Protandim - Super Anitoxidant

Not Your Average Antioxidant

Direct dietary antioxidants like vitamins A, C, and E, while beneficial, are limited in their ability to neutralize free radicals, the scavengers that cause damage to the 50 to 75 trillion cells that make up your body. This destructive process called oxidative stress is associated with over 200 disease and conditions.
Typical dietary antioxidants neutralize free radicals one at a time. For example, one molecule of vitamin C kills one free radical. Then its job is over. While this may be helpful in reducing cellular damage, it is an inefficient process.
Why? Because your cells produce 300 sextillion free radicals daily. That’s 300 with 21 zeros behind it!
To neutralize that many free radicals, you would have to consume 375 oranges or 87 glasses of red wine or 120 vitamin C tablets (500mg)!

Flip the Switch!

A well-kept secret is the fact that your cells can produce their own antioxidant enzymes like glutathione (the master antioxidant and detoxifier). These enzymes neutralize free radicals at a rate of up to one million per second!
As you age, your production of these protective enzymes diminishes, making you more vulnerable to disease.
The combination of 5 natural ingredients in Protandim wake up your sleeping cells by activating a protein called NRF2, which sends a message to your genes to produce more antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fibrotic enzymes.
How important is NRF2 activation? Well, according to renowned anti-aging expert Dr. Nicholas Perricone,
“Finding substances that can turn on the highly-protective transcription factor NRF2 holds the key to preventing a host of diseases.”
That’s exactly what Protandim does! It flips the switch on your good protective genes and turns off the bad age- and disease-accelerating genes.
After just 30 days, Protandim will reduce your oxidative stress by 40%, bringing your levels down to that of a 20-year-old!

Achieve Fit Camp

We have officially kicked off Achieve Fit Camp, a boot camp program for all fitness levels. Lance Overdorff is our boot camp manager and has started our first Achieve Fit Camp in the Lake Hefner area of Oklahoma City. This is an energetic, fun-filled program that will challenge even the most fit clients. All the workouts can be modified, however, to meet you were you're at.

Boot camps are a great way to kick your fitness into high gear. Boot campers experience a greater weight loss and a much better increase in fitness than those that just go to a gym to run on a treadmill and use the machines. Body weight exercises than involve multiple muscle groups have been proven to burn more calories and increase strength and endurance.
