Description
Provides Potent Antioxidant Support Aids In Normal Aging Supports Immune Function Gluten-Free Ultra Anti-Oxidant Is A Potent Antioxidant Dietary Supplement That Includes Not Only Antioxidant Vitamins Such As Vitamin A, C, E, But Also Other Nutrients Such As Glutathione, Nac And Pycnogenol That Effectively Participate In The Body'S Antioxidant Defense Systems That Contribute To Healthy Aging.Body Cells And Tissues Are Threatened Continuously By Damage Caused By Toxic Free Radicals And Reactive Oxygen Species (E.G., Peroxides) Which Are Produced During Normal Oxygen Metabolism, By Other Chemical Reactions, And By Toxic Agents In The Environment.Free Radicals, Once Formed, Are Capable Of Disrupting Metabolic Activity And Cell Structure. When This Occurs, Additional Free Radicals May Be Produced Which, In Turn, Can Result In More Extensive Damage To Cells And Tissues. The Uncontrolled Production Of Free Radicals Is Thought To Be A Major Contributing Factor To Many Degenerative Pathologies.The Bodys Antioxidant Defense System Is More Than The Sum Of Its Parts. That Is Because Antioxidants Depend On Each Other For Ongoing Usefulness. For Example, Beta-Carotene Supports Vitamin E, Recognized As Perhaps The Bodys Most Valuable Fat Soluble Antioxidant. It Prevents Oxidation Of Unsaturated Fatty Acids By Inactivating Free Radicals, Thus Stabilizing And Protecting Cell Membranes, E.G. In The Lungs, Eyes, And Arteries.Vitamin E Can Be Regenerated By Vitamin C. Vitamin C Is A Potent Water-Soluble Antioxidant Nutrient, Also Supporting Protecting Cells From Oxygen Free Radical Damage. It Is Essential For Connective Tissue And Bone Metabolism, Capillary Health, And Immune Function. Vitamin C Works Together With Vitamin E.When Vitamin E Is Inactivated By Neutralizing Free Radicals, Vitamin C Regenerates It Back To Full Activity. In This Process, However, Vitamin C Is Oxidized And Loses Its Antioxidant Activity. Glutathione Reactivates Vitamin C, While Selenium And B-Vitamins Are Needed To Keep Glutathione Useful.Glutathione Is A Naturally Occurring Tripeptide Which Is A Major Component Of Two Anti-Free Radical Enzymes - Glutathione Peroxidase And Glutathione Reductase. As Such, Glutathione One Mechanism For Scavenging Toxic Free Radicals And Inhibiting Peroxidation Thereby Slowing Down Free-Radical Catalyzed Chain Reactions. Glutathione Can Also Reactivate (Reduce) Oxidized Vitamin C. Glutathione Per Se Is Well Absorbed In The Intestine, And Enters The Blood And Other Extr Country Of Origin: USA Manufacturer/Importer/Packed By: Douglas Laboratories
