ANAHEIM, Calif.—Valensa launched a patented formulation that combines the natural effects of plant-based waxy policosanols and omega-3 fatty acids in a synergistic formula designed to promote gastrointestinal (GI) regularity. Called Go Easy™, the formulation features a patented micro-dispersion of natural, plant-based, non-GMO policosanols, cranberry seed extract and Valensa’s Tresalbio chia seed extract in a softgel. The botanical-based formulation has the effect of reintroducing the positive GI effects of policosanols, usually found in a diet full of leafy green vegetables. It promotes regularity by offering mild lubrication to the bolus of food in the GI tract without some of the unpleasant side effects of traditional laxatives or soluble fibers used for similar effects.
The policosanols used in Go Easy are extracted from plant sources using Valensa’s DeepExtract™ technology. The fatty alcohols are then micro-dispersed in omega-3 oils, including extracts of cranberry seed and Tresalbio. Valensa’s proprietary botanically-derived stabilization system—called the O2B peroxidation blocker—ensures stability of the Go Easy formulation and provides additional beneficial antioxidants to the formula. Valensa’s Tresalbio chia seed extract has a high level of omega-3 and natural antioxidants such as caffeic acid and tocopherols. Go Easy is safe to take with a high fiber diet especially diets that contain insoluble fiber.
