Metabolicare® is a food supplement containing a standardized bergamot extract (Vazguard®) formulated with Fitosoma® technology, which increases the absorption and bioavailability of polyphenols, along with a chromium-enriched yeast (NutraFeast®).Bergamot
Bergamot (Citrus bergamia Risso & Poit.) is a hybrid citrus fruit between a bitter orange and a lemon, native to tropical Asia, but cultivated for centuries in the Calabria region of Italy.
This small, 5-meter-high tree belongs to the Rutaceae family, with large, dark green, ovate leaves similar to those of lemons, fragrant star-shaped white flowers, and round, greenish-yellow fruits. The peel of the pear-shaped fruit contains essential oils and other bioactive components, while the juice contains a unique array of polyphenols, especially a type of flavonoid called flavanones.
Bergamot extract (Vazguard®) comes exclusively from the fruits of crops grown in the Calabria region (southern Italy). What does the patented Fitosoma® formula consist of?
Bergamot polyphenols are poorly absorbed in the intestine, so it is important to incorporate a formulation that increases their bioavailability.
Fitosoma® technology uses a patented method by which the individual components of a plant extract are coated with a phospholipid (phosphatidylcholine or phosphatidylserine). The human body recognizes these phospholipids as nutrients and allows the active ingredients in plants to naturally cross cell membranes, optimizing their absorption.
Simply put: Fitosoma® Technology mimics the natural process of nutrient absorption, delivering the plant's active ingredient into the cell.
Yeast enriched with chromium
Chromium-enriched yeast (NutraFeast®) is a high-quality option. It uses the same type of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) used to make beer, bread, or kombucha, but with a different end product. It is a primary culture yeast, meaning it is specifically cultivated for its nutritional value, not as a byproduct. The main difference between baker's yeast and nutritional yeast is that nutritional or fortified yeast is inactive, so it cannot grow in the body. Its natural fermentation process is free of candida or other bacteria.
Chromium-enriched yeast offers organic forms of this mineral, which are more easily absorbed than inorganic forms (chloride and picolinate). A commitment to product quality and purity
Chromium-enriched yeast (NutraFeast®) uses a non-GMO yeast strain (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) that is blended with a mineral salt (chromium) after fermentation. A high-quality wet-blend process is used to maximize the consistency of mineral potency in every batch.
Metabolicare® fully respects the nature of the ingredients, naturally enhancing their absorption and, therefore, their effectiveness in our bodies, creating a product of high quality, tolerability, and safety. How can Metabolicare® help us?
Bergamot extract (Vazguard®) has a unique pattern of polyphenols, especially flavonoids (flavanones), which are naturally found in its juice and have health benefits documented in clinical trials. Chromium contributes to the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels. Chromium contributes to normal macronutrient metabolism.
