 What is Oxidative Stress?


The term oxidative stress refers to free radicals in the body that interfere with normal cell function. One of the ways that the body manages the threat of free radicals is by transferring the unpaired electrons to antioxidants.  Increased oxidative stress, caused by numerous chemical, physical or emotional imbalances can deplete antioxidant defenses. Elevated oxidative stress biomarkers are associated with aging, cancer, Alzheimer's, cataracts and diabetes.

Outlined below are the measures Nutrichem's Biomedical Testing Laboratory uses to determine levels of oxidatve stress:

 Analytes



PLASMA LIPID PEROXIDES
An evaluation of total Lipid peroxide levels in plasma is an accurate means of reflecting whole body free radical activity.  Cancer, Heart disease, stroke and aging are all associated with high levels of lipid peroxides.

MALONDIALDEHYDE IN PLASMA AND URINE

Measures malonaldehyde in reaction with thiobarbituric acid.  This value is accepted generally in research and clinically as a standard means of assessing the body's antioxidant capability and overall oxidative stress.

CREATININE IN URINE

Urine creatine is used in ratio to the urine malonaldehyde to determine oxidative stress in the urinary tract.

We are strong advocates of the classic patient-physician relationship  especially with respect to prescriptions. Any patient that requires a prescription must have a face to face interaction with their physician. FDA's general position: The FDA, due to the current state of their regulations, has taken the position that virtually all shipments of prescription drugs imported from a Canadian pharmacy by a U.S. consumer will violate the law.   If a woman must take hormone replacement therapy to ease the symptoms of menopause she should take the lowest possible dose for the shortest amount of time.
