Internal Antioxidant Machine
We are constantly being bombarded by free radicals and our cells have a continuous need to quench these very unstable molecules which trigger all sorts of diseases, including heart disease and cancer as well as inflammatory disease of all types.
A free radical is an atom or groups of atoms that have one or more unpaired electrons. When generated in excess or not appropriately controlled , free radicals can wreak havoc. A prominent feature of free radicals is they have extremely high chemical reactivity which explains how they inflict damage on cells. The body protects itself from oxygen free radicals toxicity by enzymatic antioxidant. eg. glutathione
The Big Three
Vitamin E -plays a big role in protecting membranes from oxidative damage
Vitamin C -can reduce radicals from a variety of sources
Glutathione -the most important intracellular defense against damage by reactive
oxygen species Glutathione is used as an electrone donor.
To put the antioxidant story into perspective it is useful to consider that antioxidants function by quenching (neutralizing) highly reactive molecules called free radicals. Free radicals are generated by exposure to all sorts of environmental effects-radiation, pollution, cigarette smoking, barbecued meats, emotional stress, poor internal detoxification process, obesity, diabetes and so on.
AM Genex DNA is different from apparently similar products that promote a high ORAC score. (antioxidant activity) It is largely the health of each cell that is which determines the overall health of the individual. AM Genex DNAs flagship ingredient CellActiv, functions by enhancing the cell's own internal defence systems by directly interfacing with the expression of the cell's DNA, the master code of each cell.
This epigenetic function of AM Genex DNA elevates it into an entirely new category of functional food. CellActive's activity extends well beyond the antioxidant claims made by so many supplements. CellActive "switches on" the cells own antioxidant enzymes . These antioxidants produced by the body have a potential far more powerful than any found in food. The cells own antioxidant enzymes defences are so powerful that they can quench millions of free radicals each minute. Because these antioxidants are enzymes they can continue to recycle themselves for days quenching untold numbers of free radicals. We are talking about a very different system!
Amega products like the AMwand AMpendant and the AM Genex DNA are available through sponsership and not through retail. The products are available world wide.
