It has been shown to slow the aging process and contains and reportedly contains 30 times the anthocyanines that red wine does (anthocyanines curb mental fatigue and help fight illness and kill cancer cells). The acai berry is found in every 8.4 oz can of Pure Revolution.

Apple Juice
The proverb "An apple a day keeps the doctor away," addressing the health effects of the fruit, dates from 19th century Wales. Research suggests that apples may reduce the risk of colon cancer, prostate cancer and lung cancer. Compared to many other fruits and vegetables, apples contain relatively low amounts of Vitamin C, but are a rich source of other antioxidant compounds. The fiber content, while less than in most other fruits, helps regulate bowel movements and may thus reduce the risk of colon cancer. They may also help with heart disease, weight loss, and controlling cholesterol, as they do not have any cholesterol, have fiber, which reduces cholesterol by preventing reabsorption, and are bulky for their caloric content like most fruits and vegetables.

Seabuckthorn Juice
Nutrient and phytochemical constituents of sea-buckthorn berries have potential value as antioxidants that may affect inflammatory disorders, cancer or other diseases, although no specific health benefits have yet been proved by clinical research in humans.

The fruit of the plant has a high vitamin C content—in a range of 114 to 1550 mg per 100 grams, with an average content (695 mg per 100 grams) about 12 times greater than oranges— placing sea-buckthorn fruit among the most enriched plant sources of vitamin C. The fruit also contains dense contents of carotenoids, vitamin E, amino acids, dietary minerals, sitosterol and polyphenolic acids

Grape Juice
Grapes grow in clusters of 6 to 300, and can be crimson, black, dark blue, yellow, green and pink. Research studies indicate that grapes provide excellent health benefits which inlcude:

• Alteration of molecular mechanisms in blood vessels, reducing susceptibility to vascular damage,
• Decreased activity of angiotensin, a systemic hormone causing blood vessel constriction that would elevate blood pressure
• Increased production of the vasodilator hormone, nitric oxide (endothelium-derived relaxing factor)
  

Fucoidan
Hundreds of published studies attest to fucoidan’s remarkable ability to promote cardiovascular health, fight inflammation and inhibit viral attachment. Now, new research demonstrates that fucoidan actually mobilizes and potentiates stem cells, and enhances their ability to renew and repair aging and damaged tissues.

Fucoidan is found in every 8.4 oz can of Revolution.

Ginkgo Biloba Extract
Extracts of Ginkgo leaves contain flavonoid glycosides and terpenoids and have been used pharmaceutically. Ginkgo has many alleged nootropic properties, and is mainly used as memory and concentration enhancer, and anti-vertigo agent.

Ginkgo extract may have three effects on the human body: improvement in blood flow (including microcirculation in small capillaries) to most tissues and organs; protection against oxidative cell damage from free radicals; and blockage of many of the effects of platelet-activating factor (platelet aggregation, blood clotting) that have been related to the development of a number of cardiovascular, renal, respiratory and central nervous system disorders.

Panax Ginseng
Ginseng is one of the world's best known herbal remedies, and has been used in Asia for more than 5,000 years as tonic and rejuvenator. Panax ginseng is one variety of ginseng that is most prized by the Chinese, the name "panax" comes from the Greek word "panacea", meaning "cure all". The medicinal properties of panax ginseng are found in both the leaf and its light tan root. Ginseng is being studied for a number of purposes, from treating stress to increasing levels of alertness and mental clarity.

• Panax ginseng herb is considered "adaptogen" because of its unique ability to normalize whatever is out of balance in the body.
• Panax ginseng works to stimulate and improve the working of the brain with it's oxygenation properties. It is therefore beneficial in promoting physical and mental alertness.
• Panax ginseng not only inhibits the production of cancer cells but actually converts the abnormal cells into normal ones.
• Panax ginseng decreases harmful LDL cholesterol and increases beneficial cholesterol HDL levels
• Panax ginseng stimulates weight and tissue growth and thereby enhances the body's resistance to disease.
  

Choline Bitartrate
Growing evidence now suggests that dietary choline is very important for the prevention of many pathologic conditions, and has been used as a dietary supplement for the purpose of treating or preventing several human diseases including arteriosclerosis and certain deficiencies of brain function and memory.

Choline Bitartrate is found in every 8.4 oz can of Revolution.

Elderberry Concentrate
Elderberry is used for its antioxidant activity, to lower cholesterol, to improve vision, to boost the immune system, to improve heart health and for coughs, colds, flu, bacterial and viral infections and tonsilitis. Bioflavonoids and other proteins in the juice destroy the ability of cold and flu viruses to infect a cell.

Elderberry anthocyanins enhance immune function by boosting the production of cytokines, proteins acting as messengers in the immune system to help regulate immune response

Purple Carrot Juice
Purple carrots contain anthrocyanins, pigments that are extremely effective antioxidants, and it is these anti-oxidants that latch on to the very harmful free radicals that do so much damage in our bodies if unchecked. Anthrocyanins also slow dangerous blood clotting within the body, thus safe guarding the heart further.

In addition, purple carrot's may actually help prevent heart disease and cancer, and also be a natural way to reduce blood cholesterol.

Purple Sweet Potato Juice
Pruple sweet potato's are a low-calories and fat free vegetable with an abundance of healthy minerals such as beta-carotene, Vitamin A, C and E, magnesium, potassium and rich in antioxidants. These nutrients and minerals help to protect against heart attack and stroke, reducing blood pressure and maintaining fluid and electrolyte balance in the body cells.

Taking into consideration of fibre content, complex carbohydrates, protein, vitamins A and C, iron, and calcium plus the other aforementioned minerals, the sweet potato is ranked highest in nutritional value amongst other vegetables.

Black Carrot Juice
Black Carrots contain anthocyanins, part of the flavonoid family with antioxidant properties. Flavonoids are currently under investigation as anticancer compounds, as free radical scavengers in living systems, as well as inhibitors of LDL (the bad) cholesterol and the black carrot anthocyanins are especially active.

It has anti-bacterial and anti-fungicidal properties and oil made from its seed can help control scalp itchiness and provides essential nutrients for hair growth. The ancient black carrot has been making a comeback, not so much for culinary purposes but as a source of natural food colorants. These originate from Turkey, and the Middle and Far East.

Red Cabbage Juice
Red cabbage has more phytonutrients than green cabbage. The vitamin C content of red cabbage is 6-8 times higher than that of the green cabbage. In addition red cabbage provides:

• Phytonutrients that works to protect the body from free radicals that can damage the cell membranes. Phytonutrients also signal our genes to increase its production of enzymes involved in detoxification.
• Cabbage may lower the incidence of cancer, especially in the lung, stomach and colon prostate.
• Cabbage is a muscle builder, blood cleanser and eye strengthener.
• Red cabbage contain anthocyanin (red pigment/color) is an antioxidant that can help protect brain cells, thus can help prevent Alzheimer's disease.
  

Grapeseed Extract
Grapeseed is known as polyphenols “nature’s biological response modifiers” because of their ability to help the body fight viruses, allergens, and carcinogens. That means that among their many talents, they exhibit anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, anti-cancerous and anti-microbial activity.

Procyanidins can improve your vision, the flexibility of your joints, the health of your arteries and body tissues (such as the heart) and also strengthen capilliaries and veins to improve your circulatory system. In addition grapeseed is being researched for its anti-aging effects resulting in younger looking skin.

Pomegranate
Pomegranate has quickly become one of the most talked about health foods in the past year. Preliminary evidence suggests that drinking concentrated pomegranate juice may reduce cholesterol. Israeli researchers, published a small clinical study in June 2004 in Clinical Nutrition, suggested that drinking a glass of pomegranate juice a day for one year reduced blood pressure (particularly systolic pressure) and slowed down LDL cholesterol (the bad cholesterol). Pomegranate fruits contain polyphenols, tannins and anthocyanins - all are beneficial. Interestingly, pomegranate juice contains high levels of antioxidants - higher than most other fruit juices, red wine or green tea. Pomegranate is found in every 8.4 oz can of Revolution.

Bilberry Extract
The bilberry, a relative of the blueberry, is a dark skinned fruit that slow down the decline in vision that comes with age, and also improve night vision. There is also evidence that Bilberry can be effective in reducing vascular insufficiency, and related conditions. The bilberry also provides positive effects by increasing circulation to the the eyes and other organs.

Prickly Pear Cactus
Prickly pear cactus is a rich source of flavanoids, including kaempferol, quercetin, kaempferol 3-methyl ether, quercetin 3-methyl ether, narcissin, dihydrokaempferol (aromadendrin, 6), dihydroquercetin, and eriodictyol. These flavanoids are responsible for its health enhancing benefits.

Studies show that prickly pear cactus can protect the immune system and prevent oxidative stress by acting as a scavenger of free radicles. Its' antioxidant action will help protect cells and organs.
