According to Dr. Richard Cutler : “ The amount of
antioxidants that you maintain in your body is directly proportional to how
long you will live.” (Dr. Richard Cutler
is Anti-Aging Research Department Director National Institute of Health (NIH) At these modern times, many people realized the significance of antioxidants in our body’s optimum health defence against free radicals. Science has known that Free radicals can damage cells, and may play a role in aging, many chronic diseases, including heart disease, stroke, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, cataracts, and other diseases and the dreading disease CANCER. Antioxidants are found abundant in beans, grain products, fruits and vegetables. Yet, Japan Food Standardized Ingredients List stated that nowadays natural foods lose most of the nutrients due to environmental factors, soil destruction, and addictive processing. For examples: amounts of Vit. C in 100g of Spinach. 1950 – 150mg, 1963 – 100mg, 1982 – 63mg, 1994 – 13mg.
Dr. Lester Packer stated that it is very difficult for us to
take all the essential nutrients through our daily diet alone. ( Dr. Lester Packer is the father of
antioxidant and the world’s foremost antioxidant researcher.) A publication
in the Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA) released in June 2002
stated: “Therefore, supplementation is
necessary. Besides, knowing our Body Antioxidant Index can determine the state
of our health, that allows us to regulate our diet, lifestyle and
supplementation.”
Thus, there is avalanche of antioxidant-rich foods and
antioxidant-rich dietary supplements. But how can we validate if the food
supplements we’re taking are working and can effectively increase our
antioxidants in our body or simply an expensive junk that pass into our urine?
How can we know also if the fruits and vegetables in our diet are more than enough
to maintain our anti-oxidants for our body’s defence mechanism?
The ability to Measure is the basis of Science.
Today, there is another
breakthrough in Science that revolutionizes the health care system, the Biophotonic scanner. The Biophotonic
scanner is invented by University
of Utah
This Biophotonic scanner is the world’s first non-invasive
tool that effectively measures the level of antioxidant inside your skin.
Simply placing your hand in front of a low energy blue laser light, you can
measure your skin carotenoid level and obtain your Skin Carotenoid Score.
Carotenoids are powerful antioxidants that found in fruits and vegetables. The
Measurement of skin carotenoid levels by the Biophotonic scanner is a
conventional and useful indication of carotenoid concentrations and provides an
accurate and reliable biomarker of your body’s overall antioxidants status –
SCS color zones help you determine whether you are consuming adequate amount of
antioxidant containing nutrients. Unlike other biomarkers, SCS does not predict
or diagnose disease. Biophotonic scanner was featured in Dr. Oz Medical Show in tv.
