FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) July 18, 2008 -- What are free radicals?

A visual example of free radicals at work is a sliced apple. After leaving it exposed for a short time, it turns brown! Free radicals exist in the air and can result from cigarette smoke, car exhaust and industrial fumes. Ironically enough, just breathing in pure oxygen promotes free radicals! Our bodies encounter about 10,000 free radical hits on a daily basis. It is virtually impossible to escape from them. But there are measures we can take to protect ourselves from the destructive forces of free radicals

Vitamin B12

Also known as cobalamin, is necessary for the body’s normal synthesis of red blood cells, important for the maintenance of a healthy nervous system and vital for the proper growth and development of children.

FOLIC ACID

Folic Acid is needed for the body’s energy production and is necessary for the body’s normal creation of red blood cells.* It also helps synthesize DNA, which carries the body’s genetic information, helps with normal tissue growth and cell function.* In addition, Folic Acid also helps support the formation of digestive acids.

Alpha Lipoic Acid

Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) is a naturally occurring compound that is synthesized in small amounts by plants, animals and humans. Scientists first discovered the importance of ALA in 1953, and it was recognized as an antioxidant in 1988. It has recently been the subject of a tremendous amount of research around the world, including the University of California Berkeley, The Linus Pauling Institute and The Mayo Clinic. ALA is highly recommended in the New York Times’ best selling book, The Perricone Prescription by Nicholas V. Perricone.

RESVERATROL

Resveratrol is a naturally occurring compound produced in plants and grapes, found primarily in the skin and seeds. Resveratrol is the key ingredient in red wine that made headlines in November (2006) when scientists demonstrated that it kept overfed mice from gaining weight, turned them into the equivalent of Olympic marathoners, and seemed to slow down their aging process. Very few medical discoveries have generated such an instant buzz.
