This is Dr. Ken Reed, one of the founders of CellRegenX, a specially formulated supplement for cellular rejuvenation. The response to our introduction of CellRegenX at Performance Health Center has been great, and we have received many positive comments from our new and existing users. Performance Health Center is one of the few physical locations where CellRegenX can be purchased. We think nearly everyone can benefit from feeling more energetic, although with time, we are equally excited about the lengthening of telomeres demonstrated in those tested on CellRegenX. With the aging process, telomeres gradually get shorter, and CellRegenX seems to have a profound effect on the lengthening of telomeres. So what are the key ingredients behind CellRegenX? There are two naturally occurring substances formulated in a precise amount that are responsible for the beneficial effects we have observed. Please read further for additional scientific explanations, but warning… this can get a bit technical. 

Glycyrrhizic acid (licorice):

Licorice has known for its antiviral, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, laxative and hepatoprotective effects. Interestingly, licorice has been known used in Ayurveda medicine for rejuvenation. Licorice is also a very common ingredient of traditional Chinese medicine.  Aldosterone, and licorice which has the ability to mimic the effect of aldosterone in the human body, also has a known ability to lead to intracellular pH alkalization[i].

Cellregenx has 250 mg of licorice root. According to researched literature and our independent studies of human volunteers taking Cellregenx up to 21 months, this small amount of licorice taken daily is completely safe and does not affects hormonal levels.

Lithium:

In a large Japanese observational cohort, an inverse correlation between drinking water lithium concentrations and all causes of mortality in 18 neighboring Japanese municipalities with a total of 1,206,174 individuals was reported[ii].

Daily value of Lithium for human is not established yet, but most authors agree that the healthy adult diet should include about 1-2 milligram of Lithium daily ( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11838882)

Cellregenx has 1 mg of Lithium orotate, what can be considered as a supplementation of a “physiological” dose.  In humans defined lithium deficiency diseases have not been characterized, but low lithium intakes from water supplies were associated with increased rates of suicides, homicides and the arrest rates for drug use and other crimes (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11838882).

Continuous administration of lithium leads to increased telomere length. Telomeres are protective DNA protein complexes at the ends of each chromosome, maintained primarily by the enzyme telomerase. Telomere shortening is also a hallmark of aging[iii], and has been associated with oxidative stress, inflammation and chronic somatic, as well as psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia and depression. Taken together, these findings indicate that long-term low-dose exposure to lithium may exert anti- aging capabilities and unambiguously decreases mortality in evolutionary distinct species[iv].

Combination Compound:

CellRegenX is a combination of lithium and licorice at a certain stoichiometric ratio found to be optimal for shifting and maintaining alkaline pHi(intracellular pH) This combination compound results in increased mitochondrial respiration, enhanced telomeres lengths and longer life span in worms, and other markers of the aging process.

For those of you who have made it this far, congratulations, and we suggest you celebrate by trying a 30 day bottle of CellRegenX. We are confident your energy level will be enhanced, and we think your cells will appreciate the boost! Remember, aging is constant, and we all need all the help we can get.
