*Supports a healthy balance of the activation and suppression of immune mediator activity, part of the body's natural inflammatory response Formulated with Dr. Sam Yanuck, D.C. Joint Optimizer is uniquely formulated to maintain the body's natural mechanisms for upregulation and downregulation of immune mediators. Cytokines and prostaglandins are chemical messengers that influence cellular activities in a variety of tissues. Maintaining healthy cytokine and prostaglandin function helps to lessen occasional pain and to sustain healthy joint mobility and comfort. In a 4-week trial organized by Dr. Yanuck, three fourths of volunteers that were supplemented with Joint Optimizer experienced positive support, including the ability to resume physical activity. Dr. Yanuck credits this with the potential of the formula to help lessen the activity of immune mediators without suppressing them completely, which would create an undesirable reaction by the immune system on musculoskeletal tissues. Joint Optimizer (Inflammation Balance Formula) is designed to maintain a healthy inflammatory response for healthy joint function and comfort.The body's natural inflammatory response is influenced by many factors, only some of which may be affected by the ingredients in this formula. Supplement Facts 2 capsules in the morning and 2 capsules in the evening, with meals, with 8–10 ounces water. two vegetable capsules

7-KETO™ DHEA
25mg - 60 caps - SRP$20.10 25mg - 120 caps - SRP$34.80 50mg - 60 caps - SRP$34.40 50mg - 120 caps - SRP$60.10 100mg - 60 caps - SRP$57.10 100mg - 120 caps - SRP$100.40 Unique DHEA metabolite 7-KETO DHEA, a safe and natural metabolite of DHEA, was the subject of research for
over a decade at the University of Wisconsin in Madison. Of over 150 DHEA compounds tested, 7-KETO proved to be the most promising
form. Researchers discovered that 7- KETO does not convert to testosterone or estrogen, minimizing androgenic activity, and
supports various physiological processes. It is several times more potent than DHEA in stimulating the thermogenic enzymes
of the liver, promotes basal metabolism, and helps to increase the lean/adipose ratio. These actions safely support a leaner
BMI (Body Mass Index) and healthy weight control. In a double-blind study involving 30 overweight adults, 7-KETO supported
healthy body composition and BMI when combined with exercise. Other patented applications include enhancing healthy immune
function and supporting memory and cognitive processes in animal studies. 7-KETO DHEA is also known as DHEA-Acetate-7-one,
3-acetoxy-androst-5-ene-7, 17-dione, or 3-acetyl-7-oxo- dehydroepiandrosterone. 7-KETO
DHEA is a versatile, patented DHEA metabolite providing metabolic, immune and memory support without converting to the sex
hormones testosterone or estrogen.
*Supports renal function and provides renal cell antioxidant protection Cordyceps sinensis is a mushroom that has been used for centuries to support glucose metabolism, vascular health and renal function. Believed to have adaptogenic and tonic properties, cordyceps has also demonstrated specific support for healthy renal tubular cell metabolism and renal tubular cell membrane function. In other studies, cordyceps supported renal function as well as healthy T-lymphocyte activity and immune function. The cordyceps used in this formula contains beta glucans, arabinoxylanes and glycoproteins and is organically grown using a proprietary growing methodology. Astragalus membranaceus and Angelica sinensis, typically in combination, have revealed the ability to support healthy immune mediator gene expression to maintain healthy renal cortex and glomerular functions. The combination may also support healthy vascular function in the kidneys by supporting nitric oxide synthesis and free radical scavenging. Curcumin and quercetin provide targeted antioxidant support for healthy renal tissue. Kidney Support Formula features cordyceps, astragalus, angelica sinensis and antioxidants to support renal health while promoting immune function and free radical protection.

*Phytosterol and polyphenol blend to support healthy lipid metabolism Over 30 randomized trials suggest that phytosterols provide statistically significant support for healthy lipid metabolism. Phytosterols maintain healthy lipid utilization in the intestines, enhance bile acid secretion, support liver receptor function and maintain healthy enzyme activity. Teaflavin® is a unique, patented green tea extract concentrated in theaflavins, generally found in small amounts in both black and green tea. Theaflavins are polyphenols with distinct health properties, including cardiovascular support. In a double blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial involving 240 men and women, Teaflavin® green tea extract provided statistically significant support for healthy lipid metabolism. In a randomized, controlled, double blind, cross-over trial, olive fruit polyphenols, including hydroxytyrosol, promoted healthy lipid metabolism and provided powerful antioxidant protection. Recent trials suggest that pomegranate, providing the polyphenol punicalagin, supports cardiovascular health and lipid metabolism, in part by maintaining vascular endothelial health and antioxidant defense. Proanthocyanidins in grape seed also promote endothelial function and healthy blood flow. Studies reveal that pterostilbene, an antioxidant found in blueberries and the Pterocarpus marsupium tree, may promote healthy receptor activity to encourage healthy lipid, triglyceride and glucose metabolism. A recent animal study revealed that the citrus bioflavonoids hesperidin and naringin maintained healthy lipid metabolism during concurrent cholesterol feeding by supporting optimal plasma antioxidant activity. Supplements containing at least 0.4 grams per serving of plant sterols, eaten twice a day with meals for a daily total intake of at least 0.8 grams, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease. A serving of Lipid Support Formula supplies 0.4 grams of plant sterols.

Now with Metafolin® L-5-MTHF The lipotropic agents choline, betaine, methionine, vitamin B6, vitamin B12 and folic acid support healthy hepatic fat metabolism and bile flow. Efficient processing and breakdown of fats in the liver maintains healthy overall liver function and detoxification. As methyl donors, these same nutrients are also critical for methylation, a widespread biochemical process in the body that involves transferring a methyl group to another compound. Methylation of DNA supports healthy DNA integrity and stability, important for liver, colon and overall cell health. These nutritional factors are also highly recognized for their ability to maintain healthy homocysteine metabolism. Taurine, curcumin, silymarin and artichoke have been added for their abilities to support healthy bile flow, gene expression and the body's normal toxin metabolism. Lipotropic Detox promotes the breakdown of fats in the liver, allowing for healthy bile flow and toxin metabolism, and supports methylation reactions for broad cellular and biological support. Supplement Facts 1–2 capsules with each meal.
R–Lipoic Acid (stabilized)60 VCaps - SRP $34.30120 VCaps
- SRP $63.40
Stabilized sodium salt of R–lipoic acid *Sodium R-alpha-lipoic acid is a highly bioavailable and stabilized form of R-lipoic acid. Regular R-lipoic acid is heat sensitive and may polymerize extensively, decreasing its absorption significantly. In real-time stability tests, sodium R-lipoic remained stable for 12 months. The natural R isomer of alpha-lipoic acid may provide enhanced antioxidant activity, energy production, and general metabolic function. In a recent in vitro study at the Buck Institute for Aging in California, R-lipoic acid moderated oxidative stress in neurons. Additional studies suggest that R-lipoic acid offers support for glucose metabolism in skeletal muscle. A University of California Berkeley study indicates that R-lipoic acid may be protective against age-related oxidative stress in the liver. Furthermore, a study at Oregon State University established a potential role for R-lipoic acid in protecting the heart from age-related oxidative stress. This provides a highly stable and bioavailable form of R-lipoic acid, with the potential for enhanced antioxidant protection and metabolic support. Supplement Facts 1–2 capsules per day, in divided doses, with meals. each vegetable capsule contains:
*Supports healthy mood, emotional wellness, behavior and memory Lithium is an essential micronutrient with some chemical properties similar to calcium and magnesium. It is present in all organs and tissues in the body. Lithium has a long history of clinical use for supporting healthy mood and behavior. Mechanisms for this involve promoting dopamine and serotonin neurotransmitter activity. Lithium also plays a role in gene expression of natural detoxification enzymes in the brain, including glutathione-s-transferase (GST). This offers important neuron antioxidant protection, which may also contribute to healthy spatial memory. Lithium may support healthy brain receptor function and brain signaling cascades to maintain healthy mental function. N- acetyl-cysteine is a precursor to glutathione, the major antioxidant in the brain, and is added to this formula for enhanced protection of brain cell membranes. Lithium is an important element that plays a significant role in healthy mental function, including mood, emotion, memory and behavior.

Lutein
20mg - 60caps - SRP$31.90 20mg - 120caps - SRP$57.70 Antioxidant and light filtering protection for healthy visual function Lutein is a carotenoid found in a vast number of fruits and vegetables. Like other carotenoids, lutein has antioxidant activity in various tissues, but is only one of two that is stored within the retina where it promotes the integrity and density of the macular pigment, a key component of ocular health. Multiple clinical studies suggest a direct relationship between lutein supplementation and macula lutein concentration. Lutein uptake reportedly occurs in the receptor layer of the eye through a soluble carotenoid- binding protein called tubulin. Clinical trials have indicated that lutein specifically supports vision health through a combination of pigment associated antioxidant protection and light screening mechanisms. Furthermore, a two-year, double blind, placebo-controlled pilot study reported that lutein may support healthy visual function in older individuals more efficiently than alpha tocopherol. Pure Encapsulations free-form Lutein is structurally similar to the lutein found naturally in spinach
and other leafy greens, providing optimal support for macular health and antioxidant support for the retina.
*High-strength carotenoid blend for macular support Lutein and zeaxanthin are the two major carotenoid pigments stored in the macula, the central part of the retina. They are believed to promote the integrity and density of the macular pigment through antioxidant properties. In addition, they help form a protective layer that filters light, maintaining healthy photoreceptor function in the macula. Increased intake of these carotenoids is associated with increased macular concentration. Numerous double blind, placebo-controlled trials indicate that lutein and zeaxanthin support the health of the optical lens as well as the retina. Additionally, recent research has revealed that the combination may target different areas in the retina to enhance total retinal health, photoreceptor health, and color vision. Lutein and zeaxanthin are unique carotenoids that specifically support the macula and overall visual function. Supplement
