Vitals Salvestrol platinum

Vitals Salvestrol platinum
Salvestrol® Platinum is a plant extract that is rich in specific phytonutrients (phytoalexins) that are naturally present in relevant amounts in untreated vegetables and fruits. Phytoalexins are plant defense substances that protect the plant against fungi, viruses, bacteria, UV light, and insects. The plant only produces them in larger quantities when necessary.

Few salvestrols in current diet
The discoverers of salvestrols came to an interesting finding: the content of salvestrols in fresh vegetables, fruits, and herbs, as well as processed foods, varies enormously. Pesticides such as fungicides have drastically reduced the content of salvestrols in common vegetables and fruits. Logically, there is no longer a need for the plant to protect itself by producing phytoalexins. Additionally, plant selection and breeding over the last fifty to sixty years have led to the cultivation of plant varieties that are naturally rich in bitter salvestrols (and therefore less dependent on pesticides) being significantly reduced. People also prefer new varieties of vegetables and fruits that are uniform in size, color, and shape, and tend to overlook older varieties and the less attractive specimens that are richer in salvestrols. Finally, food manufacturers remove salvestrols for the sake of taste, color, and clarity from (refined) foods such as fruit juices and olive oil. The taste becomes sweeter without the need to add sugar. Refined foods generally contain little to no salvestrols. The British research group that discovered salvestrols has concluded that today's diet contains 80 to 90% less salvestrols compared to fifty to a hundred years ago. Only in unprocessed and untreated foods are relevant amounts of salvestrols still found.

Why salvestrols are measured in points
The salvestrol points system is designed to indicate the amount of salvestrols in supplements and food. Different salvestrols have different potencies that are not directly related to the number of milligrams. The scale of the points system is based on a calculation of the amount of salvestrols that occurred in a historical diet over 100 years ago. That amount is equated to 100 points.

Salvestrol® Platinum contains 2000 points per capsule and is therefore very highly dosed. For comparison: Salvestrol® Shield contains a maintenance dosage of 350 salvestrol points per capsule.
