"Certainly no area in the world has the reputation for long-lived people to match that of
the Caucasus..."
-- world renowned physician Alexander Leaf
(Professor Emeritus, Department of Medicine, Harvard University)
The longevity of the people of the Caucasus can be attributed,
in part, to both the consumption of the healthy foods that are available in the region and an ancient tradition
of knowing how to utilize unique local herbs and plant-derived medicinal compounds to help improve and maintain their
general health. **
Kura Natural Biologically Active Products
Kura Natural has partnered with the leading Georgian scientific institutes, practitioners of natural medicine
and raw materials manufacturers
to reproduce a series of traditional dietary supplements and nutraceutical preparations that have been used in the Caucasus for many generations.
All of the ingredients in our products are produced exclusively in Georgia.
Our antioxidant health products include extracts of plants that are unique to the Caucasus region.
The Red Saperavi grape seed is rich in
procyanidins and the deep red skin of this grape, which is found only in Georgia, is known for
its extremely high concentrations of resveratrol.
The Caucasian blueberry fruit (Vaccinium caucasicum) contains
high concentrations of anthocyanidins and the blueberry leaf,
contains chlorogenic acid -- which can help the body metabolize of carbohydrates.
Georgia was once a major producer of green tea --
an excellent source of catechins -- in the Soviet Union.
Many of these old tea plantations are still producing unique, rich and flavorful teas. **
The Rhododendron caucasicum plant is found at high mountain elevations. Young leaves
of this plant are brewed into a tea that contains
catechin (flavonol), astilbin (flavonoid), taxifolin (flavonoid),
and caffeoylquinic acid (cinnamate conjugates). These phenolic compounds help improve physical abilities, increase activity of the
cardiovascular system, and increase blood supply to the muscles and especially to the brain. **
Kura Natural is producing three phytochemical-based nutraceuticals: Aralium™
which helps soothe inflammation of the joints; Kolchisponin™
which supports normal blood pressure and
healthy cholesterol levels. Our Garden Savory Extract is used to support
normal blood sugar levels. **
Our Apis Resistant™ product is a favorite of endurance athletes who require quick, long-lasting energy
from a natural, non-caffeine source. Made from the monofloral honey of the Acacia, it also contains propolis and bee royal
jelly to help strengthen the immune system. **
We are also offering a traditional preparation, Marigold Flower Oil -- the active ingredient being the oil extracted from the Marigold Flower,
which is used to soothe burns, abrasions and ulcers.. This product can be used both internally and externally. **
