Oxidative Stress and Your Health

Oxidative stress is a condition that arises when our cells cannot adequately destroy the free radicals we make as a normal byproduct of metabolism and cellular processes. We make more free radicals during periods of exercise, physical and emotional stress.

Free radicals are truly radical. Free radicals are unstable oxygen molecules that, according to research, can hit each cell in the body 10,000 times each day! As these free radicals constantly hit the cell membrane, it starts to break down and become weak. This is where the oxidative stress begins. Think about an iron pole outside in the weather. After enough time in the elements it will start to rust and breakdown. Oxidative stress is like "rust" in your cells. They harm our immune system leading to many degenerative diseases including heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.

So what to do? Antioxidants fight free radicals. And we can get lots of antioxidants from eating dark fruits like raspberries, acai berries, dark chocolate, or oranges.

Ok, simple right?

Well, yes and no.

Yes, you can consume the above foods, but according to scientific studies you get the "one and done" deal. Which means each antioxidant neutralizes one free radical. So it would be impossible to consume enough antioxidants, through the foods we eat, to combat the free radicals your body produces everyday.

But there is an answer.

You could eat 350 oranges, over 30 lbs of raspberries, or 15 lbs of dark chocolate each and every day to fight the free radicals and help prevent the havoc they produce in your cells. But eating that much is impossible.

Ok, eating that much is not the answer.

But what if you could take a supplement that would help your body produce powerful antioxidant enzymes, SOD(superoxide dismutase) and CAT(catalase), which works together to neutralize more free radicals than any "consumable" antioxidants? And by neutralizing these free radicals you are slowing the aging process and the resulting age related health issues!

That supplement is Protandim. Protandim is clinically proven, per Lifevantage.com, in a published peer reviewed study to "eliminate the age-related increase in cell aging factors".

Protandim is different than antioxidant supplements. What Protandim actually does is signal the cells in your body to produce its own antioxidants enzymes ( SOD & CAT), which provide thousands upon thousands of times more antioxidant power than any food or conventional supplement. It's like having an army of millions fight an army of one 24/7/365.

Protandim has been clinically proven to slow the aging process and the related health issues associated with physically aging.

Is Protandim the fountain of youth?
