The severity and extent of calcification in the major arteries reflect atherosclerotic plaque burden and strongly predict cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The present inventive composition used for administration to human and other mammalian subjects comprise select actives that inhibit, interfere or regulate biochemical processes leading to such calcification…In addition the present compositions are effective against associated conditions or contributory factors/inducers to VC including diabetes, obesity, hypertension, inflammation, oxidative stress, osteoporosis, and arthritis.”

July 2021: OptiCel News: Patents and Peer Reviewed Publications 

To our supporters, investors, and consumers, we are excited to share a progress report on the first-ever product, OptiCel, designed for a breakthrough in the prevention and early treatment of chronic diseases -- cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and arthritis. OptiCel just received two US patents - Joint Health and Joint and Bone Health. These were proceeded by three peer-reviewed publications -- on heart health, diabetes and safety. 

Patents: The current estimate is that nearly 50% of adults in the US experience joint pain, with many being diagnosed with arthritis. Inflammation, joint pain, and arthritis can be debilitating and interfere with one's daily activities. Healthcare institutions worldwide agree arthritis comprises many diseases and syndromes. Over time, these conditions can become more painful and often are progressive and degenerative. These conditions can be broadly categorized as joint disease.

Thanks to the advances in biotechnology, we can now see these diseases coming 10 to 20 years in advance, mainly from inherited conditions and lifestyle choices. All major scientific (NIH, CDC, US NationalAcademies, etc.) and medical (AMA. AHA, WHO, etc.) institutions now agree that these diseases can be prevented and at least delayed into much later in life, giving people healthy aging, high quality of life and productivity. Unfortunately, however, there is little focus on prevention at present. OptiCel is part of the initial steps consumers can take proactively to own their health and start their positive journey on prevention. The breakthrough design and performance of OptiCel's Joint Health formula are rooted in its bioavailability and that it holistically works on known triggers of the disease at the cellular level where the various triggers of diseases, healing, and prevention take place. 

Our invention encompasses compositions and methods for effectively treating and preventing the development or progression of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. The invention (OptiCel Joint Health OTC) helps to promote overall joint health. This is accomplished by holistically addressing multiple chemical processes that can lead to disorders at a cellular level. The invention includes compositions of natural agents that safely and effectively suppress the various biochemical processes that increase the risk for or lead to the development of arthritis.

Publications: OptiCel Glucose Balance: "Best of Science and Nature, Alternative Approaches to Preventing and Treating Type 2 Diabetes", Journal of Alternative, Complementary, and Integrative Medicine. OptiCel Glucose Balance demonstrates clinically significant benefits in lowering and managing glucose levels even where current test approaches have failed, reducing weight, increasing energy, and better sleep. 

OptiCel Heart Health: "Prevention of Vascular Calcification by Magnesium and Selected (highly bioavailable) Polyphenols," Advances in Preventive Medicine, vol. 2021, Article ID 6686597. OptiCel demonstrated that its ingredients work synergistically to prevent arterial cell calcification (hardening of arteries). 

OptiCel Safety: "Unique formulation of Cardio Protective Bio-Actives: Overview of Their Safety Profile" -- Medicines (MDPI Journal). Expert safety review by ex FDA toxicologists and Pharma clinician confirms the excellent safety profile of OptiCel. 

Summary: Practically every adult in the US and around the world has risk factors for at least one of the chronic diseases. It is important to take early action to help remain healthy and in turn prevent or delay disease. OptiCel can be a great addition to one’s health care regimen to help optimize cellular health.
