Free Radicals are Bullies

Most people believe that genetics or bad luck gave them diseases for which the only treatments are drugs and surgeries. As a result, organized medicine will sell an estimated three-trillion-dollars worth of drugs and surgeries in 2010.

Drugs and surgeries are obviously not the solution to our medical problems; each year MORE, not fewer people die slowly (and expensively) from pharmaceutically and surgically-treated diseases.

Through the study and implementation of "Orthomolecular" science, diseases such as Heart Disease, Cancer, Diabetes, Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinsons, to the common cold can be prevented simply by giving the body the nutrients it needs.

Antioxidants protect every cell, tissue and organ in your body. Controls the threat of free radicals and how quickly you age.

Here's how it works: Every cell in your body uses oxygen to make energy. It's similar to the jolt of energy created when your car's engine ignites gas and oxygen. In the case of your car, its byproduct is exhaust. In your body, this "exhaust" is a dangerous outlaw called oxygen free radicals.

Free radicals are dangerous and unstable because they're missing an electron. To re-balance themselves, they run around looking for another electron to steal. They can swipe electrons from any cell they run into: Heart cells, brain cells, you name it...

And the results are usually tragic. When a free radical targets one of your healthy cells, the healthy cell often dies. And the death of these cells accelerates your aging process -- in the same way that a piece of bread goes stale when it's exposed to the air in your kitchen.

But that's just the tip of the iceberg... Oxygen free radicals are the outlaws your body makes on its own. But in today's world, you're under attack from thousands of other types of free radicals.

These free radicals come in the form of cigarette smoke, air and water pollution, plastics and the thousands of chemicals that get into your body every day. It's no wonder your body gets overwhelmed. Your body just doesn't have the defensive power needed to fight off the constant attacks.

Protect yourself from the destructive fire of aging...

Your body protects you with antioxidants every moment of the day. But as you get older, your supplies drop off -- leaving you vulnerable to the wear and tear of aging. And the lower they go, the more you show your age.

Here's the good news: Put the right antioxidants back in your body and you'll help to protect yourself from the fire of oxidation -- the culprit that speeds up your aging clock.
The key is to aid in preventing damage to your health from occurring in the first place with powerful antioxidants.

So, what food have antioxidants? Berries, Broccoli, Tomatoes, Red Grapes, Garlic, Spinach, Tea, Carrots, Soy and Whole Grains.

Antioxidants are molecules which can safely interact with free radicals and terminate the chain reaction before vital molecules are damaged. Although there are several enzyme systems within the body that scavenge free radicals, the principle micronutrient (vitamin) antioxidants are vitamin E, beta-carotene, and vitamin C. Additionally, selenium, a trace metal that is required for proper function of one of the body's antioxidant enzyme systems, is sometimes included in this category. The body cannot manufacture these micronutrients so they must be supplied in the diet.

The benefits of antioxidants from food, or a good quality natural antioxidant supplement, give you the anti aging protection against degenerative diseases and help slow down the aging process of your skin, cells, tissues and organs.
