About Apex Nutraceuticals

How we started

Apex Nuraceuticals was founded by Mike Khalil, a highly regarded chemist and nutritionist. Over seven years ago, Mike went to Brazil to research the Acai berry. He wanted to personally validate the published information on the Acai berry and to gain additional insights. Mike was able to discriminate between different Acai berries for the highest nutritional value.

Beverage and Food companies started to hear about Mike and questioned him to buy acai for them.  So in 2004, Mike started Acai Zone and brought containers of the Acai puree and Acai powder raw materials from Brazil and sold them in the states. The demand for Mike’s Acai has continued to increase ever since.

Apex Nutra –Super fruits to accommodate the needs of the marketplace

With Mike’s strong affinity for research, Mike formed Apex Nutra a few years ago to formulate “Super Fruits” in forms and formulations that will accommodate the needs of the marketplace. Initially, Apex Nutra developed two raw materials — Acai oil and Acai clarified juice that became high demand in cosmaceuticals and nutraceutical industries in the USA, Canada, Europe and Asia.

Currently Apex Nutra is developing Acai based products that are for weight loss, cognitive enhancement, immune system strengthening, and anti-aging.

The acai based products have been sold in USA, Canada, South America, Europe, Asia and Australia through our distribution network. Apex Nutra, a division of Apex Nuraceuticals, develops and sells Acai based products.

Apex Nuraceuticals – a custom formulator and contract manufacturer of proprietary products for you

Eat Berries To Boost Your Health

 

Berries are a fantastic source of nutrients, as well as being versatile and tasty.

Strawberries are a rich source of vitamin C, an antioxidant vitamin. Antioxidants mop up free radicals, unstable molecules that cause cell hurt. Another valuable micronutrient in strawberries is ellagic acid, a phytochemical (plant-based chemical) that may help fight cancer by blocking cancer cells.

Of all the fruits, raspberries are one of the best sources of soluble fibre. Soluble fibre is a form of non-starch polysaccharides (chain of sugars) that is gel-like in consistency, and helps lower terrible cholesterol (LDL) in the bloodstream. Like strawberries, raspberries are also very high in vitamin C, and are classed as a superfood.

Blackberries  are rare among fruit because they contain significant amounts of vitamin E. This vitamin is an antioxidant, like vitamin C. It also contains a powerful compound called alpha-tocopherol which helps prevent plaque forming in the arteries, thins the blood, and therefore helps prevent heart disease. Vitamin E also helps boost our immune system, as well as promoting healthy skin.

Blueberries are another fantastic source of vitamin C. Rrecent studies have shown that blueberries contain a compound that helps lower terrible cholesterol. A compound in blueberries – pterostilbene – has been identified by scientists in the US who ran tests on rats, as being of possible value in the fight against colon cancer, but further tests are needed to confirm this effect in humans.

Cranberries are rich in vitamin C, as are all berries. A particular role of cranberries, particularly cranberry juice, is their use to treat urinary tract infections and cystitis. Cystitis is a bladder infection, where you feel the urge to urinate but are able to pass only a few painfully burning drops. It can progress to kidney pain if left untreated. Cranberries drunk in concentrated juice form is the most effective remedy. The bacteria that is the main cause of cystitis is E. coli, and cranberry juice is very effective at flushing this bacteria from the urinary tract.

Goji berries have been in the news over the last couple of years as being the latest superfood, eaten by celebrities, and generally heralded as a magic berry. Is it all hype, or are they as fantastic as the claims suggest? These small, round, red berries are grown in China, the Himalayas, and Mongolia. Their taste is not unlike raisins, and they can be eaten raw or in dried form.

It’s right that they’re rich in vitamins (Beta-Carotene, B1, B2, C). Unusually for a fruit, goji berries are a source of essential fatty acids. There is no doubt that this berry is rich in vitamins and minerals, which may help slow the aging process and help prevent certain cancers, but more studies are needed before the most enthusiastic claims are proven.

The Health Benefits of Goji Berries

Goji berries are shriveled red berries that look like red raisins that grow on an evergreen shrub found in temperate and subtropical regions in China, Mongolia and in the Himalayas in Tibet. They are usually found dried, have a slight tangy taste, and belong to the nightshade (Solonaceae) family. Some other Names for Gojji berries include Lycium barbarum, wolfberry, gou qi zi, and Fructus lycii.


Goji Berries have more vitamin C pound for pound than oranges. Scientifically controlled studies using vitamin C for colds show that it can reduce the severity of cold symptoms, acting as a natural antihistamine. The vitamin may be useful for allergy control for the same reason: It may reduce histamine levels. By giving the immune system one of the vital nutrients it needs, extra vitamin C can often shorten the duration of the cold. Being an vital factor in collagen production, vitamin C is useful in wound healing of all types. From cuts and broken bones to burns and recovery from surgical wounds, vitamin C taken orally helps wounds to heal quicker and better. I like using the dried goji berries in a salad for zap flavour and healthier salad.

Goji berries have been used for 6,000 years by herbalists in China, Tibet and India to:

- protect the liver

- help eyesight

- improve sexual function and fertility

- strengthen the legs

- boost immune function

- improve circulation

- promote longevity


Goji berries are also rich in antioxidants, particularly carotenoids such as beta-carotene and zeaxanthin. One of zeaxanthin’s key roles is to protect the retina of the eye by absorbing blue light and acting as an antioxidant. In fact, increased intake of foods containing zeathanthin may decrease the risk of developing age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of vision loss and blindness in people over the age of 65.


In recent years, goji juice has become well loved as a health beverage. Companies marketing goji juice often mention the unsupported claim that a man named Li Qing Yuen consumed goji berries daily and lived to be 252 years ancient. Marketers also list extensive health benefits of goji juice, even though there are few published clinical trials in humans.


In traditional Chinese medicine, goji berries are eaten raw, brewed into a tea, added to Chinese soups, or made into liquid extracts. Goji berries have appeared in snack foods in North America. For example, the health food store Trader Joe’s sells a goji berry trail mix. Whole goji berries are available at Chinese herbal shops. Goji juice can be found in some health food stores, online stores, and through network marketers.

Health Benefits of Goji Berries – Makes Your Healthy

Goji berries grow on an evergreen shrub found in temperate and subtropical regions in China, Mongolia and in the Himalayas in Tibet. They are in the nightshade (Solonaceae) family. Goji berries are usually found dried. They are shriveled red berries that look like red raisins.

Goji berry is a fruit well loved in Tibet and the goji plant also grows in Mongolia and China, and probably in India and Thailand. The goji plant is known in China as wolfberry (Lycium berry). My understanding thus far is that goji berry and wolfberry are the same or similar, it’s just that they grow in different parts of Asia. But, there seems to be confusion and disagreement on this matter. I have spoken to different raw material suppliers, and some say goji berry and wolfberry are the same fruit with different names, while others claim goji berry and wolfberry are slightly different since they grow in different parts of Asia.

Goji berries, also called wolfberries, have been grown in the Himalayan valley for hundreds of years. Traditional Chinese folk medicine uses them to cure a variety of ailments. Goji berries have also long been used in various Asian dishes as an ingredient or a garnish. Goji berry bushes grow to be one to three meters high . Because the berries are very delicate when on the plant, they cannot be picked by hand. Instead they are gently shaken from the vine.

Goji comes in many forms these days, including juice, goji bars, goji cream and goji capsules. An brilliant tea can be made from goji leaves and goji flowers are decorative and gorgeous. Through the internet or in stores, you can find the best goji products for you. Most people prefer to drink goji juice to get the benefits of goji in a tasty and a convenient form.

But apparently goji is more than just a refreshing beverage. According to one website it is the “number one-rated, third party tested and validated, patent-pending, single focus functional health tonic designed to deliver you incredible health benefits.” The very name of the website, www.beyoungnow.com, gives some thought of the extravagant benefits they are talking about.

Look & Feel Younger— Goji stimulates the release by the pituitary gland of human growth hormone (hGH), the youth hormone. The benefits of hGH are extensive and include reduction of body stout, better sleep, improved memory, accelerated healing, restored libido and a more youthful appearance.

Among Goji berry’s beneficial compounds is a category called phytochemicals. Flavonoids belong to this category of nutrients that are extremely high in antioxidants including quercetin, anthocyanadins and antocyanins. Bioflavonoids are essential to the absorption and utilization of other nutrients, especially vitamin C.

Get Better Sleep— Goji has been historically used in Asia for the natural treatment of insomnia. In several medical study groups with elderly people, nearly all patients taking goji reported better quality of sleep.

Goji berries nutrition benefits add a double bonus to goji berries diabetes control benefits and make goji berries diabetes control far superior to diabetes control through medications which can have perilous side effects and lack all of the Tibetan goji berries nutrition benefits such as goji berries antioxidants and vitamins, fiber and the like.

Improvement of the quality of sleep. Goji has long been used throughout Asia by people with occasional sleep disturbance. In several medical study groups with elderly people, nearly all individuals taking Goji Berries reported better quality of sleep.
