With all this talk going on about free radicals and antioxidants, I learnt that my body also contributes to my cell destruction by producing free radicals. After all my deliberate and ongoing healthy diet and lifestyle choices – ok, sometimes I eat a burger and fries – I wanted to know more. In my search I discovered who the real baddies are and knew I wanted to find the most powerful antioxidant products that exist.
The link that exist between free radicals, and premature aging and disease has been proven scientifically. Apart from the free radicals produced as a physical metabolism by-product, there are other serious free radical threats around:
Air and Environmental Pollution, Cigarette Smoke, Pesticides and a myriad of chemical polluters Stress, and the stress experienced through Trauma, Illness and the Aging process The deadly Chain Reaction response of free radicals when they reproduce a free radical in the molecule which they partly or completely shattered. The new free radical then moves onto a fresh molecule or part of a cell to survive (read destroy) and on and on the destructive process goes. This chain reaction takes place in a millionth of a second and can produce a million more free radicals.
The unrelentless free radical chain reaction process has a major part in the aging process and wrinkled skin, and lowers the body’s immune defenses against major diseases, such as cancer, arthritis, heart disease, tumors, and many more conditions. Free radicals play a big detrimental part in ravaging our internal organs, for example a person of 70 could have half the size liver he had at the age of 20! Better to take preventive action now!
The good news is that there are easy solutions to the free radical threat in the form of fresh fruit and veggies, and natural antioxidant products and supplements to halt the damage. It has been proven that antioxidant products and supplements are very active in supporting the immune system. Furthermore, when antioxidant products and supplements are taken at higher therapeutic levels, they could reverse some of the effects of aging and disease.
The best antioxidant products use only natural whole food derivatives and isolates in a complex supplement, and to profit from the added synergistic effect that the antioxidants share.
The most potent antioxident formula that I found is a full spectrum one, called Ultimate Antioxidant. The Ultimate Antioxidant formula is made up of full doses of 21 of the most potent antioxidents to promote healthy cell growth throughout the body. I like to test new promising antioxidant products on an ongoing basis, but haven’t found a better one yet. Some of the following powerful antioxidants can be found in this product:
Vitamin A, in the carotenoid complex form, including: beta carotene, alpha carotene, lycopene, and zeaxanthin. Vitamin A is a potent antioxidant that strengthens the immune system and lungs against various types of cancers that affect the lungs, stomach, cervix, breast, bladder and mouth Organic Selenium, which is the most powerful anti-carcinogen known, stops the growth of tumors and protects the liver Gingko Biloba, the well-known brain antioxidant which increases brain functions such as concentration and memory Curcumin. Studies have shown that it can inhibit colon cancer cells by some 96% in a matter of hours, and also counters the effects of prostate and breast cancer Green Tea antioxidants are particularly effective in getting rid of the causes of leukemia, prostate and breast cancer; green tea is effective in regulating blood sugar, reducing triglycerides and in reversing the ravages of heart disease; green tea protects against brain-cell death from glucose oxidas; and green tea extract may play a major role in protecting against both Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease. Some of the other antioxidants found in this potent antioxidant supplement: Vitamin E, Bilberry, Alpha lipoic acid, Superoxide dismutase, Resveratrol, Catalase, Biotin, Bioperine, L-Methionine, Quercetin, and natural Vitamin C.
The Ultimate Antioxidant formula has been tried and tested by thousands of satisfied users and its developer, Jon Barron, continues to improve the product as new and better ingredients are discovered.
