Welcome!

Ionizing radiation has been officially classified as a carcinogen by both the World Health Organization and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. This is of significant concern because Americans are now exposed to approximately seven times more radiation on average than they were in 1980.

BioShield-Radiation^® is the first patented formulation specifically designed to address oxidative stress produced by ionizing radiation. It has been shown in numerous scientific studies to be safe, non-toxic and maximally effective in decreasing free radicals (unstable cells that can cause damage to DNA, leading to the possible development of cancer).

Developed by the radiation biologists and antioxidant scientists of Premier Micronutrient Corporation, BioShield-Radiation^®'s free radical scavenging formulations of pharmaceutical grade ingredients reach a high blood level shortly after ingestion and are suitable for pre and post-treatment for medical and dental x-ray procedures, CT scans, nuclear medicine tests, PET scans and PET/CT exams. Additionally, they are appropriate for individuals taking airline flights and for those who are exposed on a recurrent basis (either occupation or environment-related) to ionizing radiation.

SOURCES OF RADIATION EXPOSURE

Natural Cosmic (radiation from space) Terrestrial (radioactive material in soil, water, vegetation) Internal radiation (from isotopes within the human body) Man-Made Occupational (x-ray technologists, flight crews, nuclear power plant workers) Occasional (medical testing, consumer aviation)

Physician Quote

"Everyone in the profession understands the importance of dose reduction in cardiac CT. We’re constantly searching for ways to optimize scanning protocols and to tailor exposure parameters to the individual patient. I believe BioShield-Radiation^® is a terrific complement to these scanner-centric dose-reduction techniques."
- Matthew Budoff, MD, FACC

 

BioShield Protection

• Episodic Exposure
  (medical x-rays, airline flights)
   
• Recurrent Exposure
  (x-ray technologist, commercial flight crews)
