Advanced Antioxidant Formula, Solgar, 120’s

More on Advanced Antioxidant Formula:

Environmental toxins, physical and emotional stress, lack of sleep, bad diet and more are all major promoters of free radicals. Free radicals or reactive oxygen species (ROS) have the potential to alter and destroy lipids, proteins and DNA. Because of this, it is important to intake a good amount of antioxidants. So, if you can not get them from your  diet, or you need more for health problems, I will recommend to supplement with.

Advanced Antioxidant Formula Ingredients: Vitamin C (as calcium L-Ascorbate), Vitamin E (as D-alpha tocopheryl acid succinate), L-Cysteine (as HCI).

Study:

If you are interested in reading a study on the link between liposomal vitamin C and cancer treatment, click HERE. This is from that study: “Antioxidants are known to minimize oxidative stress. They do it by interacting with free radicals produced as a result of cell aerobic reactions. Oxidative stress has long been linked to many diseases, especially tumours. Therefore, antioxidants play a crucial role in the prevention or management of free radical-related diseases. However, most of these antioxidants have anticancer effects only if taken in large doses. Others show inadequate bioavailability due to their instability in the blood or having a hydrophilic nature that limits their permeation through the cell membrane.

Therefore, entrapping antioxidants in liposomes may overcome these drawbacks. Because liposomes have the capability to accommodate both hydrophilic and hydrophobic compounds with a considerable stability. Additionally, liposomes have the capability to accumulate at the cancer tissue passively, due to their small sizes, with enhanced drug delivery. Additionally, liposomes can be engineered with targeting moieties to increase the delivery of chemotherapeutic agents to specific tumour cells with decreased accumulation in healthy tissues. Therefore, combined use of liposomes and antioxidants, with or without chemotherapeutic agents, is an attractive strategy to combat varies tumours. “
