The aristo bar is not just any bar... it is a truly unique ‘wellness’ bar. Why?
For our chewy granola base, we use the purest, all natural and organic ingredients and nothing else. Absolutely no artificial colors,
flavors or preservatives, no high fructose corn syrup, trans fats or any other ‘junk food’. Then we fortified our bars with a powerful
proprietary wellness blend of anti-oxidants, omega-3’s, and plant sterols to boost your health and well-being
What are Omega-3’s and why should I take them?
Omega-3 fatty acids are the ‘good’ kind of fat found in fish, algae and certain plants. They are essential in maintaining healthy
metabolism and cannot be manufactured readily by the body, which is why we must obtain sufficient quantities from food. Over 8,000
human studies have helped document positive health benefits of Omega-3’s as far ranging as improved cellular health, prevention and
management of heart disease, normal development of the brain and eyes, mental well being and mood as well as reduction of
inflammation in joints.
Aristo wellness bars are the first commercially available nutrition bars that utilize innovative food technology to provide the purest of fish
oils in a completely tasteless and odorless encapsulated form. Consumers can now enjoy the goodness of fish without the taste of fish!
Aristo Health uses the “Meg-3” brand of fish oils, one of the purest forms of omega-3 on the market. Aristo fish oil supply comes from
deep ocean waters. Our fish oil is not supplied from farm raised fish. Sate-of-the-art molecular distillation is used to remove PCBs and
dioxins which guarantees purity and potency. Each Aristo bar contains 100 mg of EPA/DHA Omega 3- fatty acids.
What are Plant Sterols and what can they do for me?
Plant sterols are vital components of plant cell membranes and are naturally present in many fruits, vegetables, nuts, and other plant
sources. Their presence in the body is critical for life, since they are elements of steroid hormones, such as testosterone and estrogen,
and are part of cell walls. Clinical studies have shown that daily consumption of plant sterols can help lower LDL cholesterol (the “bad”
cholesterol), total cholesterol, and thus reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. Each Aristo bar contains 0.65 g of natural plant sterols.
What are antioxidants?
Antioxidants are substances that may shield and protect cells from the damage caused by unstable molecules known as free radicals.
Laboratory evidence indicates that antioxidants could help protect cells from free radical damage that may lead to the development of
cancer.
What is a “super fruit”?
Although no official definition exists, a super fruit is generally known for its high content of vitamins and minerals, abundance of
antioxidant nutrients and therefore if consumed regularly could potentially lower the risk of disease.
What are the benefits of Pomegranate?
The pomegranate fruit and juice is a good source of vitamin B, pantothenic acid, potassium, antioxidant polyphenols, and provides 16%
of an adult’s daily requirement of vitamin C. It also has been found that the juice of the pomegranate can be effective in reducing factors
that can cause cardiovascular disease and atherosclerosis, such as LDL oxidation, macrophage oxidative status, and foam cell
formation. Other studies have also concluded that pomegranate can aid in reducing systolic blood pressure, help prevent prostate
cancer and may also have antibacterial and antiviral effects against dental plague.
What does the Goji Berry do?
The delicate berries of the Goji plant have been treasured for centuries by the Himalayan people. It has been long been believed to
enhance immune system function and improve eyesight and circulation. it is nicknamed the 'happy berry' because of the sense of well-
being it is said to induce. The goji berry contains five carotenoids, six essential vitamins, eighteen amino acids, the essential fatty acids
linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid, and numerous phenolic pigments associated with antioxidant properties. These antioxidant
properties include potential benefits against cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases, as well as several vision-related or age-related
diseases.
What is Acai?
Acai (pronounced ah-SIGH-ee) is a small berry that grows on palm trees in the Amazon rainforest of Brazil. It is now recognized to have
one of the highest health promoting antioxidant contents of any fruit and is rich in anthocyanins, amino acids, antioxidants, essential
omega fatty acids, vitamins, iron, protein, and fiber. It has been used for generations in Brazil for its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and
antimutagenic qualities, all of which help in maintaining a healthy cardiovascular system.
