Treasure chest of nutrients

Why are people experiencing many health benefits from consuming Zija?  Check out the incredible source of nutrition that Zija delivers.  Zija is made from Moringa Oleifera and was formulated to keep all 92 nutrients enzymatically alive and 100% bio-available

Antioxidant support

Read the article below to see why we need high amounts of antioxidants each day to fight off the free radicals that we take into our bodies each day that cause disease and many other health issues people struggle with each day. Did you know that Moringa Oleifera a great source if not the best source for antioxidants in any botanical?  Moringa Oleifera is what Zija is made from and contains over 40 antioxidants along with many other vital nutrients we need each day (over 90 total) to stay healthy and looking young. 

Turn on the television, open a magazine or listen to the radio and in short order you will no doubt be exposed to an advertisement extolling the virtues of some newly discovered exotic fruit juice that has the highest antioxidant content on the face of the earth. You may wonder — why all the hype? What is the benefit of an antioxidant?

Antioxidants are chemicals that break down or neutralize the damaging effects of free radicals — chemicals produced as a byproduct of normal cellular metabolism. Under normal circumstances, there is a balance between the rate at which free radicals are produced and the rate at which they are eliminated by the action of antioxidants. Free radicals are destructive in that they cause oxidative damage to tissues — essentially causing tissues to rust like a piece of iron left outside in the weather. They damage proteins, fat and even our DNA. In fact, damage to our tissues by free radicals is thought to underlie the process of aging, a theory first described by Dr. Denham Harmon in his “free radical theory of aging” proposed in 1956. Indeed, Dr. Harmon laid the groundwork for the whole antioxidant industry when he demonstrated that free radicals are “quenched” by antioxidants.

The human brain is at particularly high risk for damage by free radicals because of its high degree of metabolism compared to other tissues, while lacking the levels of antioxidant protection found elsewhere in the body. Excessive free radical damage is now thought to represent a pivotal player not only in brain aging, but in degenerative conditions like Alzheimer’s disease as well.

Why Zija?

Why are people experiencing such incredible health benefits from drinking Zija?  The main reason is Zija is made from the most nutrient rich botannical ever discovered, Moringa Oleifera.  Moringa Oleifera is loaded with over 90 vital nutrients that we need each day for our bodies to function properly and help in preventing disease and other health issues.    You can see in the image below the incredible treasure chest of nutrients that Zija delivers.  All 90 plus nutrients are 100% bioavailable and enzymatically alive, which means your body can absorb all the nutrients and put them to work for maximum benefit.   Here are just a few of the many health benefits that people have reported:  lowered blood pressure, lowered cholesterol, reduced joint pain/arthritis issues, reduced or eliminated allergy symptoms,  better sleep, mental clarity, ADD/ADHD, digestive and stomach issues, migraine headaches, recovery after workouts,  more energy and the list goes on and on.  Zija also plays a major part in our XM3 Weight Management System which is producing incredible success for people wanting to lose weight and keep it under control.   Zija is helping many people regain the control of the health.  Are you in control of your health? 

Important role of Amino Acids

Do you know if your getting the correct amount of amino acids through your regular diet?  Amino acids play a vital role in how our bodies function everyday which include building muscle tissue, preventing disease among many other benefits.  Zija contains 19 of the 20 amino acids, including all of the essential amino acids that our bodies do not produce and that we need to get through our food chain.  The amino acids from Zija are coming from a real source (Moringa Oleifera) which is very important because our bodies can recognize those nutrients and absorb them into our bodies.  Got Zija?  Read the article below on the importance of amino acids.

(NaturalNews) Many foods contains a variety of essential and non-essential amino acids that play a critical role in metabolizing nutrients, building muscle tissue, and protecting the body against disease. And new research has revealed even more about how vital functional amino acids are in improving growth and development, boosting reproductive function, and maintaining optimal health.

Dr. Guoyao Wu, an animal nutritionist and senior faculty fellow at Texas A&M University’s department of animal science, recently published a study in the journal American Society for Nutrition about how scientists need to take a more proactive approach in studying functional amino acids. Wu explains in his study how amino acids regulate key metabolic pathways in such important ways that supplementation with them could greatly improve overall health conditions both in animals and humans.

Since most research into amino acids has been focused primarily on the essential ones — meaning the type not produced naturally by the body and that have to be supplemented through diet — Wu says more attention needs to be given to the non-essential ones.

The name non-essential does not mean that these amino acids are not necessary for human health, but rather that they are naturally produced in the body. But if biochemical conditions in the body leave these non-essential amino acids lacking, then a person can develop serious illnesses apart from additional supplementation.

According to previous research conducted by Wu, arginine, a type of amino acid, improves the growth and development of animal embryos. It also helps to fight obesity, which means it could play a valuable role in helping to naturally fight the U.S. obesity epidemic. Amino acids also help to lengthen lifespan, prevent cardiovascular disease, and improve antioxidant function.

The Power of Omegas Fatty Acids

Are you getting your Omegas 3, 6 & 9 fatty acids?  The Omega fatty acids have many health benefits, especially with inflammatory issues that many people struggle with each day.  Do you know someone with inflammatory issues that would could benefit from an incredible source of all natural omegas 3, 6 & 9?  Moringa oleifera contains significant amounts of the omegas 3, 6 & 9.  Got Zija??  Read the article below from naturalnews.com to learn about the importance of the Omega fatty acids.

(NaturalNews.com) What do the top authors, doctors and health experts have to say about the realtionship between omega-3 fatty acids and inflammation? I asked my Private Research Library that question recently and was overwhelmed with the remarkable wisdom it revealed.

Below, I share the top quotes from noted authors about omega-3 fatty acids and their relationship to inflammation (and the diseases of inflammation). It’s an astonishing tour through the highlights of how omega-3s affect the body’s response to inflammation, and you’ll learn important information about the role of inflammation in diseases like Alzheimer’s, cancer, heart disease, diabetes, eczema, asthma and many others. You’ll also see why inflammation can easily aggravate autoimmune disorders like Lupus and type-1 diabetes, and you’ll find out which low-cost trace mineral boosts the assimilation of omega-3 fatty acids.

With all the interest in marine omega-3s today, you’ll find this article fascinating. Keep in mind that most of the text here was written before green-lipped mussels or krill oil became known as available sources of omega-3 fatty acids, so most authors quoted below recommend cold water fish. Fish are a great source of omega-3s, but the mercury content they may contain makes them potentially more dangerous to your health than the benefits their omega-3 oils provide. So check your sources carefully and only buy from trusted companies that can demonstrate low mercury levels through laboratory analysis.

Are you getting your daily intake of amino acids?

Zija contains all 9 essential amino acids and 20 in all.  If you want to make sure you are receiving your daily requirement of amino acids then drink Zija.    

(naturalnews.com) Now comes word from Italian scientists that they’ve discovered a mix of amino acids is a life extender in animals — and may well be a longevity aid for humans, too. But perhaps the most interesting aspect of this study, which was just published in the October issue of the journal Cell Metabolism, is a statement made by lead researcher Enzo Nisoli of Milan University in Italy which suggests nutritional therapies are being taken very seriously in the world of scientific research. The new study showing the life extending power of amino acids, Nisoli stated, supports a “general philosophy of a nutritional approach to disease, aging, and problems of energy status”

Abstract

Moringa oleifera Lam (Moringaceae) is a highly valued plant, distributed in many countries of the tropics and subtropics. It has an impressive range of medicinal uses with high nutritional value. Different parts of this plant contain a profile of important minerals, and are a good source of protein, vitamins, beta-carotene, amino acids and various phenolics. The Moringa plant provides a rich and rare combination of zeatin, quercetin, beta-sitosterol, caffeoylquinic acid and kaempferol. In addition to its compelling water purifying powers and high nutritional value, M. oleifera is very important for its medicinal value. Various parts of this plant such as the leaves, roots, seed, bark, fruit, flowers and immature pods act as cardiac and circulatory stimulants, possess antitumor, antipyretic, antiepileptic, antiinflammatory, antiulcer, antispasmodic, diuretic, antihypertensive, cholesterol lowering, antioxidant, antidiabetic, hepatoprotective, antibacterial and antifungal activities, and are being employed for the treatment of different ailments in the indigenous system of medicine, particularly in South Asia. This review focuses on the detailed phytochemical composition, medicinal uses, along with pharmacological properties of different parts of this multipurpose tree.
