Brand-new pill-free health supplement contains five essential nutrients to help the body to defend against the damaging effects of air pollution
Alongside chronic cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, recognisable symptoms of oxidative stress caused by air pollution can include fatigue, brain fog, headaches, muscle/joint pain, wrinkles, and grey hair
Helping to combat climate change and support the removal of harmful CO2 from the atmosphere, BetterYou will plant a tree for every Air Defence® Oral Spray sold.
With 91 per cent of the world’s population now living in areas where air quality exceeds guideline limits[i], Barnsley-based natural health innovator BetterYou has launched a brand-new Air Defence® Oral Spray. The unique blend of vitamins B6, B12 and D3, folic acid, and selenium helps the body to defend against the damaging effects of air pollution from the inside out.
Encompassing B-vitamins – which research has identified as key nutrients in supporting the body’s ability to better defend against the damaging free radicals found in air pollution – this pill-free supplement is designed to protect cells from oxidative stress that can be caused by fine particles in the air, support the body’s immune system and contribute to normal red blood cell formation. Current rates of air pollution can have a huge impact on the body – specifically on the functioning of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems with other symptoms of oxidative stress ranging from fatigue to brain fog; and from grey hairs to wrinkles.
Some of the most harmful pollutants measure less than a strand of hair, virus, or molecule; they invisibly infiltrate the body, penetrating and damaging cells, so building the body’s resilience to these pollutants and preserving long-term health is crucial.
A clinical study, involving scientists from universities in America, Canada, China, Mexico, Singapore, and Sweden, found that a combination of key nutrients could help in the body’s ability to control adverse effects caused by small particle invasion.
Scientifically proven as an effective alternative to tablets and capsules, the award-winning spray delivers nutrients directly to the bloodstream bypassing primary processing by the gut. The tiny droplets within the spray absorb quickly into the buccal membrane of the inner cheek, providing fast and efficient nutrient uptake.
Certified vegetarian and guaranteed palm oil derivative free, the great-tasting natural peach and pomegranate flavoured supplement is also kind to the planet, contained in 100% recyclable, planet-friendly packaging.
Andrew Thomas, Founder and CEO at BetterYou, says: “Public Health England has acknowledged that poor air quality is the largest environmental risk to public health in the UK, with long-term exposure thought to contribute towards chronic conditions such as cardiovascular and respiratory diseases.
“With lockdown restrictions easing and life starting to return to ‘normal’, it’s more important than ever for people to protect their body against the damaging effects that pollution can cause to our health. Air Defence® is a simple and highly effective way to defend against these harmful pollutants in a once-daily oral spray.”
Everyone should have the right to breathe clean air, that’s why BetterYou has partnered with Earthly – carbon-busting specialists – to support their trailblazing mangrove planting project run by Eden Reforestation in Madagascar.
Mangroves are important for the climate crisis as estimates suggest that they sequester carbon at a rate of two to four times greater than mature tropical forests. Ultimately, each mangrove tree removes around 308kg of CO2 from the atmosphere over the course of its 25-year lifecycle.
What’s more, mangrove forests provide numerous other natural benefits, including coastal defences from floods and storm surges and vital habitat for many species. The project is also positive for people, providing employment and essential work hours for local communities.
To support the removal of harmful CO2 from the atmosphere, BetterYou has pledged to plant a tree for every Air Defence® Oral Spray sold, to help sequester carbon from the atmosphere, to improve air quality and create a climate positive world.
