Barrington Nutritionals (New York City) is now distributing red sorghum extract from RedLeaf Biologics (Lexington, KY). Redleaf is a patented sorghum bioflavanoid complex standardized to no less than 20% polyphenols, including 3-deoxyanthocyanidins.
The companies call the 3-deoxyanthocyanidins in RedLeaf “very rare in nature but found in abundance in RedLeaf’s patented variety of red sorghum which was discovered, sustainably grown, and extracted in Kentucky.”
The ingredient functions as an antioxidant with numerous benefits. As the companies explain, “This group of patented polyphenols drives a powerful upregulation of the cellular Antioxidant Response Element (Nrf2/ARE) and the downregulation of NFKB, [which] enables this ingredient to address oxidative stress at a cellular level. Due to this bioactive mechanism, RedLeaf addresses a variety of needs in the sports formula, gut health, cognition, and beauty-from-within sectors.”
Both companies will be exhibitors at the upcoming SupplySide West trade show, taking place October 31 to November 4, 2022, in Las Vegas: Barrington Nutritionals (Booth #3644) and RedLeaf Biologics (Booth #2528).
