The equivalent of 1000 pounds of blueberries in each capsule

New York City, N.Y, August 16, 2011 ? PteroActiv, a unique new supplement by Biotivia contains the pterostilbene of over 1,000 pounds of fresh organic blueberries. Biotivia, the innovative nutraceutical manufacturer who introduced the first high-potency pterostilbene supplement about one year ago has pioneered a new extraction technology which allows for the thousand percent increase in the potency of PteroActiv versus any other pterostilbene supplement offered in either the US or Europe.

Pterostilbene has been shown to have remarkable cognitive, heart health, and cholesterol management benefits in a number of studies, including those conducted under the auspices of the US Department of Agriculture.

PteroActiv was designed to be utilized both by both medical researchers needing a highly purified but economical source of this molecule for human clinical trials, and informed consumers interested in realizing the potential health effects of this remarkable molecule.

Resveratrol grabbed the attention of the medical community and the international scientific press after the Dr. Sinclair?s Harvard Medical School study was published in the Journal Nature in 2006. Its health properties have been substantiated by hundreds of medical researchers whose studies have been published in over 4,500 peer-reviewed animal, in vitro, and human clinical trials and studies. Imperial College of London has been awarded a patent for resveratrol as a treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, a debilitating side effect of smoking and working in highly polluted industrial environments.

Pterostilbene is closely related to resveratrol, and complements resveratrol by strongly activating various genes, proteins, and signaling pathways, that resveratrol only weakly activates or does not affect at all, to provide more comprehensive range of health and fitness benefits than either Pterostilbene or Resveratrol alone. Biotivia scientists created the first high-potency resveratrol supplement, Bioforte, over six years ago and its Transmax supplement has been used in virtually all of the human clinical trials by institutions such as Albert Einstein Medical College, Harvard Medical School, Northumbria University of the UK, Torino University Medical School of Italy, Ottawa Hospital and many other institutions worldwide.

The largest ever long term human clinical trial of resveratrol will begin soon in Denmark using Transmax TR and Fluxome resveratrol in an investigation of the molecule?s ability to protect against the effects of diabetes and a number of other diseases and health conditions associated with aging in humans.

Biotivia will soon announce a large scale human clinical trial of PteroActiv Pterostilbene. This study will be undertaken by a large European medical school, and will investigate the ability of Pterostilbene to stop or possibly even reverse the progress of a common but fatal organ disease for which there exists no current pharmaceutical treatment. Transmax resveratrol will also be used in place of PteroActiv with one half of the patients to compare the relative effectiveness of the two compounds.Biotivia was founded in 1992. The company develops and manufacturers advanced nutraceutical formulations and purified natural compounds for use by consumers, researchers, and functional foods producers in the US, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.
