BioPhotonic Scanner Featured on Dr. Oz Show Now Available in Boulder Colorado Network Family Wellness Center offering Antioxidant Readings with Revolutionary New Device.

BOULDER, CO, November 21, 2011 (Press-News.org) They're found in sports drinks, face creams and even body washes and we're taught they're extremely beneficial to us, but when asked what antioxidants actually are or what they do, most Americans likely can't give an answer. The truth is, antioxidants are DNA protecting molecules that fight cancer, heart disease and diabetes, to name a few. A revolutionary new device called the BioPhotonic Scanner measures a person's overall antioxidant levels, has been featured on Dr. Oz national television show and is now available at Network Family Wellness Center in Boulder Colorado.

"In reality, it's very easy to get antioxidants," explains Dr. Daniel Knowles of Network Family Wellness Center, which houses the BioPhotonic Scanner. "What surprises our patients most is in hearing how few antioxidants they are actually receiving." With a simple blue-light test, our
BioPhotonic Scanner reads what's called a Skin Carotenoid Score. Carotenoids are the red, yellow and orange pigments found in edible fruits and vegetables and each carotenoid molecule can generally hold off more than 20 free radical hits before destroyed. "To date, the Bio Scanner's score is the most accurate marker of a person's overall antioxidant health status in the world."

The Bio Scanner gives personalized, instant results, is non-invasive and requires no bodily fluids, tissue samples, or a laboratory.

Dr. Knowles' Top Antioxidant to Consume List:
* VEGETABLES: Carrots, squash, sweet potatoes, broccoli, tomatoes, kale, collard greens and corn
* FRUIT: Vitamin C rich citrus fruit, peaches, cantaloupe, berries and strawberries (look for bright colors)
* NUTS/SEEDS: Nuts, seeds and whole grains
* PROTEIN: Fish, shellfish, red meat, eggs, chicken
* RED WINE: Red wine is a particularly rich source of antioxidants

Every day, we each receive an average of 70,000 free radical hits. "That's an incredible amount and people need to know the dangers they're facing each day," warns Dr. Knowles. "I hope this information and brand new, state-of-the-art technology encourages people of all ages to get their own scores and create a personalized plan of action to consume more fruits and vegetables and the right supplements. If you want to be healthy, there is no denying that beefing up antioxidant levels is the way to do it."

Dr. Daniel Knowles is available for interview along with on camera or in-studio BioPhotonic Scanner demonstrations. Media requests: Please contact Dr. Knowles at 303.998.1000 or http://www.networkwellnesscenters.com.
