NUCLEX - Blackcurrent juice powder with DNA-Nucleopeptides beverage


When one cell divides to make a new cell, everything inside it is duplicated, including the DNA. Nuclex TM, the new breakthrough that gives your cell the components it needs to make a new DNA.


What is NUCLEX TM can do for you?
  • Enhance generation of new cells
  • Repair damaged tissues
  • Improve cellular metabolism
  • Prevent gene mutation
  • Strengthen self-repair ability of gene
  • Protects DNA / gene from free radical damage

Health benefits of NUCLEX TM

Cell growth and metabolism

It improves cellular metabolism including taking in raw materials, building cell components, converting energy, molecules and releasing by-products.

It enhances the two distinct divisions of metabolism: catabolism in which the cell breaks down complex molecules to produce energy and reducing power, and anabolism, wherein the cell uses energy and reducing power to construct complex molecules and perform other biological functions.

Creation of new cells

It enhances DNA replication which is required every time a cell divides. In cell division, a single divides into two daughter cells which lead to the growth and development of new tissue.

Protein synthesis

It facilitates transcription and translation which involve the formation of new protein molecules from amino acid building blocks based on information encoded in DNA/RNA. It increases protein synthesis which is essential for the modulation and maintenance of cellular activities.

Immune System

It maintains and enhances cellular immunity. It has stimulating effetcs on the humoral immune system; it can increase antibody production, interferon-gamma and B-cell number.

Digestive System

It enhances intestinal growth and development. It increases the thickness of intestinal lining as well as promotes the repair and recovery of injured organs. DNA & RNA salt has a pronounced effect on the gut microflora. It increases the number of intestinal friendly bacteria and inhibits the growth of bad bacteria which causes diarrheal disease. It also helps regulate stomach acid production.

Liver

It improves liver functions, including metabolism of carbohydrates, protein and fats. It helps to lower down total cholesterol, LDL and triglycerides levels as well as to increase HDL cholesterol level.

DNA & RNA salt also promotes cell growth and development. Hence, it is very helpful in repair and recovery of injured liver tissues.

Infant Nutrition

It plays a significant role in infant nutrition. It provides the essential nutrients which aid in cell growth and development. It also enhances immunity, highly beneficial for infants who have weak immune system. It greatly improves learning ability as it can increase the levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids docosahexaenoic acid and arachidonic acid in the brain.

Cell - "The Building Block of Life"

Cells, the building blocks of human body, are the smallest units that perform all vital physiological functions. They are produced by the division of pre-existing cells and each cell functions to maintain homeostasis at the cellular level. Homeostasis at the tissue, organ, system and organism levels reflects the combined and coordinated actions of many cells.


In human cell, there exists are two different kinds of genetic material: deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) which is the hereditary material of genes, and ribonucleic acid (RNA) which contains the information necessary to build various proteins.



DNA is a nucleic acid that contains the genetic information that allows living things to function, grow and reproduce. It is found primarily in the nucleus of human cells and small amounts are also found in the mitochondria (cell energy powerhouse).


DNA is a long polymer of the simple units called nucleotides, which are held together by a backbone made of sugars and phosphate groups. This backbone carries four types od molecules called bases (adenine, guanine, thymine and cytosine) and it is the sequence of these four bases that encodes the genetic information. The major function of DNA is to encode the sequence of amino acid residues in proteins, using the genetic code. To read genetic code, cells make a copy of a stretch of DNA in the nucleic acid RNA. These RNA copies can then be used to direct protein synthesis.


DNA REPLICATION & TRANSCRIPTION


For cells to live and grow, the genetic information in DNA must be (1) propagated and maintained from generation to generation, and (2) expressed to synthesize the components of a cell. These two functions are carried out by the processes of DNA replication and transcription.


DNA Replication


DNA is composed of two strands that wrap around each other to form a double helix. The two strands are held together by base pairing and are anti-parallel. During replication, the two parental strands are separated, and each is used as a template for the synthesis of a new strand of DNA. Synthesis of the nascent DNA strands is carried out by a family of enzymes called DNA polymerases. Base incorporation is directed by the existing DNA strand; nucleotides that base-pair with the template are added to the nascent DNA strand. The product of replication is two complete double-stranded helices, each of which contains all of the genetic information (has the identical base sequence) of the parental DNA.



Transcription & Translation


In transcription, DNA acts as a template directing the synthesis of RNA. RNA is single stranded polymer similar to DNA except that it contains the sugar ribose instead of 2-deoxyribose and the base uracil instead of thymidine. The two strands of DNA separate transiently, and one of the two single-stranded regions is used as a template to direct the synthesis of an RNA strand. As in DNA replication, base pairing between the incoming ribonucleotide and the template strand determines the sequence of bases is directly transferred from DNA and RNA in transcription. After the RNA is synthesised, the DNA reverts to double-stranded form. Transcription is carried out by a family of enzymes called RNA polymerases. Following transription, newly synthesised RNA is often processed prior to being used to direct protein synthesis by ribosomes in a process called translation.
