oxidative stress

Antioxidants are good for you…that’s all you need to know right? WRONG! This episode looks into the research behind antioxidants. What are Antioxidants? Where do Antioxidants come from? How do Antioxidants work? And is it possible the Antioxidants could be bad for you? 

To check out the Video Version: 

We are also investigating related molecules like free radicals, reactive oxygen species and processes like oxidative stress and disease formation. 

Hopefully by the end of this episode you better understand the science behind antioxidants and why maintaining a balance of oxidants and antioxidants is crucial to good health. This can be achieved through a healthy and varied diet, protection from certain health hazards and not from simply taking a pill every day.

Kicking off Season 2 of the Believe Big podcast, Ivelisse interviews Dr. Lindsay Adrian, an integrative physician specializing in cancer care and chronic conditions. 

This episode is PACKED with practical examples and clearly articulated information about glutathione, sometimes hailed as the body's ultimate defense against free radicals and oxidative stress.  

Dr. Adrian sheds light on 

• the significance of glutathione, especially for those navigating a cancer diagnosis,
• glutathione as a crucial amino acid that acts as a master antioxidant in the body,
• the importance of glutathione for healthy mitochondrial function, 
• and how glutathione aids in detoxification.

The discussion highlights key cautions, emphasizing that glutathione should be judiciously integrated, particularly avoiding overlap with conventional treatments to prevent potential interference.  Dr. Adrian underscores the seriousness of working with an integrative practitioner who understands when and how to incorporate glutathione in a patient's treatment plan.

Cardiovascular disease is the world’s leading cause of death. Despite significant advances in its diagnosis, robust treatment remains elusive.

US-based cardiovascular specialists Dr Bradley Bale and Dr Amy Doneen have developed a simple, holistic, and effective method to cure cardiovascular disease. The BaleDoneen Method® targets one of its biggest contributing factors: oxidative stress.

In this episode of The Modern Vital Podcast, Dr. Ben Reebs discusses the role of glutathione as the body's master antioxidant and its various forms. Glutathione is known for its ability to neutralize harmful free radicals and regenerate other antioxidants in the body, reducing oxidative damage and contributing to overall cellular protection. The mitochondria, where oxygen is consumed the most, generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), and glutathione plays a crucial role in protecting and neutralizing them. The podcast explores different forms of glutathione, highlighting the benefits of acetylglutathione, which is metabolically efficient and can cross the blood-brain barrier.

The episode emphasizes three main roles of glutathione in the body. Firstly, it reduces oxidative stress by neutralizing free radicals and regenerating antioxidants. Secondly, it enhances metabolic detoxification by binding to harmful substances and making them more easily excreted. Glutathione also supports the immune system by regulating immune cell function, preventing excessive cell death, and modulating the production of proinflammatory cytokines. The episode also mentions that N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is a precursor to glutathione but warns about potential oxidative stress caused by certain genetic variants when excessively converting NAC. It concludes by recommending the acetylglutathione supplement from Modern Vital for detoxification support and improved antioxidant status.

Two amazing natural remedies! First Jared and Cheryl discuss the history and uses of OPC’s from grape seed extract. You will learn about oxidative stress, polyphenols and how to use this powerful antioxidant in the most effective way possible. Next you will learn all about boswellia, which comes from the same tree as frankincense oil. They discuss the truly unique ability of boswellia extract to reduce 5-LOX in ways that drugs and other herbs simply cannot. 5-LOX is the pathway of inflammation in the gut and respiratory system. This centuries old Ayervedic remedy has modern human research proving its efficacy in balancing inflammation in these areas and more.

In this episode of The Modern Vital Podcast, the focus is on the mTOR pathway, a crucial protein complex responsible for regulating cell growth, metabolism, and survival in response to various environmental signals. The discussion highlights that mTOR is both activated and inhibited by exercise and plays a key role in extending our lifespan and health span. The pathway is involved in various diseases, such as cancer, metabolic disorders like type 2 diabetes, and neurological disorders.

The connection between insulin resistance and mTOR is explored, with the idea that mTOR activity can be modulated by diet, lifestyle, and environment. Caloric restriction and exercise, particularly high-intensity interval training, have been shown to impact mTOR activity. Additionally, supporting our mitochondria through nutrients can also support the mTOR pathway. Insulin resistance, which is the main factor in many diseases, can impair mTOR signaling and lead to problems like sarcopenia.

Lastly, the podcast suggests ways to activate the mTOR pathway, emphasizing the need for the right balance of activation. Resistance training, adequate protein intake, sun exposure, and mitochondrial support through supplements can all contribute to mTOR optimization. The conclusion stresses the importance of optimizing the mTOR pathway daily to support longevity and overall health.

In a study led by South Dakota State University, researchers evaluated the effects of rumen-protected methionine (Smartamine® M) on lactation performance and liver glutathione of lactating dairy cows during a subclinical mastitis challenge.

Cows either received a control diet or one supplemented with 0.09% rumen-protected methionine, and mastitis was induced in one quarter of each mammary gland.

There was a trend for greater milk yield after subclinical mastitis in cows supplemented with rumen protected methionine compared to controls. Milk protein percent was higher in Smartamine® M (+0.19% units) before the challenge and was maintained post challenge. The milk fat percent for Smartamine® M increased by 0.43% immediately post challenge. No differences were observed in energy metabolites or dry matter intake. There were also greater liver glutathione levels in supplemented cows. These results show that methionine supplementation during subclinical mastitis may positively affect milk performance and increase liver glutathione in lactating dairy cows.

A second abstract examined inflammation and immune response results of the cows in this trial, showing that methionine supplementation during a subclinical mastitis challenge may control inflammation and oxidative stress while potentially increasing immune cell capabilities through enhanced cellular protein synthesis.

Based on 2022 American Dairy Science Association (ADSA) abstracts: 

1224 Rumen-protected methionine supplementation improves oxidative status and lactation performance during a subclinical mastitis challenge in lactating dairy cows.

1223 Rumen-protected methionine supplementation during subclinical mastitis challenge benefit dairy cow inflammation and immune cell mTOR pathway.
