Slowing aging – restoring energy

by Barb Jarmoska

Just as a car can go further on a full tank of gasoline – your body can work harder and longer with additional fuel. That “work” can be defined in a multitude of ways - from running a mile to shoveling the driveway to running the vacuum to balancing the checkbook. Whether physical or mental – the expenditure of energy doesn’t vary. Every single cell in your body produces energy with a molecule known as adenosine tri-phosphate, or ATP.

According to Ken Choat, nutritional researcher, “ATP is the most investigated anti- aging molecule and the subject of literally thousands of research projects being conducted around the globe.”

The reason ATP is such a critical part of the aging process because the availability of ATP in the human body declines significantly with age. ATP levels begin a significant downward slide at age 50 and by age 70, the ATP pools found within red blood cells has declined by 50% or more. Because ATP is also a messenger molecule (neurotransmitter), declining ATP levels are associated with far more than just fatigue and a reduction in available energy. ATP also impacts general wellness and vitality, nutrient absorption, cellular and tissue regeneration, organ function, memory loss, blood sugar stabilization, recovery from injury and surgery, lean muscle mass and circulation.

Scientists have known for some time that enhancing the level of available ATP in the body could have a positive impact at the cellular level, which would then translate out to every major organ and system. However, until recently, there was no viable method of delivery for ATP other than injection – a costly and limiting process. If swallowed orally, ATP in capsule or tablet form was unable to survive the journey through the stomach acid and could not be delivered intact to the bloodstream where needed.

Thanks to the work of Dr. Eliezer Rapaport, that challenge has been met. Dr Rapaport has served on the faculties of Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston University School of Medicine and the Worcester Foundation for Experimental Biology. His research activities are published in 58 original, peer-reviewed articles. Thanks to Rapaport, ATP is now available in a lozenge form.

By placing an ODT (Oral Dissolving Tablet) under the tongue, ATP is delivered directly into the bloodstream and from there to the trillions of cells in the body where it is needed. The result is an increase in blood levels of ATP within 20 minutes – and the effects of that increase are often dramatic.

Because the amount of ATP available to your cells diminishes significantly with age, the results can be manifest in many ways. In general, these are referred to as simply the aging process. You are more easily fatigued, you heal more slowly, your short term memory is not what it used to be, you may be diabetic or pre-diabetic, your blood pressure may be up, your digestion causing some discomfort, your joints developing arthritis, your back hurting. In each of these cases – an increase in ATP at the cellular level can have a noticeable and positive impact.

The therapeutic benefits of ATP are widely recognized in Europe where nutritional supplements enjoy more favor among the medical establishment than they do in this country. As a mater of fact, in France - ATP is the #1 prescription written for chronic low back pain.

ATP is safe, well researched and does not interfere with other medications. ATP in lozenge form is newly available – and the results are significant. Dr. Rapaport’s patented formula is known as Peak ATP. Give it a try – and discover the performance-enhancing and anti-aging properties for yourself.
