Deciphering the mystery of free radicals
Free radicals: these tiny yet powerful agents have been the subject of numerous research and debates in the fields of health and nutrition. What exactly are they, and why are they important? Let's delve into the fascinating world of cellular oxidation to find out.
What are free radicals?
Free radicals are highly reactive molecules that contain at least one unpaired electron. This characteristic makes them extremely unstable and prone to reacting with other molecules in their environment, causing a domino effect of oxidative damage to cells.
Sources of free radicals
These molecules are naturally generated in the body as byproducts of cellular metabolism and can also be introduced from the outside through environmental factors such as ultraviolet radiation, air pollution, and cigarette smoke.
Impact on health
Excessive free radicals can wreak havoc on the body, contributing to premature aging, cellular deterioration, chronic inflammation, and increased risk of chronic diseases such as cancer, heart disease, and Alzheimer's.
The battle against free radicals
Fortunately, the body is equipped with an antioxidant defense system that can neutralize free radicals and protect cells from oxidative damage. This system includes antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase and catalase, as well as dietary antioxidants like Vitamin C and Glutathione.
GlutActive: Your antioxidant shield
Now, how can you protect yourself from damage caused by free radicals and strengthen your antioxidant system? This is where GlutActive products come into play. Their line of complexes is specifically designed to support cellular health and protect against oxidative stress.
GlutActive offers a variety of products formulated with potent antioxidants like Glutathione and Resveratrol, all designed to combat free radicals and promote cellular health.
