Sonoran Bloom and Pectin

What does pectin have to do with TriVita’s Sonoran Bloom product line?  The Sonoran Bloom product line Prickly Pear Catuscomes from the Prickly pear cactus which represent about a dozen species of the Opuntia genus (Family Cactaceae) in the North American deserts.  There has been medical interest in the Prickly Pear plant. Some studies have shown that the pectin contained in the Prickly Pear pulp lowers levels of “bad” cholesterol while leaving “good” cholesterol levels unchanged. Another study found that the fibrous pectin in the fruit may lowers diabetics’ need for insulin. Both fruits and pads of the prickly pear cactus are rich in slowly absorbed soluble fibers that help keep blood sugar stable.

Nopalea is the first product in the Sonoran Bloom product line.  The next product that TriVita will be launching will contain the pectin from the Prickly Pear plant.

Here’s some information that has been gathered on Pectin.  After you read this information, I think you’ll see the power of TriVita’ Sonoran Bloom product line and the next product they’ll be releasing in October.

Pectin and Other Dietary Fiber Protects the Body from Toxins
Russian research has shown that heavy metals, such as lead and mercury, are excreted harmlessly and much more efficiently when pectin is included in the diet.  Possible modes of action include a binding of the additives with the fiber, thereby preventing absorption, or perhaps the fiber prevents adverse effects through an action on the digestive process or gut bacteria.

Pectin May Be Used In The Management of Diabetes

There is growing evidence that the regular use of pectin may lessen the severity of diabetes, presumably because pectin absorbs sugars and carbohydrates, releasing them slowly in the intestinal tract. This slow release produces a much slower and steady rise in blood sugar levels. It has been suggested that fiber-depleted diets actually may precipitate diabetes mellitus. One study showed that adding pectin (and guar) to meals significantly reduced glucose and insulin levels in nondiabetic as well as non-insulin-requiring diabetic patients following meals. Insulin-requiring patients experienced a lowering of glucose levels. In a similar study, insulin-requiring diabetic patients experience a continuing effect of lowered plasma glucose when placed on a long term pectin-rich diet. These patients eventually required much less insulin.

Pectin has also been known to:
·    Lower cholesterol significantly.
·    Aid in the elimination of bile acids through the intestinal tract,
·    short circuiting the development of gall stones and colon cancer.

With TriVita’s new product, Nopalea, that has over 100 scientific tests and is proven to reduce inflammation as well as provide other fantastic health benefits, and the launch of a new product near the end of this year containing pectin that will help people with other health issues, TriVita continues to fulfill it’s mission in providing a wellness journey and providing products that make a difference.
