Protandim acts on the molecular and cellular level to trigger the body to produce superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione and other enzymes that regulate anti-oxidants also know as free radicals. These enzymes naturally decrease as we age. These free radicals, while necessary in small amounts, cause tremendous damage when they are not kept in check. The result of unchecked anti-oxidants is oxidative stress - disease, discomfort, and general malaise. Diabetes is one of many diseases whose side effects are always worse when oxidative stress is higher. Control oxidative stress and your general health is improved. While there is no direct evidence that Protandim decreases the effects of diabetes (yet - studies are ongoing) it is undisputed that Protandim helps check many of the negative effects that are common to diabetes and to oxidative stress.
