We know that they’re good for us because they’re loaded with Vitamin C, fiber and a bunch of other stuff like antioxidants and enzymes.
What we don’t know is why a whole orange is better for us than a handful of vitamins & antioxidants.
And it’s that question that got a bunch of researchers at BYU all excited to find out why eating oranges protects our cardio-vascular system from free radicals and a bunch of other junk flowing through our veins.
So, here’s what they did.
The Research
Operating under the assumption that an orange is more than just a collection of Vitamin C and a bunch of antioxidants, the researchers took a closer look at the polyphenol antioxidants found in a navel orange.
They looked at how these antioxidants worked alone and in combinations to create a “healthy” effect.
Their research identified three different combinations of 2 compounds and 5 combinations of 3 compounds to be synergistic.
In particular, the combination of the phenolic compounds hesperidin and naringenin appeared to provide the strongest antioxidant effect (as measured by ORAC)
Conclusion(s)
An orange is much more than the sum of it’s parts
The antioxidants found in an orange work together to increase their collective “healthy” effect
Scientists are going to examine these combinations
Supplement companies & pharmaceutical companies are going to market these combinations
And 10 years from now, researchers are going to identify new compounds in oranges that they had never dreamed of…and those compounds will be studied and identified and produced as nutritional supplements and sold for a large profit.

Opportunity knocking. Do you hear the knock?
"If you only had one shot… one opportunity to seize everything you’ve ever wanted…. one moment… Would you capture it? Or just let it slip away?” Eminem
Opportunity is defined as a good position, chance, or prospect, as for advancement or success. It is defined this way so as not to confuse it with another term… gift. The problem with most people is that they misuse these two terms and try to superimpose them to suit their applicable situation. Opportunity looks like a gift, sounds like it’s free, and can be both but without the work involved to progess forward, opportunity is nothing more than another word…. disappointment.

Phentermine debate:
Once in a while there is someone who is introduced to my product and says "I love your product but do you know where I can get phentermine." of course I do! but listen to me ... zija is an all natural product. It's not going to cause heart palpitations, osteoporosis, or a heart murmur.
Thermogenesis

Thermogenic agents are designed to counteract your body’s fat storage mechanisms by causing your body to maintain a higher metabolic rate-turning your internal thermostat up to burn fat faster. The thermogenic process can be jump-started by a number of factors including cold, exercise, food and dietary and weight management supplements.
