Latest Dr McCord Presentation!

If you are looking for more information on Protandim you need to view the latest presentation by Dr McCord that was recently presented at the Elite Academy. This presentation provides more information on Protandim and what is does. He discusses a great website called Pubmed to research medical publications and research information. Take a few minutes out of you day watch the presentation. Afterwards, you will be glad you are taking Protandim. If you are not taking Protandim yet, you may want to.

Dr McCord's Latest Comments on Protandim...Good Stuff!

We have new information from the founder of Protandim (Dr McCord). Checkout his comments from the latest Lifevantage conference.

Protandim was originally developed to up-regulate 3 genes. It turns out that it is a POWERFUL Nrf2 activator. (For those of you going to meetings and participating in Webinars, this isn’t news, but it is something we didn’t know when the ABC Primetime investigative report came out.) Remember, from the business model perspective, we have the market cornered on Nrf2 activators. The Nrf2 pathway regulates about 400 genes, one of them by as much as 3200%! (That’s not a typo.) This particular gene promotes cell survival by responding to free radical damage and protecting your cells from cell death. (Which part of your body isn’t made up of cells?) This is pretty amazing – and you have the exclusive rights to this breakthrough product!

Here’s the other incredible take-away that I got from Dr. McCord’s talk. Activating the Nrf2 pathway sensitizes tumors to chemo and radiation and it protects the non-cancerous cells from the effects of chemo and radiation! (This is hot off the presses NEW information from a study published Oct 6, 2010. see http://www.pubmed.gov/ & search Nrf2 and you will see this) (In English, this means that contrary to what we’d originally believed, this should make the chemo and radiation more effective on tumors while protecting the other cells in the body.) This study wasn’t done on Protandim itself but on one of the ingredients in Protandim which is also a Nrf2 . Since the unique synergy of our 5 ingredients is scientifically proven to increase the effectiveness of each of the ingredients by a factor of 18, this is significant!

Protandim is one amazing product. There is a reason why these schools are researching it:

University of Colorado
Louisiana State University
Denver Health Medical Center
Ohio State University
Children's Hospital, Denver
Vanderbilt University
Virginia Commonwealth University
Glamorgan University, Wales
Colorado State University
Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Goteborg, Sweden
University of Florida
University Hospital, Brno, Czech Republic
University of Kentucky
Mexican Institute of Social Security, Mexico City
University of Michigan

So why are you not taking Protandim?

Glutathione and Protandim

Glutathione is a tripeptide. It contains an unusual peptide linkage between the amine group of cysteine and the carboxyl group of the glutamate side chain. Glutathione, an antioxidant, protects cells from toxins such as free radicals.

Glutathione is one of the body’s key antioxidants. But beyond the effect of glutathione serving as a powerful antioxidant, it does a lot of other things: it allows for the regenesis of other antioxidants, like vitamin C and vitamin E; it plays an absolutely critical role in the liver in a process called Phase II Detoxification, where things that reside in the body are excreted (and in our very toxic world, having healthy amounts of glutathione available for the process of detoxification is critically important); glutathione is important for the way the body repairs tissues; and it also plays a fundamental role in the entire immune system.

“For years, people have been banging their heads against the wall trying to develop a delivery system for glutathione, whether it was encapsulated in liposome, delivered in a suppository, inhaled, rubbed on the skin, developed as a patch…you name it and people have tried it and have largely, almost universally, failed at it,” said Dr. David Perlmutter, Neurologist, LifeVantage Scientific Advisory Board member, “And then along came Protandim. The elegance of the science behind Protandim is indisputable."

What is so elegant about Protandim is that it doesn’t worry about delivering glutathione to the body. In fact it does not deliver any glutathione to the body. There is no glutathione in Protandim. But the science of Protandim is such that is able to speak to a body’s DNA and unlock the DNA Code to allow the body to make its own glutathione! In fact, clinical studies have demonstrated Protandim increases glutathione levels 300%.

“The science of Protandim is elegant and impressive in its simplicity and its effectiveness and clinical efficacy is a marvel,” Dr Perlmutter said. “I think the best is CLEARLY yet to come…Protandim in just in its infancy. There is going to be a global impact of the product.

Dr. Joe McCord, a co-author of the study, commented, "The results of this study may change how we view aging and the factors that impact healthy aging. Notably, glutathione, which is of particular interest to many disease researchers, was increased more than 300 percent with Protandim. Glutathione plays a key role in the immune system and when glutathione levels drop, a person's ability to fight disease also decreases. In addition to the findings on glutathione, the study also shows that Protandim delivers an antioxidant benefit to the body that exceeds those provided by vitamins C and E." McCord added, "Contrary to popular belief, our bodies don't actually rely upon the intake of vitamins, such as C and E, to maintain proper antioxidant balance; rather we utilize a complex network of antioxidant enzymes to maintain health and protect against oxidative stress. Oxiidative stress is damaging to our bodies and is a major contributor to aging, weakened immune function, and over 200 diseases. Protandim reduces oxidative stress by enhancing the body's entire network of antioxidant enzymes." The study was conducted by scientists at the University of Colorado Denver and Ochsner Medical Center.

The natural ingredients in Protandim were specifically chosen based upon their ability to cause the body to produce and up-regulate its natural network of antioxidant enzymes, including SOD and CAT. Protandim has been formulated using high quality, potent natural plant extracts processed under proprietary technologies. It therefore provides powerful antioxidant protection against oxidative stress.
