The third pillar is foundational because keeping the spark is to maintain good cell health by keeping our cells “little power plants” known as mitochondria as fully charged as possible. You wouldn’t let your car without oil it is the same concept our body’s needs constant and regular maintenance.
Over time, the build-up of oxidative stress causes your mitochondria to break down, damaging the cells containing them. Taurine is a cornerstone ingredient of Shock it Up. It is found in meat, fish, and all high-protein foods, and studies have shown that it is critical to keep mitochondria “charged”. In addition, Taurine also offers potent antioxidant effects, helping to enhance many essential cell functions. Taurine is an ingredient found in meat, fish, and all high-protein foods.
Vitamin C can be either an antioxidant or a pro-oxidant, depending on the body’s requirements.. Because of this process, it can perform a number of bodily duties. Because of its antioxidant qualities, vitamin C improves blood flow and has neuroprotective effects.
Vitamin C is both an antioxidant and pro-oxidant, depending on Pine bark extract is naturally derived from the inner bark of certain pine trees. Like known antioxidants like grape seed extract, the pine bark extract in Shock It Up is also a class of natural polyphenol compounds known as Oligomeric Proanthocyanins (OPCS). These team up with the Punicalagins of pomegranate, creating a powerful antioxidant that help decrease the harmful effects of free radicals. It is also believed that OPCCs may intensify the uptake of Vitamin C that the body needs. It can perform a number of bodily activities thanks to this process. Vitamin C has neuroprotective effects and improves blood flow because of its antioxidant qualities.
