What are the ingredients in Vivix?

Vivix contains both resveratrol and a proprietary phytonutrient blend. This phytonutrient blend harnesses the powerful antioxidant properties of rare muscadine grapes and has been shown to be 10X more powerful than resveratrol alone in slowing a key mechanism of cellular aging.

Why did Shaklee choose the muscadine grape? Why is it unique?
Muscadine grapes are one of nature’s rarest, most potent grapes, with a unique polyphenol profile that offers a number of health benefits. Unlike other grapes, muscadine grapes boast superior concentrations of ellagitannins and ellagic acid that, when combined with other muscadine grape polyphenols, yield immense antioxidant power.

Muscadine grapes also can thrive in harsh environments; their unique phenolic profile provides extra protection against bacteria, fungus, yeast, drought, excess moisture, and temperature extremes, while other grapes are much more fragile in these environments.

Normal grapes have 19 pairs of chromosomes. Muscadines have 20 pairs. This changes and intensifies the phytochemical makeup.

Muscadines have 6 Times the Resveratrol content of regular red grapes
Muscadine is the only grape to contain Ellagic Acid
Muscadines have more dietary fiber than rice or oat bran
Muscadine is high in Quercetin — a very healthy flavonoid
The antioxidant level in muscadine is 40x higher than in standard red grapes
Muscadine grapes have about 6X more Resveratrol than standard grapes.

Where is the muscadine grape grown?
Muscadine (Vitis rotundifolia) grapes are grown throughout the South Eastern United States Where the climate and weather conditions can be harsh and unpredictable. It is because the climate is so difficult, the Muscadine has evolved into a grape that tends to be larger, stronger and have thicker skins than traditional grapes. Normal grapes have 19 pairs of chromosomes. Muscadines actually have an extra pair. They have 20.
