How to protect your body


How to protect your body from the outside influences.

In the present day world, outside influences are accelerated by the production of the free radicals. The main influences among them are pesticides, solvents, radiation, pollution, drycleaners, aerosol sprays, air conditioners, car exhaust fumes, emotional or physical trauma or stress, excessive alcohol intake, cigarette smoke, infection, illness, fault protein digestion, rancid, hydrogenated and heated fats, tainted and spoiled foods, chemicals in food, ultra-violet rays and ozone. Apart from these facts, human beings eat less natural foods that are essential to protect them from various diseases.

Our body gets the necessary protection from the naturally occurring elements, derived directly from diet, or indirectly from the dietary sources. Some enzymes like Glutathione peroxidase, Superoxide dismutase (SOD), and Vitamin A, Vitamin C and Vitamin E, Minerals like Selenium and Zinc, Amino acids like Cysteine, Arginine, Taurine and Glutamine are the important dietary sources that make our body healthy and strong. There is a requirement of adequate and sufficient supplies of nutrients by the body before making the enzymes more effective.

The scavenging function of enzymes gets reduced when there is no adequate quantity of these nutrients. Asthaxanthin, the red carotenoid of OGI’s line of products supplies you the necessary nutrients naturally and you can make use of them to lead a healthy and energetic life. The tall claims made by other marine products cannot be taken seriously as they are made of a mixture of synthetic and marine products. The artificial substances present in those products may not give you the desired result.
