Deuterated Biomolecules
Chemically reinforced nutrients and drugs that resist oxidative damage and metabolic breakdown.
Replacing hydrogen with its heavier isotope, deuterium, at specific molecular sites strengthens chemical bonds (the kinetic isotope effect). This makes essential molecules like polyunsaturated fatty acids resistant to lipid peroxidation, a key driver of cellular aging, effectively 'armoring' the body's building blocks against wear and tear.
