Gratitude for 2012

     I have been thinking about all the things I am grateful for in 2012, and one that has made my list is being introduced to such a great product and company. I truly believe that in 2013 I will hear more incredible testimonies from Protandim users and experience great growth on the business side of Life Vantage. When I first decided to sell Protandim I had reservations about it being a direct sales company. Everything about being " direct sales" screamed "NOOOOO!". The only thing that opened my mind was the fact that I BELIEVED in the the product and the science behind it.

     As the year ends, I continue to be encouraged hearing from users seeing benefits in their health and from people unrelated to the product or company adding their stamp of approval. Dr. Sanjay Gupta M.D, talks about Dr. Joe McCord and his help in creating this profound supplement in his New York Best Seller " Chasing Life ".  Ty Bollinger, the author of " Cancer, step out of the box", talks about Protandim, being a beneficial supplement to add to your regimen in living a proactive lifestyle in fighting the cancer epidemic in our society. He also mentions that you can purchase Protandim thru direct sales,  but do not let that scare you away, it is a great product.

So here is an internet toast to 2013! May our new year be filled with health, healing and growth!

Reducing Oxidative Stress with Protandim

PROTANDIM ELIMINATES UP TO ONE MILLION FREE RADICALS A SECOND, 24HRS A DAY, WITHOUT DEPLETING THE ANTIOXIDANT ENZYMES


 Direct Antioxidants DON'T Work!!!



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.
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.

Dr. Mike Explains Oxidative Stress

The following link is clip from Dr. Mike on the show The Doctors. He does a great job explaining the role of oxidative stress and how it effects our health AND how we age. We cannot stop aging, but we can slow it down and have a better quality of life . He mentions the importance of eating healthy, which is essential, but to have a supplement that has been proven to lower our oxidative stress by 40% in addition to that is a game changer. Dr. Mike on The Doctors

Why do people age?

- Why do people age and how can Protandim help slow that process?

Nationally recognized anti-aging expert Dr. Joe McCord explains, "Researchers and scientists agree that aging is the result of cellular deterioration caused by free radicals, which are rogue molecules. It is impossible to avoid free radicals because the food you eat and the air you breathe, as well as stress or even vigorous exercise, can stimulate cells to produce destructive free radicals in staggering numbers. With each year, a person's body becomes less effective at fighting free radicals. It's a vicious cycle, programmed into genes, which results in aging, disease and eventually death. A person's body fights free radicals by producing its own antioxidant enzymes. But as we grow older, our bodies produce more free radicals and fewer of these antioxidant enzymes to fight the battle of aging. That's where Protandim plays a critical role. Protandim boosts the body's own production of antioxidant enzymes at the cellular level with enough neutralizing capacity to eliminate the age-related increase in free radical damage."
