Healthy Lungs
Pause, inhale deeply, now exhale. Your lungs, tirelessly, repeat this process 20,000 times each day. But have you ever pondered the freshness of the air you breathe? Surprisingly, the air you inhale is often laden with pollutants such as sulfur dioxides, carbon monoxides, volatile organic compounds, and particulates.
Many of these pollutants serve as sources of free radicals, molecular fragments with unpaired electrons. These fragments, highly charged and unstable, react by breaking up molecules in your body, including cell membranes, proteins, and DNA. This fragmentation leads to the generation of new free radicals, initiating a chain reaction of molecular disruption.
As you breathe in, the air fills millions of tiny sacs called alveoli, totaling around 100 square meters of surface area. Consequently, you expose yourself to a significant amount of free radicals. When these alveoli suffer damage, oxygen delivery to your blood diminishes, making breathing notably more challenging.
Interestingly, even oxygen can generate free radicals. Given that breathing is essential, escaping this damage proves difficult.
One strategy to safeguard yourself, without resorting to masks, is to supplement with antioxidants—molecules capable of neutralizing free radicals and halting their chain reactions.
This is the principle behind CanPrev’s Healthy Lungs, an advanced formula rich in antioxidants designed to combat and repair cellular damage induced by exposure to smoking, environmental pollutants, or intense exercise. It incorporates antioxidants to counteract these free radicals and uphold overall health.
Shield your delicate lung tissue against cellular damage from free radicals with the potent antioxidants found in Healthy Lungs.
