OXIS International, Inc. is engaged in the research, development and sale of products that counteract the harmful effects of “oxidative stress.”

Oxidative stress refers to the situations in which the body’s antioxidant and other defensive abilities to combat free radicals (highly reactive species of oxygen and nitrogen) are overwhelmed and one’s normal healthy balance is either lost or severely compromised.

Advancing Oxidative Stress Technology Oxis International, Inc. (OTCBB: OXIS) is the premiere provider for the potent antioxidant, Ergothioneine and through their patented synthetic manufacturing process remains the only significant commercial source of pure l-ergothioneine worldwide.

ERGOTHIONEINE…THE SUPER ANTIOXIDANT FOR NUTRACEUTICAL, COSMECEUTICAL AND THERAPEUTICS

ERGO is naturally occurring, water soluble, amino acid multifaceted antioxidant produced by microbes in the soil. It is most commonly found in various species of mushrooms and grapes, meats and dairy products. However, it is not commercially practical to extract ERGO from these natural sources and it essentially impossible to ingest a diet that provides enough ERGO to take full advantage of its potential health benefits. Humans and most animals typically have low levels of ERGO since the amount of ERGO in the diet is relatively small.

ERGO is one of the most potent, multifaceted biological compounds with appreciable antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, neuro-protective and other protective properties. ERGO acts by itself, or in combination with other natural compounds to improve the body’s own intrinsic defenses against oxidative stress.

BENEFITS OF ERGO

Some of the potential benefits of ERGO include its ability to:

• Conserve and maintain the levels of other antioxidants such as Vitamin E, Vitamin C and glutathione;
• Increase respiration and the oxidation of fat (possibly contributing to increased energy and exercise capacity);
• Protect mitochondria from damage (this is important because potentially damaging reactive oxygen species are generated when oxygen is normally metabolized in mitochondria,
• Reduce the damaging effects of environmental ultraviolet radiation (likely to be important in protecting the eyes against cataract producing oxidative injury);
• Neutralize increased oxidative stress by providing an ROS (reactive oxygen species) and RNS (reactive nitrogen species) scavenging capacity, a property that protects key molecules in the body; and,

Protect against the effects of neurotoxins that are believed to have a casual role in the development and progression of cognitive decline.
