Broad-spectrum antioxidant capsules for oxidative stress support, immune support, and eye health support with ALA, polyphenols, lutein, and zeaxanthin‡
What it is
Antioxidant Defense is a high-potency, broad-spectrum antioxidant formula built to support your body’s defenses against free radicals and everyday environmental stressors. It combines foundational antioxidants (Vitamins C and E, selenium) with targeted compounds like alpha lipoic acid, concentrated polyphenols, and eye carotenoids (lutein, zeaxanthin, astaxanthin).‡
Why it matters
Oxidative stress is a normal part of life. It increases during periods of:
- High training volume and poor recovery
- Travel, air pollution, and higher environmental exposure
- Busy seasons with less sleep and higher stress
- Higher immune demand
A “single-antioxidant” approach often falls short because oxidative stress is not one pathway. This formula is designed to provide coverage across multiple antioxidant systems.
How it works
1) Neutralizes free radicals (C, E, polyphenols)
Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and plant polyphenols support the body’s ability to manage oxidative stress.
2) Supports glutathione-related pathways
Provides cysteine support, and selenium supports antioxidant enzyme activity.
3) Supports cellular antioxidant recycling (alpha lipoic acid)
Alpha lipoic acid helps support the body’s antioxidant network and cellular resilience.
4) Supports eye antioxidant defenses (lutein, zeaxanthin, astaxanthin)
These carotenoids support antioxidant activity in tissues that are exposed to light and oxidative demand.
5) Adds standardized concentrates for “wide coverage”
Grape seed, green tea, turmeric, pine bark, bilberry, and red wine extract provide additional polyphenol diversity.
Comparison Table
| NuGeneLabs – Antioxidant Defense | Typical Low-Cost / Generic “Premium” Antioxidant Blend | Leading Practitioner-Grade Antioxidant Blend | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price per 30-day supply (calculated) | $38.00 (exact, at 2 caps/day) | ~$18.00–$28.00 | ~$45.00–$65.00 |
| Daily active dose / key ingredients | Multi-pathway blend with NAC + ALA + polyphenols + eye carotenoids | Often fewer standardized extracts or lower doses | Similar “multi-pathway” intent, often higher price |
| Form & delivery / concentration | Capsules with multiple standardized concentrates | Variable potency and extract standardization | Typically strong standardization and sourcing detail |
| Purity, testing & quality controls | Uses branded/trademarked ingredients (where listed) and standardized extracts | Transparency varies; “proprietary blends” are common | Usually strongest transparency standards, reflected in cost |
| Tolerance & experience | Flexible dosing for daily or higher-demand periods | Some formulas rely heavily on stimulatory extracts | Often cleaner labeling, sometimes higher potency per serving |
| Sourcing / excipients | Diverse plant extracts + carotenoids | More fillers and less disclosure can be common | Often emphasizes excipient control and clinical positioning |
| Best fit / use-case | People wanting wide antioxidant coverage plus eye + immune support | Budget-first antioxidant support | Practitioner-led protocols and higher-budget programs |
