Betalains are a rare and potent class of antioxidants that flourish in the Nopal
cactus fruit. Nopalea harnesses the power of this desert superfruit and its betalains
to bring you scientifically proven health benefits.
What they are
Betalains are the pigments that give the Nopal cactus fruit its vibrant pink color.
But that’s just the beginning. They’re also natural antioxidants—and
they’re only found in a few of the world’s plants.
The Nopal fruit isn’t just included in this small group of special plants,
it actually leads the group by containing one of the highest amounts of betalains
in all of nature.
How they heal
When you drink Nopalea, you take these betalains into your system, where they begin
to restore your vitality on a cellular level. By helping the body reduce the toxins
surrounding your cells and enabling essential nutrients to reach each cell, the
betalains in Nopalea can reduce the inflammation in your body that leads to disease.
Scientific research shows that betalains help to:
- Reduces the risk of blood clots—betalains protect the thin
lining of your blood vessels; this helps reduce the inflammation that makes your
blood sticky and leads to clots.1
- Reduces bad cholesterol—betalains strongly reduce oxidized
LDL cholesterol.2
- Protects cells from toxins—betalains protect many types of
cells, especially brain cells, from toxins known to trigger tumors.3
- Protects your liver—betalains provide significant protection
from toxins that directly affect your liver.4
