Detox Factor

NAC

• NAC (N-acetyl-L-cysteine) is a popular ingredient that possesses strong anti-oxidant activity.
• Decreases inflammation.
• Liver and kidney protection.
• Improves lung function.
• Promotes brain health by regulating the neurotransmitter glutamate.
• May improve immune function, prevent oxidative damage to cardiac tissue, and reduce the risk of heart disease.

TUDCA

• TUDCA (Tauroursodeoxycholic acid) is a water soluble bile acid most well-known as a bile salt from bears. Large scale TUDCA as a raw material is typically created through bacterial fermentation of bile powder (which is readily available as a byproduct from the poultry industry). It is synthetically produced from natural ingredients.
• Shows great potency in treating cholestasis (bile acid backup in the liver).
• Protects and rehabilitates the liver, kidneys and numerous cellular components from stress.
• Reduces insulin resistance and is a neurological protection agent.
• Highly promising therapeutic compound for Alzheimers disease, Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, a variety of retinal disorders, strokes, obesity, heart disease, and diabetes.
• Decreases hypertension, reduces LDL cholesterol deposition, reduces atrioventricular calcification, and treats gastrointestinal disorders such as inflammatory bowel disease and gastritis.

Milk Thistle

• Milk Thistle has been used for centuries detoxification and protection.
• Contains the active compound Silymarin, which offers liver protection against the harmful effects of alcohol and certain drugs.
• May assist with blood glucose levels, have anti-obesity effects, and attenuate liver tumor growth.

Methylated B12 Vitamin

• Cobalamin (Vitamin B12) is involved in DNA synthesis, amino acid and fatty acid metabolism, nervous system functioning, and red blood cell development.
• Methylcobalamin provides additional methylation support.

Methyl B6 Vitamin

• P5P (Vitamin B6) is the active or coenzyme form of vitamin B6.
• B6 is required for various functions including muscle growth and repair, neurotransmitter functions and energy metabolism.
• Reduces methionine levels in your body, resulting in lower production of homocysteine which can help protect your body from coronary heart disease, hypertension and cerebral vascular disease.

Methyl Folate

• Supports healthy methylation in the body (helps with the efficient production of serotonin, norepinephrine and epinephrine, and nitric oxide).
• Most commonly known as the “pregnancy supplement” as it helps prevent neural tube defects (NTDs), folate is involved with DNA production, cell reproduction and homocysteine metabolism.
• Folic Acid is synthetically derived and can present deleterious effects if overconsumed. Needs to undergo conversion into more bioactive forms of folate in the body.
• Folinic Acid is a metabolically active form of folic acid (does not require enzymatic conversion) and assists with DNA repair.

Artichoke Extract

• Artichoke leaf extract may protect your liver from damage and promote the growth of new tissue.
• It also increases the production of bile, which helps remove harmful toxins from your liver.
• Studies have shown artichoke leaf use lead to decreased inflammation and liver cell death in people who had fatty liver disease.

Curcumin

• Curcumin is the active ingredient of turmeric. It is an anti-inflammatory molecule with anti-cancer properties.
• Also shown to help alleviate cognitive decline associated with aging, reduce lipid and plaque levels in arteries, and reduce diabetes risk.
• Curcumin has poor bioavailability and should be paired with piperine (black pepper extract); 20mg for every 500mg curcumin. Curcumin absorption up to 2,000% has been noted in human studies.

Alpha Lipoic Acid

• Alpha Lipoic Acid is involved in energy metabolism blood glucose metabolism as well as antioxidant activity.
• ALA reduces oxidation and inflammation, reversing some of the oxidative damage related to the effects of aging.
• Protects against heart diseases, liver diseases, diabetes, and neurological decline associated with aging.

Dandelion Root

• Taraxacum officinale, also known as dandelion, has a diuretic effect when ingested.
• Is a good source of potassium, at approx. 10-15% of the pre-dried weight.
• Adipose cells (fat cells) are water dense, and increasing the diuretic effect during fat loss phases can assist with a dry, hard look to the physique.

D-Limonene

• A powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant.
• Plants high in limonene have been used to help dissolve gallstones.
• New research indicates that limonene may ease metabolic disorders and aid in weight loss.

Zinc TRAACs

• Zinc is a mineral that plays a role in antioxidant enzymes, brain function, the immune system, and proper hormone production.

Riboflavin

• Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) is required for the metabolism of fats and glucose, the synthesis of red blood cells, the production and regulation of certain hormones, and healthy methylation (helps with the efficient production of serotonin, norepinephrine and epinephrine, and nitric oxide).

AstraGin

• Shown to dramatically increase the absorption and bioavailability of a variety of nutrients, such as peptides, amino acids, glucose, vitamins and minerals, phytonutrients, and various sports nutrition supplements.
• Supports the gut ecosystem by providing a favorable microbiome environment.
• Enhances the immune system.

Bioperine

• The trademarked version of piperine, a black pepper extract that increases the absorption of various nutrients such as curcumin (up to 2,000% in humans) as well as inhibits the breakdown of fat-burning compounds such as caffeine and the catecholamines, prolonging the effects of preworkout stimulants and increasing their bioavailability.
• Piperine also reduces LDL cholesterol and plasma lipids while elevating HDL cholesterol and the thyroid hormones.
