First, it provides diindolylmethane (DIM) to promote healthy estrogen metabolism and create a better balance of estrogen metabolites (2-OH, 4-OH, 16alpha-OH) through phase I cytochrome P450 enzyme induction and promotion of 2-hydroxylation. Second, the action of DIM is complemented by providing sulforaphane glucosinolate (SGS), which protects tissues from unrestrained oxidative stress and uniquely supports phase Il detoxification of harmful estrogen metabolites (e.g., estrogen quinones) and xenoestrogens. These actions may be important for the health of estrogen-sensitive tissues, such as those of the breast, uterus, cervix, and prostate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIM (diindolylmethane)\u003c\/strong\u003e DIM is an advanced metabolite of indole-3-carbinol (13C), the indole found in cruciferous vegetables.

This science has been validated in animal and human studies wherein supplementation with DIM was shown to increase the ratio of the protective, \"good\" 2-hydroxyestrone (2-OH) to 16alpha hydroxyestrone (16alpha-OH).123) In a study of postmenopausal women, DIM-treated subjects, relative to placebo, showed an increase of 47% in 2-OH\/16alpha-OH.

The SGS broccoli seed extract used in Hormone Protect is a super vegetable that delivers extended antioxidant support and boasts a very high level of glucoraphanin (13%). Research suggests that when SGS is broken down to sulforaphane (its active form), it safely and effectively upregulates the Nrf2 system, activates the antioxidant response element (ARE), enhances the production of important antioxidants, and activates vital phase II detoxification enzymes. These mechanisms provide protection from toxins, xenobiotics (e.g., xenoestrogens), and reactive intermediates formed after phase I detoxification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeutralizing Reactive Estrogen Quinones with SGS\u003c\/strong\u003e According to Bolton et al, the oxidation of catechol estrogens (2-OH and 4-OH) via cytochrome P450 enzymes generates reactive electrophilic estrogen quinones and reactive oxygen species (ROS) through redox cycling.[8] Formation of quinones is largely minimized via phase II methylation, which produces methoxyestrogens. However, if methylation is suboptimal, estrogen quinones, which can cause DNA damage in estrogen-sensitive tissues, must be neutralized via other phase Il enzymes such as quinone reductase. According to researchers, estrogen quinones are now recognized as a significant mechanism of estrogen-mediated cell damage. [8,9] A promising strategy to address their deleterious effects involves the use of agents to favorably shift the balance between phase I and phase II enzymes.[9] In fact, phase II enzymes such as quinone reductase, heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), and glutathione S-transferase (GST) have been suggested as targets for reducing these highly reactive estrogen quinones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSulforaphane has been identified as an agent that possesses the ability to potently induce phase II detoxification enzymes including quinone reductase, HO-1, GST, and glutathione reductase as well as to inhibit phase I enzymes involved in activation.[10-12) In the case of estrogen quinones, quinone reductase protects cells from oxidative damage by two-electron reduction, thus suppressing oxidative cycling and reactive oxygen species generation. Sulforaphane consumption is associated with supporting cell-line health in humans, and animal research shows that sulforaphane metabolites can be found in target tissues, along with significant induction of quinone reductase and HO-1.

In examining L-theanine's effect on cognition, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 91 subjects suggested that individuals taking a combination of L-theanine and green tea extract experienced significant increases in theta waves in several areas of the brain, indicative of increased cognitive alertness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn cell studies, L-theanine appears to support neuronal health despite the presence of environmental toxins that ordinarily would increase the vulnerability of nigral dopaminergic neurons and negatively affect their function.

The ubiquinone form of CoQ10 is produced in the mitochondria, where it directly participates in energy production by accepting electrons in the electron transport chain. Through the action of an oxidoreductase enzyme, ubiquinone is rapidly converted to ubiquinol, the lipid- soluble form that supports antioxidant activity throughout the body. Conversion of ubiquinone to ubiquinol declines with age, particularly after age 40. Supplementation may help maintain normal levels of ubiquinol in the body as well as address drug-induced nutrient depletion of CoQ10. Until recently, the ubiquinol form had not been effective as a supplement because it was chemically unstable and easily oxidized. CoQmax Ubiquinol contains a patented, absorbable form of ubiquinol that maintains its structure and stability in the gastrointestinal environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAntioxidant Status Oxidative stress is detrimental to the integrity and function of cell membranes and tissues, and ultimately to DNA itself. Antioxidant status must be maintained throughout the body in order to protect vulnerable cells. Research indicates that ubiquinol supports antioxidant activity, including the regeneration of vitamins C and E, helping to maintain normal levels of free radical activity in the body. Researchers also suggest a possible role for CoQ10 in redox control of cell signaling and gene expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCholesterol Antioxidant protection is vital to maintaining the integrity of cholesterol and its role as a precursor to vitamin D, hormones, cell membranes, and brain tissue.

In the event of reduced production, or drug-induced nutrient depletion, physicians recommend supplementation with CoQ10 to help maintain normal levels in the body. Related depletion of vitamin E in lymphocytes may raise further concerns about patients' vulnerability to oxidative stress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeart Health Research suggests that patients experienced significant support of cardiac function after receiving supplemental ubiquinol (an average 450-580 mg per day).

However, healthy tendons and ligaments do indeed have an intrinsic capacity for repair, which is controlled by resident fibroblasts and their surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM). Fibroblasts (e.g., tenocytes) are responsible for producing the ECM and therefore the proteoglycans (protein\/mucopolysaccharide complex) and collagen needed for tissue repair. The key is to stimulate this process. In vitro and in vivo research suggests SynovX Tendon \u0026amp; Ligament does just that.

The molecular structure and organization of tendon and ligament collagen fibrils are key determinants in the ability of these tissues to endure mechanical force and fuel self-repair. While collagen provides much of tendon\/ligament structure and strength, mucopolysaccharides are said to provide the \"glue\" that holds them together and allows them to stretch, flex, bend, and maintain their resilience. Mucopolysaccharides also known as glycosaminoglycans or GAGS are a critical component of ECM and are important in maintaining structural integrity, lubrication, and spacing of collagen fibers. Furthermore, mucopolysaccharides have been shown to increase collagen and non-collagenous protein synthesis in cultures of bovine tenocytes and ligament cells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamin C This vitamin helps maintain tendon\/ligament structure and biomechanical properties by stimulating collagen biosynthesis.In Vitro IL-1beta (interleukin-1 beta) is a cytokine associated with adverse tendon\/ligament changes.

Tenocyte cultures treated with 250, 500, and 1000 µg\/ml of SynovX Tendon \u0026amp; Ligament showed no signs of cytotoxicity or other negative effects on the viability of cells. The major findings were that this formula counteracted the negative effects of IL-1 beta by:  protecting tenocytes from degenerative morphological changes, cellular degeneration, and apoptosis, (2) reversing the downregulation of collagen type I and beta 1-integrin receptor expression, increasing tenomodulin production, and (4) causing a significant dose-and time-dependent increase in proliferation and viability of tenocytes. These results demonstrated that SynovX Tendon \u0026amp; Ligament supports tenocyte viability and proliferation and type I collagen synthesis. Furthermore, the treated cells appeared healthy; displayed an abundant and well-organized ECM; and exhibited high levels of euchromatin, indicating that the cells were very active and had a high rate of protein (i.e., collagen) biosynthesis. [In another in vitro test, human tenocytes incubated with SynovX Tendon \u0026amp; Ligament for 10 days showed a strong stimulatory effect on cell proliferation that exceeded the proliferation seen in cells incubated with (IGF-1) insulin- like growth factor 1 (positive control).

Deficiency is common. The average American diet is thought to provide about 40% of the daily magnesium need, and reports from the World Health Organization have suggested that three quarters of Americans fall short of the daily requirement. Furthermore, because magnesium is predominantly an intracellular cation, serum magnesium remains a poor predictor of tissue magnesium content and availability; therefore, deficiency can sometimes go undetected.\" Magnesium deficiency can result from poor dietary intake, poor absorption, and excessive losses through urine, stool, perspiration, or lactation. Certain drugs, certain herbs, poor kidney function, excessive alcohol intake, and drinking mostly \"soft\" water can contribute to magnesium depletion. It is also important to note that physical and emotional stresses increase the need for magnesium and that hypomagnesemia and stress potentiate each other's negative effects. Moreover, the adrenergic effects of psychological stress cause movement of magnesium from intracellular to extracellular space, which increases urinary excretion and depletion of body stores.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMagnesium participates in the development and maintenance of bones and teeth; the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats; the formation of cells and tissues; the modulation of cytokines; and the maintenance of muscle function, including the heart.[1.6.7] Magnesium, in the form of magnesium citrate, is often used in the short term for bowel movement support, and some individuals find it useful for preventing calcium crystallization in the kidneys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBioavailability\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn vitro and in vivo research has demonstrated superior solubility and bioavailability of magnesium citrate compared to magnesium oxide.

Dual-phase optimizers may further balance the phases of detoxification by supporting antioxidant defense systems and binding free radicals formed between the two phases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExamples of dual-phase optimizers in MedCaps DPO include ellagic acid from pomegranate, catechins from green tea extract, and glucosinolates from watercress powder. Ellagic acid induces phase II enzymes at the gene level and ensures these are not over-induced by modulation of CYP1A (cytochrome P450 1A) activities. In addition, ellagic acid can bind directly to DNA to protect it and can also bind directly to some toxic substances to promote their excretion. The catechins in green tea support antioxidant activity and may bind directly to toxic substances as well, performing dual functions during detoxification. When toxic substances are encountered, catechins modulate detoxification by limiting phase I enzyme production.[3] Glucosinolates are precursors to isothiocyanates. Watercress, in particular, is metabolized by gut flora into phenylethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC), which, like the other ingredients above, can selectively inhibit phase I enzymes and induce the activities of phase II enzymes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLiver detoxification is further supported with the inclusion of silymarin (milk thistle seed extract), artichoke leaf extract, and alpha-lipoic acid, all of which are selected for their hepatoprotective properties.

These hormones circulate in the bloodstream and work on every living tissue and cell to regulate metabolism and growth. Of the body's iodine pool (about 15 mgs in adults), 80% is contained in the thyroid gland. Iodine is primarily used as a substrate for the manufacture of T4 and T3, and healthy iodine status is imperative for normal thyroid function and thyroid hormone biosynthesis.[2] Because excessive iodine intake, like inadequate iodine intake, can negatively impact thyroid function, total supplementary and dietary iodine should be considered. Medcaps T3 provides 75 mcg of iodine from Atlantic kelp in each serving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSelenium While the role of iodine has long been known, the mechanisms by which selenium exerts its beneficial effects on the thyroid gland have been elucidated more recently. According to Arthur et al, \"Selenium is an essential component of many selenoproteins that regulate thyroid hormone synthesis, preserve thyroid integrity in conditions of marked oxidative stress, and control hormone metabolism in nonthyroidal tissues where the prohormone T4 is converted to biologically active T3 or its inactive isomer rT3.\" The interactive and complementary relationship between iodine and selenium has become an area of interest and research. For instance, in an animal study, it was observed that a high iodine intake in the presence of selenium deficiency may permit thyroid tissue damage as a result of low thyroidal glutathione peroxidase activity. It was further noted that even a low selenium intake helped normalize circulating T4 concentration in the presence of iodine deficiency. Evaluation of emerging data supports \"selenostasis\" as an important aspect of thyroid health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eZinc and Vitamins A and D Research suggests that inadequate intakes of zinc and vitamins A and D may impact thyroid hormone metabolism, circulating thyroid hormone concentrations, the thyroid's response to iodine prophylaxis, and antithyroid antibody levels. Researchers further propose that vitamins A and D could increase the transcriptional activity of the thyroid hormone receptor-regulated genes. Expression of these genes affects growth, differentiation, development, and metabolic homeostasis. More studies into the rolesof zinc and vitamins A and D will help to gain a better understanding of how these nutrients interact with thyroid hormones, iodine, selenium, and each other to influence thyroid health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRetinyl palmitate is used in this formula rather than beta-carotene because certain individuals may lack the ability to effectively convert beta-carotene or other carotenoids into vitamin A. It is also important to note that vitamin D facilitates intestinal calcium absorption and therefore helps maintain the ratio of calcium to phosphorous, which can be affected by low thyroid function and certain thyroid therapies. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamin E and Rosemary \"Oxidative stress\" denotes an imbalance between the production of oxidants and their elimination by antioxidative systems. Studies support the concept of reducing oxidative stress in order to protect thyroid cell health and maintain normal thyroid cell growth and lifecycle. Furthermore, because active oxygen radicals can inhibit the activity of an enzyme involved in the conversion of T4 to T3, reducing oxidative stress may have a two-fold application in thyroid health. Antioxidative components in Medcaps T3, such as vitamin E and rosemary, may help protect thyroid cells\/tissue and also support the enzymatic conversion of T4 to T3 by scavenging damaging free radicals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGuggulsterones and Ashwagandha Researchers have demonstrated the positive influence guggul extract can have on thyroid function and blood lipid metabolism.

An important aspect of good nutrition is micronutrition (vitamins and minerals). Micronutrients play a role in converting food to energy; building and repairing tissues and DNA; manufacturing neurotransmitters, hormones, and other modulators in the body; breaking down and detoxifying xenobiotics and medications; and maintaining growth, reproduction, and health. According to research by the USDA and other organizations, the American diet is lacking micronutrients. In fact, nine out of 10 Americans are missing key micronutrients. Common culprits may be food-production and storage techniques, poor food choices, and nutrient-depleting preparation methods. Whatever the cause, the bottom line is that children and adults are not consuming enough nutrient-rich foods to meet all their most basic vitamin and mineral needs. What’s more, the recommended intakes (e.g., %DV, DRIs, EARs, RDAs) are designed to meet the minimum needs of some healthy individuals; they are not designed to meet the requirements of all individuals, especially the chronically ill. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBalanced Profile Vitamins and minerals work synergistically and cooperatively when present in proper amounts.

In cell-line studies, orthosilicic acid has been found to stimulate type I collagen synthesis. Type I collagen is a dense, heavily cross-linked protein that creates an extremely high tensile strength and contributes to bone strength and flexibility. These strong collagen strands are believed to create core-post \"binding sites\" for calcium and other bone minerals. 16-8) A 12-month, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled (RDBPC) trial suggested that supplementing with ch-OSA conferred an additional benefit to a calcium\/vitamin D regimen by improving bone formation markers and femoral neck T-scores.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamin D3 Cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) is the form of vitamin D that is endogenously synthesized in skin during exposure to sunlight. Unfortunately, several factors can limit this production including smog, sunblock, and geographic location. For many individuals, exogenous supplementation may be beneficial. Vitamin D plays a role in bone metabolism, BMD, and calcium\/ phosphorus status; researchers suggest that vitamin D supplementation may decrease bone turnover and increase BMD. Several randomized placebo- controlled trials with vitamin D and calcium showed significant improvement in maintenance of bone integrity. One randomized, population-based, three-year trial indicated that supplementation with vitamin D (800 IU\/d) and calcium (1000 mg\/d) had a positive and statistically significant impact on total body bone integrity. A pooled analysis evaluating 11 RDBPC trials concluded that vitamin D supplementation (\u0026gt;800 IU daily) was favorable in maintaining hip and nonvertebral bone integrity in those aged 65 and older.¹² The vitamin D3 in OSAplex Vegan is from an edible lichen source and is vegan-suitable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCalcium as Microcrystalline Hydroxyapatite Concentrate (MCHC) OSAplex and OSAplex MK-7 contain Ossopan MCHC, a premium, standardized bone extract from New Zealand bovine.

Vitamin K supports bone integrity by moderating the synthesis of prostaglandin E2 and interleukin-6 by osteoclasts.[19,20].

CS is thought to enhance joint health by supporting endogenous synthesis and preventing degradation of other joint GAGs. Oral administration of CS (800-1200 mg\/d) has proven to positively influence joint space width, joint comfort, and fluid accumulation.- SynovX Protect provides 1,200 mg of CS in the recommended four-capsule-per-day dosage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pharmaceutical grade, low-molecular-weight CS in CS BIO-ACTIVE has demonstrated higher bioavailability!5) and greater biological activity than other CS sources.

One joint study shows that glucosamine and MSM achieve better results when combined than when administered individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMSM's effect on free radicals also appears to support muscle recovery after exercise. Studies suggest that the significant increase in total antioxidant capacity observed subsequent to MSM supplementation was the key factor responsible for reducing muscle soreness and breakdown, which can occur after rigorous exercise. Though relatively high levels of MSM were used in the studies-1.5-3 grams total per day in Kalman's study and 50 milligrams per kilogram per day in Barmaki's study -the one gram of MSM provided in two servings of SynovX Protect can contribute to MSM dosing for exercise recovery.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"XYMOGEN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44984471421141,"sku":"20794","price":85.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0629\/3582\/6645\/files\/722537511919_en_01_c342ad65-e248-4d56-9c4f-1bca74c468fd.png?v=1749057579"},{"product_id":"xymogen-memorall-60c","title":"Xymogen MemorAll 60c","description":"\u003ch3\u003eMemorAll\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemorAll is a unique combination of nutrients and botanicals that supports cognitive function and memory.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"XYMOGEN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44984471847125,"sku":"20795","price":74.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0629\/3582\/6645\/files\/722537512442_en_01_9e1ad321-3f9f-45ab-9cb2-cc8e617177ac.png?v=1749057579"},{"product_id":"xymogen-femquil-120c","title":"Xymogen Femquil 120c","description":"\u003cp\u003eFemquil® delivers biologically active folate and other key methylation vitamins in combination with a targeted blend of ingredients to encourage hormone balance, help modify xenoestrogen activity, and restore tranquility.

In an unstressed state, Nrf2 is anchored in the cytoplasm by its specific inhibitor Keap1 (kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1). Keap1 functions as a sensor for oxidants and electrophilic xenobiotics. In the presence of any of these substances, Keap1 gives up its inhibition of Nrf2. This action stabilizes Nrf2, allowing it to accumulate in the nucleus and bind to the antioxidant response element (ARE) located in the enhancers of its target genes. Under this circumstance, Nrf2 then upregulates a variety of antioxidant enzymes and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/natures-source.com\/collections\/detox-and-liver-support-supplements\"\u003edetoxifying\u003c\/a\u003e proteins.[1-3]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA variety of natural substances have been shown to influence the Nrf2 pathway:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGlucoraphanin, a naturally occurring isothiocyanate derived from broccoli, is hydrolyzed into sulforaphane (SFN) upon consumption. SFN induces phase 2 cytoprotective enzymes, supporting the body’s cellular response systems. SFN may modify critical cysteine residues of Keap1, leading to Nrf2 stabilization and activation of the ARE, thereby inducing phase 2 enzymes.[3] A review of various Nrf2 activators suggests that broccoli-derived SFN has exhibited more capacity than many other phytochemicals to activate Nrf2 to induce the expression of cytoprotective genes that play a key role in cellular defense mechanisms, including redox status and detoxification. This activity can be attributed to its lipophilic nature and low molecular weight, which make it highly bioavailable.*[4]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePterostilbene (PTS) is a naturally occurring phenolic compound\/analog of resveratrol that has demonstrated cytotoxic, cytokine-inhibiting, and antioxidant properties.[5] It has been suggested that PTS can increase the protein and mRNA expression of Nrf2.

In rat and animal studies, resveratrol\/pterostilbene have been shown to upregulate a significant number of genes involved in mitochondrial function as well as to modulate cholinergic neurotransmission and activate the Nrf2 pathway to promote transcription of antioxidant genes.[2,5] Although research has provided\u003cbr\u003einsights into the mechanism of action of PTS, additional research is warranted to elucidate its roles in the human body.*[6]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCurcumin’s array of biological activities stems from its cytokine-balancing activity, antioxidant properties, and induction of phase 2 detoxifying enzymes such as heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1).[7] Because of curcumin’s rapid plasma clearance and poor gut absorption, its bioavailability is relatively poor.[8] However, in a pilot crossover study, Antony et al compared the bioavailability\u003cbr\u003eof three forms of curcumin: BCM-95®, normal curcumin, and a non-controlledrelease curcumin lecithin-piperine formula. The data demonstrated that the absorption of curcumin from BCM-95 was fast, peaked at 4.5 hours with a gradual decline, and was still detectable in the blood at eight hours. The other formulas showed slower curcumin absorption with an earlier peak and rapid\u003cbr\u003edisappearance from the blood after 4.5 hours. The relative bioavailability of BCM-95 was approximately 6.93-fold higher than normal curcumin and 6.3-fold higher than the non-controlled-release curcumin-lecithin-piperine formula. According to the researchers, the results of this study indicate that the BCM-95 curcumin was “absorbed early and retained longer” compared to other forms.
