What
is AOX/PLX? |
AOX/PLX
is an advanced antioxidant enzyme formula modified from an earlier formula
by Jim , Ph.D. in response to the Chernobyl nuclear accident in 1986.
As part of a U.S. delegation sent to Russia, Dr. successfully used
AOX/PLX in working with Russian children exposed to nuclear fallout. Not
only did it significantly lower cesium levels in his test group, it also
provided protection against the massive levels of pesticides present in
the Russian countryside. Furthermore, improvements in the children's attention
span were noted. This was all documented in a study released by the Belarus
Ministry of Health.
AOX/PLX
is manufactured from a proprietary blend of sprout extracts, prepared
under strictly controlled conditions (temperature, humidity, light, etc.),
and processed with minimal heat to ensure the bioactivity of its antioxidant
enzymes. Even the tableting of the caplets is performed using a slow,
low heat process. The result is a concentrated blend of glutathione peroxidase
(GP), superoxide dismutase (SOD), methionine reductase (MET), and
catalase
(CAT). The ability of AOX/PLX to significantly increase glutathione peroxidase
and SOD levels in humans has been independently confirmed by FDA approved
labs, indicating the viability and potency of the product. This is accomplished
both by direct absorption across the intestinal mucosa, and, perhaps even
more importantly, by stimulating the body's own internal production of
these antioxidant enzymes. This is particularly significant given that
big questions remain about how well glutathione, in its non-enzymatic
form, can be absorbed across the intestinal mucosa.
How does AOX/PLX
work?
The
antioxidant enzymes in AOX/PLX are powerful free radical scavengers. In
fact, these are the very enzymes that the body itself produces internally
to combat these damaging molecules, and to help liver detoxify a wide
array of toxins. Given that free radicals are implicated in just about
every degenerative disease (from arthritis to cardiovascular disease to
cancer), as well in the aging process itself, the potential applications
of AOX/PLX are very broad indeed. Below is a brief summary of the primary
activity of each of the constituent antioxidant enzymes.
SOD
(Superoxide Dismutase) provides the first line of defense against superoxide
and the oxygen radicals, which themselves are the initiators of the entire
free radical cascade, as such, it protects against the potentially negative
side effects of oxygen metabolism. Because superoxide degrades the synovial
fluid that lubricates the joints, SOD also helps to counteract inflammatory
joint diseases, such as arthritis, bursitis and gout.
GP
(Gluatathione Peroxidase) is also a key player in quenching free radical
activity (especially peroxides), in catalyzing the liver's detoxification
pathways, and in extending the lifespan of vitamin E (and, by extension,
vitamin C). Consisting of bioactive selenium bonded to the glutathione
tripeptide, glutathione peroxidase is particularly effective at protecting
the all-important cell membranes from lipid peroxidation.
MET
(Methaionine Reductase) is especially effective at removing the highly
toxic hydroxyl radicals, commonly associated with mercury and other heavy
metals, industrial pollution and radiation exposure. As these radicals
are also produced by strenuaous exercise, methionine reductase is also
useful in helping to improve athlete's recovery time.
CAT
(Catalase) works synergistically with SOD, removing the hydrogen peroxide
molecules that are byproducts of SOD activity, and protecting the cells
against damage.
Clinical Applications
AOX/PLX can be used
as a general maintenance product to modulate immune function, or therapeutically
in a wide range of conditions including allergies, inflammatory conditions,
mercury toxicity, convalescence, and as an adjunctive cancer treatment.
Given that we are all exposed to unprecedented levels of pollution, anyone
can benefit from its powerful antioxidant action.
