Chill Out! Relax! Restore Optimal Health and Calm Energy with Alfa PXP Forte

Getting the energy you need is not all about what you eat, it is also how easily your source of nutrients can be broken down, converted, and absorbed. Cells need energy to “get the job” done, and it’s up to each of us to give our cells the support they need.

PXP is Polysaccharide X Peptides, bio-available food for cellular support.

Join us for an interview with Dr. Jack Tips (renowned author and Naturopathic Physician) on how PXP feeds the Mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cell. “Fix the Mitochondria”, say scientists, “and the rest of you won’t break down.” This will be another great call with Dr. Tips. Invite your friends and family.

An interesting transporter is the Na+/Ca++ exchange pump (not shown in a figure in class, but described). It uses movement of Na+ in to cells to be a driving force for pumping Ca++ out. Remember than Ca++ stimulates muscular contraction. If Ca+ is not pumped OUT, its concentration in muscle cells remains high, stimulating contraction. Digitoxigenin is a compound from foxglove that binds the Na+/K+ ATPase, preventing development of a Na+ gradient. As a consequence, digitoxigenin increases Ca++ concentration, since Ca++ pumping requires a Na+ gradient. Digitoxigenin is used as a heart stimulant. 2. Nerve cells use the gradient of Na+ and K+ built up by the Na+/K+ pump to transmit signals. In nerve transmission, special “gates” open and close to allow Na to diffuse into nerve cells and K to diffuse out of nerve cells. 3. The first step in nerve transmission involves opening of Na+ gates. These allow Na+ to diffuse into the cell, since Na+ concentration is higher outside of cells than inside. Movement of the positively charged sodium ion causes a change in the electrical potential of the cell near the Na+ gate. To compensate for the voltage change, the K+ gates open and Na+ gates close, allowing K+ to flow out of the cell. This results in an overcompensation of the voltage. The K+ gates close and …

At the dawn of life, about 1 million years ago, unicellular organisms lived on earth. Despite the absence of oxygen they were able to produce enough energy to survive, in the form of ATP or adenosine triphosphate, a molecule containing three phosphorus ions linked with high energy bonds, known as the energy carrier par excellence.

They were, and still are, unable to use oxygen, but managed to obtain 2 ATPs for every mole of sugar, and they fed on bacteria by phagocytosis. One of them, the mitochondrion, developed a second outer membrane. As luck would have it, the first plant forms on the earth were beginning to produce oxygen in increasing quantities and cells could now use it to metabolise a variety of substances which had been partially or totally indigestible so far, in particular sugars and fats.

The mitochondrion not only could digest these substances, it could also obtain energy to store in precious ATP which it could then pass on to the cell in its entirety.

Thus, the situation of cells changed radically.

They no longer had just enough energy to survive, but had so much that they could group together and specialize, exchanging information and services. Another phase of life on earth had started.

In its current form the mitochondrion is bean-shaped and about one micron or a thousandth of a millimetre long. Its genetic code is separate from that of its host cell.

This DNA has the unique characteristic of being very short, containing only 16,569 nucleotides, as compared to the 3 billion of the cell. Its only job is to codify the 13 proteins and related RNA, in other words, only those responsible for producing energy. Everything else concerning its maintenance is delegated to the DNA of the cell of which the mitochondrion had become an integral and indispensable part. The mitochondrial DNA does not reproduce in the same way as the cell, probably because it is too heavy to be transported on the already overcrowded sperm head into the egg cell. The new life that results will have only its maternal mitochondria.

Comical as it seems this is the truth of the matter – your cells need the fuel to product that cellular energy called ATP that helps you do – everything! Think, move, act, calculate, the list goes on.

Mitochondria and cellular aging – Dr James Oschman, PhD: The components of the cells are so small, one millionth the size of a pin head. The mitochondria, one part of the cell, is the powerhouse of the cell creating ATP energy that fuels cellular function. What role does our mitochondria play in cellular aging? The mitochondria have a electron transport chain, and contain about 615 different proteins. This Nobel prize research has opened the door to greater understanding of mitochondria function. The ATP energy that our mitochondria produces is the immediate source of energy for nerve conduction and muscular contraction. “ATP activates important processes related to injury repair and regeneration..”.

PXP is delivered to your cells as pure food that fuels mitochondia for the production of ATP. Is PXP a tool for the prevention of cellular aging? It is easy to see that there is a straight line connecting pure food delivered on a cellular level, and our ability to function, repair, and retain our vitality.

James Oschman, PhD speaks about Mitochondria and Cellular Aging at the 16th annual A4M conference in Orlando, Florida.

Isn’t it great that we have the ability today to scientifically see the functions that take place deep within the body on a cellular level? Our technology has also given us the ability to demonstrate what we have learned through a vast array of media, such as video. This fun little video look at the role of mitochondria gives us greater insight and understanding of how important it is to nourish the body, giving our cells the resources they need to feed those mitochondria powerplants.

Let’s talk a little more about PXP and the relation of Alfa PXP Forte and our cellular function. It’s not always a matter of what you eat, but whether or not your body can break down those foods and deliver them to the cells. No delivery, no service. PXP is processed through proprietary means that retain the pure food value yet deliver it to the cells. This means resources available to your body to perform its most basic functions, and for mitochondria that is creating energy, a vital role in our physical, mental and emotional ability to function.

Mighty Mitochondria Theme Lyrics:
Mitochondria are the most important part of the cell We power the others up, yeah we run it for real We bust that ATP up from behind the scenes Others taking credit for our e- to the n-ergy We provide power– ZAP We give it life– WHAT?! We make all your others get up off your molecules LIKE! ATP: Break that glucose down None other can get the job done without Mito-chondrion Power it up, cellular respiration All we need? Water and Oxygen! This a bad time? Save it for later, son! Mitochondria store the energy In the bonds of a chemical called adenosine triphosphate (ATP) Break it down later release the energy The ‘Mighty Mitochondria’ Campaign “We’ve got the POWER!”

Our mitochondria has a major role in producing our energy. Who do you know at Mitoaction.org who can put PXP to the test?

Where does mitochondrial disease come from? How does your body make energy? Why are the mitochondria important for life, diseases, and aging?
