Red Castle Defense Body.

Red Castle Defense Body.

Remember Independence Day? The film, starring Will Smith tells about an alien invasion that would destroy human beings on earth. In fact do not need to alien forces to attack humans. Every day free radical substances lurk health of millions of people. Antioxidants contained in a powerful red fruit dispel dangerous substances.

Empirical experience of the Papua population provides strong evidence that the red fruit is very good for improving stamina. That's thanks to the active role of antioxidant-beta-carotene, tocopherol, and vitamin C contained in Pandanus conoideus. Source of antioxidants is not exclusively the monopoly of red fruit. Antioxidants can also be obtained through daily consumption of fruits and vegetables. However, the antioxidant content of red fruit is more superior than the fruits and vegetables.

Red fruits contain beta-carotene three times higher than the carrot. In fact, the carrot is a vegetable with the highest levels of beta-carotene. Pandanaceae family members also contain alpha-tocopherol of about 12-25 times higher than the avocado and spinach are highest content of alpha-tokoferolnya in groups of fruits and vegetables. Addition of vitamins in 100% red fruit can be absorbed by the body. Compare with vitamins from fruits and vegetables that only 40%.

Free radicals
That's good news for Aryo, researchers in government agencies who suffer from chronic cough. The intensity of the cough is worse at night the day, so disturbing the break. The 34-year-old man who always intersect with chemicals that doctors have diagnosed lung problems due to exposure to substances senobiotik (foreign) dangerous. By a doctor he was given cough medicine that directly suppress it. However, once the medicine runs out, the cough returned relapse.

Aryo finally try to consume some type of herbal medicine which he bought from sinse. Three-quarter money, the cough remained stubborn. That's when a friend suggested to eat the red fruit oil. After 10 days of consumption, the cough gradually subsided. Now he is free from the suffering that was annoying.

Aryo addition, many professions are vulnerable to exposure to substances senobiotik. For example, factory workers, hospital employees, pharmacists, miners, mechanics, and traffic officers. They are familiar with various forms of hazardous substances senobiotik, triggers a variety of degenerative diseases such as cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. Foreign substances can be hazardous chemicals, air pollution, and exposure to pathogenic microorganisms-bacteria, fungi, and viruses.

Senobiotik harmful substances that accumulate and lodged in the body making the body's cells experiencing oxidative stress. As a result, the immune system decline and vulnerable to disease. Efforts to minimize the risk of exposure to free radicals was not done. Starting from the use of protective masks, reducing and avoiding sources of pollution, to the consumption of fresh milk detoxifying the body.

However, these efforts are less effective. The proof, the case workers who are sick due to poor working environment are still emerging. In 2006 the World Health Organization (WHO) reported 12-million people per year die from chronic lung disease. The fact that once sat with chronic lung disease as a rank-6 deaths due to environmental factors.

Free radicals are reactive oxygen compounds that can attack and damage lipids, proteins and DNA. Many scientific research indicates oxidative damage from free radicals have a role in the pathogenesis of degenerative diseases. Among cancers, diabetes, heart problems, high blood pressure, stroke, lung, periodontitis (inflammation of the connective tissue supporting the tooth root), the accelerated process of aging, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease (progressive neurological degenerative disorders) to overshadow workers.

Antioxidants
Particular organ in our body more susceptible to oxidative damage than other organs. For example, the brain is very sensitive to oxidative damage because kandunganasam-fatty acids are easily oxidized very high, the use of oxygen in large quantities, and low levels of antioxidants. Many of the scientific research that indicates these diseases can be prevented and even treated with antioxidants. That explains why the red fruit is rich in antioxidants-tocopherol (vitamin E), beta-carotene (pro-vitamin A), and vitamin C can help boost immunity.

Handoko et al Yudhi The results of the Faculty of Medicine, Maranatha Christian University, Bandung, in 2006 strengthened the evidence for the efficacy of red fruit increase endurance effectively. They prove red fruit extract contains compounds that function as macrofag activating factor (MAF). MAF is a compound that can activate macrophage functions as the body's defense cells. Macrofay takes the form of bacterial antigens, viruses, or toxins.

Nutritionists estimate the daily requirement of vitamin A by beta-carotene intake of 4.5 mg, while the daily requirement of alpha-tocopherol ranged from 2.6 to 15.4 mg, and vitamin C ranges from 500-2000 mg / day. These needs can be met through daily consumption of fruit and vegetables and red fruit consumption as much as 1-2 tablespoons per day. (Dr. Ir M.
