DNA Protection Formula
60 vegetarian capsules
Item Catalog Number: 01036

Medical science has documented the ability of certain nutrients to exert powerful effects that can significantly bolster the body’s natural defenses against chemical assault. DNA Protection Formula provides standardized potencies of curcumin, chlorophyllin, wasabi, and broccoli extract.

The turmeric extract contains the gene-protecting nutrient curcumin. It helps maintain healthy cell function, and provides antioxidant protection against cell injury by inhibiting the formation of free radicals and quenching already-formed superoxide and hydroxyl radicals.44,45

In addition to protecting against cell-damaging free radicals,36-38 the chlorophyllin binds and forms irreversible complexes with certain toxic chemicals, allowing the body to safely eliminate them before they can enter the bloodstream.46

This formula also contains pure, organically grown New Zealand wasabi rhizome, a rich source of long-chain methyl isothiocyanates that have been shown to help maintain healthy liver enzymes.47

And the standardized broccoli extract contains concentrated levels of glucosinolate and sulforaphane, two bioactive compounds providing the isothiocyanates that are recommended for good health.
