NuVet Plus takes on Free Radicals

What are free radicals? Free radicals are atoms or groups of atoms with an odd (unpaired) number of electrons and can be formed when oxygen interacts with certain molecules. Once formed these highly reactive radicals can start a chain reaction, just like dominoes tumbling down. Their chief danger comes from the damage they can do when they react with important cellular components such as DNA, or the cell membrane. Cells may function poorly or die if this occurs. To prevent free radical damage the body has a defense system of antioxidants. Today mainstream medicine and veterinarian medicine have become more aware of the harmful effects of free radicals, and doctors are suggesting that supplements should be taken daily.
The NuVet Labs™ research team started with the premise that even the most expensive pet food available is lacking in basic nutrients essential for proper cell support and longevity. It is a fact that some of the ingredients in most pet foods produce free radicals or unstable oxygen molecules which causes oxidation of the cells and subsequent mutation and death of the cells. This is another reason to feed your pet's a healthy pet food like Life's Abundance. Did you know that our pets' counterparts in the wild eat a much more balanced diet consisting of green vegetables, fruits, nuts and other nutrients that contain antioxidants that are required for the proper maintenance of health. Recent studies have shown free radicals to be implicated in the cause of more than 50 diseases including heart disease, various forms of cancer, cataracts, and premature aging. Free radicals are unstable oxygen molecules that, according to research, can hit each cell in the body 10,000 times each day. As these free radicals constantly hit the cell membrane, it starts to break down and become weak. This weakness will eventually lead to cell mutation or death of the cell. Thereby, attacking the healthy parts of the body and degrading the immune system.
Antioxidants are vitamins, minerals and enzymes that protect the body from the damaging effects of free radicals. Antioxidants, which have healing properties are found in certain vitamins and foods. The body manufactures a defense against free radicals in the form of antioxidants. However, there are more free radicals actively destroying the cell membrane than our body can defend against. This is where the powerful antioxidants in NuVet Plus step in to assist the natural defense mechanism of the bodies.
When NuVet Plus is introduced into the body, there is a boosting of the immune system and a decrease in the ravages of free radicals.
We can help our animals protect against free radicals by supplementing their diet with NuVet Plus, the product that is formulated to be the most powerful antioxidants available.
