How it works
Maintain -- the deep pigments in berries and dark produce act as potent free-radical scavengers and reduce lipid peroxidation
Exchange -- studied for supporting vascular endothelial function and capillary integrity, relevant to nutrient/blood exchange across vessel walls
Adapt -- influence Nrf2 and inflammatory gene-expression pathways similar to other polyphenol classes
Process -- berry-anthocyanin intake is associated in small trials with cognitive-processing and memory measures in older adults
Form matters
The same nutrient can be made in very different forms -- and a study done on one form does not automatically apply to another. Methylcobalamin is not cyanocobalamin; magnesium glycinate is not magnesium oxide; a whole-food extract is not the synthetic isolate that was studied. Two things decide whether what is in the bottle behaves like the research: the exact form, and independent lab verification (a Certificate of Analysis) that the form and dose on the label are truly what is inside. Without a COA, you are trusting a label, not the science.
