Whether you know it or not, your body is constantly being attacked by very harmful substances known as free radicals. You cannot see them, smell them or touch them, but they are always there, trying to destroy body proteins and cell membranes. Free radicals are dangerous and scientists believe that continuous exposure to them is the major cause of aging and of many degenerative diseases.Opts (Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins) are among today's most potent and promising free radical fighters. They are actually a family of antioxidants - found in grape seeds, red wine and the bark of French maritime pine tress - that are more powerful than vitamins C & E, long-held as gold-standard antioxidants. Opts' unique strength comes from the ability to recycle vitamin C, spare vitamin E from oxidation and extinguish a broader range of free radicals than most other antioxidants. Opts have been shown in scientific studies to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, cancer, diabetes, arthritis, memory loss and even erectile dysfunction. Although these diseases may seem unrelated, they all share the same undercurrent of inadequate antioxidant levels.This book explains how free radicals cause disease and provides an in-depth review of the myriad therapeutic benefits of this super-strength antioxidant in combating modern-day killer diseases and in protecting the body's billions of cells from head to toe.

Wellness is more than the absence of disease. It's a vital combination of vibrancy, vitality, abundant energy and extraordinary health. Even though many health-conscious people strive for good health by eating healthy foods, taking vitamins, exercising and leading a stress-free lifestyle, total wellness may still elude them. That's because, say authors Jørn Dyerberg and Richard Passwater, they are missing two essential wellness factors - omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA - that affect every cell, every tissue and every organ in the body. This deficiency, not yet officially recognised by the scientific and medical communities, is responsible for many modern-day illnesses, including heart disease, dementia, cancer and inflammatory diseases like arthritis. Replenishing the body with these missing factors has been shown to produce full performance, high energy and optimal health. While it's been known since Dr. Dyerberg's 1971 landmark study of the Inuit population in Greenland that EPA and DHA are needed to prevent heart attacks and promote healthy hearts, it's taken until the 21st century to learn that, by building healthier cell membranes, these fatty acids promote robust health throughout all systems in the body. They, also, help the brain by promoting life-long learning and positive mental functioning and by reducing inflammation, these omega-3s are, also, beneficial in treating all kinds of rheumatic and autoimmune disorders.More than 9,000 human studies after Dr. Dyerberg's groundbreaking research are showing the many critical contributions of omega-3 fatty acids to total health. To reduce the chance of dying a sudden death by 45 percent or a sudden cardiac death by 90 percent, heed the advice of Drs. Dyerberg and Passwater and begin taking the two missing wellness factors-EPA and DHA-now.
