Fortifeye Performance Whey Super Protein Vanilla Bottle Label

Fortifeye has re formulated their Vanilla Super Protein for 2020 with a  revised new creamy delicious vanilla flavor and now instatized using non gmo sunflower lecithin.  

Increasing number of dairy cows are fed genetically modified grains in feed lots enhanced with hormones and antibiotics to increase milk production. They are also are raised in a confined area. Fortifeye Super Protein is derived from year round grass fed free range New Zealand dairy cows. This protein is free from pesticides, hormones and antibiotics. New Zealand Grass fed cows produce some of the highest quality milk, which contributes to our New Zealand whey protein concentrate.

Fortifeye Vitamins researched the best possible dairy cows to use when developing Fortifeye Super Protein, a non denatured whey protein concentrate. It was concluded that year round grass fed New Zealand dairy cows met that goal. Fortifeye Super Protein is a non denatured whey protein concentrate from grass-fed New Zealand cows. This protein has an all organic flavor system, making both the chocolate and vanilla flavors delicious and ready to mix with any liquid.

An undenatured or non denatured whey protein concentrate from grass-fed New Zealand cows is significantly different from most traditional non pasture raised or partial pastured whey protein concentrates. Grass fed cows will typically have 60% or higher omega 3 content in their milk versus non grass-fed cows milk. This higher content is crucial since the typical diet is pro inflammatory and already too high in omega 6. Drinking a milk protein higher in omega 3 will aid in the nutritional support of your body. Drink to your health.

Grass fed pasture raised cows are much higher in a very important fat called conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). CLA has some enormous wellness stimulating properties and positive health benefits. Grass fed pasture raised cows have up to 500% more CLA than non grass-fed cows. 

A bioactive non denatured whey protein concentrate like Fortifeye Super Protein is one of the best ways to stimulate the master antioxidant and detoxifier in the body called Glutathione. Non denatured means the protein has not been heated or altered.

Fortifeye uses milk that has been pasteurized for only 15 seconds at 72 degrees celcius . Almost every protein powder you purchase today has been from cows raised in a feed lot fed GMO grains and then pasteurized for over a half hr at temperatures over 200 degrees. This is an inexpensive process that denatures the protein reducing the immunological activity of the protein. Fortifeye is one of a select group of companies that does not alter that natural immune boosting properties thru harsh heat. The key amino acid, cysteine, combines with glutamic acid and glycine to make glutathione. Glutathione levels continuously decline as we age and Glutathione deficiencies are linked to many health problems. Replenishing glutathione levels by consuming a whey protein concentrate is recommended by anti aging doctors all over the world.

Lactoferrin, another key immune boosting component of whey protein, is a globular glycoprotein that has many potential health benefits. New research indicates that lactoferrin may have many positive health benefits. Other relatively new research indicates people with dry eyes may have lower than normal levels of lactoferrin in their tears. Dry eye treatment with lactoferrin? The future of natural dry eye treatment may involve supplementing with a good grass fed whey protein concentrate.

Whey Protein is the fastest, most bioactive form of protein known to man. Whey protein has the highest biological value (BV) of all food grade proteins at a BV of 104. Whey Protein is high in a specific amino acid called leucine, the “Mack Daddy ” amino acid for stimulating muscle synthesis. Whey protein is far superior to casein, soy or any other protein for nutritional support of muscle synthesis.

You can clearly see that the addition of a good non denatured grass fed whey protein concentrate may be beneficial to your overall health and help to promote a healthy strong body. Fortifeye Super Protein, combined with organic fruits and veggies, in a smoothie is a great way to start the morning. To maximize your workouts try a pre-workout drink using Fortifeye Super Protein blended with A2 cows milk, coconut milk or cashew milk, blue berries and a banana and a post recovery workout drink within 30 minutes of training would benefit from a scoop of Fortifeye Super Protein and a wedge or watermelon and some a2 chocolate milk. The ultimate post recovery drink would be one scoop of Fortifeye Super Protein and one scoop of the all new Fortifeye Fit in 10 oz of water in a shaker or quickly blended.

Fortifeye Vanilla Super Protein is the most popular of the Fortifeye proteins due to its delicious creamy vanilla flavor that can be combined with just about anything.

Fortifeye Fit a pre workout and post workout supplement

The newest addition to the Fortifeye Family. Fortifeye Fit is available as a pre and post recovery drink. Fortifeye Fit is the fist product in the Fortifeye Performance line of quality products to come.

Fortifeye Fit is a carefully thought out doctor developed  new generation sports nutrition supplement that was developed to be used as both a pre-workout and post-workout supplement. This powder was developed using all of the highest quality ingredients with no dyes, artificial flavors, artificial sweeteners or carrageenan. All of the latest sports nutrition science was taken into consideration in the development of this formula to enhance muscle synthesis, strength and endurance .  The Ten evidence based nutrients that are used in this formula are the highest quality available and are backed by good clinical studies.  This supplement uses some of the most advanced nutrients to support mitochondrial health and enhance the production of clean energy called  ATP.  No stimulants or other nutrients that can cause rapid or irregular heart beat or the “jitters” is used in Fortifeye Fit.  The most advanced performance carbohydrate called Cluster Dextrin (Highly Branched Cyclic Dextrin) is used to provide a sustained energy source before , during  and after exercise. This carbohydrate replenishes muscle glycogen very quickly and has very rapid gastric emptying so it is easy on the stomach.   Fortifeye uses one of the most advanced collagen peptides (Solugel) to give nutritional support to the skin, tendons, ligaments and joints. The ratios of these nutrients used are the exact amounts used in clinical studies that support its effectiveness. Many people using Fortifeye Fit report improved strength , muscle tone, energy, endurance and have less pain in their joints. An added bonus is many report significant improvement in skin, hair and nail health (less wrinkles, better hydration and texture to the skin) Fortifeye Fit  was developed to give athletes a safe alternative to enhance their workouts and recover much faster through proper nutritional support.   Many world class professional and amateur athletes are now including  Fortifeye Fit and many of the other Fortifeye Performance Nutrition supplements in their training protocol.  Athletes of today are very educated and understand the importance of high quality evidence based all natural and clean supplements.  One of the fastest growing groups taking Fortifeye Fit is the aging population. Many people over 60 are concerned about a condition called Sarcopenia. This is a condition that is characterized by the loss of muscle mass and strength as we age. Fortifeye Fit has multiple nutrients that have been studied and are being studied for Sarcopenia. We recommend one scoop half hr prior to working out and one scoop right after working out. You can mix or shake it with water or any beverage of choice. For maximum benefits we also recommend adding one scoop of Fortifeye Super Protein or Fortifeye Grass Fed  Whey Protein Isolate to the post workout drink.  Isn’t it time you join the Fit Revolution ?   Learn more »

This product is amazing!

The first time I tried Fortifeye Fit, after Dr. Lange had introduced it, I had a surge of energy that bursted out of my body right after I took it. To test it, I stopped using after a week. My energy was not the same. I went back and tried it again 5 minutes before I started my afternoon workout session. Wow, That was amazing. My energy came back the same. I was able to lift more weights without any fatigue or muscles weaknesses. This product is amazing. I am going to keep on taking it from now on. I would gladly recommend it to anyone who wants to build muscles or needs a boost at the gym. I shared it with a few of my friends who are as amazed as I was.

Fortifeye Fit Gives Me Energy and Tastes Good

I just wanted to let you know how much I like the Fortifeye fit that you have created. I prefer the strawberry watermelon flavor but the fruit punch is also good. It gives me energy and tastes good without being too sweet and is easy to mix up and use for both pre-and post workout and it is less containers to carry to the gym. I would definitely recommend it to my friends and family.

Thank you doc!

 Fortifeye Vitamins researches and develops new Grass Fed Whey Protein Isolate.

Fortifeye Grass Fed Whey Isolate is a non denatured whey protein isolate  under the Fortifeye Performance Nutrition label . It is one of the only unflavored, unbleached, undenatured, grass fed, American Cow, micro filtered, cold pasteurized whey protein isolates available. The process of purification, concentration and pasteurization keeps the delicate proteins and amino acids in tact and very bioavailable. The milk has gone thru a cold pasteurization process using 72 degrees Celsius for only 15 seconds this keeps the protein bioavailability and immune boosting properties at the highest level possible. Ultra and micro filtration is used to eliminate fat, cholesterol, casein and lactose without denaturing the protein. Most protein isolates you buy today are from cows fed growth hormone, GMO grain, antibiotics and then pasteurized under high heat for extended periods of time and then acid is used that further denature the protein. Fortifeye Grass Fed Whey Isolate uses the highest quality milk and the very latest most natural technology in the formulation process that preserves the bio availability of the proteins. This protein isolate mixes very easily and completely in a shaker cup and there is no need to use a blender.  Fortifeye Grass Fed Whey protein can be used alone or for maximum nutritional support for muscle synthesis should be added to Fortifeye Fit as The ultimate muscle fuel. This protein has zero carbohydrates and zero sugar so perfect for keto or low carb diets!

EPA and Treatment of Major Depressive Disease

Peet,Malcolm; Stokes, Caroline
Omega-3 fatty acids in the treatment of psychiatric disorders
Drugs 2005;65:1051-1059
The importance of omega-3 fatty acids for physical health is now well recognised and there is increasing evidence that omega-3 fatty acids may also be important to mental health. The two main omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) have important biological functions in the CNS. DHA is a major structural component of neuronal membranes, and changing the fatty acid composition of neuronal membranes leads to functional changes in the activity of receptors and other proteins embedded in the membrane phospholipid. EPA has important physiological functions that can affect neuronal activity. Epidemiological studies indicate an association between depression and low dietary intake of omega-3 fatty acids, and biochemical studies have shown reduced levels of omega-3 fatty acids in red blood cell membranes in both depressive and schizophrenic patients.Five of six double-blind, placebo-controlled trials in schizophrenia, and four of six such trials in depression, have reported therapeutic benefit from omega-3 fatty acids in either the primary or secondary statistical analysis, particularly when EPA is added on to existing psychotropic medication. Individual clinical trials have suggested benefits of EPA treatment in borderline personality disorder and of combined omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acid treatment for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. The evidence to date supports the adjunctive use of omega-3 fatty acids in the management of treatment unresponsive depression and schizophrenia. As these conditions are associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease and diabetes mellitus, omega- 3 fatty acids should also benefit the physical state of these patients. However, as the clinical research evidence is preliminary, large, and definitive randomised controlled trials similar to those required for the licensing of any new pharmacological treatment are needed

DRY EYE SYNDROME DES

People with DES complains most frequently of a scratchy or foreign body sensation. Redness, pain, itching, inability to produce tears, light sensitivity, and blurred vision with difficulty driving after dark are common symptoms. The symptoms are located mainly to the pain sensitive cornea.

Recent animal experiments have demonstrated that DES is not exclusively a disease located to the cornea since inflammatory cells and immunological chemical mediators were found in the tear fluid. Since cornea does not contain tissue engaged in an inflammatory process the lacrimal gland and the conjunctiva have to participate in the syndrome even though symptoms relate to cornea.

A number of controlled clinical studies have been published where these fatty acids have been given in a placebo-controlled design. Rahul Bhargava and colleagues (1) included 264 DES subjects given 1g daily of marine omega3 fatty acids mainly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and compared effects on symptoms, tear production and corneal cell integrity. A large control group of 254 individuals were given matching placebo. After three months, there was a significant reduction in symptom score in the omega3 group along with improvement in tear production and corneal cell integrity. Kawatita K et al (2) included 27 DES patients in a study providing half of the group with a product containing 1.3g of EPA and 0,5 g of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) daily for 12 weeks. Symptoms were significantly reduced in the intervention group.

Kangari H and collaborators included sixty-four patients with dry eye symptoms (3). The subjects were randomized into two groups: 33 persons in the treatment group given 2 capsules of omega-3 (each containing 180 mg EPA and 120 mg DHA and 31 persons in the placebo group. The tear break-up time (TBUT), Schirmer’s score, and Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) were measured 1 month after the intervention. Repeated-measures analysis of variance showed that improvements in TBUT, OSDI, and Schirmer’s scores were significantly better in the treatment group than in the placebo group. The changes in the treatment and placebo groups were 71% and 3.3% for TBUT (P<0.001), 26% and 4% (P=0.004) for dry eye symptoms, and 22.3% and 5.1% for Schirmer’s score (P=0.033), respectively. In conclusion, his study demonstrated that omega-3 fatty acids for 30 days was associated with a decrease in the rate of tear evaporation, an improvement in dry eye symptoms, and an increase in tear secretion.

In another study by Bhargava R and Kumar P 496 contact lens carriers with DES were randomly allocated to treatment with marine omega3 fatty acids (0.6g daily) or placebo for six months (4). The study demonstrated a significant improvement in dry eye symptoms and an increase in tear secretion in the omega3 treated group. The Bhargava group included 428 computer workers with DES in another study (5). Half the group were given the same dose of omega3 fatty acids as in study 7. The rest were provided with matching placebo capsules and followed for three months. There was a significant improvement in symptoms followed by increased tear production in the active treatment group. A recent study by Bhargava R and collaborators evaluated the effect of higher omega 3 fatty acid dose than in their previous studies namely 2,400 mg/day for 45 days on dry eye symptoms, tear production, stability, and conjunctival cytology in young and middle-aged visual display terminal (VDT) users (6). It was a randomized, double-blind, interventional study where 256 VDT users were randomized to receive omega-3 while 266 subjects received matching placebo capsules. Patients were evaluated at baseline, 30 days, and 45 days. The primary outcome measure was an improvement in dry eye symptoms. Secondary outcome measures were improvement in the Nelson grade on conjunctival impression cytology, Schirmer test values, and tear film breakup time (TBUT). In the omega3 group, the mean symptom score differed significantly between active treatment and placebo (P<0.005) as did the TBUT and Nelson grade evaluation. Schirmer test values did not differ significantly after adjustment for multiple comparisons. Consumption of 2,400 mg/day of O3FA supplement improved symptoms, tear stability, and conjunctival cytology but not tear production in symptomatic VDT users.

In a meta-analysis of published studies using a randomized, placebo-controlled design, Liu A and Yi J included a total of 790 participants in seven independent studies published between 2007 and 2013 (8). The authors concluded that based on the experience from these studies Omega3 fatty acid seemed to offer an effective therapy for DES.

Fortifeye black current oil bottle

30 Softgels

Black Currant oil is very high in an essential fatty acid called GLA ( gamma-linolenic acid).  GLA is very difficult to get in the typical diet.

Black Currant oil is also high in Alpha Linolenic Acid (ALA)  a plant based omega 3. Fortifeye Black Currant Oil has 140mg of GLA in each gel cap!

There is science based evidence that GLA a derivative of Omega 6 has potential positive benefits for the dry eye patient.  Doctors have used 140mg of GLA combined with Omega 3 with great success in dry eye clinics.
