RevGenetics Offers New Science-Based Telomere Health Supplements for DNA and Chromosome Health

   Astral Fruit, a New Health Supplements Product, Helps Slow and
Repair Some of the Natural Telomere DNA Shortening That Happens as We
Age
MIAMI--(Business Wire)--
RevGenetics announces the release of its latest science-based
telomere health supplements, Astral Fruit. To understand what and how
Astral Fruit works we can look at a recent study entitled: "Proteins
induced by telomere dysfunction and DNA damage represent biomarkers of
human aging and disease."(1)

   This August study is helping define what markers determine human
biological age over chronological age. In this study, it was found
that part of the answer to biological aging is in the end pieces of
human chromosomes, called telomeres.

   According to the study, telomeres are simply needed to protect the
chromosome from coming undone, as well as to maintain the DNA
information that cells need every time they divide. When cells divide,
these telomeres grow short. When they grow short, they come to a point
where they lose their protective function; because of this cells lose
the ability to divide and eventually die. The results of the study
help provide some of the main markers regarding biological age, and
corroborate the hypothesis of DNA damage in human aging.

   What Astral Fruit does is activate the enzyme telomerase by using
a natural herbal extract. Telomerase is a naturally occurring activity
that the immune system normally activates when preparing to combat
infection. However, telomerase also repairs cellular damage in the
cells' chromosomes, repairs DNA and helps lengthen telomere areas to
maintain them in a healthy state.

   "We truly believe this product will help slow and maybe repair
some of the natural telomere shortening that happens as we age, as
well as support cardiovascular and chromosome health.(2) In a couple
of years we will know if Astral Fruit, along with Micronized
Resveratrol, may be considered the DNA fountain of youth," says
Anthony Loera, founder of RevGenetics.

   The new Astral Fruit dietary supplements contain 33 mg of natural
Astragaloside IV per capsule. Astragaloside IV is one of the rarest
herbal extracts in the world. "You will not find this extract for sale
in 99 percent of dietary supplements on the market," Loera says. "You
can search for it and never find it in your favorite store or in your
products of choice. Many Astragalus extracts we have tested contain no
more than 0.3 percent of this natural extract, and most Astragalus
products simply do not have it. Just check the label in your favorite
Astragalus product, and you will not see Astragaloside IV anywhere on
it at all."

   Each bottle of RevGenetics' Astral Fruit contains 30 capsules and
costs $29.99.

   As one of the best providers of Resveratrol, another science-based
supplement, RevGenetics believes that Resveratrol and Astral Fruit
work together for your benefit:

   Resveratrol:

   Simply works to keep you healthy by working on the power plant in
your cells, otherwise known as the mitochondria. We also know from
studies that Resveratrol is beneficial to multiple systems to help
maintain your overall health while you age. Many studies show that
resveratrol helps support health to many parts of the body, while
supporting the energy and vitality of normal health for a longer
period of time as we age.

   Astral Fruit:

   Acts specifically on the chromosomes within your cells, which
contain a person's DNA. The active ingredient in Astral Fruit is known
to activate the enzyme telomerase. By using this natural extract,
RevGenetics believes they can transiently activate telomerase and help
keep chromosomes and DNA in a healthy state, repair some of the damage
done by aging, and maybe increase the amount of times cells can
normally divide.(2)

   In short, Resveratrol works on the overall health of multiple
systems, while Astral Fruit works specifically on DNA repair,
protection and cell division.

   "As the first product of its kind, we believe we are well ahead of
the science curve to specifically help maintain people's current
lifestyle for as long as possible," Loera says.
