Triactive Technology Battles Damaging Free Radicals & Toxins
Over the past two decades, “antioxidant” has become a buzzword in the health community. It gets thrown around a lot. If you’ve looked into nutrition, you may know that berries are full of antioxidants, as are green veggies, coffee, grass-fed butter, fish, and many other foods.
Fast forward to today, and we’re able to see the benefits of the next generation of antioxidants with PurXcel’s TRIACTIVE TECHNOLOGY, comprised of three key ingredients: glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and aloe vera acemannan. They work together to neutralize destructive free radicals, curbing cellular damage and inflammation. Free radicals are also a driving mechanism behind aging1, so it’s no surprise that these powerhouse antioxidants help to decrease the risk of many age-related diseases.
Antioxidants like vitamin C and lipoic acid, both found in PurXcel, certainly make the grade, and when it comes to neutralizing free radicals, glutathione goes the extra mile—so much so that researchers have nicknamed glutathione “the master antioxidant.” Every single cell in your body produces glutathione, which is what makes it a crucial aspect of immunity and detoxification. Today’s polluted, high-stress world saps your glutathione stores. Boosting your levels back up can help keep you feeling resilient and more clear-headed2.
WHAT IS GLUTATHIONE?
Glutathione is a sulfur-containing molecule every cell in your body makes from the three amino acids: L-glutamine, L-cysteine and L-glycine. The glutathione in PurXcel packs even more of a punch, as it is a bioavailable, or directly ‘absorbable,’ form of the ingredient.
In combination with its proprietary blend of ingredients, PurXcel’s glutathione protects fats from oxidation, supports energy-producing mitochondria, boosts immunity, and helps your brain function at its peak. Glutathione also recharges other antioxidants like vitamin C, making them more effective at balancing inflammation.
Glutathione itself protects against inflammation, toxins, free radicals, and pathogens. You can think of it as your body’s natural detox agent: This effective antioxidant becomes a cofactor for dozens of detox enzymes that neutralize damaging free radicals. Optimal glutathione levels also benefit your gut, cardiovascular system, vision, and metabolism.
Your body makes its own glutathione and uses it to combat inflammation, stress, and toxins from your diet and environment. The modern world is toxic, especially if you’re breathing in city air and working a stressful job. Stressful daily life can quickly drain your glutathione stores. That’s when you can use a little help from a glutathione supplement.
WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM GLUTATHIONE?
Almost everyone. Because it’s found in every cell in your body, glutathione rich PurXCel helps support all kinds of systems.
- Excessive free radicals increase oxidative stress, quickly draining your glutathione tank. That makes sense considering your liver is your biggest glutathione-containing organ, and it plays a crucial role in detoxification. Glutathione reduces heavy metals, free radicals, and other toxins by carrying them out of the body.
- Brain fog. After your liver, your brain contains the highest glutathione concentration. Studies show glutathione defends against reactive oxygen species (ROS), reducing oxidative stress that contributes to everything from brain fog to neurological health.
- Glutathione production declines with age, which can contribute to age-related problems like cognitive decline. Research shows people 100 years or older have higher levels of the enzyme glutathione reductase4.
WHAT ARE THE BEST WAYS TO GET GLUTATHIONE?
Some foods like green veggies contain a little glutathione, sulfur-containing foods like cruciferous veggies and garlic can help build it, and consistent exercise can boost it, but to get therapeutic amounts of this rock-star antioxidant you’ll want to supplement.
Enter PurXcel. PurXcel utilizes a proprietary form of glutathione, which has been shown in clinical trials to significantly increase GSH within the blood and specific immune cells3. Until recent advances, most dietary forms of glutathione are broken down in the digestive system making them incapable of being absorbed in the blood and cells of the body.
WHAT IS SUPEROXIDE DISMUTASE?
Another stand-out ingredient in PurXCel, SOD is an enzyme found in every cell of the body. It is an internal antioxidant defense mechanism, which helps keep oxidative stress at bay.
In clinical trials, superoxide dismutase established improvements in perceived stress, physical and mental fatigue and an overall improvement in the quality of life (Carillon, Notin, Schmitt, Simoneau, & Lacan, 2014).*
WHAT IS ALOE ACEMANNAN?
Used for centuries for its therapeutic properties, the leaf of the Aloe Vera plant contains phytonutrients with known antioxidant and other health-promoting properties. It supports a healthy inflammatory response, thereby extending support to the immune system. (Nejatzadeh-Barandozi, 2013).
PurXcel uses an exclusive and proprietary form of aloe (BioAloe®) which contains polymannose, a unique polysaccharide. In clinical trials, this ingredient, when combined with other ingredients, demonstrated cognitive function support.
From supporting immune health and fighting oxidative stress, to targeting the signs of aging, PurXcel packs a punch. It also helps balance the ratio of antioxidants and cell-damaging free radicals, offers liver function support, and delivers a hearty boost of nutritional support to the body’s antioxidant defense systems. #howdoyouXcel?
