Milk Thistle

The antioxidant milk thistle has been used since Greco-Roman times to aid in maintaining healthy liver function. Several studies suggest milk thistle protects the liver from damaging toxins such as alcohol and certain drugs. The active component most responsible for milk thistle’s detoxifying effects is called silymarin. This componenet is comprised of several flavonolignands that help repair liver cells damaged by toxins as well as protecting healthy liver cells.

N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine (NAC)

NAC, arguably the pinnacle antioxidant, consists of the amino acid cysteine joined with an acetyl group causing it to be more soluble and more biovailable than L-Cysteine alone. NAC, basically a precursor to glutathione, donates cystiene to form glutathione which is found in the body and produced in the liver. NAC has been shown in studies to prevent cell death and possibly act as a ph buffer.

Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA)

Alpha Lipoic Acid is quite possibly the most novel, multifaceted, and important antioxidants available today. It aids in neutralizing free radicals in both the aqueous and lipid portions of cells, is a key player in the synergism of other antioxidants extending the metabolic life of glutathione and Coenzyme Q-10, can bolster healthy liver function, has blood lipid modulating properties that support lowered cardiac risk factors, and enhances insulin function speeding the removal of glucose from the bloodstream and ushering it into muscles.

Beta-Sitosterol

Beta-Sitosterol is one of many phytosterols, phytochemicals naturally occurring in plants, whose structure closely resembles cholesterol. It has been shown in clinical settings to lower cholesterol and has been used to treat hypercholesterolemia. Its major mechanism of action is thought to be by preventing the absorption of dietary fat in the intestines where fat is digested by increasing the flow of cholesterol binding bile acids in the digestive track excreting it in the feces. Beta-Sitosterol has also been used in many studies in treating BPH (benign prostatic hypertrophy).

Saw Palmetto

Rich in phytosterols and fatty acids, Saw Palmetto has been studied for its potential to sustain healthy prostate function. This is largely due to its supposed ability to inhibit 5-alpha reductase, an enzyme responsible for converting testosterone into DHT, and interfering with DHT’s binding ability to androgen receptors.

Quercetin

A highly active flavonoid, Quercitin, is yet another fierce antioxidant scavenging free radicals within the body.

Coenzyme Q-10 (CoQ-10)

CoQ-10 is a fat soluble, vitamin like antioxidant found in cells. The biosynthesis of CoQ-10 requires 8 other vitamins and several trace enzymes. It serves as the coenzyme for mitochondrial enzymes involved in the synthesis of ATP, which all cellular function depends. It also aids in healthy cholesterol levels because it inhibits the oxidation of LDL. repartitioning and numerous other positive effects to human health.*
