Anyone ever heard of Redox signalling and the supplements out there that supposedly deter disease, delay aging, help you sleep better, and a bunch of other things?
There seems to be a bunch of research out there by reputable people/universities/hospitals, so the physical condition is real enough.
I'm more interested in whether anyone has tried the supplements?

Never heard of it.

I just looked it up. It has to do with cell chemistry at the molecular level.
It may also have a contributing factor to hypertension.

I doubt the stuff they are selling will make much change.

If you have a problem with hypertension, I would see a cardiologist, not an over the counter non regulated pill.

I am not a doctor, lawyer or Indian chief.

YMMV

The studies are talking about all kinds of diseases/ailments, but no, none of them mention "supplements" to help, hence my question.

I met a gal today from RSA that was all about a certain product and mentioned she has ceased to have migraines, so it peaked my interest as a migraine sufferer. Not enough to go full blown Jim Jones believer though.

There is a lot of science behind redox signaling, but little to none about the supplements the makers claim to boost it.

This sounds like snake oil.

What seems to be the rage these days is the ketogenic diet. It might be snake oil too, but I'd say read some of this and see what folks are doing with their diets, it could be of help.

Agreed. I have changed my diet and cut out a bunch of stuff. I don't get migraines often, but I hate them so much I'd rather not have them at all
