WHAT DO YOUR RESULTS MEAN?

Chinese Lycium fruit, Siberian Pineapple and Cili fruit work synergistically with Gac to provide exponential benefit through strong vascular and cellular protection and rejuvenation in the body.
ANTIOXIDANT MEASUREMENT
HOW TO READ THE LEVELS
RED ZONE – 10K to 19K: Poor = About half the U.S. population scores in this range. These are people who do not eat many fruits or vegetables and/or their nutritional supplementation is not working (is not being absorbed by the body and/or the products do not contain what the label says it does).
ORANGE ZONE – 20K to 29K: Weak = People in this category are typically eating a couple of daily servings of fruits or vegetables or taking some supplemental antioxidants. The nutritional supplements may or may not be working at this level.
YELLOW ZONE – 30K to 39K: Moderate = Healthy diets start here but may not be enough for long-term disease prevention. Typically people here are eating 3 to 5 servings of fruits and/or vegetables per day and may or may not be supplementing.
GREEN ZONE – 40K to 49K: Good = Everyone is advised to strive for this level or higher. LifePak and/or g3 supplementation will allow most people to attain this level or higher.
BLUE ZONE – 50K+: Optimal = Only about 1% of people achieve this level of antioxidant protection in their bodies on their initial scan. A program of eating 9-13 fruits and vegetables and/or supplementation with LifePak or g3 can allow one to reach this level of optimal protection and prevention.
Factors that influence your score . . .
YOUR DIET – Typically, people who eat high amounts of fruits and vegetables have higher scores.
YOUR SUPPLEMENTATION – Typlically, people who consume well formulated antioxidant supplements have higher scores.
YOUR BODY FAT PERCENTAGE – People who are overweight or have a high level of body fat for their height and gender, often have a lower score.
YOUR LIFESTYLE – High levels of oxidative stress and exposure to free radicals, can decrease your score. Tobacco smoke, stress, sunlight, pollution and toxins, are common sources of free radicals.
YOUR GENES – Individual differences in your body's predetermined ability to absorb carotenoids, will impact on your SCS.
