DescriptionThe glucosinolates in broccoli, including indole-3-carbinol and sulforaphane, help support healthy detoxification. BioResponse DIM provides 25 mg per serving of a highly absorbable form of diindolylmethane, an important metabolite of indole-3-carbinol. These compounds promote healthy estrogen metabolism and cell cycle activity. Calcium-D-glucarate targets beta-glucuronidase enzyme activity, promoting healthy hormone detoxification...

Description5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is an intermediate in the natural synthesis of the essential amino acid, tryptophan, to serotonin. The enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase adds a hydroxyl group (OH) to tryptophan, forming the 5-HTP intermediate. In the body, it converts to serotonin with the removal of a carboxyl group (COOH) by a second...

DescriptionCranberry concentrate provides urinary tract support without the unwanted sugar found in cranberry juice or juice cocktails. It enhances the acidity of urine and maintains a healthy urinary tract ecology. At Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, a randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled trial involving over 150 female volunteers reported positive support...

DescriptionThis formula supports healthy neurotransmitter metabolism, affecting the appetite and mood centers of the brain. 5-HTP is a precursor for serotonin, the same neurotransmitter released by the consumption of carbohydrates and associated with enhanced mood. At the same time, DL-phenylalanine supports dopamine and epinephrine production, responsible for the sensation of...

DescriptionAge-related decreases in levels of several amino acids may influence cognitive function. Amino acids are important intermediates in the production of neurotransmitters in the brain and are involved in neuromodulating activities. l-Tyrosine is an amino acid naturally synthesized in the body. It is the precursor of the neurotransmitters l-dopa, dopamine,...

DescriptionBeta-sitosterol naturally occurs as part of a phytosterol complex and has the potential to support prostate health. In a 6-month randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study with 200 male subjects, it was proposed that a mixed phytosterol complex providing beta-sitosterol supported healthy urinary flow. In an 18-month follow-up trial, beta-sitosterol maintained...

DescriptionBeta carotene is a precursor to vitamin A. It supports immune health, enhances visual acuity, and quenches free radicals. Beta carotene's antioxidant potential also supports healthy tissues and DNA integrity. As a precursor, the body converts beta carotene to vitamin A as needed.Beta carotene is one of the major dietary...
