Sonoran Bloom Nopalea

There’s been a lot of talk about TriVita’s Sonoran Bloom Nopalea, and for good reason. The betalains, the main nutrient of the Nopal cactus, are known as a natural and powerful anti-inflammatory nutrient, one that fights inflammation and thus, helps to relieve chronic pain that is caused by inflammation.

In a recent "anti-aging" conference, the topic that got the most attention was the destruction and rebuilding of cells within the human body. As a result, one presenter was actually talking about betalains and the Nopal cactus, the key ingredient of TriVita’s Sonoran Bloom Nopalea.

Brazos Minshew, TriVita’s Chief Science Officer, writes about the conference, stem cells, and the Nopal cactus. I’ve included the complete article below:

Nopalea and Stem Cells – by Brazos Minshew, TriVita’s Chief Science Officer

I attended an anti-aging conference recently. The discussions were about natural and pharmaceutical ways to slow the aging process and extend the vitality/longevity of humans. There were 20 speakers from around the world. All 20 of these physicians and professors eventually discussed stem cells as a way to slow aging and speed healing.

What are stem cells and how can they help us live long, healthy lives? Are there natural products that can assist us as we age?

What are stem cells?
At conception, cells begin to divide into what will become a person. Along the way the cells "differentiate" – that is, they become different tissues. Some become the heart, others the brain and so on until the complete human is formed. These are called "embryonic" stem cells. Highly controversial experiments are being conducted with samples of these cells.

Once a person is formed, does the human body stop making stem cells? No, because stem cells are part of our miraculous healing process. We make stem cells every day of our life. These are different from embryonic stem cells because they actually replace other cells. You see, every cell in your body has a life span. When that cell dies it needs to be replaced. Stem cells made in your bone marrow and other places in your body follow a chemical trail back to the place where the cell dies and "differentiate" into the type of cell that died.

Aging can be defined as the process of cell death and cell replacement. Premature aging is when more cells die than you can replace in a single day. Chronic disease and disability often accompany premature aging, as you might imagine. Stem cells replace dead cells. So, the more stem cells you can make in a day, the slower you are aging, the more vital you may be, and the less likely you are to experience the chronic diseases associated with premature aging. All 20 of the experts at the anti-aging conference endorsed doing all we can to promote stem cell production by our own body.

Making stem cells
As I mentioned, we make stem cells every day. Dying cells release enzymes into your bloodstream. Your brain interprets the level of enzymes and sends an appropriate amount of Human growth hormone (HgH). When the HgH reaches the bone marrow or other stem cell "nursery," it triggers the release of a number of stem cells that roughly correspond to the amount of HgH. The stem cells follow the chemical trail left by the enzymes of the dying cell. They follow the trail back to the space left by the dead cell and nestle into the tissues. Once there, they differentiate into the cell they replace – they literally become the exact type of cell they replaced.

Nutrients are required for making cells (including stem cells). If you are deficient in any critical nutrient at the moment you create stem cells, one of two things will happen:

1. Your bone marrow will refuse the order to meet that quota of stem cells, causing premature aging, or
2. The cells will be made, but without the nutrients critical for the health and longevity of the cell. When a deficient cell matures it becomes the target for inflammation and disease.

Cells need nutrients. Without all of the appropriate nutrients on board at all times, we will not be able to make as many healthy cells as we lose in a day. The disparity between how many cells we lose and how many we can replace is premature aging.

More stem cells
Nutrients serve as the foundation for stem cells. However, specific nutrients also stimulate the production of stem cells. At the anti-aging conference, six stem cell-stimulating nutrients were identified. As one speaker neared the end of his presentation, he talked about "a curious bioflavonoid" found in great abundance in prickly pears from the Nopal cactus. Of course, he was talking about Betalains! It turns out that Betalains along with Vitamin B-12 may help your body increase the production of stem cells.

More healthy stem cells close the gap between the numbers of cells that die and the number of cells we replace every day. That equals slower aging. So, take your nutrients every day: Men’s and Women’s Wellavoh for the nutrient foundation we need, Super Sublingual B-12 and Nopalea to encourage an abundant crop of anti-aging stem cells!

Sonoran Bloom

The main ingredient of TriVita’s Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ is the nopal cactus. Why? Because studies show that the nopal (the prickly pear cactus) is a valuable health supporting nutrient. The nopal helps support immune, glandular, nervous, circulatory, respiratory and digestive systems.

Below is additional information on the real value of the nopal, and why it has been chosen to be the main ingredient in Nopalea™. Even though this information has not been verified by the FDA, many independent scientific studies have compiled the follow information.

The nopal’s 18 amino acids provide you with more energy & reduces fatigue by helping the body to lower blood sugar. The nopal strengthens the liver & pancreas thereby increasing sensitivity to insulin which stimulates the movement of glucose from the blood into body cells where it is used as energy. It also slows the digestion of carbohydrates which in turn slows insulin production.

The nopal is high in nutrients that helps to strengthen the liver and the pancreas. The health of these two organs is vitally important for the proper conversion of carbohydrate sugars into stored glycogen, which is then useable as energy by the body. The production of insulin and the sensitivity of body cells to insulin is necessary to move glucose from the blood stream into body cells where it is used as energy. The nopal helps to detoxify and support the functions of the liver and pancreas, while improving body cell response to insulin stimulation.

The active ingredients found in the nopal aid in preventing the digestive system from absorbing excess dietary fat and carbohydrate sugars, thereby maintaining proper blood sugar balance and helping to control obesity. The nopal contains high levels of both soluble and insoluble dietary fibers. Soluble fibers present in the nopal include mucilages, pectin, gums and some hemicellulose. Insoluble fibers include cellulose, lignan and remaining hemicellulose. The nopal is a gentle alternative to psyllium (a well-known fiber supplement taken for colon cleansing) for those with a sensitivity or allergy to psyllium.

Phytochemicals are powerful allies for the body’s immune system, by allowing the body defend itself against pathogens. Recent studies have found that among the phytochemicals found in the nopal are the types that inhibit cancerous cell growth and may even help prevent cancer from developing. Animal studies confirm this, showing that dosages of juice from the nopal increase immune system efficiency in controlling tumor growth, Epstein-Barr virus and suppressed immune response.

The nopal acts in several ways that have been found to reduce the risk of heart disease. First, the fiber found in the nopal acts to absorb and excrete cholesterol in the digestive system. Secondly, the amino acids, fiber and B3 (niacin) found in the nopal prevents excess sugar conversions into fats, while reducing triglyceride and LDL cholesterol levels, by metabolizing fat and fatty acids and eliminating excess bile acids which eventually convert into cholesterol. Thirdly, the B3 (niacin) in the nopal acts to convert LDL (bad) cholesterol to HDL (good) forms of cholesterol.

Further studies suggest that the amino acids and fiber, together with the anti-oxidant effect of the vitamin C and vitamin A (B-carotene) found in the nopal, aid in preventing blood vessel wall damage and the formation of fatty plaques in the arteries (arteriosclerosis).

The nopal helps to prevent diabetic Neuropathy (nerve damage) and aids in the balancing and calming of the nervous system, which creates a sense of well being and benefits the body’s overall function.

The nopal is a natural source of 18 Amino acids, 8 of which must be ingested as food. Vitamins A, E, and C act as antioxidants. Vitamin B (niacin) lowers cholesterol. Vitamin B12 protect against atherosclerosis. Vitamin E helps prevent blood clots and the formation of fatty plaques on the walls of the arteries and helps counteract nerve damage associated with adult-onset diabetes. Folic acid reduces risk the of stroke and together with B12 help prevent cells from becoming malignant. The nopal is an excellent source of these important vitamins in a natural form.

I know your probably thinking that all these fantastic attributes surrounding the nopal cactus seem to good to be true. I’d be skeptical also if I read this. That’s why I suggest you go to Google and do a search for the nopal cactus, and/or Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™. I’m sure you will find that the nopal cactus is one true natural fruit that delivers results. However, it’s not a fruit that is typically sold in stores.

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ delivers results, just like the nopal cactus. To learn more about TriVita and Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™, click on the previous links.
