About Lifeline Therapeutics

Lifeline Therapeutics, Inc. markets Protandim®, a patent-pending dietary supplement that increases the body's natural antioxidant protection.  Lifeline Therapeutics is committed to helping people achieve health and wellness for life.  For more information, please visit the Protandim® product website at http://www.protandim.com.

Oxidative stress (cell damage caused by free radicals) occurs as a person ages or is subjected to stresses such as certain illnesses.  TBARS are harmful, reactive substances that indicate the level of oxidative stress in the body.  New data from a scientific study in men and women show that after 30 days of taking Protandim®, the level of circulating TBARS decreased an average of 40 percent, and the age-related increase in TBARS was eliminated.  Protandim® strengthens a person's defenses against oxidative stress by increasing the body's natural activity of antioxidant enzymes.
