Q. What are antioxidants?
Antioxidants
have disease-fighting
properties that protect
cells from damage by
substances called free
radicals. Antioxidants
work by neutralizing
free radicals that are
formed when body cells
burn oxygen for energy. Antioxidants
also help keep the
immune system healthy
and reduce the risk for
cancer and other
diseases.

Q. What is
lycopene?
What are its benefits?
Lycopene is a
bright red carotenoid
pigment and
phytochemical found in
tomatoes and other red
fruits. It is a proven
antioxidant that has
received a lot of
attention from
researchers in recent
years. It is considered
to be a biologically
important carotenoid for
humans.
As a powerful and
proven antioxidant, lycopene
helps neutralize free
radicals which are
implicated in cancer,
heart disease, macular
degeneration and other
age-related illness:
- Provides
better heart
protection.
- In a recent
Harvard study of
more than 28,000
women, those with
the highest blood lycopene
levels were half as
likely to develop
heart
disease over
five years as women
with the lowest
levels.
- Prevents
free radicals from
disrupting the
balance of new bone
formation with the
bone loss that
naturally occurs
with age. When that
balance is thrown
off, bone loss
exceeds bone
formation, causing
the brittle bone
disease osteoporosis.
- Oral
lycopene is
also considered to
have a protective
effect against UV
skin damage, which
suggested a
potential inverse
connection between lycopene
and skin cancer.
While sunscreens
provide external
protection from
damaging UV rays, lycopene
in the diet might
provide internal
protection from
sunburn.
- The
evidence for a
benefit was
strongest for cancers
of the prostrate,
lung, and stomach.
Data were also
suggestive of a
benefit for cancers
of the pancreas,
colon and rectum,
esophagus, oral
cavity, breast, and
cervix.
- Lycopene
is also suggested to
improve infertility
in men, by increasing
sperm concentration
and movement and
improving pregnancy
rates among the
participants.
- Keeps
the immune system
healthy.

Q.
What is grape
seed extract? What
are its benefits?
Grape seed extract
(GSE) is just
what it sounds like
– an extract from
grape seeds. The seeds
are typically from red
grapes (instead of
white), which have a
high content of
compounds known as
oligomeric
proanthocyanidins (OPCs).
These antioxidants
help protect cells
from free radical
damage and also
promote healthy
circulation. GSE
is also rich in
polyphenols, a
compound that's high
in antioxidants.
Studies have shown OPC
to be more powerful antioxidants
than vitamin C, E, and
beta-carotene.
Grape
seed extract is
one of the most
powerful antioxidants
that fight free
radicals in the body:
-
Reduces
cancer risk.
-
Helps
improve cardiovascular
health (reducing risk
of atherosclerosis).
-
Improves
vascular strength
(stronger blood
vessels).
-
It
also helps promote
brain, skin and eye
health (reduces risk
of macular
degeneration and
cataracts).
-
One
of the few antioxidants
that can penetrate the
blood brain barrier to
help protect the brain
and nerve tissue.
-
Reduces
edema
(inflammation/swelling).
-
Some
studies have also
shown GSE to
prevent the formation
of plaque in the
arteries.
-
Can
also improve mental
alertness and help
prevent senility.

Q.
How is ATLAKO
Plus, introduced in
India by ATLAS, better
than other multi
vitamins and antioxidants?
ATLAKO Plus
contains lycopene,
grape seed extract
and other essential
vitamins and minerals.
Lycopene is a
proven and powerful
antioxidant that
protects the body from
various chronic
diseases. Before grape
seed extract was
discovered, the best
sources of antioxidants
came from vitamin C, E
and beta-carotene;
however, these sources
were not powerful enough
to fight the free
radicals and are also
excreted by the body
within a short time of
ingestion. Grape seed
extract, on the
other hand, has been
shown to remain in the
body for as long as 3
full days, and is 20
times more potent than
vitamin C, and 50 times
stronger than vitamin E.
ATLAKO Plus has
been receiving
tremendous results for
its revolutionary
