Redox Signalling: ASEA Amazing Molecules
Read more about redox signalling and the amazing molecules, ASEA. Everyone has heard of Detox, but have you heard of Redox?
In this article, I will explore the role of redox and how it can impact our general health.
In 2018 I was on my knees in terms of health after a long period of emotional stress. I was suffering from chronic fatigue, recurrent UTI’s, an injury following Ciprofloxacin and severe brain fog.
During this period, I was not functioning well and was exhausted. Being a busy single working mum of 2 young boys, it was a real challenge and dark period in my life.
If I had a nap I just about managed to get through the day, I went from squatting 1.5 times my body weight and competing in Cross Fit, to struggling to even make the bed.
One day, a nurse who I was in contact with who lives in Australia, posted about ASEA Redox Signalling molecules. Many doctors, naturopaths, dentists, vets and even Olympic athletes use this product with great results. I heard one fan describe ASEA as “consciousness in a bottle” and I believe this to be true.
I did some (extensive) research and decided to take a chance on this product after having tried so many things in my quest to heal. Finally, I had something that I could see almost instant and significant results.
My path to healing began once I added ASEA into my daily routine, it was a game-changer (thank you Naomi).
Due to the mode of action of the Redox Signalling Molecules in increasing glutathione and gene expression, there is some hope it may help those injured by vaccines or struggling with Long Covid.
Results
I was blown away by the results, within a week the brain fog had lifted. My right and left brain seemed to communicate better with each other. Slowly the fatigue lifted and my muscles gained more strength. I could make the bed again without it feeling hard and finally go back to the gym.
I became an associate so I could advise and provide for others and was invited to join a Facebook group and read the testimonials. So many have had huge positive changes from this product. I am not a natural saleswoman, but the product speaks for itself.
The one thing that persuaded me to take a chance on this product was the company refused to sell out to big pharma. The technology is patented and backed by scientific research. The real-life testimonials blew me away.
You can find more testimonials here.
Not just a supplement
I also use the ASEA Renu 28 gel on almost everything.
So far I have seen it work on hair growth (really), stubborn warts/ herpes/ general cuts and bruises/ painful joints/ headaches etc. The list goes on. Between the supplement and the gel, I have replaced many products with just 2.
It is safe for pets, children and for those with underlying health conditions. It is also 100% natural with no side effects.
What is Redox?
The movement of electrons plays a role in the energy exchanges in cells. Energy production within a cell involves many coordinated chemical pathways.
Most of these pathways are combinations of oxidation and reduction reactions. Oxidation and reduction occur in tandem.
An oxidation reaction strips an electron from an atom in a compound, and the addition of this electron to another compound is a reduction reaction.
Oxidation and reduction usually occur together, these pairs of reactions are called oxidation-reduction reactions, or redox reactions.
Redox Signaling Molecules by Robertson D. Ward, M.D. FAAFP
At the very core, our bodies work by energy production from the REDOX biochemical reactions converting food and oxygen into energy, carbon dioxide, and water.
This is called cellular respiration. Large molecules are broken down into smaller ones, releasing energy in the process.
The exchange of energy involves the transfer of electrons from one molecule to another. This “combustion” of sorts, called the Krebs cycle, creates cellular energy (ATP) and also various molecular side reactions.
There are a collection of very tiny molecules created in these side reactions, which vary in size from 2-4 atoms, and are called REDOX signalling molecules (RSM).
They are generated in some cells a million times a second and also used to carry out their work equally as fast. It is no wonder that these molecules are so pivotal in our biology.
The location for all of this energetic creativity in the cell is the mitochondria. Some cells have 5000 mitochondria per cell (cardiac muscles) and some have just a few (connective tissues). Our cardiac cells are so efficient in creating and using energy; they never rest from their labour.
What do they do?
The Redox Signalling Molecules produced in cells have a multitude of important missions. They serve as messengers inside and outside cells. They direct cellular actions such as cell division, cellular death cycles, and cell membrane receptor gatekeepers.
We should think of mitochondria at the heart of our biology, and REDOX signalling molecules giving it a way to integrate itself with the cell and organism. These tiny RSM’s alert the mitochondria to adjust to the real-time changes in the cell environment, which is influenced by the rest of the organs.
REDOX simply means chemical reactions in which atoms have a transfer of electrons between themselves. The word is a blend of reduction and oxidation.
The former is referring to gaining electron charges and the latter to losing them. In human biology, the stress of oxidation, or an internal process of “rusting,” is constantly challenging us.
Maintaining Balance
We adapt to this challenge with the help of various REDOX mechanisms, which help us maintain balance. Glucose, for example, is oxidized to manufacture energy, and this REDOX reaction allows us to live.
There are REDOX signalling molecules created in this reaction that guide and direct the cell in other vital cellular activities, such as helping the cell eliminate waste, and self-repair and protection.
Interestingly, the companion reverse REDOX reaction is photosynthesis. In photosynthesis (in plants), carbon dioxide and water are returned to glucose and oxygen with the help of sunlight and chlorophyll.
Cellular Health
All of our health problems are due to cells that are unable to maintain a healthy REDOX potential. The immediate result could be cellular death, overwhelming infection.
In our industrialized world, our challenges result in chronic imbalances in cellular health causing chronic oxidative stress that the body is unable to overcome. Ageing, poor diet, mental stress, poor hydration, and inadequate exercise set the stage for this imbalance, which advances the pace of ageing (as well as illness).
Today there is a promising development in health science. For the first time, we are finding that supplementing our tissues with stabilized REDOX signalling molecules has provided the core content of molecular resources for the cells. Cells then apply the REDOX resources. Upon this infusion of electrons and molecules hinges the whole equation from the tiny mitochondria to the whole person.
How are redox signaling molecules produced?
Redox signalling molecules are produced in every cell of the body through natural metabolic processes. Until the 21st century, such biological processes were the only known source of redox signalling molecules.
That changed in the early 2000s when ASEA developed its groundbreaking, patented process to produce redox signalling molecules from refined salt and purified water—making the first and only supplement on the market verified to contain active redox signalling molecules.
If the body produces redox signalling molecules, why would I need a redox supplement?
While most ordinary dietary supplements provide only nutrients the human body does not synthesize, the biological deficiencies caused by ageing and cellular breakdown go deeper than just nutrition.
As stress, diet, air quality, and other environmental factors cause cellular breakdown over time, the body’s naturally supplied balance of redox signalling molecules is compromised—creating a need for supplemental redox molecules like those found in ASEA REDOX Cell Signaling Supplement.
Is there a connection between redox signalling and gene expression?
In 2016, ASEA commissioned a scientific study that used gene expression as the key performance indicator for ASEA REDOX Cell Signaling Supplement. The study found that, over eight weeks, those who drank ASEA REDOX daily experienced a 20–31% beneficial and stable change in gene expression in five genes involved in pathway signalling.
What is gene expression?
The nucleus is the cellular “brain,” which holds information about the cell’s specialized function in small segments of DNA called genes.
Gene expression is the process by which genetic information is accessed and applied to orchestrate cellular function; without it, cells would be unable to perform life-sustaining tasks.
The supplemental redox molecules found in ASEA REDOX Cell Signaling Supplement have been shown to affect genetic expression in a positive way, helping to protect, rejuvenate, and enhance cellular function.
What is pathway signalling?
A series of chain reactions (or cascades) initiated by signals at the cellular level cue cellular responses that maintain the balanced biological activity that keeps your body functioning.
Signalling pathways guide the progression of these cellular responses, including genetic responses, determining their scope and overall effect in the body.
Some pathways are extensive and can influence a wide range of physiological behaviours. For example, the genes affected by ASEA REDOX play a significant role in influencing five key areas of health:
- Vascular Health
- Innate Immune System Response
- Inflammation Reduction
- Hormone Modulation
- Digestive Enzyme Production
- Redox Signaling Research
What kind of research has been done on redox signaling?
Redox signalling is a maturing area of research within the fields of cell biology and metabolic studies. A peer-reviewed scientific journal dedicated to understanding the vital impact of redox processes on human health and disease was established in 1999.
Estimates put the number of peer-reviewed papers on the topic somewhere in the tens of thousands.
How did ASEA develop its proprietary redox signalling technology?
ASEA Founder Verdis Norton was first introduced to redox signalling biochemistry while serving on the board of a Utah biotech company. The company’s preliminary work in redox molecule synthesis had produced promising results, but a lack of funds forced them to shelf the project early.
Convinced of its breakthrough potential, Verdis and a few close partners pooled resources to acquire the discontinued tech and revive the research.
ASEA commissioned its own team of medical professionals, scientists, and engineers to advance the technology, conducting a comprehensive safety analysis and producing a scalable method of production for ASEA REDOX Cell Signaling Supplement and future redox signalling products.
How do I know redox products are safe?
It’s important to remember that redox signalling is a natural biological process that safely occurs in every cell of our bodies.
The redox signalling molecules in ASEA products are native to the body and easily assimilated. Studies have consistently shown that ASEA’s redox products are safe and effective. See product label for recommended serving amounts by age.
