The Science of LifeVantage
"At LifeVantage, true science is a priority.
That's why we're honored to have Dr. Joe McCord, a world-renowned scientist,
co-discoverer of superoxide dismutase and the pioneer of Free Radical Biology,
leading the scientific efforts of LifeVantage products. Dr. McCord is at the
forefront of today's cutting-edge research and new discoveries related to the
groundbreaking new science of Nrf2. Dr. McCord is actively researching,
searching for new breakthroughs that can improve health and quality of life.
We're proud of the scientific studies that back our claims. We're also proud
that our scientific studies are peer-reviewed and published.
And we're pleased to hold patents on Protandim, the most potent commercially
available Nrf2 synergizing supplement on the market. This makes its distribution
an exclusive privilege of our independent distributors." ~LifeVantage

Peer-Reviewed Studies
LifeVantage is deeply rooted in science. Science is at the heart of everything
we do. Our flagship product, Protandim®, the Nrf2 Synergizer®, has been
validated by peer-reviewed studies conducted in the laboratories of respected
universities such as The Ohio State University, LSU and the University of
Colorado Denver. The results of these studies have been published in mainstream
medical journals such as Free Radical Biology & Medicine and Enzyme
Research.

Dr. Joe McCord
"Science doesn't usually work from a scientist saying 'I have a grandiose idea'
and the scientist setting about to prove it. Rather, it's years of stumbling
around, making observations and trying to piece together facts, sharing what is
learned, and sooner or later, it becomes meaningful."
Dr. McCord received a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from Rhodes College
and a Ph.D. in Biochemistry from Duke University. He served as a junior faculty
member at Duke University's Department of Medicine; as a professor and chairman
of the Department of Biochemistry at the University of South Alabama and its
College of Medicine; and as a Professor of Medicine, Biochemistry, Biophysics,
Molecular Genetics, Microbiology and Immunity at the University of Colorado at
Denver. He serves as the head of the Division of Biochemistry and Molecular
Biology at the Webb-Waring Institute; has been a member of the LifeVantage
Corporation Board of Directors since 2006; served as LifeVantage Director of
Science on the LifeVantage Scientific Advisory Board from 2004-2007; and served
as Chief Science Officer from 2011 to 2012.
Dr. McCord has published articles in numerous scientific journals, including
the New England Journal of Medicine. He received the Discovery Award from the
Society for Free Radical Biology and Medicine (SFRBM). He received a lifetime
achievement award from the Oxygen Society for outstanding contributions to the
field of free radical biology and medicine. He chaired the Third International
Conference on Superoxide Dismutases held at the Institut Pasteur in Paris in
2004, as well as earlier conferences in the series, and he is Honorary President
of the International Society of Antioxidants in Nutrition and Health.

Elliott Cresson Medal
Dr. McCord was awarded the Elliott Cresson Medal in 1997. The Franklin Institute
Awards are among the oldest and most prestigious comprehensive science awards in
the world and honor the greatest men and women of science, engineering, and
technology. The Elliot Cresson Medal, first awarded in 1875, has also been
presented to Marie and Pierre Curie, Alexander Graham Bell, Orville Wright, and
Henry Ford.
