What is Protandim?
The definition of Protandim has changed. When it was first formulated, it was considered by most to be an antioxidant supplement, although not a conventional one. But that is no longer an adequate description. Protandim is actually a Nrf2 activator in the nutrigenomics arena. Nutrigenomics is the science of how dietary components interact with the genome, or DNA, to regulate gene expression. Nutrigenomics studies how the things we eat affect our genes. Nrf2 is one of the key proteins in the body and regulates approximately 500 of the 25,000 genes in the body. Think of every gene as having a “dimmer switch.” Nrf2 is the protein that can reach the dimmer switch. Protandim helps your body balance and regulate its 25,000 genes by “turning some up” or “turning some down!” It isn’t simply the most unique antioxidant supplement on the market, it’s a Nrf2 activator.
