The original, highly specialized, patented polyphenol complex invented by Dr. Jack Masquelier, now known as Flavay™, works in various different ways to promote better health:
- Flavay™ is a powerfully effective antioxidant that recycles other antioxidants in the body after they have quenched corrosive free radicals which affect many tissues and conditions including cognitive impairment and premature aging.
- Flavay™ helps to regulate the good-bad free radical, nitric oxide, which is essential for: normal blood circulation, coordinating activity between the immune system and the brain, and modulating communication between brain cells—and is thereby deeply involved in concentration, learning and memory.
- Flavay™ inhibits the release and synthesis of histamine, a key factor in the promotion of inflammation; reactions associated with conditions like vascular diseases, allergies, and arthritis.
- Flavay™ strengthens and rebuilds collagen proteins, improving skin and blood vessel health.
Flavay™ is the product—used in the actual experiments—by which Dr. Jack Masquelier established and patented the "radical scavenger effect" (U.S. Patent No. 4,698,360). This incredible compound from France has produced stunning health results across Europe for more than 50 years. Flavay™ is the product—used in the actual experiments—by
