FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
The same substance that keeps bee colonies disease-free and buzzing with good health is now a primary ingredient in the latest addition to the Essential Formulas Incorporated (EFI) supplement line. Providing and enhancing all the whole-health benefits of bee propolis, Dr. Ohhira’s Propolis PLUS draws its synergistic strength from a combination of highly potent Brazilian green propolis, a substance that protects beehives from pathogens and mold; astaxanthin extracted from Haematococcus seaweed; and EFI’s award-winning Dr. Ohhira’s probiotic extract. The result from adding the propolis extract is comprehensive anti-inflammatory, immune system, and digestive support.
Finally gaining the attention it deserves in the natural health community, bee propolis is now recognized as an impressive natural source of antioxidant, antibacterial, and whole nutrition. Propolis acts as an antimicrobial and antioxidant protective barrier in beehives, and it conveys the same protective benefits when taken as a nutritional supplement. The potency of the propolis extract is highly dependent on the region from which it comes. The Minas Gerais green propolis in EFI’s product contains remarkably high cinnamic acid derivatives (i.e., Artepillin C) and is, consequently, more potent than any other known source.
“We all know good health is about prevention rather than crisis management,” said EFI’s Executive Vice President, William Schoor. “This is one of those products that cares for the body in that fashion, empowering it to stay healthy.” Schoor co-founded EFI in 2000 specifically to bring the original Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics to the United States. The new sister product, Propolis PLUS, boasts an impressive list of product ingredients selected for whole-health support.
The addition of the Brazilian green propolis makes for a unique ingredient combination in Dr. Ohhira’s Propolis PLUS provides protective and strengthening benefits throughout the body. Beyond the obvious immune and digestive system boost, the product also contains Vitamin E for dermal health and cell health, flax oil as a source of Omega-3 fatty acids, and all the side benefits of probiotics, including the ability to detoxify harmful substances and make some needed vitamins. Additionally, the astaxanthin in Dr. Ohhira’s Propolis PLUS can change itself into vitamin A, depending on the body’s needs.
Dr. Ohhira’s Propolis PLUS will be available for shipment after September 1, 2009.
