Scientists agree that aging and many of the health issues associated
with aging are associated with cellular deterioration. Free-radical
damage is known as oxidative stress. Think of oxidative stress as like
the rusting of an engine. We are exposed to free radicals in the
environment, but the overwhelming exposure occurs in your body, where
free radicals are produced as a by-product of cellular metabolism.
Protandim is many times more effective at removing free radicals from
your body than direct antioxidants like vitamins and fruits.
The myth about antioxidants is that for years we've been told that
consuming vitamins, fruits, and other sources of direct antioxidants is
the best way to fight oxidative stress caused by free radicals. But the
latest scientific research shows that this is not the case for two very
important reasons. Consumable antioxidants may cause more harm -
Consuming high-antioxidant products in reality may do more harm than
good, because in some cases as the antioxidant reacts in the body, it
actually produces more free radicals than it eliminates. Also,
consumable antioxidants are ineffective. Consumable antioxidants are
ineffective at removing the huge number of free radical molecules that
are produced in the body every day because it's not how the body
eliminates free radicals in the first place! One molecule of a direct
antioxidant can only remove one free radical molecule. The problem is
that your body produces 300,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (300
sept-tillion) free radicals every day. At this rate, you would need to
consume 87 glasses of red wine, over 350 oranges, over 30 pounds of
raspberries, 11 pounds of blueberries, or 120 vitamin C tablets every
day to equal the antioxidant power you receive from just one daily
caplet of Protandim.
