The Challenge
The most common and most dangerous risk factor for every disease that affects Americans is free radicals. These are responsible for shutting down your immune system and can cause unbelievable damage to your body.
But what are free radicals?
Chemicals, pollutants, radiation, cigarette smoke, etc., can create these free radicals—
unstable molecules that can attack cells, damage tissue and possibly lead to cancer.
So, what’s the solution? Antioxidants!
Antioxidants are the super fighters that protect cells from free radicals. If antioxidants are
unavailable or if free radicals are excessive, damage can occur. Vitamins A, C, and E are among the most powerful antioxidants.
And what combats swelling, tenderness, fever or pain?
Anti-inflammatory agents!
The same agents as are present in the Cleansing Salve.
