Provided herein are compositions and methods for preparing foods and beverages that contain additives, such as nutraceuticals, pharmaceuticals, and supplements, such as essential fatty acids, including omega-3 fatty acids, omega-6 fatty acids, conjugated fatty acids, and other fatty acids; phytochemicals, including phytosterols; other oils; and coenzymes, including Coenzyme Q10, and other oil-based additives.

A nutritional supplement for reducing free radical damage is disclosed. The nutritional supplement includes a first vehicle comprising an upregulating compound mixture configured to upregulate an endogenous antioxidant system and an exogenous antioxidant mixture and a second vehicle comprising a mineral mixture. The upregulating compound mixture is configured to upregulate an endogenous antioxidant system to protect against free radical damage. The upregulating compound mixture includes alpha lipoic acid, resveratrol, curcumin, EGCG, Olivol, rutin, quercetin, and hesperetin. The endogenous antioxidant system includes transcription factors such as Nrf2, NF-B, PPAR, PPAR/, and PPAR that promote transcription of antioxidant genes.

A composition for supporting endogenous systems related to life span, inhibiting mTOR, and reducing damage associated with oxidative phosphorylation. The composition comprises an upregulating compound mixture configured to upregulate an endogenous antioxidant system, an exogenous antioxidant mixture configured to inhibit oxidation of biomolecules by reactive oxygen species, and a mineral mixture configured to provide one or more cofactors to a endogenous antioxidant enzyme. The endogenous antioxidant system includes regulation of mitophagy through mTOR mediated regulation, and a Nrf2 transcription factors that promotes transcription of antioxidant genes.
