About Summit Health Sciences

Summit Health Sciences, Inc. [SHS] is a registered corporation, formed in October of 2009 in the Province of Ontario, Canada, for the purpose developing and marketing medical products and technologies that address Chronic Pain [e.g. Arthritis]; Oxidative Stress* [e.g. Neurodegenerative Diseases; Vascular, Cardiac and Metabolic Diseases; Auto-Immune Diseases; Viral Infections]; and Female Sexual Enhancement. The products that address these conditions have been in development since the 1990’s, have been thoroughly tested, and are now ready for international launch.

The science of oxidative stress is taking the medical field by storm and is now the most researched topic in medicine today. Why? Because study after study shows that the "root" cause to well over 70 chronic degenerative diseases and premature aging is oxidative stress. Just as apples turn brown, butter turns rancid and iron rusts, so we too are literally rusting from the inside out everyday. But there is a way to fight back.

Oxidative stress is the damage caused to cells when there is a build up of free radicals within the body due to normal metabolic processes. Just as pile of wood burns up and produces smoke, or oxidation, so your body burns oxygen rich fuel and releases billions of free radicals in the process. Free radicals are an unstable electrically charged atom or molecule that has only one quest, it is looking to "balance" itself out by finding a mate. Because it has an odd number of electrons, it 'must' seek to find a 'mate' which is to be found inside the healthy cells of your body. When a free radical begins this quest, it literally begins slamming into the membrane walls of healthy cells to balance. These free radicals will rapidly react to other molecules by trying to 'steal' an electron from another molecule that is more willing to give one up and it is now satisfied. However, the victim molecule is now unbalanced and has itself become a free radical. This sets off an uncontrolled chain reaction within the body that causes oxidative damage at the cellular level. Imagine billions of your cells taking 10,0000 oxidative hits per day as suggested Dr. Ames, a leading researcher in oxidative stress. [Darren Owen]

The key ingredient, by far, to reducing the amount of free radicals in our system is antioxidants. Antioxidants are amazing little substances that wander through our body, giving up electrons to the greedy free radicals charging through our system. They neutralize the free radicals and allow our body to do its business of excreting them safely and without harm.

Commitment to Research

Recognizing the urgent global need for more and more science in the fight against disease, SHS is committed to a rigorous and ongoing research program and will pledge a significant amount of its future resources to stay on the leading edge of technology, all the while setting the standards, rather than following them.

To lead this Research program, SHS is pleased to have the support of some highly distinguished physicians and scientists who, in their combined efforts, oversee R and D, Clinical Trials, product efficacy and safety.
