Business Wire
Natrol, Inc. (Nasdaq:NTOL), a premier manufacturer and distributor
of nationally branded nutritional products, announces the national
launch of Natrol� A�a� (ah-sigh-ee) dietary supplement, providing a
daily serving of 1,000 milligrams of this natural antioxidant. A�a�
(Euterpe oleracea) is a fruit that is high in antioxidants.
Antioxidants are naturally occurring chemicals -- found typically
in fruits, vegetables, grain cereals, legumes, nuts, cocoa
products, coffee and teas -- that reduce oxidative damage to cells
and biomolecules, and help defend the body against free radicals
that can accelerate aging, affect cellular integrity and diminish
optimal health*. A�a� is a dark purple berry -- similar to a red
grape in shape, size, and properties -- that grows in the wild
Amazon rainforest. Also referred to as Amazonian palm berry, a�a�
has been used by Brazilians for thousands of years for its rich
nutrients and powerful healing properties. �With twice the
oxygen-radical absorbance capacity, or ORAC, value of blueberries,
a�a� could be considered the berry of choice for good health,� said
Michael Yatcilla, Natrol�s Vice President of Research and
Development. He added, �A�a�s strong antioxidant properties and
other beneficial components make it a great new addition to
Natrol�s vast spectrum of dietary supplements that can enhance
anti-aging, energy, and immunity, as well as general health and
well-being.� Natrol A�a� is offered as a potent 4:1 extract in a
vegetarian capsule, as a convenient alternative to a�a� juices
currently on the market. Each capsule contains 500 milligrams of
A�a� 4:1 fruit extract, with a recommended serving of two capsules
daily with meals*. Natrol A�a� is free of yeast, wheat, milk, egg,
soy, glutens, artificial colors or flavors, and added sugar or
preservatives. Priced at $11.99 per bottle, Natrol A�a� is packaged
in 60-capsule bottles and can be purchased online at
www.ShopNatrol.com as well as from other major e-tailers, and at
national chain, drug, grocery, health food, mass market, and super
center retailers. For more information, interested persons can call
