The scientific back-up

BeneXia™ builds its scientific back-up on the Columbus
Concept, as the Chia Seed is a Columbus Concept complying
food thanks to:

The excellent ratio between the ω-6:ω-3 = 1:3

The good quality and quantity of Antioxydants Vitamins
and Minerals included in the Chia Seed.
THE COLUMBUS CONCEPT
The logo Ying Yang Columbus Concept as a guarantee for health
The Colombus Concept : a new
standard in lipidic nutrition
A FOOD CHARACTERIZED BY A BALANCE BETWEEN THE ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS
OMEGA-3 : OMEGA-6 ~ 1 : 1 IS AN IDEAL DIET-DERIVED SAFEGUARD AGAINST
TISSUE INFLAMMATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF CHRONIC DISEASES.
The Columbus Concept stands for a return of the Omega-3 ALA (α-linolenic acid) in the diet
to such an extend that:

The body fat and triglycerides (TGs) exhibit a balanced ratio of Essential Fatty Acids
(EFAs) (ω6:ω3 EFAs/TGs = 1)

The Total Lipids (TLs) exhibit a proportion of conditionnally-essential highly
unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs) in favour of the ω3 species (ω6/(ω6+ω3) –
HUFAs/TLs = 25%)
The Columbus Concept gives particular attention to the antioxidant content of food.
The Colombus Concept :
epidemiologic confirmation

LAND’S DIAGRAM
Populations with lower bloodrelative concentrations of
Omega-6 HUFAs present lower
CHD-mortality (Japan, Inuits)
Populations with
higher bloodrelative
concentrations of
Omega-6 HUFAs
present higher
CHD-mortality
(USA).
Lands WEM, Functional foods in primary prevention or nutraceutical in
secondary prevention? Curr Top Nutr Res 2003;1(2):113-120
A MODERN CONCLUSION: There is a linear relationship
between the CHD-mortality and the blood-relative
concentrations of Omega-6 HUFAs.
The Colombus Concept :
epidemiologic confirmation
Land’s diagram, a prospective aspect
The 7-country Study, a retrospectif aspect
The Colombus Concept :
clinic confirmation
Clinical trials led in Britain, France, Italy and India have confirmed that a diet
enriched in Omega-3 fatty acids does protect against cardiovascular disease.
Lipid Source: GREENS (ω3-EFA) = plant-based ω3 ALA or GAME (ω3-HUFAs) = marine-based
ω3 DPA, EPA and DHA.
The Colombus Concept : biological
and scientific confirmation
Columbus Food has similar patterns of blood HUFAs to human suffering less from CHD.
Dietary recommended intakes for essential fatty acids need just to be present in
sufficient quantities and balanced to secure the 25% ratio of ω6 in HUFAs, the
maximum protection against heart diseases and probably most degenerative
diseases.
The Colombus Concept :
mathematical confirmation
An empirical equation (mathematical model) derived by WEM Lands (available on the US NIH website) can be
used to test a diet or a food for its potential contribution to HUFA-related tissue inflammatory status.
From this empirical equation, we can conclude that the dietary ratio of plant fats, ω6:ω3-EFAs = 1:3,
maintains a proportion of 25% ω6 in blood total HUFAs.
