Everyday we are exposed to harmful free radicals(or "oxidants"), from sources such as smoking, second-hand smoke, toxins, pollution, pesticides, sunlight, and even stress. Nearly 30,000 studies document the link between free radicals and diseases such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes... and even the aging process itself. Antioxidants are powerful nutrients that protect our bodies from these harmful free radicals. Our bodies create some antioxidants, but not nearly enough to keep us healthy. We must take them into our body by eating at least 9-15 servings of fruits and vegetables a day as the National Cancer Institute(NCI) recommends for prevention, or by taking a multi-vitamin supplement. Until now there has not been a non-invasive, immediate, and accurate way to measure antioxidant levels in the body. Now with the Scanner, Healthcare Professionals will be able to monitor their patients' antioxidant levels and keep compliant to lifestyle and behavior changes as necessary- just as they have always been able to monitor other health "bio-markers" such as our cholesterol, blood pressure, weight and blood sugar. By simply placing the palm of your hand in front of a safe, low-energy blue light laser for less than 3 minutes, one can obtain an immediate reading of their Antioxidant Level in less than 3 minutes. This measurement is very meaningful, as Antioxidants are one of the key indicators of the status of one's IMMUNE SYSTEM. Clinical studies prove this reading to be more accurate than blood and urine analysis for antioxidant levels. This is because the scanner is measuring the living skin cell tissue, where is takes approximately 4-6 weeks for nutrients to be absorbed. As clients eat more fruits and vegetables and take supplements such as LifePak® and/or G3 from Pharmanex, they can track their Antioxidant Score for evidence of improved antioxidant activity and protection.
