What is an antioxidant?
Let's start with a little background information first. Just like rust on a car,
oxidation can damage our bodies' cells and may contribute to the aging
process. Oxidation happens as the result of invading, damaging molecules
called free radicals. Free radicals are unstable oxygen molecules that get
into the body as a result of over-exercise, stress, being exposed to dirty air
and other environmental pollutants.
Antioxidants help prevent oxidation by counteracting free radicals.* They do
this by binding to them and transforming them into non-damaging
compounds. Consequently, antioxidants are integral in supporting the body's
natural defense system.*
What do you mean by promote?
To contribute to the progress of something in a positive way.
What do you mean by cellular?
In relation to the human body, cellular means of, relating to or consisting of
cells. A cell is the smallest structural unit in the body capable of functioning
independently.
What do you mean by longevity?
A long duration of individual life or long continuance.
What can we conclude from the claim "Antioxidants Promote CellularLongevity?"*
The conclusion is powerful. Antioxidants, because of their free radical
scavenging capabilities, have the ability to promote the longevity of
individual cells and when individual cells in the body are supported in a
positive way, the body as a whole becomes supported. This in turn
contributes to the potential for overall well-being and vitality in the long
term.*
Antioxidants are a crucial part of any serious nutrition program and
independent laboratory tests confirm Vemma® is the most powerful liquid
antioxidant available anywhere!
