Commercial Synthesis of ERGO Anti Aging Antioxidant Pioneered by OXIS


In this age of carcinogens and accelerated aging due to pollution, antioxidants have become very popular. These substances, mostly from plants, have proven to be effective in counteracting free radical damage. Free radicals are reactive atoms that bind to cells, resulting in damage at the molecular level. The body naturally deals with free radicals, but when these destructive atoms are too much, oxidative stress happens. This is what causes premature aging in people. An antioxidant can serve as an anti aging agent in the body by protecting key molecules of the body’s cells.

A lot of antioxidant products are available now. Two of the most popular are resveratrol and glutathione. In tests, these have proven to be potent in curbing the aging process. But few people know about a powerful antioxidant called L-Ergothioneine or ERGO, for short. This is likely the next antioxidant to take on the wellness industry by storm. It’s taken a while to be commercially available because of its scarcity; it requires meticulous extraction and processing from sources that are natural, but limited.

ERGO is found in small amounts in microorganisms like ergot (left; here attached to grain), and in meat, milk, mushrooms, and grapes. The food that people normally eat do not provide enough ERGO to effectively promote anti aging and there is normally too little in the body. Commercial production of ERGO proved to be impractical in the past. Technology has since advanced and one company, OXIS International, Inc., has taken its penny stocks and took stakes into being a pioneer in synthesizing ERGO.

OXIS now has a patented manufacturing process for ERGO, which solves the usual problems of extraction and synthesis into viable products. This new technology now allows L-Ergothioneine to be easily available to the consumer. The benefits of ERGO can now be had through OXIS in its quality nutraceutical products designed to encourage anti aging.

OXIS already has patents and pending applications for its antioxidant products which are therapeutic, cosmetic, proprietary, and clinical in nature. The company started off with two primary products based on ERGO called Ergo-Pur™ and Ergo-Plex™. The first is pure L-Ergothioneine and the other combines this with other antioxidants. It’s been proven that ERGO works with and maintains the level of other antioxidants—giving a boosting effect in the body. ERGO provides antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties for overall health. OXIS is partnering with industry leaders to produce the best nutraceutical products to give people all over the world the chance for better health with ERGO.

How Municipalities Create Revenue from Waste to Energy Technology


Here’s a technology form N-Viro International Corp. that few people know about but is already changing the way municipalities are dealing with the problem of organic waste disposal. The reason is that it creates renewable energy from bio-solid waste products from municipalities; solving a perennial problem and generating income at the same time. It makes use of a waste to energy process that produces sustainable opportunity fuels and pasteurized fertilizer—products that are of great market value in this age. When municipalities used to reek with unwanted sludge in their drains and sewers, now there’s money and opportunities for the communities. By using this waste to energy technology, it would be like municipalities have struck gold or oil.

There are different sources of alternative energy and fertilizer, but perhaps the most practical sources are waste products. That’s what companies like N-Viro does. It’s a company that’s been moving for two decades already to make beneficial products from wastes a standard in soil-enrichment and power generation in the United States and elsewhere.  Its patented processes are able to turn organic and other wastes into useful products for agriculture and power generation—two industries that are affected by climate change and fossil fuel shortage.

N-Viro has developed and tested its products in places where the technology is already licensed to municipalities. To make N-Viro Soil, its soil enrichment product, the company combines bio-solid organic wastes with alkaline byproducts from the cement and electricity-generation industries. The materials go through a defined disinfection and pasteurization process to ensure it is safe for agricultural use. On the other hand, its N-Viro Fuel is a compound of coal from Eastern Ohio and either bio-solids or manure. The resulting waste to energy product, now called “clean coal,” promises to give new life to former coal-burning power plants. Tests at the Michigan State University plant resulted in passing environmental scores.

The green renewable energy technologies used by N-Viro have been around for a while and when N-Viro was just starting a couple of decades ago, it was already ahead of its time, according to CEO Timothy Kasmoch (top; left). Now that there are global warming- and fossil fuel- problems, N-Viro takes the lead in educating and offering municipalities in the US and other parts of the world to use its technology to help solve bio-solid waste disposal problems and generate much-needed revenue at the same time.

The people behind N-Viro are excited because there are bigger opportunity now for municipalities because of the greater volume of wastes produced by various industries. Let’s not forget the sewage from households that only rots in the drains of cities, polluting soil and waterways. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) upholds strict laws like the Clean Water Act which regulates new pollutants in sewage sludge. Regulations require that such wastes be dumped in landfills, composted, or incinerated. But with the use of N-Viro green technology, there will be less need for a regulatory approach in the management of wastes. Any program concerning it will also become an incentive for waste-collection. The more recyclable waste material accumulated, the more money will be generated for municipalities. The only thing they have to do to make this happen is to be a licensee of N-Viro. http://www.nviro.com
