SPIN TRAPS

Stopping Free Radical Damage

Before it Begins

 HOW DID SPINTRAPS COME ABOUT? 

Scientists and doctors know that FREE RADICALS cause a lot of damage to a cell.  They can also harm DNA.

But they didn’t know exactly what type of damage they caused or the extent of that damage.

The idea came about to TRAP free radicals for study.  But how to trap them?  Well, as usual, the answer lay in good chemistry!

Certain chemicals, it seemed, readily attracted free radicals and sent off magnetic signals.  Scientists were able to measure these magnetic signals using a measurement process called Electron SPIN Resonance.

So there you have it!  The 2 words … SPIN and TRAP.

At first, scientists used Spintraps solely to trap and study free radicals, also known as “rogue molecules.”  Spintrap research was used to help doctors detect the presence of free radicals - what type and how dangerous - in diseases.

But they discovered a very exciting side benefit -- that side benefit being even more valuable than the intended benefit!          

What was this happy discovery?  With time, doctors and scientists discovered that the Spintraps actually prevented the free radicals from moving from cell to cell wreaking havoc in their midst like an out-of-control hurricane.

So the name TRAP became self-fulfilling.  From wanting to trap free radicals for study, it turned out that the chemicals scientists used to trap the free radicals also stopped them from spreading.

What are these amazing chemicals??  For starters, the most frequently used Spintraps are called PBN’s: phenyl-butyl-nitrone.

Spintraps are today’s most powerful “antioxidant.” They can distinguish good oxygen molecules from bad ones (reactive oxygen species.)   And they can stop cellular damage before it occurs.

Spintraps, the higher IQ “antioxidant,” stop the wild spinning, out-of-control free radicals and escorts these wayward rogue molecules back into the respiratory cycle where it is utilized in tissue respiration.

It's like a cowboy throwing a perfect lasso over the head of a “wild” horse about to run off track and do damage in a meadow of beautiful lilies.

Currently, other nitrones have been found to be 20 times greater than PBN!

Today, Spintraps are used widely to treat stroke victims. Administered over time, they can reduce paralysis and speech problems.

You should also not donate blood while taking Accutane or for 30 days after you stop taking the drug, (generic isotretinoin.) It has been linked with severe birth defects for children of mothers who were using the drug during pregnancy. Accutane is designed to help with skin conditions and acne.

Yes, free radicals are a big cause in the aging process. Eliminating free radicals are key to longevity and, of course, looking younger. The information that you are writing here is very informative.
