Formula Ingredient Deck

Benefits Of Each Ingredient

Vitamin C

Vitamin E

• Supports immune function, cognitive health, cardiovascular health, and bone health (204,205,206,207,208)

• Supports immune health via neutralizing free radicals and reactive oxygen species, and increased T lymphocyte-mediated immune function (204).

• Supports cardiovascular health via reduced cholesterol (204).

• Supports cognitive function via reduced oxidative stress, inflammation, and DNA damage of neuronal tissues (208).

• Enhances glucose breakdown into skeletal muscle tissue (213,214).

Magnesium

• Supports optimal nerve function, muscle contractions, cardiovascular, bone health, and decreased anxiety (90,91).

• Supports biological reactions such as ATP fueled reactions and pancreatic insulin secretion (90,91).

• Supports reduction systolic blood pressure, fasting glucose, triglycerides, and healthy HDL levels (90,91).

• Reduces peripheral cortisol levels in the CNS and supports relaxation and decreased anxiety (90,91).

Zinc

Manganese

• Supports enzymatic antioxidant reactions, increased bone mineral density, and blood sugar regulation (148,149).

Chromium

• Supports insulin function, reduced cholesterol, improved blood sugar regulation, and may lower cholesterol (218,219).

Banaba Leaf

• Supports reduced blood sugar, reduced inflammation, reduced thrombosis (clot production), reduced LDL cholesterol, and increased HDL cholesterol (237,238).
• reduces inflammation via reduction of oxides LDL (ox-LDL) which decreases the risk of developing insulin resistance (237,238).
• Combats thrombosis via reduced levels of intracellular adhesion molecules (237,238).
• Increases HDL cholesterol via increased lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase activity (an enzyme associated with HDL production) (237,238).

Guggul

• Supports healthy detoxification.

Bitter Melon

• Reduces blood sugar levels, improves insulin sensitivity, reduces inflammation, increases HDL cholesterol, reduces LDL cholesterol, and may combat carcinogenesis (235,236)
• Improves insulin sensitivity via increased glucose uptake by GLUT-4 vesicles (cells that transport glucose into cells) and improved pancreatic beta cell production of insulin (236).
•  May inhibit cancer cell growth by inducing apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, autophagy and inhibiting cancer stem cells (235).

Licorice Root

• Supports anti-inflammatory, anti-allergenic, and antimicrobial properties (177).

Cinnamon Bark

• Supports blood sugar regulation and cardiovascular health (166).

• Decreases levels of fasting plasma glucose, total cholesterol, LDL-C, triglyceride levels, and an increase in HDL-C levels (166).

• Supports blood sugar regulation by improving insulin sensitivity and enhanced glucose uptake (166).

Yarrow Flowers Powder

• Supports antioxidant function and combats inflammation (239).

• Supports antioxidant function via high contents of Apigenin (flavonoid) which scavenges free radicals and combats inflammatory cytokines (239).

Cayenne Pepper

• Combats diarrhea, cramps, and muscle inflammation (176).
• Decreases muscle soreness and increases muscle strength (177).

Juniper Berry

• Supports urinary health and antioxidant function (240).

White Mulberry Leaf

• Supports cardiovascular health, antioxidant function, and may combat cardiometabolic disease (241).
• Supports cardiovascular health via reduced blood pressure, reduced atherosclerosis activity, and reduced inflammation (241).
• Supports antioxidant function via high levels of 1-Deoxynojirimycin (DNJ), phenolics and flavonoids (241).

Vanadium/ Vanadyl Sulfate

• Supports blood sugar regulation via improved insulin sensitivity and pancreatic beta-cell function (cells that produce insulin) (227).

Alpha Lipoic Acid

• Supports immune health, cardiovascular health, blood sugar regulation, reduced body fat, and improved cognitive function (158).

• Supports blood sugar regulation via increased glucose uptake in insulin-sensitive and insulin-resistant muscle (158).

• Supports cardiovascular health via increased nitric oxide production and decreased glycation of red blood cells (decreased HA1C) (158).

• Supports cognitive function via enhanced memory, focus, and reduction of neurodegenerative disease (158).

• Supports immune health via increased free radical scavenging capabilities and increased glutathione (master antioxidant) levels (158).

L-Taurine

• Supports hydration, increased energy, antioxidant function, and increases fat metabolism during aerobic exercise (242,243).
• Supports antioxidant function via combating reactive oxygen species (243).
• Increases fat metabolism during exercise via enhanced mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation (cells using fat as fuel) (242).

Proper Use of This Supplement
