They are proponents of natural ways of staying healthy!

2 keys to health are found in Your Body’s way of Healing itself! How does it do that?

  1. Nrf2 Modulation: This involves enhancing the cell's antioxidant defense mechanisms by activating the Nrf2 pathway. It is a targeted approach to bolster the cell's ability to handle oxidative stress and prevent damage caused by excessive ROS.

  2. Redox Signaling Molecules: This refers to the broader role of certain molecules in cell signaling and communication. These molecules transmit information that regulates various cellular processes beyond just antioxidant defense, including growth, immune responses, and cell death.

    In summary, Nrf2 modulation is a specific strategy to enhance antioxidant defenses, while redox signaling molecules encompass a wider range of cellular signaling processes involving reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. Both concepts are related to maintaining cellular health and function, and they can interact in complex ways within the cellular environment.
