The Proof is Now in the Thai-Go™!

Evidence from data proves recommended doses are able to effectively quench various forms of free radicals. Thai-Go™ is now tested by Brunswick Labs for ORAC and HORAC.

What is the purpose of this certification?
This label certifies that Thai-Go has had a full range of antioxidant analysis by the foremost third party testing lab in the US. This certifies and verifies product quality. Brunswick Laboratories has agreed that we can state on the Thai-Go™ label: "This certification verifies exceptional product quality." This assures our customers and serves notice to our competitors that we have a premier product.

*Brunswick Labs measures ORAC, HORAC, Phenols, Xanthones, and Bioflavonoids for Thai-Go™.

What is the significance of this certification?
Any company can send in a few bottles of their mangosteen product to a third party such as Brunswick--bottles of their product that they have carefully prepared for that test--and frankly, bottles that are NOT representative of their product day in and day out.

When it is your health on the line, you want to know that each and every bottle you take is consistently potent, high-quality, and has it in the high ORAC, HORAC, xanthones, phenols, and bioflavonoids that you expect in such a health product. Brunswick Laboratories certification testifies of such quality.

What is the significance of ORAC and HORAC?
Evidence from data proves recommended doses are able to effectively quench various forms of free radicals. Thai-Go is now tested by Brunswick Labs for ORAC and HORAC.

There are many different types oxygen free radicals formed in the body as a result of natural chemical reactions necessary for life. These oxygen free radicals are very reactive and can damage most cell structures to cause cancer, heart disease, and other age-related diseases.

These reactive oxygen species (ROS) include peroxyl radicals, hydroxyl radicals, superoxide ions, and singlet oxygen. Of these, the peroxyl radicals (ROO) are most abundant, and they are measured by ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity). Hydroxyl radicals (OH) actually are more damaging to the body, and they are measured by HORAC (Hydroxyl Radical Averting Capacity) ⁽¹⁾.

As mentioned earlier, peroxyl radicals and hydroxyl radicals will damage cellular structures. Antioxidants, such as those in Thai-Go, are known as “free radical scavengers.” They are compounds that either react with and neutralize free radicals or reduce their formation. ORAC and HORAC are test systems to determine the relative amounts and effectiveness of antioxidants to counteract the oxygen free radicals formed in the body.

Recent test results from Brunswick Laboratories demonstrate Thai-Go to have very high ORAC: 57,623 µmole TE/L (trolox equivalents/liter), and a very high HORAC: 11,078 µmole CAE/L (caffeic acid equivalents/liter).

These data provide evidence that Thai-Go offers powerful antioxidant protection to the body against both the abundant peroxyl radicals and the very damaging hydroxyl radicals. This additional testing was conducted by NSP to provide further evidence to our customers that Thai-Go is rightfully positioned as the premier antioxidant nutritional drink.
