How does BJE100 differ from the earlier BPF99 bergamot extract?

BJE100 is BergaMet's new patented citrus bergamot extract, developed over the past two years by the company's scientific and research team in Italy. It contains all of the polyphenols of BPF99, plus a branch of amino acids and soluble fibre, which collectively enhances the benefits of it. It has proven to be twice as effective as BPF99 and has six times the antioxidant count of BPF99, which results in a more potent extract. We stock it at SuperPharmacyPlus in BergaMet Advanced (AUST L 375467), which contains 500 mg of Citrus Bergamot (BJE100) per tablet.

Two differences are stated between the two extracts.

Composition. BJE100 contains all of the polyphenols of BPF99, plus a branch of amino acids and soluble fibre. The polyphenol profile carries across rather than being replaced, with the amino acids and soluble fibre appearing alongside it.

Measured comparison. BJE100 has proven to be twice as effective as BPF99, and has six times the antioxidant count of BPF99, which results in a more potent extract.

Each BergaMet Advanced tablet contains 500 mg of Citrus Bergamot (BJE100). The dose is one tablet twice daily, so a full day supplies 1000 mg of the extract. The pack contains 60 tablets, which at two tablets daily represents 30 days.

BJE100 sits alongside four other ingredients in every tablet:

Each tablet contains 500 mg of Citrus Bergamot (BJE100), 50 mg of olive leaf extract standardized to 20% oleuropein, 50 mg of alpha lipoic acid, 50 mg of ascorbic acid (vitamin C), and 5 mg of zinc. At the recommended intake of two tablets per day, this provides 1,000 mg of Citrus Bergamot (BJE100), 100 mg of olive leaf extract, 100 mg of alpha lipoic acid, 100 mg of vitamin C, and 10 mg of zinc.

Olive leaf extract has been shown to have cardioprotective, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-angiogenic and neuroprotective functions. Alpha lipoic acid is an antioxidant, and antioxidants protect against damage to the body's cells. Ascorbic acid is necessary for the growth, development and repair of all body tissues, and is involved in collagen formation, iron absorption, the proper functioning of the immune system, wound healing and the maintenance of cartilage, bones and teeth. Zinc is needed for the proper growth and maintenance of the human body, for immune function, wound healing, blood clotting and thyroid function, and for protein synthesis and cell growth.

The formula carries a broad set of listed benefits:

• Antioxidant, reducing free radicals formed in the body

• Maintain and support natural liver cleansing and detoxification processes

• Anti-inflammatory, relieving inflammation

• Maintain and support healthy blood circulation

• Helps in the maintenance of healthy blood lipids and blood fats

• Helps maintain and support healthy cholesterol

• Helps maintain and support healthy blood sugar and glucose

• Maintain and support cardiovascular system health

• Maintain and support artery health

• Helps enhance and promote healthy liver function

• Hepatoprotectant, protecting the liver

• Maintain and support healthy liver function and liver health

• Maintain and support healthy immune system function

• Decrease, reduce and relieve symptoms of stress

A recent double blind randomised study at a university in Italy indicated that BergaMet Advanced is more effective than BergaMet Pro+, BergaMet's physician quality product. That is the extent of what is stated about the study — it is a separate comparison from the twice-as-effective and six-times-antioxidant figures, which relate to BJE100 against BPF99.

BJE100 contains a branch of amino acids and soluble fibre in addition to all of the polyphenols of BPF99, and these are described as collectively enhancing the benefits of the extract. The polyphenol profile is retained rather than replaced.
