Product Specifications
Resveratrol:
is a naturally occurring phytoalexin produced by some higher plants in response to injury or fungal infection. Phytoalexins are chemical substances produced by plants as a defense against disease. It occurs in the vines, roots, seeds, and stalks, but its highest concentration is in grape skins and red wines. Resveratrol interferes with all three stages of cancer formation: initiation, promotion and progression. It is believed that Resveratrol is the reason that proves the French paradox, stating that despite the French having diets high in saturated fats, they suffer relatively low incidence of coronary heart disease. It is extracted from the shrub, Polygonum Cuspidatum.

Colostrum:
is a form of milk produced by the mammary glands in late pregnancy and the few days after giving birth. Human and bovine colostrums is thick, sticky, and yellowish. In humans, it has high concentrations of nutrients and antibodies, but is small is quantity. Colostrum is high in carbohydrates, high in protein, high in antibodies, and low in fat (as human newborns may find fat difficult to digest). Newborns have very small digestive systems; colostrum delivers its nutrients in a very concentrated low-volume form. It has a mild laxative effect, encouraging the passing of the baby's first stool.

Peptide Bound Glutamine:
is one of the 20 essential amino acids encoded by the standard genetic code, though it's considered conditionally essential meaning not normally required in the diet. Its side chain is an amide; it is formed by replacing a side-chain hydroxyl of glutamic acid with an amine functional group. Like other amino acids, glutamine is biochemically important as a constituent of proteins and is crucial in nitrogen metabolism. Peptides are the family of short molecules formed from the linking, in a defined order, of various amino acids. The link between one amino acid residue and the next is a peptide bond.
