Protandim and anti-oxidant boosting

On NBC's Today Show, Protandim was touted. Found this old 2/2004 post, that had some information.

Lifeline Nutraceuticals and Protandim

<!--QuoteBegin--><TABLE cellSpacing=1 cellPadding=3 width="95%" align=center border=0><TBODY><TR><TD></TD></TR><TR><TD id=QUOTE><!--QuoteEBegin-->a company in Denver will launch a so-called “long life pill” that promises to not only make you live longer...make you feel younger. Lifeline Nutraceuticals: the pill is a scientific breakthrough. Is it a dream product or just a dream?



Three Denver businessmen say they have unraveled one of the biggest mysteries behind growing old. All it takes is one pill a day... but you will also feel like a teenager all over again.

"It restores your system to its peak efficiency; something akin to when you were 18 years old,” Bill Driscoll...the businessmen say they have the science to back it.

"We have decades of scientific experience that we can draw upon - that's where our credibility comes from,” added Paul Myhill, Lifeline...pill was developed by Ceremedix, a pharmaceutical company in Massachusetts.

Protandim increases body’s production of three enzymes: Superoxide Dismutase, Catalase and Glutathion Peroxidase.

...supposed to prevent gradual loss of antioxidants, which battle free radicals. Free radicals are what cause oxidative stress on cells, making rust like metal or brown like a cut apple.

...will slow wrinkling and probably even reverse it.

"I don't think there's any single pill at this time that has the proof behind it that would lead one to believe that it would increase lifespan to 120 years in all individuals,” Dr. John Repine, Webb Warning Institute. "...that we can recommend that without saying there'd be some side effects that might be unwanted and unrecognized at this time."

Dr. Repine says it's potentially dangerous to interfere with the body’s natural balance...until someone takes Protandim and actually lives to 120 years without harmful effects, the only sure way to beat the age game is to eat, sleep and live healthy.

Protandim in final round of clinical trials this month, then Lifeline Nutraceuticals to put Protandim on store shelves by July. ...marketed as supplement and not a drug, so the FDA standards aren't as strict.<!--QuoteEnd-->

Hi Vicki,

This looks interesting for after treatment, but I thought potent antioxidants help protect cancer cells as well as normal cells. Any thoughts on this?

Have a great day!
