What is Antioxidation?

As ironic as it sounds, oxygen is an essential element that is needed for sustaining all life, but just like anything else, too much of it can be a bad thing. Oxygen is one of the most damaging and deteriorating elements that cause free radicals to develop in the human body. Free radicals cause a chemical reaction with tissues and cells that eventually become the damaged tissues, cells, or molecules resulting from oxidation. Similarly, the building of rust is the deteriorating result of a chemical reaction in which iron bonds with oxygen through oxidation. Our bodies, with age, deteriorate and corrode just like any metal that is exposed too long to the elements. The deterioration is due in part to the oxidation of substances or tissues in our bodies. Antioxidants help by taking the extra oxygen from our bodies, combining them with another element to be safely absorbed or taken out of our bodies entirely, and preventing more free radical “problematic” cells from developing.

A History of Success and Development

In 1999, Naturally Plus launched in Japan with one mission and with one product. To share with the world how to live a better overall quality of life through better health and the option and possibility of better financial stability. We began with Super Lutein, our flagship product that has helped millions of people. We have improved upon that formula to bring you MIRTO+. An upgraded nutritional supplement that packs more of an antioxidant punch. SUPER LUTEIN MIRTOPLUS is the synergistic combination of a water-soluble antioxidant MIRTOGENOL® and the fat-soluble antioxidant lutein which hails as a breakthrough in Naturally Plus’ product development.

FORMULA

Our world is starving from a lack of nutrients. In just over three generations, globalization of our food supply and corporate price wars have created conditions that deplete the nutritional value of our diet. Lack of nutrients however, can be addressed through supplementation which helps promote overall health by supplying the necessary nutrients we need to thrive as we age.

Carotenoids are essential phytonutrients. Lutein, lycopene, zeaxanthin, α and β carotenes, and β cryptoxanthin are the six that have been carefully selected for a one-of-a-kind formula. Few other products, if any, offer all six plus DHA/EPA and Mirtogenol (extracted from maritime pine bark). Other active nutrients (including bilberry and black currant extracts, palm oil, unshiu mikan also known as satsuma mandarin oranges, Vitamin E, and Vitamins B1, B2, B6, and B12) help support your diet by supplementing the body’s building blocks providing antioxidant support in order to reduce the effects of free radicals at the cellular level. In our bodies, carotenoids provide antioxidant support.

Because our typical diet is generally lacking in providing the necessary carotenoids to promote overall health and help fight free radicals, we believe it is important to provide us with the necessary to supplement our diets with these nutrients with dietary supplements such as MIRTO+.

SCIENCE

We asked ourselves if it was possible to find an ingredient that enhances the strengths of SUPER LUTEIN and at the same time, add a new power and benefit to it. What we came up with was SUPER LUTEIN MIRTO+.

SUPER LUTEIN MIRTO+ is the synergistic combination of the water-soluble antioxidant MIRTOGENOL® and the fat-soluble antioxidant lutein. MIRTOGENOL® is a combination of PYCNOGENOL® and MIRTOSELECT®. This hails to be a breakthrough in Naturally Plus’ product development.

SUPER LUTEIN MIRTO+ contains a well-balanced combination of carotenoids found in brightly colored vegetables plus the power of MIRTOGENOL®. Over the years, it has been well-loved by customers, and has grown into a brand representative of the Naturally Plus quality standard.

To support your quest for a healthy lifestyle, Naturally Plus tirelessly endeavours to discover, develop and incorporate beneficial ingredients into our products.

MIRTOGENOL

What is MIRTOGENOL®?
MIRTOGENOL® is a new ingredient with an international patent*, made from combining French maritime pine bark extract PYCNOGENOL® and standardized bilberry extract MIRTOSELECT®. Their respective pioneers, Horphag Research of Switzerland and Indena of Italy, jointly developed MIRTOGENOL® after dedicated research in the interaction of these two ingredients. Naturally Plus firmly believes in the potential of this ingredient, hence SUPER LUTEIN MIRTO+ was successfully developed.

What is PYCNOGENOL®?
PYCNOGENOL® is a natural botanical ingredient extracted from the bark of French maritime pine trees that are 30-50 years old. PYCNOGENOL® has 170 times the antioxidant power of vitamin E, 340 times that of vitamin C, and over 40 types of flavonoids including procyanidin, catechin, and taxifolin.

What is MIRTOSELECT®?
MIRTOSELECT® is a proprietary bilberry extract produced by Indena of Italy from freshly ripened bilberry fruits harvested between July and September. Bilberry is a wild species of blueberry, carefully selected from over 150 blueberry species. It is a fruit-bearing shrub with strong vitality. Fresh bilberries contain about 4 times the anthocyanin (a type of polyphenol) of blueberry.
