Let Us Help Restore Your Balance<P>
The human body utilizes a complex network of antioxidants composed of several players that work together as a team. The intent is to build a well-balanced reserve of antioxidants as part of a good diet. The goal is to strike a balance between optimal body pH and the protective effects of antioxidants, for it is only when the body's pH is slightly alkaline, that it can properly defend itself against the destruction by free radicals, fully utilize oxygen and generate cell energy in the form of ATP.
Free Radicals - How They Damage Your Cells<P>


If you could view the microscopic world of your body at the cellular level, you would witness your cells under attack from free radicals - the by-products of metabolism. Free radicals are electrically charged molecules that attack your cells, tearing through cell membranes, creating havoc with nucleic acids (genetic material), proteins and enzymes inside the cell. These attacks by free radicals known as oxidative stress, are capable of causing cells to lose their structure, their function and eventually disabling or killing the cell. Unless we take the necessary steps to help counteract the unrelenting damage from free radicals, we take the risk of allowing damage to joints, organs and systems that for example, compromise our cardiovascular health and accelerate aging in general. Morganics Super 50+ is a powerful group of antioxidants that are well-known for their ability to protect our cells.<P>

Essential dietary antioxidants such as those found in COQ-10 greatly contribute to the body's antioxidant reserve, but we might also appreciate the antioxidant enzymes, produced at the cell that contribute to the body's team of antioxidants. These players are known as SOD or Superoxide Dismutase. SOD is effective in neutralizing free radicals before they damage cell membranes but once again, only if the medium in which they are to operate is favorable. This medium is the interstitial fluid and its delicate pH balance determines the effective potential of antioxidants.<P>

Activity of thousands of cellular enzymes is profoundly influenced by small changes in pH, and maintenance of normal metabolic activity therefore requires that the pH of body fluids be closely regulated. The pH of arterial blood is ordinarily maintained within a narrow range of 7.35
to 7.45 and deviation much outside this range is indicative of a potentially life-threatening metabolic disturbance. pH has a direct influence on the intra and extra-cellular environment upon which enzymatic metabolism and cell function depend. The blood pH however important and rigorously controlled, is of less consequence than the pH of the intracellular fluid where conditions for enzymatic functions need to be meticulously protected.<P>

Maintenance of an alkaline pH in the blood is accomplished by the buffering systems of the blood itself, by respiratory exchange in the lungs involving regulation of carbonic acid and by regulation of the bicarbonate ion by the kidneys. Kidney tubules, by excreting many or few hydrogen ions, in exchange for reabsorbing many or few sodium ions, control urine pH and thereby help control blood pH.<P>

In sumary, it is important to maintain adequate levels of enzymes and alkaline ash minerals such as those found in our Feel good digedtion will help  pH regulation of interstitial fluid and all cells resulting in:
optimal cell energy (production and replenishment of ATP reserves)
maximum cell protection by antioxidants such as those in coq10<P>

Reflections of how well the lungs and kidneys are doing their job of acid / base (alkaline) regulation, can be assessed by routine saliva and urine pH tests. This can be easily done using litmus paper, in the privacy of your home.  Check your local drug store for litmus paper.<P>
