DON’T TAKE ANTIOXIDANTS, MAKE ANTIOXIDANTS

Sunday, January 24th, 2016

You have the ability to MAKE antioxidants, by naturally activating your body’s Nrf2 pathway with superfoods and patented, clinically proven, herbal nutrigenomics.  Making antioxidants is 1,000,000x more powerful than taking traditional antioxidant supplements, such as vitamin A, C, E.

This workshop will give you the information you need to MAKE antioxidants, taken from years of research, providing simple changes to your diet and lifestyle.  Our goal is to improve your health and reduce the risk associated with chronic disease.

According to Dr. David Perlmutter, MD, Author of ‘The Better Brain’, ‘The Grain Brain’ and ‘Effortless Healing’…’It turns out that a variety of foods and patented nutrigenomics consisting of potent herbal ingredients, are powerful activators of the Nrf2 pathway.  These Nrf2 activating superfoods directly and dramatically amplify our body’s ability to produce anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrotic and detoxification protection by signaling our DNA, turning on over 200 ‘survival genes’.

According to the National Institute of Health (NIH), inflammation and oxidative stress, (which are treated by effectively making antioxidants) are at the root cause of over 200 diseases, including: Cancer, Heart Disease, Diabetes, Depression/Anxiety, Autoimmune Disorders, Alzheimer’s, Joint Pain & Arthritis, and many more.  Visit www.pubmed.gov, search ‘oxidative stress’ for more information.

Nrf2 activating superfoods will be sampled at this workshop.
