"Studies suggest that our DNA accounts for only about 30 percent of how long we live. The rest is up to us. Thanks to cutting edge scientific research and incredible advances, practical immortality may now be within our grasp." Dr. Sanjay Gupta Chief Medical Correspondent, CNN NY Times Best Selling Author "Practical Immortality" |
"... Aging is really not about preventing disease; getting rid of heart disease and cancer gains us less than a decade of life. Rather we need to slow the rate of aging to avoid the frailty that would make longevity less desirable." Dr. Mehmet Oz Vice-Chair and Professor of Surgery, Columbia University; Times Best-Selling Author; Health Expert "Oprah Winfrey Show" The Key: Slowing the Rate of Aging |
Antioxidant supplements and antioxidant rich foods are promoted heavily But do consumable antioxidants really fight the free radicals that cause aging? |
Maybe. If you're willing to consume... 375 oranges daily... or 11 pounds of blueberries daily... or 87 glasses of red wine daily... or 120 vitamin C tablets daily. |
Why is Protandim so effective? Protandim contains a unique combination of phytochemicals that signal the body's genes to produce its own antioxidant enzymes - thousands of times more than any conventional sources of antioxidants from food or supplements. |
This free-radical damage that causes aging is called Oxidative Stress, the same process that causes rust. In a sense, aging is your body's way of rusting from the inside out! Scientists agree that aging and most deadly diseases are the result of cellular deterioration due to destructive molecules called free-radicals. |
In a peer reviewed, published human medical study, the amount of free radical toxins (TBARS) in the blood was measured in control subjects of all ages, many of whom were taking antioxidant supplements. As you can see, free radical damage increases predictably as you age. The free radicals in your body that cause aging can be measured quantitatively and accurately. |
To neutralize these destructive free radicals, our cells produce special ANTIOXIDANT ENZYMES. |
After only 30 days, Protandim virtually eliminated the age- related increase in oxidative stress among all test subjects, reducing the progressive trend of cell aging to the level of a 20 year old. Protandim reduced the rate of cell aging to the level of a 20 year old! |
The Protandim formula was validated by Dr. Joseph McCord, Professor of Medicine at the University of Colorado. Dr. McCord was twice nominated for the Nobel Prize in Medicine for his scientific discoveries related to the process of aging. And the proof is conclusive. |
What prompted ABC Primetime to feature a positive report about Protandim(r)? |
ABC Primetime Report |
The results of a recent, new peer- reviewed study (Free Radical Biology & Medicine) clearly demonstrate that Protandim produces a 300 percent increase in glutathione, which is a key antioxidant and anti-aging factor. In addition, the study confirms that Protandim's synergistic formulation provides thousands of times more antioxidant power than any food or conventional supplement. New study proves Protandim produces 300% increase in Glutathione, a key antioxidant and anti-aging factor. |
Institutions include... Ohio State University Univ. of Minnesota Virginia Commonwealth Vanderbilt University University of Florida University of Michigan University of Kentucky Louisiana State University Denver Health Medical Center University of Colorado And...over 20 scientific studies of Protandim are underway at leading institutions, involving the most serious health conditions. |
