  1. The Pharmanex • BioPhotonic Scanner

  2. Pharmanex Biophotonic Scanner • Invented at University of Utah (Jarvik artificial heart) • Patented, validated noninvasive antioxidant measurement instrument • Provides important baseline health data just like blood pressure and cholesterol testing. • Uses Noble Prize Winning Science, (Raman Spectroscopy)

  3. Carotenoid antioxidants in stratum corneum What Do We Measure?

  4. Carotenoids Predict Antioxidant Status • Journal of Nutrition: • Carotenoids (blood) are an indicator of total antioxidant status • Carotenoids interact with the antioxidant network • Vitamin E (blood) is not a good indicator of antioxidant status

  5. You Are What You Eat (and Absorb) Antioxidants from the foods you consume are incorporated into cells and tissues. The greater your consumption of antioxidant-containing fruits and vegetables, the higher the concentration found in your tissues. Beta-carotene* Lycopene* *There are over 500 carotenoids found throughout nature, these are just a few examples found in our diets Lutein*

The European Journal of Nutrition • July 22, 2011 • Vitamin/mineral supplementation and cancer, cardiovascular, and all-cause mortality in a German prospective cohort • (EPIC-Heidelberg) • 11 year study of 23,943 people • users of antioxidant vitamin supplements • were 48% less likely to die from cancer • users of antioxidant vitamin supplements • were 42% less likely to die from all causes
