ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) Several methods have recently been developed to measure the total antioxidant capacity of biological samples. But the ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) method is unique, says developer Guohua Cao. Comparing Antioxidants - Highest O.R.A.C. A new laboratory test known as ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) was developed by USDA researchers at a Local University to rate the antioxidant levels of fruits and vegetables. It ranks the Ningxia wolfberry, also known as the Goji-berry as the best antioxidant food in the world. Ningxia Red Juice VS The Competition Wow - look at how Ningxia Red Juice compares to the "so-called" competion! ORAC measures the degree to which a sample inhibits the action of an oxidizing agent and how long it takes to do so. Then it integrates the two measurements into a single one. This provides an accurate and reproducible measurement for different types of antioxidants having different strengths. "Whole fruits and vegetables contain a mixture of natural antioxidants that can protect the vulnerable compounds." Hundreds of years ago, Spanish Explorer Ponce de Leon set out on a quest for a magical fountain of water that was said to offer rejuvenation and immortality to all who drank from it. Traveling through the New World, he uncovered numerous legends regarding the water, and yet, he never located the enchanted spring... D. Gary Young, founder and president of Young Living Essential Oils, embarked on a similar odyssey in 1973, following a devastating logging accident. From a wheelchair, he vowed not only to walk again, but to find health, vitality, and longevity. For nearly 30 years, he single-mindedly continued his pursuit. Then, in 1994 Gary was approached by a Chinese scientist who was visiting the United States on a fact-gathering assignment. Dr. Songqiao Zhao, senior researcher at the Chinese Science Academy, told Gary about a simple, delicious-tasting berry with amazing health benefits. He said that Chinese wolfberries had been used for thousands of years to treat a wide range of illnesses. What's more, the people who consumed them on a regular basis lived remarkably healthy lives for 100-plus years. Intrigued by the story, Gary began an investigation that eventually led to the creation of some of the most exciting health products in the world. Superfood: Chinese Wolfberries Chinese wolfberries grow in a remote area of central China near Inner Mongolia. Considered a treasure by the local people, they have been studied by Chinese physicians for thousands of years. One Chinese Medica dating back 2,000 years cites their use in treatments ranging from replenishing vital essences to strengthening and restoring major organs.(1,2) More recently, comprehensive analyses have found that wolfberries contain 18 types of amino acids, 21 trace minerals, 29 fatty acids, vitamins B1, B2, B6, E, more beta carotene than carrots, more Vitamin C than oranges, and as much protein as bee pollen. What's more, they are a source of superoxide dismutase and phenylpropanoids. Numerous studies by the Chinese government have shown that Chinese wolfberries are extremely useful for boosting the immune system, protecting the liver, improving the quality of blood, and improving vision.(3,4,5,6) Ningxia Red Juice Encouraged by the prospect of an all-natural, good-tasting substance that could be so helpful in improving health, Gary determined to find ways to share the benefits of the wolfberry with people everywhere. Young Living Essential Oils, the largest importer of wolfberries in the world, now offers the power of wolfberries as a delicious, refreshing beverage: Ningxia Red. Ningxia Red Juice is a super antioxidant berry juice containing the highest known antioxidants used by some of the longest-living people on earth.

Many chronic conditions—including aging—are believed to result from accumulated damage caused by free radicals. Fortunately, antioxidants have proven an effective weapon against them. "Young and middle-aged people may be able to reduce risk of disease by adding high ORAC foods to their diets," states Floyd P. Horn, Administrator of the Agricultural Research Service, the chief scientific agency of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Antioxidants help neutralize the effects of free radicals, allowing the body to restore itself to the proper balance that leads to health and well-being. To help you combat the damaging effects of free radicals, simply take a single serving (one ounce) of Ningxia Red Juice, which supplies 267 percent of the Daily Value of the antioxidant vitamin C, along with a host of other nutrients. What a delicious way to protect your health! Drinking a single ounce of Ningxia Red Juice every day will do more for your health than you can imagine! Our bodies are bombarded daily by the damaging effects of free radicals that are created through normal metabolic functions. In fact, Dr. Bruce Ames of the University of California at Berkeley estimates that the DNA of each of our cells is attacked by free radicals over 10,000 times per day. Added to that is the polluted environment we inhabit in today's world, which increases the scope of the problem. Uninterrupted, free radicals can wreak havoc with DNA, enzymes,   ORAC Top Antioxidant Foods Ningxia Red Juice™ 4,214 A new laboratory test known as ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity), developed by USDA researchers, rates Ningxia Red Juice™ as the number one antioxidant product on the market. Developed by Dr. Guohua Cao at USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at a local University, the ORAC test is one of the most sensitive and reliable methods for measuring the ability of antioxidants to absorb free radicals. It is the only test to combine both time and degree of inhibition of free radicals. Comparative analyses against Tahitian NONI™ and other fruits showed Ningxia Red Juice's supreme advantage over all antioxidant nutritionals. Ningxia wolfberry (Lycium barbarum v. Ningxia) was shown to have the single highest antioxidant ability of any food tested.
