g3® Juice — Gâc Superfruit Antioxidant Blend With Unmatched Carotenoid Bioavailability

Gâc (pronounced "gack") is a spiky, red-orange fruit native to Southeast Asia that most Americans have never seen — but it contains what may be the most bioavailable natural carotenoids on earth. While a carrot gives you beta-carotene and a tomato gives you lycopene, gâc fruit delivers both in concentrations that dwarf every other fruit studied — up to 70 times more lycopene than tomatoes and 10 times more beta-carotene than carrots. But the real difference isn't just the concentration — it's the delivery form.

Most carotenoids in food are bound to plant cell structures and require dietary fat, bile salts, and enzymatic processing for absorption. Gâc's carotenoids are naturally embedded in fatty acid membranes — a form Pharmanex calls lipocarotenes™. This means they arrive at your intestinal wall pre-packaged for absorption, bypassing the usual barriers that limit carotenoid uptake from conventional food sources. The result is dramatically higher bioavailability from every serving.

Key Benefits

• Lipocarotenes™ — Superior Carotenoid Bioavailability — Gâc's carotenoids are naturally bound to fatty acids, creating a self-emulsifying delivery system that doesn't require dietary fat for absorption. This gives g3 a bioavailability advantage over conventional carotenoid sources
• Cellular Protection — Scientifically demonstrated to protect cells from oxidative damage. Carotenoids are fat-soluble antioxidants that integrate into cell membranes, protecting the lipid bilayer from free radical attack
• Immune System Support — High-dose bioavailable carotenoids support immune cell function and protect immune cells from oxidative stress during immune responses
• Skin and Eye Health — Beta-carotene supports skin cell turnover and UV resilience; lycopene provides cardiovascular and prostate antioxidant support; lutein protects macular tissue from light damage
• Superfruit Blend — Additional antioxidant-rich fruits complement gâc's carotenoid dominance with a broader phytonutrient profile

Key Ingredients

g3's formulation centers on gâc fruit — the most carotenoid-dense fruit identified by modern nutrition science — supported by a complementary superfruit blend.

• Gâc Fruit (Momordica cochinchinensis) — Called "fruit from heaven" in Vietnamese culture, gâc has been used in Southeast Asian traditional medicine and cuisine for centuries. Modern analysis reveals why: its aril (the red membrane surrounding the seeds) contains extraordinary concentrations of beta-carotene, lycopene, and other carotenoids in a naturally fat-soluble (lipocarotene) form. A study in the International Journal of Food Sciences and Nutrition confirmed gâc's exceptional carotenoid content and bioavailability
• Lipocarotenes™ (Lipid-Bound Carotenoids) — The defining feature of gâc. Unlike the carotenoids in carrots or tomatoes (which are bound to fiber and cell walls), gâc's carotenoids are naturally encased in fatty acid membranes. This is functionally similar to what the pharmaceutical industry achieves with lipid nanoparticle delivery — but gâc fruit does it naturally. The result: higher serum carotenoid levels per serving than equivalent amounts of conventional carotenoid sources
• Superfruit Blend — Additional antioxidant-rich fruits (e.g., wolfberry, acai, mangosteen) that provide complementary phytonutrients — polyphenols, anthocyanins, and other antioxidant compounds that work alongside gâc's carotenoids for broad-spectrum cellular protection

How Nu Skin's Approach Differs

Most antioxidant juices use common fruits (pomegranate, blueberry, acai) with decent but unremarkable antioxidant profiles and conventional carotenoid bioavailability. g3 is built around a fruit that most supplement companies don't even know exists — one with a genuinely unique nutritional profile based on the lipocarotene delivery mechanism.

Pharmanex was among the first Western companies to identify gâc's potential, conduct compositional analysis, and develop a consumer-ready product around it. Their sourcing relationships in Southeast Asia ensure supply chain integrity and quality consistency. Under the 6S Quality Process, each batch is tested for carotenoid content, bioavailability markers, contaminants, and microbial safety.

How It Compares

How to Use

Drink 60-90ml daily, ideally in the morning. Shake well before pouring. Can be consumed straight or diluted with water or mixed into smoothies. Refrigerate after opening and consume within the timeframe indicated on the label. Consistent daily use builds and maintains your body's carotenoid reserves — serum levels increase progressively over weeks of daily supplementation.

Who Should Consider This Product

g3 is relevant for anyone wanting concentrated, bioavailable antioxidant protection — particularly those concerned about skin health (UV and blue light protection), immune resilience, or cardiovascular health. It's a great complement to LifePak or Tegreen 97, adding carotenoid-specific coverage to a broad supplement regimen. Also suits families, as it's a pleasant-tasting juice suitable for all ages (adjust serving size for children). If single-serve convenience is preferred, the g3 Single Serve Pouches provide the same formula in portable format.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does g3 taste like?

A: Pleasant, mildly sweet tropical fruit flavor. The gâc itself is subtle — the overall taste comes from the superfruit blend. Most people find it enjoyable straight or slightly diluted.

Q: How is g3 different from regular antioxidant juices?

A: The lipocarotene mechanism. Conventional fruit juices provide antioxidants that require fat for absorption and compete with each other for uptake. Gâc's lipocarotenes are pre-packaged in fatty acid membranes — your body absorbs them more efficiently. It's a fundamentally different delivery system.

Q: Should I get the bottle or single-serve pouches?

A: Same formula. The bottle is more economical for daily home use. Pouches are convenient for travel, office, and on-the-go. Many customers keep a bottle at home and pouches in their bag or desk.

Q: Can I give this to children?

A: Yes — g3 is a fruit juice blend suitable for the whole family. Use a smaller serving for children proportional to their body weight. It's a good way to supplement carotenoid intake in kids who don't eat enough colorful fruits and vegetables.

Q: Can I measure my antioxidant levels?

A: Nu Skin's Pharmanex BioPhotonic Scanner (and newer Prysm iO) measures skin carotenoid levels as a biomarker of antioxidant status. Regular g3 consumption typically increases scanner scores over 4-8 weeks, providing a measurable way to track your antioxidant improvement.
