Anti-Rust nutrients
Aging causes oxidation, which literally means rusting. As you get older, 'rust' forms everywhere in your body in the form of waste buildup. Uric acid forms from digesting protein, lactic acid forms from muscle use, and carcinogens ingested or inhaled form the environment. The result: creaky, painful joints and clogged arteries.
Antioxidants are 'anti-rust' nutrients that neutralize and remove the free radicals that cause oxidative damage. Glutathione, a naturally occurring compound found in asparagus, avocado, walnuts, and fish is considered a 'master antioxidant'. It regulates immune cells, protects against cancer, aids in DNA synthesis and repair, and assists in detoxifying. A deficiency in gluthathione can be a factor in diabetes, low sperm count, liver disease, heart disease, and premature aging.
