THE POWERHOUSE OF ANTIOXIDANTS
With the health & skincare industry saturated with the hottest and newest trends, the power of antioxidants, the foundation and arguably the most effective means of dramatically improving the body, is being diluted. Most of us are aware that antioxidants benefit our health and our skin, but to some, antioxidants may seem like a thing of the past. However, antioxidants are not a trend or passing phase in fighting the aging process.
SESHA Active Ingredients
When taken alone, each of the five “powerhouse “ plays a significant role within the cell molecules. For example, vitamin E is excellent fighting heart-related diseases, oxidation from UV rays and various forms of cancer. Vitamin C enhances the immune system and helps the skin produce collagen and increases the turnover rate of the outer skin layer. The most remarkable phenomenon in the relationship between vitamins C & E is that vitamin C possesses the ability to recycle “used” vitamin E to extend the beneficial effects of a vitamin E molecule. In other words, after a vitamin E molecule engulfs a free radical and becomes a weak free radical itself, a vitamin C molecule can recharge the vitamin E back to its original antioxidant state.
The ability to recycle used molecules is applicable for all five networking antioxidants. For instance, adding glutathione, an antioxidant that restores vitamin C and is an excellent antioxidant for detoxification and anti-inflammatory effect. Of the five networking antioxidants, alpha-lipoic acid, in particular, is considered to be a superior antioxidant because of its solubility in both water and oil. Because water and oil do not mix, most antioxidants can only function in either the core of a cell, which is composed mainly of water or the surrounding fatty oil-based membrane. However, the unique dual solubility of alpha-lipoic acid allows it to work throughout the entire cell – in both the core and membrane of the cell. This duality also gives alpha-lipoic acid the ability to regenerate all five of the networking antioxidants, including itself.
