Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to reducing oxidative stress in a subject, and more particularly to the reduction of oxidative stress in order to treat certain illnesses that are caused or aggravated by oxidative stress.
- Oxidative stress relates to the imbalance of free radicals and antioxidants in the body, where the free radicals more particularly relate to reactive oxygen species in the body, where the body has difficulty effectively detoxifying the reactive intermediates or to repair the damage caused therefrom.
- the body produces free radicals during normal metabolic processes. Free radicals are effectively unstable oxygen-containing molecules that have an uneven number of electrons on their outer valence band. In this condition, they effectively act as ionized oxygen molecules.
- Ionized oxygen molecules are produced naturally when the body breaks down food or is exposed to certain substances.
- Oxidative stress is dangerous and has a deleterious effect on health because it can damage cells, proteins, and DNA, as well as contributing to ageing, cancer, as well as certain neurodegenerative and life-threatening diseases.
- Oxidative stress in Parkinson's disease from Peter Jenner DSc, Supplement: Neurogeneration and Prospects for Neuroprotection and Rescue in Parkinson's Disease , Vol. 53, Issue S3, pages. S26-S38, a correlation between Parkinson’s disease and oxidative stress is described.
- Oxidative stress, aging, and diseases by Liguori et ak, Clin Interv Aging.
- oxidative stress is related to several age-related conditions, such as cardiovascular diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease chronic kidney disease, neurodegenerative diseases, cancer.
- cardiovascular diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease chronic kidney disease, neurodegenerative diseases, cancer.
- a solution for reducing oxidative stress may stave off the advancement of such diseases or reduce the aggravation of these diseases.
- Oxidative stress has also been shown to play a role in traumatic brain injury, such as the one following a collision during a sporting injury, as explained in Toklu et ak, “Chapter 5: Oxidative Stress, Brain Edema, Blood-Brain Barrier Permeability, and Autonomic Dysfunction from Traumatic Brain Injury”, Brain Neurotrauma: Molecular, Neuropsychological, and Rehabilitation Aspects, Boca Raton (FL): CRC Press/Taylor & Francis; 2015
- the present disclosure relates to the unexpected discovery that a device composed of pure white shocked piezoelectric quartz, when combined with pure metal substances in the form of pure metal powders, can reduce oxidative stress in a subject when applied to a skin of the subject.
- the device can be used to impede the progress and/or reduce the symptoms of certain diseases and disorders that are caused by or worsened by oxidative stress such as cancer, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, diabetes, myocardial infarction, cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, atherosclerosis, stroke, neural disorders, lung diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis, chronic fatigue syndrome and asthma.
- the device includes a titanium catalyst; a selection of pure metal and non-metal powders capable of being ionized including one or more of zinc, silver, copper, titanium, lithium, iron oxide, and graphite; and a conducting substance that serves to embed the latter such as a medical-grade pure silicone resin.
