Benefits of DXN Fruzim
1) Aid digestion & nutrient absorption
Fruzim tastes mildly sweet, though you may still taste a hint of alcohol, this is the result of natural fermentation. During the long fermentation process (more than 6 months), live bacteria digest the nutrients and elevate the fruit enzyme levels in the solution. The elevated enzymes and live active friendly bacteria are what is beneficial for our body, particularly the digestive system. The fruit enzymes enable the food to be broken down and absorbed into the body more effectively, while probiotics keep the digestive environment healthy.
Moreover, both peach and plum contain sorbitol and isatin. These two components have a mild laxative effect that encourage the secretion of fluids in the bowels and promote efficient flushing of waste. For people with constipation, plum and peach are said to be one of the best natural remedies. The peach and plum in Fruzim are rich sources of carotenoids, especially beta-carotene. It's not only an important antioxidant that can help combat inflammation, but also an important element to build a healthy gut lining. Therefore it can be protective against stomach ulcers, gastritis, Crohn's disease, duodenum issues and inflammatory bowel diseases.
2) Help with blood sugar regulation
Both peach and plum have a glycemic index (GI) of 28 and 35 respectively, they are considered to be low-glycemic. This means that they cause slow rise in blood sugar, which can help the body better manage post-meal blood sugar changes. In addition, studies showed that ingestion of plum stimulates production of a hormone called adiponectin, which may increase insulin sensitivity and therefore can help maintain healthy blood sugar balance.
3) Protective against obesity, metabolic disorders and cardiovascular diseases
Study results show that consumption of peach and plum drink protected against a combination of obesity-induced metabolic disorders including hyperglycemia (high blood sugar), insulin and leptin resistance, dyslipidemia (high blood cholesterol & triglycerides) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL-cholesterol) oxidation. In addition, it has been shown that pro-inflammatory markers of heart tissue decreased and weight gain was prevented after drinking of peach and plum beverage, hence help to reduce risk of artery blockages and further cardiovascular accidents. This is suggested to be contributed by the high polyphenols content in plum and peach. Altogether, these results imply that cardioprotective effects can be achieved by regularly incorporating peach and plum enzyme beverage in daily diet.
4) Promotes brain health and reduces stress
Peaches are often referred to as the ‘Fruit of Calmness’ as peaches are rich sources of magnesium, which helps prevent stress and anxiety in the body and aids in keeping the nervous system calm. Peaches are also good sources of folate and polyphenols that have been shown to decrease neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease. It has also been shown to decrease the risk of macular degeneration.
Besides peaches, the plums are also high at flavonoid content, in particular in anthocyanins. Studies investigated that the regular addition of plum to a cholesterol rich diet may alleviate few of the manifestations of neurodegenerative disorders and cognitive decline.
Furthermore, both peach and plum contain high levels of chlorogenic acid. Chlorogenic acid can help avert the cholinergic system from degenerating and thus prevent various disorders like Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson's disease.
5) Modulate immune system
Peaches and plums are rich in Vitamin C and zinc, which can help the body maintain a strong and healthy immune system. Vitamin C helps combat seasonal viruses and infections that generally weaken your immunity. Both zinc and vitamin C affect collagen healing, and subsequently wound healing. Zinc and vitamin C also have antioxidant properties, which can help fight infections.
Additionally, peaches also has been shown to slow down the process of cellular degeneration and damage as it contains high levels of vitamin C, magnesium and zinc. Also, peaches are rich sources of beta carotene, a nutrient that helps regulate the immune system.
