A new research study examined the effects of XanGo Juice and Eleviv supplements on C-reactive protein, vigor, tension, and metabolic balance compared to placebo. The study found that XanGo Juice and Eleviv resulted in lower levels of C-reactive protein and higher levels of vigor compared to placebo, and also led to reductions in tension and improvements in metabolic balance relative to the placebo group.
2010, 4 Weeks, placebo controlled, double blind study (IRB approved)30 Participants (22 women, 8 men)Daily Dosage: 6 oz XanGo and 2 capsules Eleviv
Sampling blood, urine and saliva
Measuring mood state, CRP levels, hormone levels before and after supplementation
CRP has been shown to be an independent risk factor for heart disease (i.e. that the presence of more CRP indicates an increased risk of future heart problems.) Less CRP is better. (* Ridker, et. al., New England Journal of Medicine, 2000)
XanGo Juice has been shown to decrease CRP by 36% compared to a placebo. (* Udani, et. al., Nutrition Journal, 2009)
A 2010 study testing both XanGo Juice and Eleviv together showed a 59% decrease in CRP compared to a placebo. (* Talbott, 2010, Publication Pending)
Conclusion: Eleviv helps XanGo Juice be more effective
Eleviv has been shown help restore normal vigor levels in healthy stressed individuals. (* Talbott, Journal of the American College of Nutrition, 2007)
A 2010 study testing both Eleviv and XanGo Juice together showed similar results. (* Talbott, 2010, Publication Pending)
Conclusion: Vigor (the primary target measure of Eleviv) remains at the same high level--as expected, unaffected by the addition of Juice.
Eleviv also helps to reduce tension by 27% (* Talbott, MSSE, 2007)
A 2010 study testing both Eleviv and XanGo Juice together showed an even greater 34% reduction in tension. (* Talbott, 2010, Publication Pending)
Conclusion: XanGo Juice helps Eleviv be more effective
Eleviv has been shown help restore normal vigor levels in healthy stressed individuals. (* Talbott, Journal of the American College of Nutrition, 2007)
Metabolic Balance is a ratio of catabolic to anabolic hormones. Imbalance in these hormones (too many catabolic and/or too few anabolic hormones) may lead to adverse psychological and physical effects. (* Bjorntorp, Journal of Internal Medicine, 1995)
Eleviv has been shown to improve the Metabolic Balance ratio by 20%. (* Talbot, FASEB Journal, 2006)
A 2010 study testing both Eleviv and XanGo Juice together using more sophisticated measurement techniques showed over 400% improvement in Metabolic Balance compared to a placebo. (* Talbott, 2010, Publication Pending)
Conclusion: XanGo Juice helps Eleviv be more effective.
