Our health comes down to the health of our cells. They literally make up our entire bodies, so it makes sense that if they’re in good working condition, so are we. When our cells can’t do their job properly complications arise, and we experience the so-called side-effects of aging. The formula for aging, from this perspective, is mistakes over time – small mistakes your cells make that compound and snowball out of control. One such mistake is electron loss over time, but taking anti-oxidant supplements isn’t enough to fix this because of an associated problem – cellular ‘current’ loss. Let’s look at why this is the case and what we can do about it:

Electrons play a vital role in our cells to neutralize free radicals. As our cells produce energy, they also produce free radicals. Eating unhealthy foods (such as fried foods), breathing polluted air, drinking toxic water, extreme exercise and stress can also generate free radicals. Free radicals are molecules, atoms, or ions missing electrons in their outer orbits. This makes them highly reactive, and if they aren’t neutralized by an electron donor substance like an anti-oxidant, then they can wreak havoc in our cells – damaging DNA, causing cellular mutations, breaking down cellular function and potentially leading to cancer. Our cells experience electron loss on an ongoing basis, so it’s just as vital to keep on replenishing those electrons.

To fix this problem, why not just eat electron-donor foods such as fruits and vegetables high in anti-oxidants, maybe take a few anti-oxidant supplements? Yes, diet can help, but generally, as we get older, nutritious meals fail to vitalize us in the same way they did when we were younger. The body can no longer utilize the nutrients as efficiently. The problem is, that in order for your cells to be able to pull in the vital nutrients you’re consuming, they need to be sufficiently ‘charged,’ and cellular charge tends to get weaker as we get older.

A cell’s charge is formed by the osmotic pressure gradient from inside the cell to outside. The cell uses its sodium potassium pump to partly maintain this pressure gradient, keeping sodium ions out and potassium ions in. These two ions of electrons – sodium and potassium – are partly responsible for allowing electrons to move through your body and into your cells. If someone is depleted of electrolytes, you can give them all the nutrients in the world, but their body won’t be able to absorb them. Why? Their cells don’t have the electrical capacity to pull in the nutrients.

So cellular charge becomes the missing link to healthy aging. To reap the benefits of antioxidants, we must also strengthen the cell’s ability to draw them in. In order to address these two issues – cellular charge and electron loss over time – Life Health Secrets has designed Protein Extreme Energy and GSH-Ignite.  Protein Extreme Energy works primarily to increase cellular charge (though it also provides electron donors) and GSH-Ignite focuses on building your body’s natural supply of glutathione – an intracellular anti-oxidant hundreds of times more powerful than anything found in fruits, vegetables or most supplements. Together, Protein Extreme Energy and GSH-Ignite work to keep your cells charged and equipped to deal with free radicals.
