WHAT ARE PLANT STEROLS?
Many plants include some substances known as plant sterols, phytochemical compounds found in the fatty tissues of plants. Wheat germ, sesame oil, wheat bran, and Brussels sprouts are rich in plant sterols. When plant sterols are consumed, they compete with cholesterol for absorption in the body. However, it is difficult to consume enough of these foods on a daily basis to derive enough plant sterols to maintain healthy cholesterol levels.
CAN I TAKE MONAVIE PULSE™ WITH MY CHOLESTEROL- LOWER ING MEDICAT ION?
MonaVie™ is unaware of interactions between the ingredients found in MonaVie Pulse and statin medications. However, prescription medications can often lead to adverse effects on the body regardless of your diet. Therefore, as with any prescription medication use or concern, it is wise to discuss your diet with your physician prior to use.
WHAT IS THE SHELF LIFE OF MONAVIE PULSE™ JUICE AND MONAVIE PULSE™ GEL?
If unopened, MonaVie Pulse juice and gel have a shelf life of one year. If MonaVie Pulse juice has been opened, then the shelf life is approximately 15–30 days, as long as the opened bottle is refrigerated. MonaVie Pulse Gel should be consumed in its entirety as soon as it is opened.
What are polyphenols?
Polyphenols are a class of powerful antioxidants that are thought to be responsible for the French Paradox. This is attributed to the amount of polyphenols present in the grapes used to make French wines. MonaVie™ products contain a powerful variety of polyphenols, including anthocyanins.
