Studies Show Curcumin Promotes Normal Activity of NF-KB Activation

S. Shishodia et al. Curcumin down-regulates cigarette smoke-induced NF-kB activation through inhibition of IkBα kinase in human lung epithelial cells: correlation with suppression of COX-2, MMP-9 and cyclin D1. Carginogenisis (2003) 24(7): 1269-1279

B.B. Agarwal et al. Curcumin suppresses the paclitaxel-induced nuclear factor-kB pathway in breast cancer cells and inhibits lung metastasis of human breast cancer in nude mice. Clin Cancer Res 2005;11(20) 7490-7498

Nuclear factor-kappa B A protein complex involved in

supporting normal cellular responses to stress (such as free radical attack).

NF-κB plays a key role in regulating the immune and inflammatory responses.

Inadequate regulation of NF-κB has been linked to problems in joint health, digestive health and respiratory health.

Importance of Apoptosis

Curcumin has been found to promote normal cell cycle activity and promote apoptosis in unhealthy cells.

Glucosinolates

Found in cruciferous vegetables.

An enzyme converts it to isothiocyanates and indoles.

Indole-3 carbinol promotes normal phase I and II detoxification reactions.

What is “detoxification?” Carried out by enzymes produced from

the information stored within our genes.

Phase I: Enzymes are called “activators.”

Phase II: Enzymes called “excretors.”

Indole-3 carbinol promotes the normal activity of these enzymes.M.L. Clapper et al. Preclinical and Clinical Evaluation of Broccoli Supplements as Inducers of Glutathione S-Transferase Activity. Clin Cancer Res 1997; Vol 3, 25-30

Conclusion

There is no finer health support product than Curcumin Extreme™. It plays a powerful role in supporting immune function, liver function, and normal cell regeneration. The all-in-one supplement.
