    Fulfilling the Health Promise of the True-Mediterranean Diet!

    The Mediterranean diet starts with a vegetable base, but at its healthiest it is diet with nutrient rich vegetables that contain a specific ratio of phytosterols. Western agriculture has lowered the amount of phytosterols and altered the balance in a way that it no longer delivers a Mediterranean Healthy Diet. Life Assure® is formulated to restore this essential, but missing nutrition.

    Life Assure® includes our patented βeta–Perfect® Phytosterol Complex and is formulated for daily long-term use: A perfect balance of natural,  99.5+% pure, beta-Sitosterol rich, phytosterols that sets a higher, healthier standard. [Hypoallergenic. Non-estrogenic. Contains NO detectable protein or isoflavones.]

    With high ßeta-Sitosterol content, Life Assure's βeta–Perfect® Phytosterol Complex (patent protected) provides the right amount and right balance of phytosterols to bring the Mediterranean to your diet.

    The True-Mediterranean Diet is more than just vegetables

    The Mediterranean diet is also an herb-based diet, providing a wide range of antioxidants that are functional in the cell membranes throughout the body. You see, it is not just the antioxidant capacity (measured as ORAC value) that counts, but the functionality of the antioxidant.

    The Mediterranean diet provides herbal antioxidants that target the cell membrane to keep it healthy and functioning properly. This is key to the body's ability to properly utilize Coenzyme Q10, provide nourishment to each cell, utilize insulin properly, and reproduce and repair properly, among many other normal functions that support a long and healthy life — one of the key benefits of a true-Mediterranean Diet.

    Life Assure's Proprietary Concentrated Herb Blend provides the antioxidants and functionality that works synergistically with our βeta–Perfect® Phytosterol Complex at the cellular level, throughout the body.

    Its Not Just the Oil, Its the Whole Olive as Well!

    What we call The Mediterranean Diet varies from country to country around the area, but there is one constant — Olives and Olive Oil!

    Life Assure® now has Fully Bioactive Olive™ extract. Most supplements provide only a small part of the active components of the Olive Plant. Life Assure® provides the full spectrum of Olive's components, including Oleuropein standardized to a minimum of 20% and Hydroxytyrosol to a minimum of 3%, plus the naturally occurring 10% Β-Sitosterol, 10% Oleanolic Acid, 10% Maslinic Acid, 3% α – Tocopherol, flavonoids (i.e. Rutin), and phenylethanoids (verbascoside which has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antineoplastic properties in addition to numerous wound-healing and neuroprotective properties [22]).

    How Much Olive Do You Need to Eat Mediterranean?

    People on a Western diet are starting to get the olive message. In the last few years, Americans raised their olive oil consumption, from 1 liter to 1.1 liters per person per year.  That is just a starting point. Americans have a long way to go when you realize that consumption in the Mediterranean is typically 10 to 15 times more olive oil than the typical person consumes in the United States.

    Life Assure® at 4 capsules per day, the amount of our Fully Bioactive Olive™ extract supplies these active components at the amount of olive oil typically consumed in the healthiest areas of the Mediterranean.  And remember, the Med-Diet includes a lot of olives as well as the oil, and is also found in Life Assure®.

    Life Assure®: One supplement with a wide range of benefits

    Life Assure® Optimizes the Body's β-Sitosterol-Antioxidant Matrix, and Delivers the Nutritional Foundation you have been missing in your Diet and Other Supplements!

    Healthy cell function is critical to health. Life Assure® is the first comprehensive formulation to directly support the cell's structure, function, and surrounding BioSystem, and to compliment any nutrition program and diet.

    At the cellular level — where all health begins — Life Assure®:

    • Supports Normal Cell Membrane Fluidity, Normal Cell Reproduction & Differentiation*
    • Supports Healthy Intracellular Ca/Mg Ratios


    Every Facet of Health is Based On Healthy Cells,
    And a Healthy Intercellular Environment for them to Thrive In

    In other words, the health of each individual cell sets the stage for the very basis of your good health. Maintaining healthy cells and a healthy intercellular environment allows your cells to function properly, reproduce naturally, perform routine repair functions, eliminate waste efficiently, and receive proper nutrition.

    • Supports healthy serum cholesterol and lipoprotein levels
    • Supports healthy blood pressure and arterial health
    • Supports a healthy inflammation response
    • Supports healthy joints


    Keeping Cells Healthy:


    The Western food supply no longer properly provides the nutrition for cellular health. Life Assure fills this gap, restoring essential cellular nutrition, and in turn addresses a wide range of health areas, especially proper cell differentiation, reproduction and function, insulin19 and liver function, and the urogenital, immune, and cardiovascular systems.*

    The β-Sitosterol-Antioxidant Matrix:
    Phytosterols are an essential part of the Mediterranean Diet.18,20 However, they are never found alone, and are always accompanied by antioxidant (AOX) rich herbs and foods. An optimal balance can be formed by matching proven AOX function with optimally balanced βeta-Perfect® phytosterols. The Life Assure®e formula has been clinically observed for more than 10 years to provide just this optimal balance.*

    Phytosterol Supplementation Requires Co-Antioxidants

    Functionally Complimentary Antioxidants are Vital:
    The lowest rates of cancer, cardiovascular disease, obesity and insulin resistance are found in areas where the diet is high in both beta-Sitosterol and in herb-based antioxidants. This is characteristic of a True Mediterranean Diet. Because β-Sitosterol acts both as an antioxidant and as a promoter of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress,1-5 it should always be used with properly complimentary antioxidants.*

    This natural, biologically optimal balance of β-Sitosterol and membrane active antioxidants is key to Life Assure's® wide-ranging benefits.

    Properly balanced phytosterols are essential:
    Phytosterols are needed for every part – every cell in the body. They even cross the blood-brain barrier. If a cell does not have adequate β-Sit available, it will uptake other sterols which disrupt the cell's cholesterol homeostasis, and in turn hormone production (especially adrenal hormones). Or it will uptake excessive cholesterol. An imbalance between β-Sit and cholesterol in the cell membrane disrupts the membrane's elasticity, increasing rigidity, which is associated with cancer cells, and insulin resistance.1,6-9,21* So choosing a properly balanced phytosterol supplement– Life Assure® – is very important.

    β-Sitosterol/Antioxidant Matrix Synergism:
    The β-Sit/AOX Matrix interaction is complex, requiring multi-ingredient support. In some ways the relationship is as symbiotic as it is synergistic. For example: β-Sitosterol potentiates antioxidant activity and activates other antioxidant responses.10,11 β-Sit and plant-based antioxidants work together to protect cell membranes from lipid peroxidation.12,13,14 In addition, targeted antioxidants support activities of β-Sit: i.e. Astragalus root and β-Sit team up to increase the activities of antioxidant enzymes, including SOD and GSH-Px.14-16*

    This natural pairing of β-Sit and select antioxidants, forming a supportive nutritional matrix, is fundamental to health!

    Key Benefits Especially for Men:
    The early dietary need for proper β-Sit/AOX nutrition shows up in most men as prostate issues. However, most of these men also have Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS), and hormone issues.

    Life Assure® was formulated to address:

    • Comprehensive Prostate Health*
    • Complete Urinary Tract (LUTS) Support*
    • Natural Hormone Balance*
    • Anti-inflammatory*
    • Provides Natural Lycopene in Tomato Oleoresin for superior antioxidant capacity and prostate health*
    All the while providing a wide, whole-body range of general nutritional support!

    Key Benefits Especially for Women:

    • Naturally Reduces Breast Tenderness17*
    • Nourishes & Revitalizes Endometrial and Related Tissue*
    • Natural Hormone Balance & Support*
    • Systemic Benefits for Everyone

    While this formula is especially supportive of both men's and women's reproductive organs and the urinary system tissue and function, the supportive nutrition in Life Assure® functions throughout the body. The ingredients were selected because of their research-demonstrated, broad spectrum of function throughout the body (not based on a high ORAC value, which often does not correlate with function) in addition to complimenting β-Sitosterol.* The following are some examples of the whole-body support provided:

    Life Assure® Supports Cardiovascular Health
    • Supports Immune Function
    • Supports Hormone Balance
    • Supports Energy & Endurance, Ability to Handle Stress
    • Provides Broad Spectrum Adaptogenic Benefits
