EpiGaia's Antioxidant Power Out Rates Most Popular Health Drinks ROY, Utah--(Business Wire)-- UpLift Nutrition, Inc. (www.upliftnutrition.com) (OTCBB: UPNT) announces ORAC value test score for EpiGaia (www.epigaia.com), its new genetically driven nutrient formula. EpiGaia`s ORAC value weighs in at 16,450 units per daily serving (50 grams) - three times as powerful as pomegranate juice (ORAC of 5,250) and almost two times more powerful than Acai berry juice (ORAC of 9,200). It is over ten times more potent than juice made from Noni berries (ORAC of 856), Goji berries (ORAC of 706), and blueberries (ORAC of 1,600). This makes EpiGaia one of the most powerful antioxidant drink formulas on the market. It was tested by Brunswick Laboratories, an independent lab with a strong reputation for antioxidant analysis. "The ORAC value represents the antioxidant power or free radical protection of a food or drink," says Jessica Rampton, Chief Science Officer at Uplift Nutrition. "Antioxidants protect us against cell-damaging free radicals from our body`s normal inner processes and from pollution or harmful toxins that can lead to early aging and disease." It is commonly recommended by health professionals that everyone consume a high amount of a wide variety of natural food antioxidants on a daily basis (at least 5,000 ORAC units per day). Most nutritional drinks claim high antioxidant levels, but do not test or disclose actual ORAC value results. EpiGaia`s test results are available to the public. EpiGaia not only provides a remarkably high level of antioxidant power, but also offers a synergistic formula of over 40 whole food nutrients. According to Guohua (Howard) Cao, a physician and chemist who developed the ORAC assay, "It may be that combinations of nutrients found in foods have greater protective effects than each nutrient taken alone." Its wide array of nutrient and antioxidant sources is why EpiGaia is an effective holistic formula. EpiGaia is the only ancestral-sourced whole food nutrient formula on the market - derived from mapping the migratory paths found in the human genome. These test results are another indicator of how our genetic ancestry can lead to optimal nutrition for us today. UpLift Nutrition plans to officially begin selling EpiGaia to the public during the 3rd quarter of 2009.
