In a country with some of the most advanced science in the world, we also face some of the highest disease rates. The old paradigm of treating symptoms is no longer cutting it, and a population of natural health hunters is emerging. As new bodily mechanisms are being discovered and understood, our notion of healthcare is transforming as well. Concepts like “redox” are proving to be profound in addressing the root cause of illness and supporting health and longevity. In this article we will explore redox science, and how you can use redox signaling molecules to transform your health for the better.
Throughout this article you’ll find short videos that will provide an easy to follow explanation of this new and exciting science without getting lost in scientific lingo.
Modern Healthcare: It’s Time for Change
Our modern healthcare system is notorious for prescribing pharmaceutical medications to manage the symptoms of the disease. In doing so, we aren't addressing the root cause. These drugs come with a host of side effects, which are then “treated” with more pharmaceuticals. This catch 22 can continue on indefinitely without ever truly healing the individual. Treating the root causes of a disease requires a much more profound understanding of our natural human biology. One such discovery is that of redox, a signaling process that is involved with a wide range of biological processes from inflammation to cancer. By harnessing the wisdom of redox science, we can start to address the root causes of modern disease, and give the body the building blocks it needs to heal itself.
The Science behind Redox
What is redox? Redox refers to the loss or gain of electrons throuh reduction and oxidation. Redoxsignaling occurs when specific molecules like free radicals, reactive oxygen species, and other compounds influence the body and are like a warning sign that cells give one another. These signals allow cells to detect damage, protect themselves, and repair or replace injured cells.
Redox molecules are made by mitochondria using the solution that they themselves exist in-- saline. Indeed, your cells contain saltwater, and your mitochondria use this sodium, chloride, hydrogen, and oxygen solution to generate redox signaling molecules. These highly reactive molecules then go to work or are converted back into salt water to be used again at a later date.
Redox Signaling Molecules and Cell Signaling
The body’s cells are like factories that generate fuel, or ATP, to power the body. ATP is created by the mitochondria within the cells, and these mitochondria are also responsible for intracellular communication. Cell signaling is vital for health because it ensures things like immune function, tissue repair, cell development, hormone operations, and essentially every single bodily process.
Inside the cell, mitochondria create these redox signaling molecules which enable communication between one another. Redox signals are like the language of cells, without them there would be no life as we know it. In fact, when our cells fail to communicate clearly with one another, autoimmune conditions become much more likely. Cells fail to distinguish between good and bad cells-- the body accidentally begins to attack itself.
Redox Signaling Molecules and Age
These redox signaling molecules are made by the trillions daily by mitochondria inside of the cell, but these numbers start to drop
significantly with age. This is due partially to the fact that our mitochondria lessen with age. They die off naturally, and this happens faster with trauma (injury) and due to toxicity. The irony here, of course, is that those with the least amount of mitochondria due to illness and toxicity, are the ones who need them most. We progressively have fewer mitochondria to make the redox signaling molecules. Therefore, the mitochondria that we do have work much less efficiently as we grow older.
On average, there is a 10% reduction in mitochondria and redox molecules per decade once someone has gone through puberty. This number is staggering and highlights the importance of optimizing redox potential as soon as possible.
Less redox signaling molecules = less communication between cells = longer periods to repair tissues and cells, and longer periods of immune recovery.
Higher Redox Potential, Better Health
Ultimately, the higher your redox potential, the healthier you will be. Redox potential is a strong indicator not only of health but also of longevity. This mechanism influences such a wide range of bodily functions.
A high redox potential enables your body to heal damaged cells and create new ones, and it also plays a role in supporting your natural detoxification pathways as well as your immune function. Redox signaling molecules help your body to clear out toxins like heavy metals and BPA’s. Redox signaling also supports your immune system to fight off any exposure to pathogens, bacteria, and viruses. It’s the ultimate player for healing as well as preventative healthcare.
Good health is a balancing act between avoiding exposure to harmful elements while also being strong enough to overcome the exposures that we inevitably come in contact with. Even if you’re living in a pristine forest away from any modern pollution or toxins. Your body will require redox signaling molecules anytime you get injured or sick. As we age, these molecules become less available. Taking actions to boost your redox potential becomes especially important as you get older.
Being mindful of redox potential is an integral part of living a healthy lifestyle. Support your mitochondria at the cellular level by boosting its redox potential. This will magnify all the other efforts you make when it comes to a healthy diet, exercise, and rest. Give your body the building blocks to build these redox signaling molecules. Your mitochondria can continue to generate them, and support your health today and for years to come.
Boost Redox Potential with ASEA
Redox Signal Molecules are made inside your cells and are foundational to ALL cellular health. But your body begins to make less of these vital molecules as you are exposed to toxins, mental and physical stresses, and health challenges. In fact, even if we lived in a perfectly pristine, stress-free world, the simple act of aging past 20 decreases your body’s ability to make these molecules by approximately 10% every decade.
Science said there was nothing you could do about it – until now!
The discovery of these amazing molecules and the ability to stabilize them in a solution you can take daily, is truly a major scientific breakthrough of the 21st century.
ASEA Redox is the ONLY supplement in the world to contain stabilized Redox Signaling Molecules. After almost two decades, millions of dollars ofresearch and multiple patents, the scientists behind ASEA achieved what the scientific community said was impossible!
Starting with nothing more than salt and water (similar to what is found inside your cells) and passing it through a complex three-day process, ASEA creates stabilized Redox Signaling Molecules outside of the body. There are only two places where you can find these vital molecules – inside every living organism and inside a bottle of ASEA.
