In this new blog post we look at the fruit Camu Camu. Camu camu is a red/purple cherry from the Amazon Rainforest. It is considered a nutritional powerhouse and one of the 21 super fruits – foods – herbs in the Freelife Jule of the Orient Jiaogulan tonic.
Camu-Camu is one of the most important nutritional supplements that you can take.
Other names for Camu-camu are rumberry, guavaberry, mirto, murta, guayabillo, coco-carette, merisier-cerise, bois de basse batard, cabo de chivo, escobillo, mije, mije colorado, and mijo.
Camu camu provides nutritional support for a healthy immune system, and support for the brain, lymph glands, heart and lungs. It is also an excellent antioxidant and has anti-inflammatory properties.
Camu Camu has an extraordinarily high Vitamin C content. In fact it has the highest concentration of Vitamin C among all fruits on earth. The Camu-Camu fruit provides about 30- 50 times more Vitamin C than an orange. The vitamin C from Camu camu helps protect the fat-soluble vitamins A and E as well as fatty acids from oxidation. Camu Camu vitamin “C” as found in nature consists of enzymes, bioflavonoids and many other components that together are referred to as the P factor. These P factors benefit the body in numerous other ways besides antioxidant activity. The P factors strengthen the vascular system.
Plus camu camu contains natural beta-carotene, calcium, iron, niacin, phosphorus, protein, riboflavin, thiamin and the amino acids valine, leucine and serine.
In this new blog post we look at the bilberry an absolute nutritional powerhouse and one of the 21 super fruits – foods in the Freelife Jule of the Orient Jiaogulan tonic. Few plants are as beneficial for the health of human beings as Bilberry. Bilberries are the low growing shrubs that bear fruit. It is related to cranberries and blueberries. Bilberry is a perennial, ornamental shrub that is commonly found in various climates in damp woodlands and moorlands. In the United States they are often called huckleberries.
The bilberry gained fame during World War II as an aid to help pilots. British Royal Air Force pilots ate Bilberry preserves before night missions as an aid to night vision. It works by helping the eyes better adjust to quick change in light. Bilberry works by improving the microcirculation and regeneration of retinal purple, a substance required for good eyesight.
Bilberry has long been recommended for poor vision and “night blindness.” Clinical tests confirm that given orally it improves visual accuracy in healthy people.
Bilberry supports heart health by improving blood circulation as well as supporting the health of arteries. Moreover Bilberry contains many antiseptic properties as well.
The bilberry is a strong antioxidant that keeps capillary walls strong and flexible. It also helps to maintain the flexibility of the walls of red blood cells, which allows them to pass through the capillaries better. Bilberry contains anthocyanidins and phytochemicals which support healthy blood pressure, and enhance blood supply to the nervous system. Studies indicate that anthocyanidins can provide up to 50 times the antioxidant protection of vitamin E and 10 times the protection of vitamin C. In addition, bilberry supports and strengthens collagen structures, assists with the body’s normal response to inflammation, and has anti-aging properties.
Bilberry’s fruit contains flavonoids, Vitamins A and C, providing antioxidant protection which can help prevent free radical damage to the eyes. Vitamin A is required for sharp vision, while Vitamin C helps form collagen and is needed for growth and repair of tissue cells and blood vessels.
Anthocyanosides support and protect collagen structures in the blood vessels of the eyes, assuring strong, healthy capillaries that carry vital nutrients to eye muscles and nerves.
Today we look at the blueberry a nutritional powerhouse and one of the 21 super fruits – foods in the Freelife Jule of the Orient Jiaogulan tonic.
Blueberries typically grow in northern climates like Maine. Blueberry bushes bear fruit from May through June although the growing altitude and latitude will affect when the bushes will bear fruit.
Blueberries are packed with a wide range of micronutrients, with notably high levels of the essential dietary mineral manganese, vitamin B6, vitamin C, vitamin K and dietary fiber. Also they contain Dietary fiber, Protein, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin (Vitamin B3), Pantothenic acid (B5), Vitamin E, Calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium, and Zinc.
Blueberries are just one more super fruit that shows why Jule of the Orient tonic truly is such an outstanding super food product.
Blueberries, especially the wild species, contain anthocyanins, other antioxidant pigments and various phytochemicals which greatly support nutritional health. Researchers have shown that blueberry anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, resveratrol, flavonols, and tannins inhibit free radicals activity, which assists with the body’s normal response to inflammation.. Similar to red grape, some blueberry species contain in their skins significant levels of resveratrol, a very valuable antioxidant and phytochemical.
Consuming blueberries (and similar berry fruits including cranberries) provides many benefits for the mind, including improvements in mental focus, concentration, and mental sharpness.
Addition clinical studies have shown blueberries to be beneficial for maintaining cholesterol and blood lipids already in the normal range and for maintaining blood pressure already within the normal range.
Antioxidants are thought to help protect the body against the damaging effects of free radicals associated with the aging process. Blueberries, contain many of these naturally occurring antioxidants such as Vitamins C and E. In addition, blueberries contain anthocyanins and phenolics that can also act as antioxidants. Based on data from the USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging blueberries are among the fruits with the highest antioxidant activity.
Using a test called ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity), researchers have shown that a serving of fresh blueberries provides more antioxidant activity than many other fresh fruits and vegetables.
Well here we are again back looking at each of the 21 super fruits – nutrients in the Freelife Jule of the Orient Jiaogulan tonic. Tonight we feature the Pomegranate fruit. Pomegranates are now used in a number of health products due to studies showing that the fruit contains a high amount of antioxidants that are beneficial to our health in numerous ways. Just one more nutrient that shows why Jule of the Orient truly is such an outstanding product.
Pomegranates are originally from Asia and the Middle East, the pomegranate fruit is also known as the Chinese apple and by the name Granada. Today the pomegranate fruit is largely grown is India, Africa and the United States. The pomegranate fruit grows best in hot climate areas.
A little American history – Thomas Jefferson planted pomegranates at his home in Monticello in 1771.
Pomegranates are a great source of vitamin C, vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid), and potassium, and pomegranate juice contains antioxidants polyphenols that will help to protect your blood lipids from oxidation.
The most abundant polyphenols in pomegranate juice are the hydrolyzable tannins called punicalagins which have free-radical scavenging properties in laboratory experiments.
Other phytochemicals contained in pomegranates include polyphenols catechins, gallocatechins, and anthocyanins, which is a valuable antioxidant.. The ORAC score or antioxidant capacity of pomegranate juice has been measured at 2,860 units per 100 grams.
In addition, pomegranate juice, like aspirin, can help keep blood platelets from clumping together to form unwanted clots.
Recent research has found that eight ounces of pomegranate juice daily for three months improved the amount of oxygen getting to the heart muscle.
There is evidence to suggest that pomegranates may also support healthy joints.
The astringent qualities of the pomegranate flower juice, rind and tree bark are considered valuable for a variety of purposes. They have been used for toning skin, (after blending with mustard oil) and even firming-up sagging breasts.
The Acai Berry is just one of the 21 amazing supernutrients in Jule of the Orient. The amazing Jiaogulan herbal tonic. Here is some interesting information about the amazing Acai Berry. Acai is rated as one of the highest antioxidant containing fruits in the world. Acai has 10 times the antioxidant level of grapes and twice that of blueberries. Acai also has up to 30 times the Anthocyanins of red wine.
Acai can have a fairly high ORAC score – fresh acai berries (100 grams) can have an excellent ORAC antioxidant score of up to 5500. However, freeze dried acai (100 grams) can have an off the chart ORAC antioxidant score of over 70,000. These are totals – this means you would have to eat 100 grams or about 3 and a half ounces of fresh acai berries to get 5500. And eating 1 gram of freeze dried acai would give you an ORAC score of 700 per gram.
Second ORAC is only a measure of antioxidant potential in a test tube and doesn’t mean it will have the same effect in the human body. I’m not saying antioxidant products are like this but the potential exists to create a product with a very high off the charts ORAC score and it would be worthless as far an antioxidant capacity in the human body.
Also even if it is effective in the human body ORAC scores over a certain amount are worthless – the human body can only benefit from a certain ORAC score on a daily basis (About 5000 ORAC per day).
The amazing benefits of Acai include increased energy, anti-aging, improved sleep and strong heart health, just to name a few.
Let’s examine what Acai contains from a nutritional standpoint.
First Acai is very rich in vitamins and minerals. Acai contains Vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, C and E. Acai contains as much Vitamin C as blueberries. Acai also contains the minerals potassium, calcium, magnesium, copper and zinc.
Acai is a very valuable source of Plant Sterols There have been 3 specific plant or sometime called photosterols that are contained in Acai – B-sitosterol, campesterol and sigmasterol. Photosterols have numerous health benefits like healthy heart and digestive function.
Acai is also a very valuable source of Amino Acids and Protein. 19 different amino acids have been identified in Acai.
Also the Acai berry is a very rich source of the healthy unsaturated Omega fats like Omega 3, Omega 6 and Omega 9. Almost half of the Acai berry is fat, with 74% of the fat being the healthy unsaturated fats like Omega 3.
More information on Acai - the Acai berry is 90% seed, with only 10% of the berry edible. So be careful – the seed has not been proven to provide health benefits so avoid any products that use the seed, they are a terrible value.
Also you may have seen advertisements for Acai Berry weight loss products. These are a total scam. There has been no research that indicates drinking acai berry juice or taking acai supplements will result in weight loss.
Also with Acai avoid spray dried, it is vastly inferior to freeze-dried Acai. Also with Acai products that are called extracts are typically not that good a product as you want all the nutrients from the Acai other then the seeds.

Trans-Resveratrol is one of the most exciting and most-researched of the new waves of phytonutrients. Found in red wine grapes, it is said to be responsible for the phenomenon known as the “French Paradox.”
That’s the term that’s used to describe the puzzling observation that, although the French people exercise little, smoke cigarettes, and eat fatty foods, their incidence of obesity, high blood pressure, and heart disease are among the lowest in the world. It has been said that this is because of their consumption of red wine, and the protection that it gives them. And that’s thanks to trans-Resveratrol. Although it’s only found in tiny amounts in red wine, it is so powerful as an anti-aging nutrient that, in laboratory tests, it has successfully increased the healthy lifespan – the health-span – of cells by as much as 50%.
Standardized spice extracts are another new addition to anti-aging nutritional supplements. In the days before refrigeration, smart cooks noted that spicy dishes kept their freshness longer than bland ones. Scientists now know that certain spices contain powerful joint-protective antioxidants and metabolic enhancers, and they can even help to maintain gastrointestinal health by guarding against potentially dangerous colonic yeast growth. A truly comprehensive daily supplement will feature powerful extracts of ginger, rosemary, oregano, cinnamon, and turmeric. You should be able to smell them when you open the bottle!
Adaptogenic herbs are a mainstay of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), where they are used to help the body adapt to everyday stress. In TCM, the most famous adaptogen of all is the goji berry, which is often taken together with astragalus root and shiitake mushroom for their immune-enhancing qualities, panax ginseng for its balancing and restorative properties, reishi mushroom to support proper circulation, and schizandra berry to enhance vitality. These ancient herbs are now scientifically-supported in dozens of research studies.
Probiotics are friendly bacteria that are essential for colon and digestive health. There are many probiotic supplements available, but many require refrigeration. Look for supplements made with Lactospore, a patented and highly active probiotic that has clinically proven efficacy and great room temperature stability.
It also contains the exclusive ingredient GoZanthene which is a special mixture of goji berry fruit and marigold flower extract standardized to provide 1500 mcg of zeaxanthin, lutein and lycopene. These special nutrients are especially valuable to the eyes.
These are just some of the noteworthy nutrients that you’ll find in the most advanced daily supplements, and we’re certain that we’ll be reporting on many more breakthroughs in the years to come. We’ll keep our eyes focused on the cutting edge of nutrition science, so you can keep your edge in the war against aging!
