Bioactive Beverages
A food (including beverages) is considered bioactive when the human body can absorb it and make use of not simply to meet basic nutritional needs but in addition about physiological health benefits that actually improve an individual’s health. Major sources of bioactive food ingredients are found in fruits and vegetables.
A Bioactive Beverage utilizes these phytonutients in a liquid form for beneficial results. Research has shown that not all bioactive liquids are the same. A number of respected juices that are produced from acai, gac or mangosteen fruit, among others, contain carotenoids and flavonoids. Although healthful, flavonoids and betacarotene quickly degrade if they come in contact with heat and light. For instance it had been observed that after 30 days storage at room temperature the acai fruit pulp’s flavonoids suffer a loss of up to 35% of their stability and 80% following four months.
One bioactive beverage which preserves its potency is Tahitian Noni® Bioactive Beverages. Years of studies have proven that the noni fruit, particularly those harvested in the French Polynesian Islands have a wide array of unique bioactive compounds. Most of these bioactive compounds are extremely soluble enabling them to quickly travel throughout the body through the bloodstream where they are assimilated by cells. Altogether, Tahitian Noni® Bioactive Beverages include 12 unique nutrients classified as iridoids which are a key component in its ensuing health benefits. Fourteen Human clinical trials testing Tahitian Noni® Bioactive Beverages have already been done in these subject areas: Immune Function, Energy and Endurance, Cardiovascular Health, Joint Health, Antioxidant Protection
As indicated at the bottom of our web pages about Tahitian Noni® Juice along with the new Tahitian Noni® Family™ Bioactive Beverages and specificaly these statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration and these products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
