Nucleotides Explained

What are nucleotides?
Nucleotides are the building blocks of DNA and RNA, with DNA consisting of 3 billion nucleotides. Every organism must create new cells to continue living. Cell division is an important part of this process. With the help of nucleotides and RNA, a typical cell divides, 'unzipping' the DNA and creating two new cells. For example, in an adult human, millions of cells divide every second just to maintain the body!

When our body is fighting bacterial or viral infections, or is under stress, we need additional new cells for fighting off infection and coping with stress.

Nucell provides the body with ready-made nucleotides and RNA, which helps speed up the process of creating new cells.

Certain living cells, such as those of the liver, are able to cover their needs of nucleotide building blocks, but nucleotides from other sources (such as food) are required by:

• intestinal mucosal cells
• bone marrow cells
• some brain cells
• white blood cells
• red blood cells

Nucell is a unique formulation, from natural sources, of high-level concentrations of nucleotides and RNA.

What is DNA?
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is nucleic acid found in all living cells and and transmits genetic information from parents to offspring in the form of genes.

What is RNA?
RNA (ribonucleic acid) is a nucleic acid involved in the production of proteins. It acts as a 'messenger' for the DNA.
