Antioxidants PROVEN to Help Prevent Cancer

The National Cancer Institute published results a few years ago from a study conducted. You can find the entire results here.

The key points of the study found:
  • Antioxidants protect cells from damage caused by unstable molecules known as free radicals (see Question 1&3).
  • Laboratory and animal research has shown antioxidants help prevent the free radical damage that is associated with cancer. However, results from recent studies in people (clinical trials) are not consistent (see Question 2).
  • Antioxidants are provided by a healthy diet that includes a variety of fruits and vegetables (see Question 4).

Disruptive technology...

Wikipedia defines Disruptive Technology as a technological innovation, product, or service that eventually overturns the existing dominant technology or product in the market. Disruptive innovations can be broadly classified into lower-end and new-market disruptive innovations. A new-market disruptive innovation is often aimed at non-consumption, whereas a lower-end disruptive innovation is aimed at mainstream customers who were ignored by established companies.

Is the Biophotonic scanner disruptive technology? I believe it is and will continue to be. Antioxidants are important to battling many of the more prevalent medical conditions in our world today, and aging. If you were to be totally honest with yourself, you probably have a desire to fight all of these conditions. Who wouldn't want to? That alone will be the driving force that will quickly make the Biophotonic scanner become disruptive technology. It will change the way the medial field prescribes supplements and diets to their patients. With a biophotonic scanner to give patients an accurate QUICK reading of their antioxidant levels, it will not be difficult to convince them that they need changes in their diet and supplements. Could the scanner lead to a healthier society as a whole? I think so and so do many others.

How would you have liked to be the one to distribute iPods to the world?
How about the microwave?
Television?
Telephone?
See the point?

With any disruptive technology there will be some that participate in the wave and are well rewarded, while others refuse to see.

Which are you?

A Picture is Worth A Thousand Words

A Picture is Worth A Thousand Words!

Today I figure why clutter this space with words when a video clip can express things so much clearer.

You know your level...now what?

So you've gone through the steps of getting yourself scanned. You know your antioxidant level. If you are like most people, your level will not be near as high as you would like. So, the conclusion is you would like to increase your antioxidant levels. How do you improve your antioxidant levels?
  1. Change your diet to include a healthier mix of foods. This has actually become more difficult as more of what we eat contains so many additives and preservatives. Fresh fruits and vegetables are great sources of many antioxidants. Most of us (especially in the United States) don't eat near enough fresh fruits and vegetables.
  2. Add a SCIENTIFICALLY developed supplement to your diet. There are many different nutritional supplements out there. Unfortunately, many of them don't have much science behind them. Nutritional supplements are often not cheap. So, if you are going to invest your hard-earned money, you want to use something that is going to make a difference. One product available (that has been scientifically PROVEN to raise antioxidant levels) is Pharmanex Lifepak Nano .
  3. Reduce things that actually LOWER your antioxidant levels. There are some factors that lower your antioxidant levels due to the huge amount of free radicals they produce. Some of these items include: stress, smoking, exposure to smog and pollution, and foods high in fats and sugars. (Do you see now how our free radical levels can get so high?)

We all want to be healthier. So are fighting these free radicals by increasing antioxidant levels really worth it?

Excess free radicals have been linked to many conditions including:

  • Aging
  • Various Cancers
  • Coronary Heart Disease
  • Arthritis
  • Autoimmune Diseases
  • Alzheimer's
  • Parkinson's Disease
  • Cataracts

So, is it really worth the trouble? I don't know about you, but if I can do anything to keep away from any of these conditions, I am certainly going to seriously consider it. Can you put a price on your health?

How do I get my antioxidant level?

Now you understand why antioxidants are important. You also understand it's important to find out what your level is to determine if your current diet and supplements are improving your levels. With this information you can determine if you are doing all you can to combat the effects of free radicals on your body (aging, heart disease, cancer, etc).

How do you get scanned to find your antioxidant level?

First of all its important to realize the scanner is not readily available everywhere yet.

The best way to get yourself scanned, is to get in touch with me via email or call our offices at 312-780-1706. We can make arrangements to get you scanned in your area. The next question is how much will this set me back? What will it cost? We are making a special deal for people that mention they saw this on our blog...$10 will get you scanned! That's an incredible deal. All you need to do is tell us you read about the special price on our blog.

We look forward to hearing from you.

So...if we need antioxidants, how do we find our current levels?

Antioxidants have been a very hot topic in the health field for a number of years. However one challenge in the industry has always been how do you effectively measure the levels of antioxidants in your body?

Perhaps the most common method in the health field today is through blood testing. There are a few challenges here:
  • If you are going to use a blood test, you need to get stuck with a needle.
  • Blood test results can take days even weeks for results.
  • Antioxidant levels in the blood can be highly influenced by recent ingestion, so isn't all the accurate.
  • Blood testing can be very expensive.

There is a new disruptive technology that will change the way these levels are measured. The biophotonic scanner is a non-intrusive test for antioxidant levels. Advantages with this method include:

  • Non-invasive (no needle sticks)
  • Results in MINUTES
  • Measures LONG TERM levels in the skin and therefore isn't influenced by your last meal (or anything else you've eaten for that matter).
  • Very low cost for biophotonic scans

There is plenty of clinical studies proving the effectiveness of the scanner. There have been numerous double-blind tests performed to prove the validity of the scanner. Check out the information for yourself...

Clinical Information on Biophotonic Scanner

If you know that antioxidants are vital to good health and fighting aging...shouldn't you get information to get your levels measured?

Antioxidants...what's all the hub bub?

When people speak of health and diet, any more these days you often can't enter too far into this conversation without the term antioxidants coming up. So, for those of us without a medical degree, what is the down and dirty on why antioxidants are so important?

The simplified version...

Our bodies are full of things called free radicals. In the human body, these free radicals often come in the form of 02. So where do free radicals come from? Free radicals are the by-product of many normal processes in the body. (They are introduced in large amounts through environmental factors such as cigarrette smoke and radiation among others.) These free radicals want to become OXIDIZED. As these free radicals cruise around the body, they cause damage to cell walls along the way. In the extreme, this damage can become irreversable and lead to conditions such as CANCER or heart disease.

So...the bottom line...

Antioxidants help clean up the free radicals roaming through our bodies. If left unchecked, these free radicals can lead to heart disease, cancer or other health conditions.
