A team of researchers led by prominent dermatologist Dr. Kimberly
Stone, will study the anti-aging impact of Protandim®,
combined with LP Derma Complex, to rejuvenate skin at the cellular level
and significantly fight the signs of aging naturally
A new "Super-Antioxidant"
study hopes to prove that the fountain of youth is on the horizon,
thanks to advances in anti-aging that are attributed to regenerating
skin at the cellular level. A team of researchers, led by Dr. Kimberly
Stone, M.D., a leading Denver-based board certified dermatologist, are
studying a blend of Protandim®
(which has been clinically proven to slow the progressive rate of aging www.protandim.com)
and LP Derma Complex (shown to effectively reduce the appearance of
wrinkles and other effects of aging upon the skin) to determine if a
topical cream made of these combined ingredients will play a pivotal
role in providing proven methods to age gracefully.
"Early indications show that the combined
formulation of Protandim with LP
Derma Complex may further accelerate the skin's
innate ability to rejuvenate itself. This important study will use a
state-of-the-art digital imaging assessment system to study the effects
of this promising discovery. Images taken of the study group's
skin will be analyzed in a quantifiable way to measure marked
improvement of fine lines and wrinkles, age spots and hyperpigmentation,
pore size, skin texture and UV damage after being treated with the
formula (the cream developed by combining Protandim
and LP Derma Complex). In addition, others scientific instruments will
be utilized to measure skin moisture and elasticity. The results of the
study will be available later this year,"
said David Brown, CEO and President of LifeVantage,
the maker of Protandim.
"We believe the study will show that this
exciting new anti-aging formula is a break-through system that provides
the skin with greater hydration, better penetration, increased
production of antioxidant enzymes and a protective shield to slow down
the aging effects from the environment,"
added Brown.
Kimberly Stone, M.D. and board certified dermatologist explains, "Researchers
and scientists agree that aging is the result of cellular deterioration
caused by rogue molecules known as free radicals. It is impossible to
avoid free radicals because the food you eat and the air you breathe, as
well as stress or even vigorous exercise, can stimulate cells to produce
destructive free radicals in staggering numbers."
Dr. Stone continued, "With each year, a person's
body becomes less effective at fighting free radicals. It's
a vicious cycle, programmed into genes, which results in aging, disease
and eventually death. A person's body fights
free radicals by producing its own antioxidant enzymes. But as we grow
older, our bodies produce more free radicals and less of these special
antioxidants to fight the battle of aging."
According to Dr. Brooks Hybertson, a foremost authority on aging and
antioxidants, as well as a member of the LifeVantage
scientific advisory board, "The goal behind
the marriage of Protandim and LP
Derma is to further boost the body's own
production of antioxidant enzymes at the cellular level with enough
neutralizing capacity to eliminate the age-related increase in free
radical damage." "The science and clinical proof behind Protandim
is impressive, as this is not a conventional antioxidant supplement.
Each Protandim caplet contains a unique combination of phytonutrients
that signal the body's genes to produce its
own antioxidant enzymes which provide thousands of times more
antioxidant power than any food or conventional antioxidant supplement,"
added Dr. Hybertson. "The combination with LP
Derma Complex provides hydration, protection and skin permeation of the
active ingredients, making it highly compelling for study of its use as
an innovative and topical skin care solution." About Protandim®
Protandim® is a unique approach to fighting
the effects of cell-damaging free radical molecules which advance the
aging process, including many of the diseases of aging. The patented
dietary supplement increases the body's natural antioxidant protection
by inducing the cells of the body to produce naturally occurring
protective antioxidant enzymes, a process which is thousands of times
more effective than traditional vitamin-mineral supplements. Free
radical damage occurs when a person is subjected to environmental
stresses and generally increases with age. Data from a peer-reviewed
scientific study in men and women, sponsored by LifeVantage, shows that
after 30 days of taking Protandim®, the level
of circulating toxins produced by free radicals decreased an average of
40 percent, slowing the progressive aging factors to the level of a 20
year old. With continued use, the decrease was maintained at 120 days.
