Ambrosia Nektar | Complete Human Health Supplement We worry about what we can see. Big biceps. chiseled chest, strong shoulders. But what about what you can’t see? The parts of your body that when not functioning optimally will hinder your results and performance. Liver, kidneys, blood pressure, blood sugar among other bodily functions are all rarely addressed by supplements. Ambrosia Nektar™ contains scientifically validated ingredients in their studied dosages to address the parts of your body that truly matter.Your key internal organs: the liver, lungs, heart, and kidney; are often overlooked in favor of pursuing lower body fat, or more muscle. Now you no longer have to make that sacrifice with the introduction of Nektar. This formula uses a combination of 12 ingredients all in one product, with a taste that is truly worthy of the name "Ambrosia" the common name for "the food of the Gods" in ancient times. Chromium (as Chromium Picolinate) (Chromax®) Chromium is an essential mineral, consumed through the diet. It is found in trace amounts in plant products, specifically grains. Chromium Picolinate is one of the most widely used supplements on the market, primarily utilized for its blood sugar regulation benefits. Research has generally shown that Chromamax® improves insulin sensitivity by either prolonging its activity or up-regulating the production of mRNA to produce more insulin receptors Small quantities of chromium are needed for glucose utilization by insulin for normal health. Studies have suggested that chromium picolinate may assist in weight loss and increase muscle mass. (Amount Per Serving - 200mcg) Red Yeast Rice Extract (0.1% Monacolin K) (Monascus purpureus) (Seed) Red Yeast Rice is a bright reddish purple fermented rice, which acquires its color from being cultivated with the mold Monascus purpureus. It has been used in food and medicinal preparations for hundreds of years. Red yeast rice has been found to be very effective in reducing LDL cholesterol and Triglycerides and thus vastly improving the health and function of the heart. The active component within Red Yeast Rice responsible for its effects is known as "monacolin K". Many Red Yeast Rice supplements have no declaration of their Monacolin K content and thus are unreliable in their effects. Ambrosia uses a specific and tested Red Yeast Rice that has been standardized for Monacolin K. (Amount Per Serving - 600mg) Hawthorn Berry Extract 4:1 (Crataegus Oxyacantha) (Fruit) Hawthorn Berry is an all-natural heart health ingredient.

This natural ingredient has been for centuries as an herbal cardiovascular tonic, due to its antioxidant flavonoids with unique benefits for the heart and vascular system. (Amount Per Serving - 500mg) Milk Thistle Extract (80% Silymarin) (Silybum marianum) (Seed) Milk thistle is an herb that is used for its ability to support liver, kidney, and gall bladder health. Milk Thistle contains the flavonoid silymarin, which is known to be the main contributor to many of its effects, including liver protection, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-viral properties. Milk Thistle was originally native to the Mediterranean but is now found throughout the world. This powerful plant was actually known as a weed in some areas, despite its therapeutic potential. When the leaves are crushed they release a milky sap, giving this herb its characteristic name. Silymarin, the active component within the plant, is actually a group of compounds (silibinin, silidianin, and silicristin), which work together to provide multiple health benefits. Silymarin actas as an anti-fibrotic, which means it prevents tissue scarring, and it’s also thought to act as a “toxin blocking compound” by inhibiting the binding of toxins to liver cell membrane receptors. Silymarin used to treat alcoholic liver disease, acute and chronic viral hepatitis, and toxin-induced liver disease. This powerful compound has even been shown in animal studies to reduce liver injury caused by a number of drugs and environmental toxins, including heavy metals, pain medications, iron, and radiation. (Amount Per Serving - 250mg) Artichoke Leaf Extract (5% Cynarin) Believe it or not, this vegetable is a potent antioxidant with flavonoids (plant metabolites) for cellular health.

In men, it can also play a role in prostate health. Nettle root or Urtica dioica as it is also referred to, is best known for delivering powerful respiratory system support.

(Amount Per Serving - 75mg) Resveratrol (from Polygonum cuspidatum Root Standardized Extract) Resveratrol is a potent antioxidant found in certain fruits, vegetables, and cocoa that has come to prominence in the last decade as a modern "Fountain of Youth". Resveratrol promotes free-radical reduction with the help of antioxidants. It also supports the immune and cardiovascular systems, as well as healthy lipid levels. There has been a substantial amount of science and research behind this mysterious ingredient, most commonly known to be found in Red Wine. Resveratrol is typically associated with grapes and red wine, and is attributed with a large part of the so-called “French Paradox” -- the tendency for French people to have great cardiovascular health despite having a poor diet. The problem with drinking Wine for obtaining Resveratrol is that... well.. it doesn't work. The amount of resveratrol can vary greatly in wine. Based on available research, 1 ounce of wine will typically provide from 14 micrograms per ounce to as much as 284 micrograms per ounce. This means you'd need roughly 22 glasses of wine to match the resveratrol serving in 1 scoop of Nektar. While Red Wine can be delicious, we actually think Nektar is even better - and all without the hangover. (Amount Per Serving - 50mg) Co-Enzyme Q10 Co-Enzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is among the most popular supplements for mitochondrial health. From 2000 to 2016, the number of Americans using CoQ10 increased almost 12 times over, to approximately 24 million. As the population becomes more aware of mitochondrial and heart health, the usage of this supplement is expected to continue to grow. CoQ10 maintains a critical function in the electron transport chain (aka krebs cycle) of your mitochondria. Here it is essential for the creation of ATP, the biological energy currency needed by our cells for life, repair and regeneration. CoQ10 is a fat-soluble antioxidant, meaning it works in the fat portions of your body, such as your cell membranes. It works to remove potentially harmful byproducts of our natural metabolism known as reactive oxygen species (ROS). It is essentially a natural pollution removing compound. Using CoQ10 to help protect your mitochondria from oxidative damage, has shown to be helpful for a number of health conditions and chronic diseases. In patients with cancer, CoQ10 levels are typically very low. This is to be expected, since many conditions CoQ10 is known to be beneficial for, including heart disease and migraines, appear to be rooted in mitochondrial dysfunction. (Amount Per Serving - 50mg) Policosanol Policosanol is produced from all-natural sugar cane. Our ideal Policosanol source features the ideal ratios of octacosanol, triacontanol, and hexacosanol for promoting heart-healthy lipid levels in the bloodstream. This makes policosanol an excellent heart health and cholesterol balancing ingredient. (Amount Per Serving - 10mg)
