Why are adaptogens and antioxidants essential to human health?
When under stress, the body reacts by producing adrenaline which puts the whole body on a state of alert. The metabolism, blood pressure and circulation are disrupted; immunity and resistance are drastically reduced; performance suffers. In short, stress undermines health and destroys well-being. Oxidation of human cells appears to play a critical role in processes of aging and many degenerative diseases. Oxidation is caused by free radicals that are generated by body functions and lifestyle. Antioxidants can decrease oxidation by neutralizing free radicals. This can result in a slower aging process. Point4 antioxidants are free radical scavengers and they are effective in the aqueous parts of human body. It can possibly recycle vitamin E. In practice this means that it enhances the effect of vitamin E also present in Point4.
