About SOD (Superoxide Dismutase)
Among the Antioxidants our bodies produce, SOD plays the primary
role. SOD transforms the most reactive, and therefore, the most
dangerous, free radicals the superoxide radicals into
ions that are less reactive. These less reactive ions are then transformed
by catalase and gpx. This transformation is called dismutation,
thus its name Superoxide Dismutase. SOD also signals
other cells to produce more SOD, preparing the antioxidant defense
system against free-radical attacks.
Sip of Sunshine by SUZANNE ESSENTIALS uses a patented
form of SOD called GliSODin®. If you are like most people, chances
are you never knew the human body has its own built-in antioxidant
defense system. And that the bodys own antioxidants, including
SOD, are by far the most important and the fastest acting in protecting
us against harmful oxidative stress.
Unfortunately, aging, environmental factors and the stresses of
daily life can diminish the levels of these important innate antioxidants.
How can we be sure that our internal defense system is going to
be ready for whatever life throws our way?
GliSODin® is a radically different approach to antioxidant
supplementation. Unlike secondary dietary antioxidants, such as
vitamins and minerals, GliSODin® works as an antioxidant catalyst,
promoting the production of the bodys own primary antioxidants
at the cellular level. GliSODin®, is the only orally-effective
SOD supplement, it has been clinically proven effective and is covered
by two U.S. patents (6,045,809 and 6,426,068 B1) with more patents
pending.
About Selenium
For decades, the importance of selenium was unclear. Today, selenium
is one of the most documented and widely studied trace elements
known.
Selenium is a Trace Mineral and is one of the Essential Nutrients
required by the body that must be acquired in the diet from foods
or supplements to support and promote Optimal Health.
Selenium functions in close association with proteins, known as
Seleno-proteins. Seleno-proteins work together with Glutathione
to protect against oxidative stress (free radical damage). Selenium
supports and promotes healthy Thyroid function and Immune system
as well.
Selenium dependent enzymes, known as Seleno-enzymes work together
with many other essential nutrients, and body systems. A deficiency
of Selenium may lead to biochemical changes that predispose to illness
associated with other stresses.
About Vitamin D
Vitamin D is an essential nutrient that every man, woman, and child
must have to not only survive, but thrive. An essential nutrient
is a vitamin, mineral, amino acid, or fatty acid that the body cannot
make on its own and without it, Disease or Death will occur.
Vitamin D is often referred to as "the sunshine vitamin"!
It is comprised of a group of fat soluble seco-sterols that are
found in very few foods as nature would have it. Vitamin D is naturally
photo-synthesized in the skin of vertebrates by the action of solar
ultraviolet B radiation. Vitamin D comes in many forms, but the
two major forms are Vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol).
Since there are concerns about getting skin cancer from too much
sun exposure, many people avoid the sun completely or heavily use
sun screens. Even weak sun screens block your bodys ability
to generate vitamin D by up to 95%. Most adults are working and
outside far less as they age increasing the likelihood of deficiency
even further.
Vitamin Ds major biologic function in humans is to maintain
serum calcium and phosphorus concentrations within the normal range
by enhancing the efficiency of the small intestine to absorb these
minerals from food or supplements we eat and consume on a daily
basis.
Aging significantly reduces the capacity of human skin to produce
vitamin D3. In adults over age 65 years, there is a fourfold decrease
in the capacity to produce vitamin D3 when compared to younger adults
aged 20 to 30. Remember, adequate Vitamin D levels are Essential
for proper calcium metabolism and absorption.
Latitude, climate, time of year and even the clothes you wear also
can affect Vitamin D levels. For example, above or below latitudes
of approximately 40 degrees North and South, respectively , Vitamin
D 3 production in the skin is absent during most of the Winter Months
entirely. The far Northern and Southern latitudes extend this period
for up to 6 months. As we age, we tend to wear more clothing further
limiting our skins ability to produce this Vital Nutrient.
It is now believed most children will need supplements to reach
the desired levels of Vitamin D because there arent many foods
high in Vitamin D except milk that has Vitamin D added. It would
take four 8 ounce glasses each day to get just 400 IU and many Doctors
and Scientists believe we need much more daily for Optimal Health
and Development. Breast fed infants are at an elevated risk
of not getting enough Vitamin D also. Breast-milk is a poor source
of Vitamin D since many adults are deficient in this Essential Nutrient.
