HOW TO REDUCE OXIDATIVE STRESS

Oxidative stress occurs when free radicals outnumber the number of antioxidants you have in your body.


Free radicals come from the normal metabolic processes of our cells. For example, we use oxygen, in combination with food, to form energy that our cells can utilize. The chemical processes that achieve the formation of energy produce free radicals.


When we breathe, we gather oxygen in the lungs and this is dispersed to all the cells of the body by way of circulation (blood flow). The oxygen gives cells the fuel they need to function. When the cells use this oxygen to form energy, free radicals are formed.


Most of us are likely under oxidative stress, and don’t even know it. Thankfully, there are a few ways to naturally increase your antioxidant levels, and get your oxidative health back on track!

SIGNS OF OXIDATIVE STRESS

hot flashes

FATIGUE

As free radicals damage the mitochondria in your cells, you may experience fatigue that your body just can’t shake. Mitochondria produce energy, and when they can’t function properly, you may constantly feel tired.

insomnia and fatigue

BRAIN FOG

As the mitochondria in your brain become damaged from free radicals, your brain may have difficulty processing and focusing like it used to. If you feel “foggy,” it’s probably oxidative stress.

mood changes

MUSCLE + JOINT PAIN

An excess of free radicals can also trigger systematic inflammation throughout your body. The most common areas you’ll feel soreness are in your muscles and joints.

weight gain

CHRONIC HEADACHES

When your body and brain can’t function at optimal levels, this inflammation will compound and produce chronic fatigue, strain, and inflammation – which can trigger persistent headaches.

Daily Habits To Combat The Symptoms Of Menopause

AT WELL THEORY, OUR GOAL IS TO HELP YOU CURATE A LIFE LIVED WELL – IN A LASTING, HOLISTIC WAY.

1. GET SOME REST

practice good sleep hygiene
2. IMPROVE YOUR DIET


Eat foods that have high antioxidant content, like leafy greens, vegetables, and fruits like cherries and apples. A healthy diet is also easier for your body to break down. Processed foods are more likely to produce harmful free radicals.

3. GET DAILY EXERCISE


Fresh air, endorphin release, and more can help your body better process fuel. As your body becomes more aligned with a healthy lifestyle, it will begin to improve its antioxidant production all on its own.

4. SUPPLEMENT WHERE NECESSARY


As you begin to exercise more, it’s normal to feel some muscle soreness. But if left unchecked, it could keep you from committing to daily exercise, or even lead to injury if you’re fatigued. Make sure you’re stretching before and after exercise, and optimize your recovery by taking supplements geared for recovery – like our highly antioxidant Tart Cherry Extract.

5. AVOID POLLUTANTS


As your body struggles to detox the air you breathe, the more free radicals it creates. Get an air purifier for your home, filter your water, and buy some air-purifying houseplants to help ward off pollutants.

Well Theory: Founded To Support Your Health Goals

Dr. Warner founded Well Theory according to her beliefs about functional medicine, or functional wellness, verses conventional medicine.

Take Charge Of Your Health With Well Theory
Conventional medicine often overlooks holistic, long-term lifestyle changes in favor of prescribing heavy pharmaceuticals, recommending harsh and invasive treatments like surgeries, and more in an attempt to stop pain or disease as it occurs.


Find Wellness Alternatives That Work – For You.
I think we all know that conventional and modern medicine is reactionary and piecemeal, whereas good medicine should be proactive and encompass the whole of you and your body’s systems.


How We Support You On Your Wellness Journey:
Functional healing focuses more on supporting an already healthy lifestyle – or adapting routines to create a healthier way of living – instead of merely responding to illness and injury with treatments designed to only address symptoms.


At Well Theory, we believe that you are ultimately in charge of accomplishing your health goals. We just give you the tools and resources you need to get started towards a path to better overall wellness.
