Purple Corn:
The Purple Corn, scientifically denominated Zea mays L. is a variety of corn that has the coronta and the purple grains and it is native from the old Peru. It has a natural ingredient that is inside the denominated Antocianins, cianidina-3-b-glucose, which is an important antioxidant. The purple corn extract can also be used in sour products where a red color is wanted. The coloring of purple corn is classified with the number AND-163 (EEC).
| This corn variety contains a very important number of phenolic groups besides the Antocianin already mentioned and which is also a flavonoid. |
| Phenols are powerful Antioxidants that protect the cells membranes and the DNA from the oxidative harmful effects of the free radicals. Antocianins are a kind of complex flavonoids that are characterized for having an important antioxidant effect when helping in the tissues regeneration, fomenting the blood flow, reducing the cholesterol and promoting the collagen formation and improving the circulation |
| Phenols are powerful antioxidants that protect cells membranes and the DNA, from the harmful effects of free radicals. Likewise, the Antocianins are potent antioxidants that reduce the body aging; they diminish the risks of heart attack and are excellent preventive against cancer. In the recent years, scientists have demonstrated that many of the pigments that give their color to fruits and Vegetables contain many of the compounds that seem to combat degenerative illnesses of the human body and that offer benefit effects for health and well-being. That is the Antocianins case that the Purple Corn has in a high proportion. |
| These investigations have identified that such compounds are not vitamins, or minerals and they have denominated them phytonutrients. Also well-known as phytochemicals, the phytonutrients are chemical substances that are found in the plants, responsible for giving them color, flavor, protecting them from the ultraviolet rays, helping to combat bacterial, viral or mycotic infections and allowing them to overcome the inclemency and pressures of their environment (insects, predatory animal, drought, etc.). Among the phytonutrients we find the following compound or chemical substances: flavonoids, carotenoids, lutein, terpenes, antocianins, sulforafans, among many others. Contrary to vitamins and minerals, phytonutrients lack nutritional value. However, they act as antioxidants, protecting the cellular DNA and avoiding mutations that could cause cancer. |
They also detoxificate the body from the environmental contamination agents, they disable cancer substances, strengthen the immune system and protect the body from the development of degenerative chronic illnesses as cataracts, arthritis, high tension, diabetes, aging, artherosclerosis and cardiac illnesses, among others. The pharmaceutical use of the Antocianins is also recognized in Ophthalmology, for its properties of increasing visual sharpness and improving night vision. Also for the treatment of different circulation dysfunctions of the blood relatives to the Cholesterol and recently thanks to the Professor's T. Shirai investigations of the faculty of Medicine of the University of Nagoya and the Company San Ei Gene in Japan, it was concluded that the principle active of the Purple Corn, avoids the presence the thick intestine Cancer (Colon cancer).
Doctor Noboyuki Ito, in a visit he made to Peru, explained the procedure carried out in Japanese laboratories. In some laboratory tests with rats, first they were administrated a cancer substance chemically synthesized so that they could contract this illness easily and then they were provided food blended with natural cancer substance that is in the burnt parts of the meat and roasted fish, together with a 5% of the vegetable pigment, during 32 weeks. As a result of this experiment, it was discovered that from 20 rats that were given the cancer substance, 17 (85%) from developed cancer in the thick intestine, in front of only eight rats (40%) that took antocianin.
According to the International Agency for research on Cancer, IARC, the capacity of the cancer substances contained in the burnt areas of the foods is enough to cause cancer in people. According to Dr. Ito, to avoid the risk of contracting this illness it is recommended to include in the daily food the consumption of products with a high content of fibers and first floor in animal protein, fat and hydrates of carbon; it is also recommended the foods with Calcium, Vitamin D and vegetables as the Cabbage, Brussels Cabbage and Broccoli. The Company San Ei Gene that in less than one year ago established a branch in Peru, informed that they continue participating in this investigation to use the coloring as a row material for foods with medicinal applications, due to the alarming increment of intestinal cancer that is observed in developed countries such as Japan.
| It is also important to know that according to our Natural Pharmacopeia, the Purple Corn act as regulator of the high pressure. The Purple Corn is a 100 % natural product, recognized by the European Union with the Code AND-163 and with the same Code for the Japanese Legislation. The Antocianins of the Purple Corn are more stable than the grape Enocianin, to the light, to the heat and mainly to the changes of PH. The Antocianins of the Purple Corn with a pH between 3 and 3.5 remains of a yellowish Red color, while the Enocianin changes blue in that condition. The Purple Corn Antocianins does not contain the sulfides that the grape Enocianin contains. Likewise, they have access to the Kosher Certification. In Peru, the Purple Corn has been used per centuries, without having any king of toxicity problems. |
| The daily consumption of this product is recommended since it contains important quantities of natural antioxidants, which are the best prevention and defense against illnesses and against aging processes. Consider that to consume Natural Antioxidant it is the best insurance policy for a better quality of life. |
