AIM Proancynol 2000™
AIM Proancynol 2000™ combines the proven antioxidants found in green tea and grape seed extracts with powerful antioxidant "newcomers" N-acetylcystiene and alpha-lipoic acid, as well as rosemary extract, selenium, and lycopene.
The Power of Synergy
What makes AIMProancynol 2000™ powerful is the synergy
between its various components. They are not only powerful individually, but also work
together in what is known as antioxidant cycling. Antioxidant cycling is the term that
describes how antioxidants work together to extend each others’ lives and make each
other more powerful.
When the antioxidant vitamin E disables free radicals, it becomes a
minor free radical. Both vitamin C and alpha-lipoic acid convert the radical form of
vitamin E back to its antioxidant-self. However, when vitamin C recycles vitamin E, it
changes to a free radical. Alpha-lipoic acid and glutathione can both "recycle"
vitamin C back into a potent antioxidant.
Glutathione not only recycles vitamin C, but is the cells’ primary
antioxidant. According to Lester Packer, Ph.D., maintaining high levels of glutathione is
critical for life—low glutathione levels are a marker for death at an early age.
Glutathione diminishes as we age and cannot be boosted significantly through supplements.
N-acetylcysteine is used by the body to manufacture glutathione, and
alpha-lipoic acid regenerates glutathione, ensuring that the body has an adequate supply.
Selenium is part of the enzyme glutathione peroxidase, which recycles glutathione.
OPCs also play a role in cycling as they sacrifice themselves in order
to neutralize harmful free radicals within the body. In doing so, they make it possible
for vitamins C and E and selenium to do less "antioxidant" work, allowing these
nutrients to perform their other functions in the body.
You can see how the ingredients found in AIM
Proancynol 2000™ work together to provide optimum free
radical protection.

Q & A
Who should use AIM
Proancynol 2000™?
Anyone who is concerned with overall health
and a healthy immune system. AIM Proancynol 2000™ is especially suited to those who have a lifestyle that may
generate more free radicals than normal. This would include living in polluted
environments, smoking, or participating in extensive exercise (exercise creates free
radicals).
Is there
anyone who should not take AIM Proancynol 2000™?
There are no known safety considerations concerning the ingredients in AIM
Proancynol 2000™. However, due to the
alpha-lipoic acid present, diabetics should monitor their blood sugar levels. Pregnant
women and people who are using other medications or who have serious health problems
should always consult their health practitioners when adding new substances to their diet.
Does the green tea extract contain caffeine?
The green tea used in AIM
Proancynol 2000™ is decaffeinated using a water filtration-decaffeination process.
Like all decaffeinated products, some amounts of caffeine remain.
What can you tell me about the ingredients
found in AIM Proancynol 2000™?
The extracts (green tea, grape seed, and rosemary) are obtained by using an alcohol and
water extraction process. Although the original plants are not organically grown, any
impurities that were present in the raw materials are not present in the finished product.
The grape seeds are derived from both red and white grapes. The rosemary is standardized
to 6 percent carnosic acid. The alpha-lipoic acid is derived from potatoes.
About free radicals
Think of a
fire. It is continuously burning, creating energy. In this process, sparks are thrown off.
If the sparks are minimal, or land in a safe place, there is no damage. However, if the
sparks multiply, or land on something flammable, a greater fire and destruction may
result. However, if we put a grill around the fireplace, the sparks hit this and fall to
the ground extinguished. They can do no harm, no matter how many are produced.
This is what happens to us. Our bodies
continuously produce free radicals, which are our sparks. These sparks are multiplied
because of the foods we eat and the environment in which we live. When too many free
radicals are created, they can result in damage—many of today’s most frequent
diseases, such as heart disease, stroke, cancer, cataracts, and immune disorders are due
to free radicals.
Antioxidants serve as our grill, extinguishing free radicals before
they can damage us.
