Pharmanex® Bio Photonic Scanner

What is the Pharmanex® BioPhotonic Scanner, and how does it work?

This breakthrough technology from the University of Utah is based on Nobel Prize winning science. A blue light laser non-invasively penetrates the top layer of your skin. It then identifies antioxidant molecules in the tissue, and quantifies them on a computer readout...in less than 3 minutes! The reading is extremely accurate, and has been validated against other boi-marker tests for antioxidants. And because it is a tissue measurement, it is actually much more accurate than a blood or urine test.

Is this score important?

The antioxidant score from the scanner is a very important score. It will tell a person if their current regimen is giving them the best results possible. In other words, it will indicate if someone is eating enough fruits and vegetables, and/or if they are receiving value for the antioxidant vitamin supplements they are using. Measuring one's antioxidant levels can be as important as monitoring cholesterol, triglycerides, blood pressure, and resting metabolic rate.

How does someone raise their score?

Reduce exposure to Free Radicals:
If you smoke or use any other form of tobacco, STOP. Nothing else you could do would make more of a difference in your overall health.

Reduce stress in your life:
Stress is a major producer of Free Radicals. Do you have something that is causing major stress in your life? Maybe it is time to take action.

Increase your intake of Antioxidants:
Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables. This is the number one place to start. The National Cancer Institute recommends that we eat 5-9 servings of fruit and vegetables every day.

Get on a good supplement. Since the majority of our population does not consume enough fruits and vegetables, the Journal of the American Medical Association recommends that EVERYONE take a multi-vitamin daily. (JAMA, June 19, 2002) However, not all supplements are created equal. With all the claims, stories and theories, it is difficult for consumers to know which product to buy...and whether or not it actually works. That is where the BioPhotonic Scanner comes in. The scanner will tell you the bottom line: Are your dietary routine and supplements getting antioxidants to the cellular level to give you optimal immune system support?

Which supplement should I take?

The BioPhotonic Scanner can measure your antioxidant levels regardless of which supplement you are on. However, we recommend LifePak by Pharmanex®. LifePak is clinically tested and standardized, and is backed by a money back guarantee if your scores do not improve after taking the supplement for 60 days.
