20 30
In the twentieth century, the average life span increased by 30 years. At the same time, health problems associated with normal aging continually increased, such as function of organs decline, osteoporosis as well as function of immune system decline. So we're living longer, but are we living better?
30 Start taking care of your health now and really live those extra 30 years. Eating a well-balanced diet is the foundation of good health. However, eating right does not guarantee that the body will receive all of the nutrients it needs. Learning the nutritional needs of the body will help you understand how supplementation can ensure the body receive the appropriate amount and consistent levels of nutrients.

1. Free radicals affect healthy cell structure internally and externally. 2. If this happens in DNA molecules, it will be extensively damaged. 3. Even though the DNA molecules can repair itself remarkably well, some damage remains. 4. Impaired DNA molecules regenerate more abnormal cells. 5. Over these years, these DNA damages will accumulate and result in decreased functionality of the body which is defined as aging.

FR Free Radicals
According to scientists, 99% of the time, you age because of free radicals affect our body. Free radicals are unstable molecules that steal or "scavenge" electrons from other molecules. They also damage the DNA and impair the cellular functions. However, we can't avoid them as we can't always avoid our body's exposure to the sources which generate them. For examples, pollution, sunlight, smoking and oxygen. Although the oxygen we breathe is converted and used for metabolism, about 1% is left over and is converted to harmful free radicals. Therefore, there are over billions free radicals attack our body everyday.

In the past, aging seems to be an unavoidable and unchangeable physiological process. Fortunately, because of the technological advancement, aging rate is now under controlled by human gradually. Modern science starts from understanding the origin and process of aging to bringing up means of remedy to slow down the aging process, it allows us to more concern about our health!

Though our body has natural antioxidant defense system, as we age, our antioxidant defense system becomes weaker which impairs our body's ability to fight against disease and leads to many health problems. It is impossible for us to get rid of free radicals every day, fortunately, antioxidants can act as a barrier to defend against free radicals damage. Antioxidants are stable molecules that can freely share their electrons and inhibit the degenerative chain reaction of freeradical oxidation. As a result, adding antioxidants to the diet and enhance the body antioxidant defense system is the best solution to fight against free radicals and develop a good health. A large and growing number of recent clinical and experimental studies demonstrate clearly that certain antioxidant nutrients cannot only slow or prevent aging-related DNA damage, but also enhance the body's ability to repair the damage after it occurs. The most beneficial antioxidants appear to be:

LDL oxidizability is believed to be an important factor in cardiovascular health, because oxidized LDL tend to adhere to the inner arterial wall more than non-oxidized LDL that are protected by antioxidants. It is the main cause of astherosclerosis.

34 To further understand the factors that affect the Skin Carotenoid Score (SCS), we have analyzed the SCS of over 340,000 scannes in four markets, including Hong Kong, China, Japan and United States.
Taking LifePak and consuming plenty of fruits & vegetables can increase Skin Carotenoid Score
639,00033,000 Score data shows that the average SCS of people who take LifePak daily and consume more than 6 servings of fruits & vegetables every day are 39,000 and 33,000 respectively. Meanwhile, the SCS of non-smokers are higher than smokers. It once again proves that smoking is a major source of free radicals which strongly weaken the antioxidant defense system of our body.

Inflammation
Inflammation is one of the immune mechanisms by which the body fights diseasecausing organisms that invade the body and helps to restore any damage to normal. However, it will be switched to chronic inflammation. A study published in American Journal Clinical Nutrition shows that a meal one high in fat (rich in omega6 fatty acids) and low in fruits and vegetables will contribute to imbalance of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids ratio in the body. It causes inflammation in the body, free radicals production in order to increase the risk of chronic diseases (eg. chronic hypertension, atherosclerosis, obesity) and accelerate the aging process.

To solve the inflammation and aging problems caused by diet, we can take LifePak after the morning and evening meal on top of eating plenty of fruit & vegetables. LifePak can provide a high concentration of antioxidants to neutralize free radicals produced in our diet and slower the aging process. Used together with MarineOmega which is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, it can balance the over-consumed omega-6 fatty acids in our diet and minimize inflammation in our body. Besides, it can enhance the absorption of the fat-soluble nutrients and nutrients bioavailability to maximum health benefits.
