NRF2 (Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2)
NRF2 (Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2) is a protein that plays a key role in protecting cells from damage caused by stressors like toxins and free radicals. When activated, NRF2 moves to the cell nucleus and turns on genes that produce antioxidants and other protective molecules. This helps cells neutralize harmful substances, reduce inflammation, and maintain overall cellular health. NRF2 is important for preventing disease and supporting aging, acting as a natural defense mechanism to keep cells functioning properly under stress.
