詳細資料
成份
葡萄籽萃取物一般提取自紅葡萄(而非白葡萄)的籽,含有大量稱為原花色素(OPC)的複合物,以及具抗氧化功效的多酚類。葡萄籽富含具強效抗氧化功效的多酚類複合物。
紅酒萃取物
紅酒萃取物是強效抗氧化物,存在於葡萄的藤、根、籽及莖中,葡萄皮中的含量最高。紅酒萃取物的抗氧化特質能鞏固微血管、動脈和靜脈,有助維持健康的血液循環和提升整體心血管健康。
90年代末,科學家注意到法國人的一個現象。某些省份的人進食較高脂肪的食物並同時飲用紅酒,而從古至今這些人患有心臟問題的比率非常低。科學家得出結論:紅酒所具有的保護特性多年來幫助法國人維持心臟健康。後續的科學研究更進一步證實,紅酒中所含的OPCs對維護心臟和血管的健康大為有益。
松樹皮萃取物(碧容健®,Pycnogenol®)
此萃取物擁有三項基本特質:抗氧化、選擇性結合膠原蛋白及彈力蛋白,以及協助內皮細胞製造一氧化氮,一氧化氮能促進血管的正常舒張。
歐洲藍莓萃取物
來自一種普遍歐洲常見的矮灌木,取其葉子與像莓子的果實,這種矮灌木是藍莓的非常近似。成熟的歐洲藍莓萃取物含有稱為花青素的類黃酮色素,是強效的抗氧化物。科學研究證明,歐洲藍莓有助支援健康的視力及靜脈血液循環,歐洲藍莓萃取物能鞏固微血管、動脈和靜脈,有助維持健康的血液循環。
柑橘類萃取物(生物類黃酮)
生物類黃酮是存在於部份植物的抗氧化物,也是吸收紫外線輻射的光線過濾器,保護容易受損的DNA鏈以及其他重要的大分子。現已發現生物類黃酮能改善心血管健康,具有抗炎作用,同時鞏固微血管、動脈和靜脈,繼而維持良好的血液循環。
維他命A(β-胡蘿蔔素/維他命A前導物)維他命A為脂溶性維他命。維他命的來源包括動物內臟(如肝臟和腎臟)、蛋黃、牛油、紅蘿蔔汁、南瓜、番薯、菠菜、桃、強化奶製品和鱈魚肝油。維他命A屬於視黃醇、視黃醛和β-胡蘿蔔素等複合物家族。β-胡蘿蔔素亦是維他命A原,當身體有額外需求時,便會轉化成維他命A。維他命A提供全身組織的正常發育及修護。維他命A能促進良好的夜視能力,支援正常的骨骼成長,協助抗氧化防禦,並支援健康的免疫系統。
維他命C(抗壞血酸)
維他命C存在於椒類(甜椒、青椒、紅椒、紅辣椒及青辣椒)、柑橘類水果、結球甘藍、椰菜花、椰菜、羽衣甘藍、芥蘭、芥菜、西蘭花、菠菜、番石榴、奇異果、黑加侖及士多啤梨等。堅果類及穀類亦含有微量的維他命C,維他命C的活性很容易因烹煮而受損。
硫胺素(維他命B1)
硫胺素對碳水化合物的正常代謝,和維持健全的神經系統扮演重要的角色。健康的神經系統需要硫胺素,協助製造神經傳導物質乙醯膽鹼和γ-胺基丁酸(GABA)。
泛酸(維他命B5)
泛酸(B5) 是幫助膽鹼轉化為乙酰膽鹼的轉換器。乙酰膽鹼有助維持正常的大腦神經傳導活動。
菸鹼酸(維他命B3)
維他命B3是水溶性的維他命,對健康、生長和生殖的許多層面來說都是必需的。它是維他命B群之一。菸鹼酸幫助維持正常的消化系統,以及皮膚和神經的運作。同時也有助轉化食物為能量。菸鹼酸(一般又稱為維他命B3)多存在於奶類製品、家禽、魚類、瘦肉、堅果、蛋、豆類、營養強化麵包以及早餐穀類中。
維他命B12(氰鈷胺)
維他命B12天然存在於在肉類、肝臟、牛肉、豬肉、蛋類、全脂牛奶、乳酪、全麥麵包和魚類中。維他命B12主要只能從動物製品中獲得,另外有少量來自發酵豆類製品,例如味噌、豆豉及花生。素食者必須使用維他命B12補充品以維持最佳的健康狀態。維他命B12在攝取後儲存於肝臟和其他組織內,以供日後使用。合成的維他命B12,又稱氰鈷胺,是無法由植物或動物本身萃取,對於維護細胞正常功能有著舉足輕重的影響力。這些組織會率先顯示出維他命B12不足的跡象。維他命B12本身負責維持最佳能量水平,因為它在克氏循環(Krebs energy cycle)中扮演關鍵角色。維他命B12同時也是一種重要的抗衰老元素,並有助集中注意力。
葉酸
葉酸主要存在於蔬果中。深綠色蔬菜、橙、橙汁、豆類、豌豆和啤酒酵母是提供葉酸的最佳來源。葉酸在提升B12補充品效用方面擔當關鍵的角色。這兩種維他命B協力合作,維護正常的紅血球細胞。葉酸有助氨基酸及蛋白質的正常使用,並促進製造脫氧核糖核酸DNA與核糖核酸RNA物質的合成,是身體所有功能必需的。科學研究發現當維他命B12與葉酸一起運作時,能支援正常的半胱胺酸水平。這有助支持健康的心血管與神經系統。
核黃素-5-磷酸鹽 (維他命B2)
維他命B2存在於肝臟、奶類製品、深綠色蔬菜和某些種類的海鮮。維他命B2是一種輔酵素,和其他的維他命B產生協同作用。維他命B2促進血液和神經系統的健康,以及正常人體生長。它可支援皮膚、指甲和頭髮的健康生長。維他命B2在食物轉換為能量的過程中扮演關鍵的角色,是電子傳送鏈的一部分,能給予細胞能量。維他命B2用作於激活維他命B6和葉酸同時,有助分解脂肪。維他命B2為水溶性,除非攝取量非常不足,否則無法儲存於人體內,因此必須每日補充。在某些情況下,維他命B2可作為抗氧化物。核糖黄素輔酶有助轉化維他命B6及葉酸的活性,同時幫助色胺酸轉化為菸鹼酸。
鹽酸吡哆辛(維他命B6)
維他命B6的主要來源是家禽、魚類、全穀類和香蕉。維他命B6是一種輔酵素,參與蛋白質和胺基酸的代謝轉化,並且幫助維持體液平衡,維他命B6有助維護健康的紅血球和白血球細胞。維他命B6參與血紅蛋白的合成。它參與腦和周圍神經細胞中神經遞質的合成,它被推薦作為一種營養素來增強心理功能,特別是情緒,並支援正常的神經傳導。維他命B6與葉酸一起食用時,已被證明有幫助維持同型半胱氨酸的正常血漿水平,從而促進心血管的健康。
維他命D3 (膽鈣化醇)
大多數人主要從太陽光中獲取維他命D。維他命D的飲食來源包括添加維他命D的牛奶(每杯含100 IU國際單位)、鱈魚肝油及富含脂肪的魚類,例如三文魚。蛋黃和肝臟含有少量的維他命D。維他命D能幫助吸收鈣質和磷,並協助製造幾種有助於鈣質吸收和儲存的蛋白質。維他命D與鈣兩者共同促進骨骼強壯。它能協助將骨細胞中的鈣質,運送至細胞外液和腎臟,促進腎小管順利吸收磷和鈣。維他命D有助腸道壁表面細胞正常吸收從飲食中攝取的鈣和磷。它促進組織健康生長及修護,並且維護皮膚的整體健康。
維他命E(d-α-生育醇琥珀酸酯)
維他命E重要的飲食來源包括蔬菜油、人造牛油、果仁、種籽、牛油果和小麥胚芽。紅花油富含大量的維他命E (¼杯中就約有⅔的每日建議攝取量),而粟栗米油和大豆油中僅含有微量。維他命 E 和生育醇 (tocopherols) 與三烯生育醇 (tocotrienols) 同屬相關的複合物家族 維他命 E有天然或合成形式。絕大多數時,天然形式和合成形式都是一樣,但天然形式的維他命E較能在體內吸收及留存。天然形式的α生育醇又被稱為d-α生育醇 (天然形式存在於Isotonix綜合維他命沖飲中)。合成形式dl-最常見於膳食補充品。在執行體重管理的人通常會注重飲食中脂肪的攝取量,他們由於減少攝取脂肪含量較高的食物,因此有可能也減少維他命E的攝取。
鈣(乳酸,磷酸鹽)
鈣質存在於牛奶、芝士、乳酪、墨西哥玉米餅、大白菜、羽衣甘藍和西蘭花中。鈣質是重要的礦物質,具有多項生物功能。鈣質主要以氫氧基磷灰石的形式,Ca10 (PO4)6 (OH)2,存在於骨骼之中。氫氧基磷灰石大約佔骨骼重量40%。骨骼是主要需要補充鈣質的人體結構,而且骨骼也是鈣質的儲藏室。鈣質是構建骨骼與牙齒的,同時促進正常的肌肉收縮、神經傳導及心血管健康,有助製造能量和維持健康的免疫系統。
要維持骨質密度及健康的牙齒與骨骼,每天必須補充足夠的鈣質。鈣質顯示能紓緩婦女的更年期症狀。若沒有每日攝取足夠的鈣質,身體會從骨骼中吸取鈣質,進而造成骨質流失和骨質疏鬆。骨質疏鬆是和年紀相關的骨質流失現象,可能導致危險的髖關節、肋骨、骨盆、以及其它衰老部位的骨頭斷裂。除骨質疏鬆外,高齡也會導致因為脊椎小部位的斷裂,慢慢累積而成的彎腰駝背。
鉻 (肌醇)
鉻天然存在於某些穀類、肉類、家禽類、啤酒酵母、西蘭花、西梅、菇類、魚類及啤酒。鉻已被證明有助於減少體內脂肪,控制飢餓感並抑制食慾。許多體重管理行業的人認為鉻是控制體重的重要礦物質。鉻也可能幫助身體結實和增加肌肉。
銅(葡萄糖酸鈣)
銅的最佳飲食來源是內臟、海鮮、堅果、種籽、小麥麩皮穀類、全麥製品、以及可可類產品。銅或具抗氧化功效,同時在鐵的代謝過程中扮演酵素成分的角色。銅是一種是很重要的微量礦物質。銅對於正常嬰兒發展、鐵質輸送、骨骼強度、心肌收縮、大腦發育及免疫功能,都是必須的。
碘(碘化鉀)
碘存在於大部分的海鮮及加碘食鹽。它有助於調節和維持正常的新陳代謝運作。
鎂(碳酸鹽)
富含鎂的食物包括未經打磨的穀物、果仁和綠色蔬菜。綠色葉菜類是鎂的豐富來源,因為其中含有葉綠素。肉類、澱粉類和牛奶中的鎂含量較少。精製加工食物一般鎂含量都相當低。鎂是協助骨骼礦物化的元素之一,是成人代謝鉀和鈣所不可或缺的成分。有助維持體內鉀、磷及鈣的含量於正常水平。對鈣的調動也十分重要,將鈣運輸到細胞內以便進一步運用。它在肌肉和神經組織的功能中起著關鍵作用。鎂是合成所有蛋白質、核酸、核苷酸、環腺苷酸一磷酸、脂質及碳水化合物所必需的。
鎂是釋放能量所必需的,並促進體溫的正常調節及適當的神經功能,協助身體處理壓力,並且促進正常的新陳代謝。重要的是,身體也需要鎂來建立健康的骨骼和牙齒,促進肌肉的正常發展。鎂、鈣及維他命D一起使用,有助維持骨骼強壯。鎂能促進心血管健康。
錳(葡萄糖酸鈣)
錳是一種大量存在於植物和動物裡的礦物質。富含錳的食物來源包括全穀類、堅果、葉菜和茶。含錳濃度最高的是穀物的穀皮部份,但通常穀物在加工時,穀皮都會被去除。錳有多種不同的形式存在營養補充品中,包括葡萄糖酸錳、硫酸錳、抗壞血酸錳、氨基酸螯合錳等。
鉀 (碳酸氫)
(碳酸氫鈉)富含鉀的食物包括了新鮮蔬果,例如香蕉、橙、哈蜜瓜、牛油果、生菠菜、椰菜及芹菜。鉀是幫助維持體液平衡的必要宏量礦物質。它還在各種生化和生理過程中發揮作用。此外,它還支援正常的神經脈衝,心臟、骨骼肌及平滑肌的收縮,製造能量,合成核酸,以及有助於維持細胞內滲透壓和血壓。鉀有助正常的肌肉放鬆,亦促進蛋白質的合成。鉀是一種電解質,促進正常心跳功能。鉀對於蛋白質、脂肪,與碳水化合物在代謝過程中的能量釋放也很重要。
鉀還有助於調節水分平衡,並有助恢復體力。鉀支援正常廢物清除。鉀促進正常的癒合,一般有助於提升身體健康感。鉀儲存於肌肉內。
硒(氨基酸螯合物)
硒的最佳飲食來源包括堅果、未加工穀類、糙米、小麥胚芽和海鮮。硒有助維他命E的抗氧化功效,也常被加入維他命E營養補充品內。作為抗氧化物,穀胱甘肽過氧化物酵素中的一部分,硒可直接保護細胞免受自由基的損害。
鋅(乳酸)
鋅大量存在於營養強化的穀類、紅肉、蛋、家禽和蠔等海鮮中。鋅是多種酵素和蛋白質的組成物。與基因表現的調節有關。鋅是一種必要的微量礦物質,參與三百多種不同的酵素反應。因此,鋅支援幾乎所有的生物化學途徑和生過程中起作用。體內90%以上的鋅都儲存於骨骼和肌肉中,但是幾乎在所有的身體組織都含有鋅。據稱鋅支援正常的癒合和免疫系統。
生物素
含有生物素(維他命B7)的食物包括蛋黃,花生,牛肝,牛奶(10微克/杯),早餐穀類,杏仁以及啤酒酵母。生物素有助維持細胞的健康成長,脂肪酸的製造,以及脂肪和氨基酸的代謝。它在檸檬酸循環中起作用,檸檬酸循環是在有氧呼吸過程中產生生化能量的過程。生物素不僅有助於各種代謝化學的轉化,同時也有助於二氧化碳的轉移。生物素通常被推薦用於強化頭髮和指甲。
常見問答
每個組合包中包括Isotonix OPC-3沖飲、Isotonix 綜合維他命沖飲、Isotonix全效維他命B沖飲及Isotonix鈣高效吸收沖飲。
Isotonix營養補充品為何比其他營養補充產品優勝?
Isotonix配方以最佳的方式傳輸維他命與礦物質的營養到血液中,因此比其他一般產品更有效。Isotonix配方亦是吸收維他命、礦物質和營養素的最快最有效方式。當食用Isotonix系列時,由於產品的酸鹼值與強度皆經精心設計,胃部幾乎不須處理即可將所有的營養素釋放到小腸中。藉著Isotonix的等滲透配方,大約5分鐘小腸即可吸收到營養,而一般的維他命錠劑卻可花上4小時才能完成。
Isotonix OPC-3沖飲與其他的生物類黃酮產品有何不同?
Isotonix OPC-3(含碧容健)提供經科學證實的原花色素(OPC)組合,這些原花色素已被證實對人體健康的功效是極高的。除了作為強效抗氧化物外,OPC-3中含有各種的原花色素,皆被證實能提供多方面的健康益處。OPC-3所包含的以科學為本的原花色素組合是獨有的,而它的Isotonix等滲透傳送系統也是同樣獨有的,這系統讓人體能迅速並高度有效地吸收原花色素。強效的營養成分加上高效的傳輸系統,讓OPC-3成為最有效清除自由基的產品。
為甚麼我需要食用綜合維他命?
高品質的維他命及礦物質營養補充品,能為均衡的飲食帶來完整的微量營養素基礎。維他命及礦物質有助於維繫健康的免疫系統,促進食物轉化為能量,維護心血管健康,促進骨骼強壯,保持頭腦清晰,維持正常的新陳代謝,促進健康發育及組織修護,並維持體內的水分和電解質平衡。
為甚麼維他命B群在老化的過程中這麼重要?
隨著年紀漸長,吸收B類維他命的能力自然下降,而認知功能受損的多種指標與B類維他命水平下降有關。許多長者都會味覺減退,因而影響食慾,可能會利用很多減少胃酸的藥物,使他們患上 B12 缺乏症。維他命B12是一種非常難以吸收並消化的營養,但也是參與多種人體機能的最重要維他命之一,這些機能包括神經系統的最佳運作、脫氧核糖核酸(DNA)及核糖核酸(RNA)的正常合成、能量的正常產生及血液的健康。
為甚麼我要補充鈣質?
根據美國公共衛生署長,每天服用鈣質營養補充品是預防和治療缺鈣症狀,以及幫助降低骨質疏鬆風險的關鍵。目前,本地超過三分之一的停經後的女性患有骨質疏鬆。最近臨床統計數據表明,老年男性也很可能會患上骨質疏鬆。
每個人都需要鈣質,基本上,沒有人能從日常飲食中攝入足夠的鈣。除有助於支持和維持骨骼的完整外,鈣也是相當重要的礦物質。在支持多種身體酵素活動及維持適當液體平衡方面,鈣的存在非常重要。Isotonix鈣高效吸收沖飲有助於骨骼與肌肉的正常收縮。
我既健康又愛好運動,為甚麼還要食用Isotonix OPC-3沖飲?
面對自由基不斷的侵害而造成的老化過程時,每個人都是一樣脆弱,而運動員面對的氧化壓力更高。氧氣與卡路里反應的代謝過程中,會產生自由基作為副產品。運動員運動時所吸入的氧氣量比靜止時高出10至20倍,而加大運動量會產生更多自由基。事實上,這些自由基也會影響運動員表現,因為自由基似乎也會影響肌肉組織。研究發現,業餘運動員食用原花色素後,耐力增加了20%,此研究採用的對照組別則食用外表相似的食品。另一項研究也顯示,食用原花色素的運動員在運動中與運動後的酸痛也大大減低。Isotonix OPC-3沖飲有助維持健康的血液流通,因此可支援氧氣運輸到肌肉。
Isotonix 基本營養組合包有任何使用上的限制或須注意事項嗎?
Isotonix OPC-3沖飲、Isotonix綜合維他命沖飲、Isotonix全效維他命B沖飲及Isotonix鈣高效吸收沖飲為素食產品且不含小麥、麩質、大豆、酵母、人工香料、澱粉、鹽或奶。
如果你患有疾病或正服用處方藥物,或為懷孕或哺乳中婦女,使用本品前,請先諮詢醫護人員意見。
是的。每食用份量含4.5毫克鐵質。
Isotonix基本營養組合包安全及不含有害物質。本產品在美國製造,並經美國食品及藥物管理局檢測設備生產,符合生產規範。顧客對本產品的質量和安全可絕對有信心。

Amazing results!
This product is the Best all around vitamin combination on the market in my opinion! It tastes great, and I feel energized after taking it. I still have my coffee out of habit and my love of coffee, but if I had to choose one or the other to start my day, I would not miss my daily essentials!

Love the delivery system
I love flavor and it can be mixed with other products. I feel very “healthy”. I mix with magnesium and energy while I work out in the mornings. It’s all a great substitute for caffeinated energy drinks. I’m getting everything I need in one drink and notice all the benefits
