Cancer Prevention

In recent years, the incidence of malignant tumors has been gradually increasing, so how to prevent cancer has become an important issue.

Many studies in recent years have confirmed the relationship between phytochemicals and cancer prevention. 

For example, a 2007 clinical study in the United States showed that women who consumed 3 grams of isoflavones daily had a 44% lower risk of ovarian cancer.

Phytochemicals, also known as phytonutrients, are chemical components found in plant-based foods. 

Unlike vitamins and minerals, they include polyphenols, indoles, flavonoids, allium compounds, lycopene, saponins, coumarins, isothiocyanates, and more.

Phytochemicals in fruits and vegetables have also been shown to have anticancer effects, as they can enhance the immune system, induce malignant cells to become benign, promote cancer cell apoptosis, have antioxidant effects, and inhibit cancer cell signaling to achieve the effect of inhibiting cancer cell growth.

In addition to 12 essential vitamins and 10 essential minerals, Amway Nutrilite Double X contains phytonutrients from 22 different plant concentrates from all 5 colour groups: green, white, yellow, red and purple. 

Each colour group delivers valuable nutrients including acerola cherry, alfalfa, citrus bioflavonoids, oregano, broccoli, apple, asparagus, cranberry, grape, kale, marigold, tomato, pomegranate, prune, rosemary, wild blueberry and sage.

The exclusive NUTRILITE concentrate process preserves these nutrients, keeping the nutritional value and essential phytonutrients.

It is the result of more than 90 years of continual research and investment in the study of plant nutrients to support your optimal health.
