Virtue (& Beauty) Are Downstream of SuperOxide Dismutase 🎙️ with François Vix of GliSODin

Published 1 week, 5 days ago

Description

Is beauty vain, or is beauty, instead, a philosophical treasure that refracts the potency of our inner life force? Is physical beauty something we've programmed to respond to by the 5000 ads a day? Is the obsession with one's own physical beauty a sign of a deeply corrupt soul? If all you have to offer is that which you did not earn, you'll be terrified to lose it. Is the lustful obsession with physical beauty the way of what appears to be a man, but is really an animal? OR is physical beauty a gift from the divine (or evolution if you prefer)? A reward for when we draw nearer to the most metaphorically divine act, that of creating new life in our own image.

These are the most pragmatic of philosophical questions. I discuss them with François Vix, who has dedicated the past two decades to advancing health through scientific breakthroughs in the beauty and wellness space. Most notably, he pioneered the use of a stable, bioactive form of SuperOxide Dismutase (SOD), bringing GliSODin to more than 50 countries.

I've trialed their two products: GliSODin Anti-Aging and VSOD. These are more than just beauty products, with over 20 clinical trials backing SOD’s effect on health and longevity, it may be one of the keys for aspirational beautiful immortals.
