Free radicals are produced naturally as the normal by-products of digestion and respiration, but can also be the result of environmental exposure to pollutants, cigarette smoke, ultraviolet light and X-rays. Although a normal part of life, free radical damage has been associated with aging and numerous disease states.

How Defenze Can Help

Defenze contains a combination of potent antioxidant enzymes including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, and our exclusive protease Thera-blend™.

· SOD aids in neutralizing free radicals and is part of the ‘oxidative burst’ that immune cells release to destroy bacteria and viruses that have gained access to the cells of the body.

· Catalase is an extremely efficient enzyme that removes toxins from the body. Its primary function is to turn hydrogen peroxide (a free radical compound) into water and oxygen. One molecule of catalase can dismantle millions of hydrogen peroxide molecules each second.

· Protease has a long history of therapeutic use as a detoxifier that supports immune function.

Defenze also contains glutathione and alpha-lipoic acid (ALA). Glutathione is an antioxidant molecule formed in the liver. Its main functions are to assist in DNA repair, neutralize toxins, protect cells from free radicals, and boost immune function. Deficiencies of this nutrient are associated with aging and various disease states. ALA is an antioxidant that works inside and outside cells. It also regenerates other antioxidants like vitamin C and E.

Overall Immune Support

In addition to neutralizing free radicals, Defenze also assists the body in overall immune support. Defenze is the most potent antioxidant formula available on the market.
