Question 1

What's the difference between Life Vantage Protandim nfr2 and this?

Accepted Answer

Ace, Thank you for your question. First, rest assured both formulas are great. The biggest differences between the two are the business model (Protandim is an MLM), as well as the quality of ingredients - Nrf2 Boost is Pharmaceutical Grade.Our Nrf2 Boost was developed without having to keep costs down for profit of the resellers (Pure Therapeutics is a direct to consumer company). If you compare the ingredients, Nrf2 Boost contains all NRF-2 activating ingredients. The data on Brassica Sulforaphane, PteroPure Resveratrol and black pepper to drive 95% curcuminoids is all very strong and overall higher quality ingredients than Protandim. *see more detailed info on the ingredients below this message* The other thing to keep in mind - when patients are sick, quality of manufacturing is also very important. The Nrf2 Boost formula is made in an GMP certified and FDA inspected facility with pharmaceutical grade ingredients and manufacturing best practices. Lastly, our Nrf2 Boost is in capsules vs tablets like Protandim's which allows for better absorption.  Detailed info on the ingredients we use:1. Sulforaphane (SGS also knows as truebroc)- The healing properties of this substance was first discovered by researchers at John Hopkins University in 1992. A powerful antioxidant, it is derived from cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cabbage and cauliflower. Research indicates SGS aides in the prevention of oxidative stress, high blood pressure, stomach ulcers, macular degeneration and other major diseases. How? SGS encourages our bodies`s cells to produce phase 2 enzymes, which actively destroys free radicals, and eliminates waste.2. BioPerine® - Extracted from the black pepper fruit, which is found in the nutrient-rich soil regions of southern India, BioPerine, the patented form of Piperine, has proven to have many healthy benefits. Research has shown it has the ability to enhance the absorption of various supplements, increasing their productivity. Some studies also suggest BioPerine has immune-suppressing, tumor-inhibiting, and antidepressant properties.3. Turmeric Rhizome Extract - A perennial plant in the Ginger family, Turmeric Rhizome Extract has been a common ingredient in Chinese and ayurvedic medicine for centuries. Its active component is curcumin, which is believed to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. There are also some studies that suggest it may aide in the prevention of certain cancers, neurological and cardiovascular conditions.4. Green Tea Extract - Derived from green tea leaves, this extract is targeted for its antioxidant properties. For centuries, health providers have been promoting the use of green tea extract to fight free radicals in the body and show promising results in prevention of cancer, heart disease, diabetes and even obesity.5. pTeroPure (Pterostilbene) - which is closely related to Resveratrol, this stilbene compound is found in blueberries, grapes and in the bark of the Indian Kino Tree. For many centuries it has been uses in the practice of Ayurvedic medicine. As such they function similarly but not identical, instead they work together. This is particularly evident when studying the beneficial effects this compound has on gene expression. What is gene expression? It is based on the scientific process of changing the messages your genes transmit to your body, by turning on the protection genes and turning off the harmful genes. By doing so, Pterostilbene has proven to be a potent antioxidant with anti-oxidative stress, anti-hypercholesterolemia, anti-hypertriglyceridemia properties, as well as the ability to fight off and reverse cognitive decline.We hope this helps, if you have any other questions please let us know.In Good Health, Pure Therapeutics
